    • I Was Jeff Goldblum the Entire Time (Jurassic Park): High n' Dry Episode #75
      Mar 10 2024

      Have you ever wondered if "Jurassic Park" could legitimately send shivers down your spine as a horror film? Join James and me as we raise our glasses, in honor of both Sam Neill's iconic role in the dino-epic that shaped our nightmares.

      Picture Jeff Goldblum, shirtless, amid the chaos - yup, we're talking about that scene, and so much more. The episode isn't just about paying homage; we critically examine character arcs and narrative choices that left us itching for a rewrite. Plus, our conversation isn't bound by the thematic fences of the Jurassic era; we extend a heartfelt saludo to our listeners in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, embracing the global community tuning in to share in our filmic musings and what-ifs.

      We wrap this cinematic feast with a spotlight on the exceptional range of Sam Neill, contrasting his enigmatic roles from the dinosaur-ridden islands to the gritty streets of Birmingham. Our banter is seasoned with humor and a dash of enlightened thought, promising not just an entertaining episode but one that stirs the pot of contemplation - all without the typical podcast preamble. Ready your preferred libation and settle in for a podcast episode that's as extraordinary as the tales we're toasting to. Cheers, film aficionados!

    • "Total Recall" was a Dream: High n' Dry Episode #74
      Feb 21 2024
      Ah, the 80s—when sci-fi was as much about spandex and big hair as it was about the uneasy marriage of man and machine. Even though "Total Recall" was technically 90s, we're chatting about those dystopian dreams that had us both chuckling and pondering the dark corners of tech salvation. From memory implants to gender identity and the satirical sting that Paul Verhoeven so masterfully delivers, we swing from RoboCop's beat to the intergalactic battlegrounds of Starship Troopers, all while not forgetting to tip our hats to those who navigate narratives without offending. It's a journey through the decades you won't want to miss.

      Now, folks, have you ever imagined what it'd be like if 'Total Recall' had a heart transplant, swapping brawn for emotion? Hold onto your hats as we toss around a 'what if' scenario that'll have you questioning your own life choices. And because we can't resist, we're also serving up a side of laughter with a review of this Schwarzenegger classic—stunt mishaps, Kuato's creepiness, and all. So, grab your favorite drink, find your coziest chair, and join us for a session of film critique and hypothetical hijinks that's as refreshing as an ice-cold beer on a hot Texas day.

    • Getting on the Golden Path of "Dune": High n' Dry #73
      Jan 31 2024

      Embark on a whimsical journey through time and space as we serve up a cocktail of cult classic fandom and philosophical musings in this latest adventure of the High n' Dry Podcast. Ryan Baron North and James Crosslin are your hosts, pouring a stiff one with Brothers Bond Bourbon and sprinkling some "fairy dust" cannabis for good measure. Hitch a ride to the dusty dunes of Arrakis. It's a full-on geek-out session, blending pop culture references with a side of historical oddities—did you know about that weird Texas-Oklahoma history slice?

      Strap in as we traverse the treacherous landscape of "Dune," juxtaposing David Lynch's 1984 film against its modern counterpart, and marvel at the narrative labyrinth Frank Herbert created. Expect a hearty discussion on the portrayal of women in the epic saga, the storytelling prowess (or lack thereof) of internal monologues, and a whimsical "what if" scenario that mashes up the "Dune" universe with bourbon-soaked revelry. We don't shy away from the tough critiques either, diving into the film's undercurrents of bro love, and pondering the deeper messages Herbert may have been encoding in his masterpiece.

      As our session winds down, we tease the senses with a hint of a Total Recall special that's brewing just over the horizon. We're all about engaging with our listeners, feeling the love from our YouTube family, and raising a glass to all of you across our platforms. Before the curtain falls, we tip our hats to film remakes and share a hot take on Jessica's portrayal in the newer Total Recall. It's a whirlwind of thought-provoking banter and intoxicating debate, so pull up a chair, and let's raise the bar together on this episode of the High n' Dry Podcast.
