Episode 73: 1999 - Office Space
The Throwback Show
Office Space turns 20 in 2019, so we decided to go back to a time of TPS reports, PC load letter, Swingline staplers, Chotchkie's, Flingers and consultants named Bob. We break down the incredibly deep cast (Ron Livingston, Jennifer Aniston, David Herman, Ajay Naidu, Diedrich Bader, Stephen Root, John C. McGinley and of course Gary Cole) and hit as many of the best quotes as we can in an hour. www.thethrowbackshow.com

Episode 72: 1989 - Major League
The Throwback Show
It's a movie that has never really left our radar for 30 years, but we caught some things we didn't expect when watching it with pen and paper in hand. Join us as we spend 77 minutes with relentless stalker Jake Taylor, Wild Thing Vaughn, Pedro Cerrano, Wille Mays Hayes, Roger Dorn, Harris, Lou Brown and Harry Doyle. It's Major League, starring Tom Berenger, Charlie Sheen, Rene Russo, Dennis Haysbert, Wesley Snipes, Corbin Bernsen, James Gammon, Chelcie Ross and Bob Uecker. (Here's the link to )

Episode 71: 2004 - The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
The Throwback Show
After four years and more than 70 episodes, we finally hit our first Wes Anderson movie, and it stirred up some surprising reactions. It turns out that The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (starring Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Cate Blanchett, Anjelica Huston, Willem Dafoe and Jeff Goldblum) is a polarizing movie. Either way, it was fun to revisit this 15 years after its release — depending on who you ask. www.thethrowbackshow.com

Episode 70: 2003 - School of Rock
The Throwback Show
Aaron and Dan join Matt to revisit School of Rock (Jack Black, Joan Cusack, Mike White, directed by Richard Linklater). 15+ years later, it did not disappoint. www.thethrowbackshow.com

Episode 69: 1990 - My Blue Heaven
The Throwback Show
We're finally back with a new episode, in which we return to 1990 yet again to immerse ourselves in the world of My Blue Heaven (starring Steve Martin, Rick Moranis and Joan Cusack). For a couple of us, it's a mostly enjoyable trip down memory lane. For one of us, though, it raises a familiar question: Why? www.thethrowbackshow.com

Episode 68: 1989 - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
The Throwback Show
Aaron and Dan join Matt for a trip back to 1989, the quest for eternal life, and most importantly, a tremendous bonding opportunity for father and son. It's Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, starring Harrison Ford and Sean Connery.

Episode 67: 1988 - Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
The Throwback Show
After a lengthy summer hiatus, Aaron and Dan join Matt to break down a once-iconic summer blockbuster: Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (starring Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, Joanna Cassidy and Kathleen Turner as Jessica Rabbit). We all agree that this movie was a big deal in 1988, but disagree about how fun it actually is to watch it today. Also, Aaron was 43 minutes late for this episode and has been hit with a significant fine. www.thethrowbackshow.com

Episode 66: 1990 - Days of Thunder
The Throwback Show
Aaron and Dan join Matt for a thrilling (for some of us) trip back to 1990 and the delightfully ridiculous NASCAR movie Days of Thunder (starring Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Robert Duvall, Randy Quaid, John C. Reilly, Michael Rooker). Check out our

Episode 65: 2001 - Super Troopers
The Throwback Show
Aaron and Dan join Matt for a trip up to Vermont and a look back at Super Troopers (starring Jay Chandrasekhar, Broken Lizard and an almost impossibly good Brian Cox). We break down the movie's memorable gags (meow) and highlight our favorite quotes -- doing our best Brian Cox impersonations in the process. www.thethrowbackshow.com
info_outlineAaron Cohen and Dan Fleschner join Matt Stroup for a kidney stone-infused trip back to '96, where we bathe ourselves, once again, in the movie Swingers (Jon Favreau, Vince Vaughn, Heather Graham, directed by Doug Liman). We talk Vegas, calling cards, pixelated Wayne Gretzky, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, The Dresden and much more. Plus, a look back to the '96 World Series, which saw an agonizing (for Matt) Braves collapse against the Yankees. Also: You can check out Grantland's Oral History of Swingers right here.
