Give Me Back My... the Podcast

This Christmas the guys got invited to a holiday party by mistake but they made the best of it by saving everyone from a severe case of boredom. That's right the Facebook group voted so Charlie and Dan kinda listened as they break down the cultural icon that Die Hard became instead of a play by play of a movie everyone has seen. The guys talk about their earliest memories of seeing the movie as well as the impact it had on the action genre itself moving forward. So take off your shoes, make fists with your toes, and sit back and enjoy a holiday treat as you hide from the family this Christmas!!! P.S...... Al Leong is in this movie!!!!!! Wanna guess what Charlie rated it...you'll just have to listen!

The guys learn to be careful for what they wish for this week or else reality as they know it will cease to exist thanks to....Krampus!!!! Nate and Charlie were hopefully good little boys this year as they dig into their very first Horror Christmas episode for the podcast. Scream Factory gave us an early Christmas present in the form of 'Krampus the Naughty Cut' in UHD 4K and Blu-Ray this year and the guys couldn't wait to unwrap it and sneak a peek. So pour a big glass of eggnog and cozy up by the fire while you listen the first annual Give Me Back My Horror Movies Christmas Special!!!!

The guys bring in a very special guest this week, Jimmy from Live and in Color with Wolfie D and soon to be cohost of Give Me Back My Pro Wrestling set to debut by the end of the year. So to make him feel at home Charlie and Dan decided to cover The Condemned starring the one and only Stone Cold Steve Austin (WHAT?!)....can I get a HELL YEAH!!!! Join the guys as they dig into what makes this a fantastic homage to the action movies that preceded it in the 80s and 90s as well as dig a bit more into the beginning of WWE Studios and the impact wrestling had on us as kids...and as adults. So pull up a chair ring side and slam a couple brews as the boys drop the "Stunner" on The Condemned!!!!

This week the guys branch out of their comfort zone and sat down with two special guests that are no strangers to the podcast or the fan groups. Join Charlie and Nate as they get a spoiler free behind the scenes look straight from Director/Writer Bobby Easley and Director of Photography James Brenton of the upcoming film HP Lovecrafts The Witch House (summer 2022 release). As stated this is a spoiler free discussion and allowed us to dig more into the thought process and the early stages of development for independent film makers while also touching on non spoiler parts of the film. So sit back and enjoy Nate absolutely nailing his questions as we find out some stories that completely blew our minds as well as Charlie pointing out some highlights that our guest were blown away by the fact that we noticed. Huge thank you to everyone involved in the film and allowing us the privilege to watch it early and to be able to follow along on the journey that is independent film making!

It's time for the boys to go back home in this weeks pseudo Thanksgiving episode of Give Me Back My Action Movies.

In this weeks very special double feature presentation Dan and Charlie talk about two often forgot about action/sci-fi gems!

So find out how these movies have stood up to the test of time as well as how they stack against one another. So sit back and enjoy "double bodycounts" and two times the Al Leongs!!!!

In this weeks episode Nate picked a film that has divided the horror community since its release and Charlie was just as excited to talk about this mind twisting movie.
