We watched an extremely competent 'what if' movie. What if Bone Thugs never met Eazy-E? This movie plays that scenario out to its logical conclusion. We struggle to talk about the movie but then we pick up steam in another episode of "Ryan's sanity is unraveling and somehow Anthony is the voice of reason". For more of this, get access to our first 100 episodes by joining the supporters club here: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bodegaboxoffice--1441069/support

We're joined by Emma, the world's foremost Kilmologist for 50 Cent and Val Kilmer in 2010's GUN. It's our first time re-visiting a film (we originally covered GUN in the bad old drunk days of this pod if you want to hear it, just check it out by joining our supporters club!) and it's a special episode because we also get to talk extensively about Val Kilmer's filmography, with plenty of incredible insight thanks to our guest. Also, WE'RE SORRY ABOUT THE SONG!!!! We had such a lovely conversation, and the song we chose is a ridiculous crass 50 cent thing about crankin' it that we had ready before we even recorded. So you'll get whiplash going from the movie part of the pod to the music part, which Emma couldn't be present for. Song is secretly a banger though. Thus is the duality of this stupid podcast.Anyway, support Emma below 👇👇👇Make a donation to support Emma's zine right hereFollow Emma hereBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bodegaboxoffice--1441069/support.

Not since CHESS: The Musical has a musical blown our minds in this fashion. We watched South Boy's visionary CONFESSIONS OF A THUG starring South Boy, JT Money, Gucci Mane (?), Lady of Rage.Our first JT Money, our first Lady of Rage, and definitely our first South Boy. Strap in, this is a banger.Also we're banking episodes so Ryan can go on paternity leave, so this has references to the Drake/Kendrick beef that are mildly outdated.

(Sorry 4 Tha Wait) We watched a documentary that made us question the nature of documentaries as an art form. Well, some of us did. Sean just loves this shit.If you're looking for an earnest discussion about the Biggie and Tupac murder cases, there are probably other podcasts for you. If you're looking for a discussion about how sus documentaries are, especially in the hands of filmmakers with questionable ethics, then this one is for you!

We watched Penelope Spheeris' shelved (thanks SHARON)1999 documentary about Ozzfest '99. Is it officially part of her 'Decline of Western Civilization' documentary series? We think so. It features Black Sabbath, Slipknot, Rob Zombie, System of a Down, Fear Factory, Deftones, Primus, Slayer and many more. We get to talk Spheeris' career, and of course do a deep dive into Nu Metal.

Hoo buddy this is a smart movie!
