EP71 - Demolition Man (1993)
from Retro Guardians · host Dartalic Productions
Today we thaw out the 1993 sci-fi action gem, "Demolition Man." Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes transport us to a sanitized future where crime is nearly extinct, but so is real human connection. When the villainous Simon Phoenix is set loose in this pacifist 2032, there's only one man for the job: John Spartan, a cop from the past with a penchant for destruction. We'll delve into the film's quirky predictions for the future, its satirical jabs at society's trajectory, and the epic clashes between its leading men. Plus, the ever-present question: How DO those three seashells work? Grab a Taco Bell feast (the only restaurant that survived the franchise wars) and join us for a deep dive into "Demolition Man!"
