Episode 145 - The Blues Brothers (1980)

Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott, who this week is joined by Paul to chat about Catholic nuns, crazy Nazis, Chicago Illinois and both kinds of music; country…and western. It's 1980, it's Dan Ackroyd and John Belushi on a mission from God. Directed by John Landis with support from a whole host of musical legends….ladies and gentlemen, The Blues Brothers. "We had a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline." After his release from prison, Jake (John Belushi) reunites with his brother, Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) -- collectively known as the "Blues Brothers." Jake's first task is to save the orphanage the brothers grew up in from closing, by raising $5,000 to pay back taxes. The two are convinced they can earn the money by getting their old band back together. However, after playing several gigs and making a few enemies, including the police, the brothers face daunting odds to deliver the money on time.
