Back to the Future Part II (Episode 098-This Podcast Takes Tokens)

from This Podcast Takes Tokens · host Deric Jennings, Ryan Jennings: A Clay Street Production

Great Scott! We are finally firing up the flux capacitor to correct a timeline error. We missed this gem back in October, so we are kicking off the new year by traveling back to 1989(where its 1985) and then to 2015, and then to 1955, to cover Back to the Future Part II.For Ryan, this trilogy is sacred ground, though he still insists Part III is the best one. For Deric, the 2015 aesthetic looks less like the future and more like "neon spray-painted garbage." Join us as we debate the "Claudia Wells vs. Elisabeth Shue" Jennifer Parker swap, give Thomas F. Wilson his long-overdue flowers for playing four different characters, and try to understand the logic of the "Chicken" insult. We also discuss why the 80s thought fax machines would be the peak of communication and answer our Retro Ramble question: What video game do you want to see adapted into a movie? (Spoiler: We have strong feelings about Metal Gear Solid).Grab your Pepsi Perfect and hoverboards—it’s time to see if this sequel hits 88 miles per hour or if it runs out of plutoniumLove quoting old movies? Join the conversation LIVE every Thursday on YouTube! Stay tuned after the show for Retro Ramble & Gum Under The Seat.👇 Support the Show & Get Swag 👇 🎧 Podcast: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/2N5V4jBFzMxq0xgzGupLAW?si=FzrMm9AARjycAEUlDQ9isQ⁠⁠ 💖 Patreon: patreon.com/ThisPodcastTakesTokens⁠ 👕 Shop: ⁠⁠https://pecantreedesign.etsy.com/listing/1850510998/this-podcast-takes-tokens 📧 Email: [email protected]#ThisPodcasTakesTokens #RetroRamble #StalePopcorn #GumUnderTheSeat #Podcast #Nostalgia #BackToTheFuture #80sSciFi #80sMovies #MartyMcFly #DocBrown #BiffTannen #JackBlack #FanCast
