We’re kickin’ back on the porch & spending a full day in South Central with FRIDAY — the laid-back comedy that became a cultural cornerstone.

Released in 1995, starring Ice Cube & Chris Tucker, FRIDAY wasn’t expected to be a blockbuster. It didn’t have explosions, car chases or a massive budget—but what it did have was a voice, authenticity & a rhythm all its own.

We go deep into the making of FRIDAY: how Ice Cube teamed up with director F. Gary Gray to tell a story that felt real, specific & hilariously universal. We talk about the film’s shoestring budget, its lightning-in-a-bottle casting & how so much of the dialogue/humor came straight from lived experience.

We also unpack the legacy of FRIDAY, the film’s importance amongst other hood films, its influence on a generation of filmmakers & the endlessly quotable moments that still live rent-free in pop culture. Somehow FRIDAY still feels as fresh now as it did 30 years ago.

So whether you’ve seen FRIDAY a hundred times or you’re just pulling up for the first time… grab a seat, don’t get caught slippin’ & press play.

With Friday the 13th creeping up again, it felt like the perfect time to head back to Camp Crystal Lake.

In this episode, Lindsay & Justin take on the entire FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise — from the original summer camp shocker to telekinetic showdowns, red herrings, Manhattan field trips, outer space upgrades & beyond.

But before these evocative debates, we rewind to the beginning & revisit the 1980 original — the scrappy little slasher that proved a good title, a creepy camp setting, & a lot of creative kills could launch one of horror’s most unstoppable sequel machines.

The ranking of all 12 films will be revealed, favorites will be defended & sanity will be questioned throughout countless machete slayings.

The rankings are in. Friendships may not survive, but Jason Voorhees will never die.

We said we wouldn’t be back until 2026… but we were infused with the spirit of the season. When the world gets overwhelming, we turn to movies that remind us why we love them… and also why nobody’s leaving. Nobody’s walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas.

This is a full-blown, four-alarm HOLIDAY SPECIAL.

Not only are we diving into Christmas movie classics, subgenres & our personal favorites, we’re also going behind the scenes of how the beloved NATIONAL LAMPOON’S CHRISTMAS VACATION came to be. Favorite moments & quotes abound with this one!

So grab a mug, get cozy & deck the halls with the Griswold family. Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where’s the Tylenol? 🎄✨
