Podcast 223: Demolition Man

Greetings Citizens. The 3Guys have activated this approved entertainment transmission to bring you joy-joy feelings as they examine the ancient 1990s motion picture artifact known as Demolition Man. Join Don, Jon, and Ken as they engage in scholarly discourse on the noble Spartan's (Sylvester Stallone) pursuit of the chaos-generator Simon Phoenix (Wesley Snipes) through a once "perfect" society.

How many credits will they be fined for repeated violations of the verbal morality statute? Listen as they debate the shocking, unsanitary concept of “bodily fluid transfers.” Prepare for quotable exchanges, explosive kinetic engagements, and retro-action sequences of wildly inefficient tactics. Spoiler warnings are in full effect—proceed in a manner most sanitary and be well.

Podcast 222: Mad Max: Fury Road

"What a lovely day!" Strap in, wastelanders, because this week, 3 Guys and a Flick is tearing down the Fury Road with nitro-boosted fury. In this explosive episode, Don, Jon, and Ken fire up their War Rig and barrel headfirst into George Miller’s apocalyptic masterpiece: Mad Max: Fury Road.

Witness our deep-dive into a world scorched by chaos, where oil is gold, water is myth, and redemption is found at 100 miles per hour. We dissect the roaring engines of plot, the fire-breathing stunt work, and the evolution of two unstoppable forces—Furiosa (Charlize Theron) and Nux (Nicholas Hoult)—as they fight to reclaim humanity in a world gone mad.

We rev through every frame of this relentless pursuit, comparing it to the rest of the Mad Max saga, exploring how it raised the bar for modern action cinema, and why this chrome-plated epic still echoes through Valhalla.

Tune in. Gear up. And ride eternal, shiny and chrome. This isn’t just a movie review. This is a cinematic war cry.

The road awaits.

Podcast 221: Happy Gilmore

This week, the 3 Guys are trading movie reels for putters as we step onto the green with Happy Gilmore! That’s right — we’re reviewing our first-ever Adam Sandler flick and our first golf movie, all in honor of the long-awaited Happy Gilmore 2 now streaming on Netflix.

With a backswing like a hockey slapshot and an attitude as loud as his pants, Happy’s not your average golfer — and this ain’t your average sports movie. We’re breaking down all the birdies, bogeys, and beatdowns (RIP Bob Barker), plus what made this Sandler classic a hole-in-one for '90s comedy fans.

From Chubbs’ wooden hand to Shooter McGavin’s epic villainy, we’re swinging full force into the madness, the mayhem, and the movie that made “just tap it in” a generational quote.

So grab your clubs, grab your rage issues, and let’s tee off. This one’s for Grandma.

Podcast 220: Reservoir Dogs

Suit up, grab a pseudonym, and leave the real names at the door—this week, Don, John, and Ken are going full Tarantino with a deep dive into Reservoir Dogs.

In this blood-splattered breakdown, the crew slices into Quentin Tarantino’s razor-sharp debut, dissecting its unforgettable dialogue, color-coded criminals, and that infamous ear-slicing scene that made audiences squirm in '92—and still does today.

With non-linear storytelling, a soundtrack that slaps, and more tension than a warehouse standoff, the guys explore themes of loyalty, identity, and the inevitable collapse of a perfect crime.

So, whether you're Mr. Pink or Mr. Blonde, crack open a commode story and tune in—because this ain’t just a heist flick. It’s the film that kicked open the door to Tarantino’s cinematic universe.
