119 – I Miss You Arm Wrestling Movies (“Over the Top” and “Golden Arm”)

Last week we walked you through arm wrestling, the concept. This week, we’ll walk you through arm wrestling, the movies.  First up, Sylvester Stallone’s sweaty epic “Over the Top” where his character, an honest trucker, has to arm wrestle to win custody of his son. It’s both as silly and way more serious than that sounds. Then, we look at a recent feminist foray into the world of arm wrestling in “Golden Arm”. It’s much funnier but just as sincere. Both films are surprisingly great! And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… The two movies, Over the Top and Golden Arm! Contact us at [email protected]  Our socials facebook.com/imissyoumanpod instagram.com/imissyoumanpodtwitter.com/imissyoumanpod And you can follow this link to rate the podcast!
