For today's episode we explore the upcoming 40th anniversary of the ultimate 80's-babysitter-musical-fantasy film.

June is Banned Book Month, so this year we are joined by our friend and librarian Shauna to discuss S.E. Hinton's novel about Greasers, Socs, switchblades, rumbles, Cherry, sunsets, and their tuff, tuff hair.

Yeah, yeah, we're talking about Rogue One again. Cassian said we had to.But this time we dug up some fresh, alternate angles and deep-dives that managed to broaden our already sky-high opinion of the film.Today's root beer is Goldmine.Intro and Outro music by Stockmusic331 on Pond5Send us Fan Mail

Pizza! Movie! Root Beer! Oh my!Today we got some Detroit-style pizza, half a gallon of A&W Root Beer on tap, and watched the best Spielberg-directed film that was actually directed by JJ Abrams.

From Takashi Tateishi’s 8-bit powerhouse score in Mega Man II and Nobuo Uematsu’s mystical Final Fantasy melodies, to Michael Giacchino’s cinematic brilliance in the Medal of Honor series—we love video games, we love music, and together they set the perfect mood for nostalgia and adventure!Today's root beer is Rocket Fizz's Root Beer Float.Intro and Outro music by Stockmusic331 on Pond5Send us Fan Mail

Today we dive into the classic hero trope and pay homage to our high school mascot! Gallantry, chivalry, and bravery, yes…. but “shining” armor? What use is that?! Should be battle worn and dented, a map of every narrow escape and hard-won victory.Today's root beer is Oak Creek Blonde. Intro and Outro music by Stockmusic331 on Pond5Send us Fan Mail

Yet another in our project to watch every Star Wars movie in order, this week it was Han Solo's origin story. We've been saying for a while that we need more non-Anakin Star Wars stories, and this one fits the bill adequately.

One of the first films to let teenagers portray themselves with their own voice, address stereotypes, peer pressure, adult expectations, and the reality that we're not very different, regardless of who we are.Today's root beer is Dr. Brown's.Intro and Outro music by Stockmusic331 on Pond5Send us Fan Mail

This week we listened to and discussed Queen's make-or-break album that shot them into the stratosphere. The album has a little bit of everything, including vitriolic lyrics, vaudevillian ragtime, epic poems, bright love songs, and something called Bohemian Rhapsody….. whatever that's supposed to be.Today we drank Reading Draft White Birch Beer.
