becoming friends with…the wraith (1986)

every time you listen to this podcast, a wraith loses another metal brace. what a thrill to be alive. join everyone’s favorite guys that talk into mics as they discuss the 1986 independent action-fantasy film the wraith. this movie is all over the place, but not nearly as much as the topics discussed in the first segment. everything from a maga christian rapper named angry abe, feelings on buffets in a post-pandemic world, colloidal silver and how only the smartest people are drinking it and dinosaurs. you won’t be believing your ears when you are listening.

Did you ever watch that movie with Fred Ward called Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins? Good for you. So did we AND we recorded us talking about it so you don’t have to.

That’s right, america’s only podcast is back and talking more meathead movies. This go around, they’re steeped in racism watching Joel Grey pull an Emma Stone four decades before that was even a thing. Isn’t science amazing? This bonkers movie is celebrating 40 years of questionable (and some just wrong) decisions. So, we are just the silly boys to talk about it.

We also talk about a bunch of other stuff, like that band Nelson, remember them? We revisited a few old student films that Rene and Byron made back around the turn of the century. And so much more…it’s more fun than anyone deserves in this economy. Enjoy it and don’t forget to like and subscribe to complete your life.

flying killer compact discs and plenty of confusion

Listen up, space cadets! This episode of Becoming Friends with... is a real trip. The aging-stoner crew fires up some high-minded chatter in the first segment, debating a confusing photo of MC Hammer and George Michael that's almost as wild as a lightbulb-shaped head. It's a journey, man.

The main event features the Dolph Lundgren classic, Dark Angel (aka I Come in Peace). The plot involves an alien-cop partnership to take down an intergalactic brain-harvesting drug dealer.

The group deconstructs this cinematic artifact through the hazy lens of modern masculinity. They reveal hidden truths and offer insightful, if not slightly off-kilter, observations. So, tune in because you won't want to miss this head trip.
