Escape The Tapes

For the 20th anniversary of this movie, we rate our favorite kills, discuss the torture porn aspect of it all; and excitedly cheer on Paris Hilton. We also try to bring logic, meaning, and additional concerns to something that was already set in stone. 

Happy two years of the podcast! Join us as we go over the ICONIC Jennifer Check, her girl Needy, the sexualization of Megan Fox, the height of power, bad people making great art, and the implications of homoeroticism once again.

We swan dive into the 2003 sequel that took the X-Men to a  blockbuster powerhouse. We’ll talk about Nightcrawler’s unforgettable White House attack, Charles being manipulated by a little boy, Jean Grey’s ominous transformation, and why this movie still holds up as one of the best superhero sequels ever.

An entire episode of Brittany's accidental one woman show devoted to the 20th anniversary of this Tim Burton classic.

Scream rip-offs showing us the absolute dumbest ways to die disguised as urban legends, tiny fun facts, and anecdotes, oh my!  

We put the pedal to the metal this week with Days of Thunder and the brand‑new F1 movie. Join us as we talk racing legends, 90s Tom Cruise energy, romantic subplots that don’t make sense, and whether we’d survive one lap in an F1 car (we wouldn’t). 

What happens when you mix Catholic guilt, red leather, and a soundtrack that screams Hot Topic 2003? You get Daredevil. This week we revisit Ben Affleck’s most cursed my lived-in role, Jennifer Garner’s Elektric nachos, and Colin Farrell’s potential forehead stamp. Confession booth’s open. Let’s talk.

Sun’s out, knives out.
We’re blending sweat and scares in this cursed cocktail of summer horror, Halloween nostalgia, and deeply unhinged seasonal confusion. Join us for Summerween—where the vibes are haunted, the outfits are questionable, and the AC better be on full blast.

Expect: slasher recs, spooky beach chaos, and enough horror tropes to summon something from the deep end.

Saddle up, folks — this week we’re diving spurs-first into Wild Wild West (1999), where cowboy hats, steam-powered nonsense, and giant robotic spiders collide in a fever dream of late-90s chaos. We unpack the camp, the cringe, the one liners, and the cinematic choices that made this movie a head-scratcher and a cult classic all in one. Plus: Kenneth Branagh’s accent, Will Smith’s charm, and saloon-style side-eyes.

This week, we're serving a double dose of patriotic chaos with two American classics- Independence Day (ID4) , and National Treasure. We're talking Jeff Goldblum's fine scientist self, the wrong Mr. Bean™️, and what patriotism means in our studio. Grab a sparkler and a Capri-Sun -- this episode has explosions, is chaotic, and is potentially monitored by the FBI.

Pack your bags and your trauma- we’re going to camp! We are joined by Weekend Forever alums Tessa and Trenton to go over the teenage slasher cult classic while also going over dubious mustaches, moral killings, and transgender by force icons. 

We have summoned a friend into the studio (and emotional trenches) to reveal our top 3 Pixar picks and an honorable mention. Mostly a fever dream with shared picks, separate languages, and laughter-induced tears. 

Tiny bugs. Big drama. Questionable accents. In this episode, we get aggressively into A Bug’s Life—Pixar’s bug-powered fever dream with many a tangent. There’s mutiny. There’s sabotage. There’s a caterpillar who fully believes he’s God’s favorite. Honestly? Same. 

Jason’s 79th birthday episode. 

Zero sleep, the grazing board of your dreams, and a movie lineup from both past and present that will make you so content with the state of your life for once. Welcome to our slumber party picks episode 📼🛌👯✨

Trench coats, daddy issues, superpowers, and a whole lot of thirst- this movie has it all. 

RETIRED??? We think not. Let’s dive into the hero who embraces the anti-hero vibe completely. 

Second installment of our “Good for Her” series with a pick by each of us (including our esteemed guest, Drew).
