The Best of Times

from Exciting and New · host Jason, Andy, and Dana

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Shamus back on the show as they discuss the 1986 sports comedy The Best of Time.  In this Robin Williams led flick, he has to get the old team back together to replay a football game that his dropped pass caused his team to tie.  TIE??  This ain't soccer.  How can they develope a plot over a tie game?  Anyway, Kurt Russell is the QB and along for the ride, as we wants to capture some of the old glory too.  The casting agent for this movie must have had a hard time finding a bunch of guys in their early 30s to act as the rest of the team, since this really looks like an old timers game at some points.  Anyway, enjoy the podcast!Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1986 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983, 1984 & 1985 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing). Plus one-off specials and a weekly mini "what are we watching" podcast.#jezoo74 #aegonzo1 #danacapoferri #exciting_new
