Episode 62 - Racing With The Moon (1984)

Oh Cagey. Why don't you just meet us in the middle? We're losing our minds just a little.Ladies and Gentlemen, could I interest you in a romance, set in the 40's, starring two star-crossed lovers (he from the working-class side of town, she from a well-to-do, upper crust family) on the verge of the young man and his best friend shipping off to war? What if I told you there was a scene where he plays piano with her? What If I told you that he's charmingly awkward and she's charmingly well-educated and charitable? What if I told you the lead actor and actress MIGHT have names that might rhyme with Schmyan Schmosming and Schmachel SchmcSchmadams? What if I told you that we'd skip the whole overdramatic Alzheimer's angle? Well, this movie wasn't that one. But it was darn close, we tell ya! Darn close! Speaking of Notebooks, the boys jotted down a few quotes and tropes after pushing their way through Nic/Sean Penn's 1984 Romantic Snoozedy "Racing With the Moon." It's Sean's movie; Nic is just playing the ne'er-do-well best bud in it. Before all that, the boys bullshoot their way through more weather, the art of being neighborly, a real-life looking glass fakeout, we check in on their diets, they give a couple reviews of much better movies, and we learn the true meaning of friendship. Hear that, Leah? Friendship! I love you guys. I'm tired. Listen up!Twitter: @WeGaugeCagePodInstagram: @WeGaugeCageAnd, as always, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts if you can or haven't already.
