Episode Summary

 

In this crossover episode, Eric and Nick welcome two fellow Goonies super-fans to the podcast: Anthony and Matthew, hosts of the Sloth Love Chunk podcast. What started as a surprise shout-out during the Goonies 40th anniversary event quickly turned into a coast-to-coast connection between like-minded podcast adventurers.

 

The crew dives into how Anthony and Matt met in college, what sparked their obsessive love for The Goonies, and how their show came to life. It’s all about nostalgia, connection, and the magic of finding your doppelgangers—not by looks, but by vibe.

 

Naturally, Eric puts their fandom to the test with a Goonies trivia segment (because this is Discretions, after all). The result is a fun, fast-paced episode filled with stories, laughs, and deep Goonies lore.
