"Does a spaceship make it sci-fi?" Come along with us for an episode that was originally recorded in January of 2021, deep in the throes of the pandemic. So, does this mean The Busy Dads are back? More will be revealed. What it DOES mean is that we had a few episodes "in the can" and there is no way we couldn't just thrust them upon the world. Join Kevin & George as we wonder on whether ET: The Extra-Terrestrial is more of a fairy tale or a science fiction movie. We take a “fly on the wall” approach to our listeners.

"That's why I had to move out of Highland Park." --George Often a monster movie comes with a level of suspension of disbelief. At times, that level can be asking too much from an audience. The movie SPRING, from film making duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorehead, is not one of those movies. The horror included doesn't ask you to check your brain at the door, nor is it too subtle or vague. It is both quiet and visceral and accomplishes these tasks while telling a very human story.

"Subby Lawrence." --Kevin What is one of the worst things a movie can do? Is it when it's just bad? Is it when it's good but could be better? Perhaps both. However, as I write this, I find myself thinking that Robert Rodriguez's ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL managed to top both of those options. It's a movie that has so many good qualities that should make it great, but just barely falls short of legendary status. Agree? Disagree?

Ep. 73: Brothers Ditching Deity Suspended Freaks
Every once in a while you come across a movie that was birthed of a fantastic idea. No one really nurtured it by giving it a huge budget or a ton of publicity, but it didn't really matter. Perhaps the lack thereof is actually what propelled the filmmakers to stay true to their vision. THE ENDLESS is such a movie. Come and check out what is sure to be a TERRIBLE podcast, based on the fact that both Kevin and George loved this movie. Despite that though, I believe we manage to get to the heart of the matter here. A thorough dissection of a great science fiction movie and a snappy back and forth between friends in which we ALL learn something about the other. And we're even wearing pants for this one, folks.

EP. 59: Not The Man From Earth Sequel (Mr. Nobody)
"That doesn't sound right. That sounds negative." "It sounds fecal." How can one movie make George go from crying during the viewing to throwing a keyboard at Kevin while discussing it the next day? How can the same movie have Kevin pontificating about the mortality of the Cyclops in the Odyssey and also begrudging Jared Leto for not looking homeless enough? How can one movie elicit such different responses from two ENTIRELY RATIONAL (I know) people!?! How?!? This is the paradox of the movie MR. NOBODY. Come and listen as the Busy Dads try and make sense out of the "unable to make sense-able". BIBLIOGRAPHY: Mr. Nobody, dir. by Jaco Van Dormiel We take a “fly on the wall” approach to our listeners. As such, some of what we discuss falls into the realm of SPOILERS. Consider yourself warned.
