Every two weeks Dom, Melissa, and John break down the greatest movies to punch, chop and kick. After going through the entire run of Miami Vice, we've graduated to the greatest era of action movies. Karate? You betcha. Rooftop hand-to-hand combat? You better believe it. A pommel horse right when you need it most to do gymkata!? Guaranteed. Join us as we look at all the great action movies you love.
Hey pals, summer got so busy we had to take a few weeks off. BUT, we are not leaving you without an amazing episode. This time we are going deep into the archives, all the way back to episode number 60 to reminisce over a fantastic episode of Miami Vice. Back in 2017 we reviewed Better Living Through Chemistry and after 4 years it feels good to look at it again.
So enjoy this rerun episode of your Go W...
To say we had low expectations of this movie is an understatement. However, we saw the cast, movie poster, the trailer, and we were sold!
You know we love Billy Blanks and as children of the 80s we adore Roddy Piper. Combine those two super powers together, there was no way we wouldn't stop to watch this one. Although it is the junkiest of junk food movies, we wouldn't have it any other way.
We have so much ...
We are taking a break from our standard episode to bring you a John Explains interview! We always, ALWAYS love these. There are two main reasons:
1. It gives us a chance to veer off our "season" format and discuss a movie that is just outside of our wheelhouse.
2. John brings the deep knowledge. Melissa and Dom step aside and let John get geeky with sci-fi.
This John Explains does not disappoint! In this episo...
It is well known how much we love Carl Weathers. So there was absolutely zero chance we weren't going to cover Action Jackson. One of our all-time favorite action movies that is the textbook definition of what made 80's action great. We love this movie.
We also have a lot of fun in this podcast episode! We swoon over the cast, in particular that scene of Carl all greased up, and get down on more Vanity...
This is one of our favorite karate movies… for all the wrong reasons. Coming off of a serious movie in our last episode, Tiger Claws is the exact opposite. It goes straight to Silly Town on the express train with no brakes. One thing is certain, many, many people didn’t know they were gonna be in the background of this movie.
Between the karate, slo-mo, and Jalal attempting to do his best Sonny Crockett impersonation, there is a mo...
We went into Alien Nation not knowing what to expect. All we knew is that our dad and everyone's dad loves this movie.
And did it deliver!
This was a fantastic movie (well, at least according to Dom) and hits you more in the feels than you expect. What really delivers this movie is Mandy Patinkin, but who would be surprised by that?
We also have a lot of fun with it, mostly at the expense of James Caan. There's...
Well, we only took a 1, 2...7 month break. Actually, kinda can't believe it has been that long!
But don't fret, we are back!!!!!!
This is our season 3 planning meeting for the movies we have selected plus announcing our official theme. Not a normal episode, but you get to hear all the details on how we choose our movies and how we are planning to make the show better this season.

Its all come down to this! We’ve gone through all 8 movies in this season and are ready to crown the greatest karate city. There are many to choose from, including the entire country of France. We have a lot of fun discussing some of our favorite moments and debating the best of these four categories…
– Best sidekick
– Best villain
– Biggest badass
– Greatest karate city
We would love to hear fro...
This is a once-in-a-lifetime movie. Seriously. This is as good as a karate movie gets. How do we know? Its got all the tropes. Full songs that are oddly specific to the scene? Check. Sensei beating the shit out of their own students? Check. Always doing the right thing no matter what? Just listen to the lyrics…
We absolutely adore this movie and always, ALWAYS have a ton of fun when watching and now we...
We are going to warn you up front we are not a fan of this movie. Along these lines, we say some pretty harsh things about the Chuckster and Turtle Carradine, I mean David Carradine. So if you’re gonna get your feelings hurt by us making fun of this movie, we’ll see you next week for Miami Connection.
Now with that out of the way, this is a stinker and we have so much fun Dominic stopped breathing for ...
After an unexpected vacation, we’re back with a movie we have been chomping at the bit to watch. To be honest, it was everything we hoped it would be. It was like watching an action movie dubbed by Tommy Wiseau and we have zero complaints.
We have a lot to love about Angel Town, including Jacque absolutely destroying fools. Its also the first movie where the main character is 100% optional. We only hav...
Hey pals, we had a very busy two weeks. Between our normal schedule, John on vacation, moving and then having some dental work, the next thing we knew we were out of time. So instead, we sat down and put our heads together to find a classic episode of the podcast. Something from the archives that is one of our favorites.
I guess you can say we had pasta on the brain. In this classic rerun of the show w...
In just about every episode of GWTH this season we’ve mentioned one movie. An amazing movie with John Stamos as a high schooler who suddenly learns gymkata. With John being on vacation, Melissa and Dom see this opportunity to finally discuss Never Too Young To Die. A delightfully ridiculous movie that you should definitely watch.
With a great cast, an over-the-top story and oddly specific music, you ab...
Hands down this is one of our favorite karate movies of all-time. Full stop. In this episode we literally swoon over this entire movie, beginning to end, and in our final thoughts our only complaint is that we can’t get more. Not only is it a great movie, but being produced by Motown means it has the most amazing movie soundtrack ever.
Dominic explains his love of both Sho’nuff and Richie. Melissa has a &nbs...
We go so much great feedback from our last “You Should Watch It”, we decided to make it a regular addition to the podcast. We love it because it allows us to venture deep into the archives and find classics that are just outside of our action wheelhouse.
This episode is exactly one of those situations. We don’t normally cover scifi and we’ve NEVER done a horror movie. So, why not both? Melissa and Domi...
Listen, I’m going to be totally honest with you. This movie is a stinker. Jeff Wincott is not the next star, no matter what martial arts magazine says it. BUT…
We have a TON of fun with this movie! Its so bad its good. And, to continue the honesty, this podcast episode is the best way to consume Deadly Bet. This is the best version. Also, its basically out of print so this might be the ONLY way to find...
We said the new format would give us new opportunities and we’re taking advantage of that this episode! When John mentioned that there was an action movie with a young George Clooney on jet skis, we knew there was no way we wouldn’t watch it. This episode is all about the… Honestly mediocre movie Red Surf.
This isn’t a full rundown of the movie, but just our thoughts on why you should give it a shot. S...
There was absolutely no way we were going to cover karate movies and not have a JCVD feature. If you haven’t noticed, we are HUUUUGE JCVD fans and in reality we could probably make an entire season just about his movies. The hardest part was only choosing one for this season (okay, I know we already had him in a movie, but that didn’t count).
Melissa and Dom have just finished moving across the country, but ...
