    That Thing You Do

    Late Nights at BlockbusterThat Thing You DoThis week we’re heading back to 1964 to revisit the greatest fictional one-hit wonder of all time: The Oneders (that’s O-N-E-D-E-R-S, folks).We’re talking catchy songs,terrible band names, questionable contracts and the meteoric rise and spectacular unraveling of a band that was, as one might say, too cool for school. So grab your shades, hop in this really nice camper, and enjoy the ride with Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters as we talk about That Thing You Do!And be sure to stick around for a quick bonus Tom Hanks draft at the end. Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.

    Zoolander

    Late Nights at BlockbusterYou think you’re too cool for school…but you aren’t. Our newest Late Nights at Blockbuster is celebrating the 25th anniversary of Zoolander. There are admittedly too many quotes but, as always, we don’t care. Byers poses the question, is Owen Wilson the Scottie Pippen of Hollywood? As always, we surprise each other by finding a good spiritual metaphor/illustration for a ridiculous movie. Don’t be scared when you see the runtime, we have a Ben Stiller draft to end the episode.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.

    La La Land

    Trust Me BroLa La LandHave you ever had a gap in your movie knowledge? Something that everyone saw and they always seem to talk about and you just never watched it? It’s ok, we all have those movies, we all those gaps. There is always Someone in the Crowd who hasn’t seen something. And it is with that idea in mind that we introduce a brand new type of episode on thePhileo Podcast – we call it Trust Me Bro. It’s a place for all the movies that one of us likes, that the other has never seen. And it is here where we will hash out what we liked and didn’t like, if we think the other person is crazy or if we’re grateful for another day of sun – I mean for another movie that wecan love. So welcome to the first ever Trust Me Bro episode of the Phileo Podcast, where we talk about La La Land. Intro/Outro music by friend of thepodcast Seth Gilbertson.

    Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

    Late Nights at BlockbusterFerris Bueller’s Day Off41 years ago today….Ferris Bueller took the day off….and it was the longest day in the history of the world. Not since God made the sun stand still in the sky so Joshua could defeat theAmorites has there been a longer day than June 5, 1985. And so we want to remember that day and talk about all the great things that happened, all the outdated technology that was used, and one of the most insane and inept principals of all time. So get in the car – we’ve got lunch reservations, we’ll go to an art gallery, catch a baseball game – we might even sing in a parade…all without ever getting caught.  Intro/Outro music by friend of thepodcast Seth Gilbertson.

    Late Nights at BlockbusterIf you’re not first, you’re last! Our latest Late Nights at Blockbuster is celebrating the 20th anniversary of Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. We discuss how no one actually refers to this movie by it’s official title. Buckle in for a long list of favorite quotes and scenes. It’s safe to say that we had to dig deep to find some good spiritual metaphors or illustrations for this one. Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.

The Drax winner was so easy that we had to do the runner up discussion. After we talk glowingly about how much we still enjoy the movie, we talk for a solid 15 minutes on our “Who Beefed” section. We round out the conversation with some action figure talk for those that were around our age when this came out. Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.

    X-men: First Class

    Late Nights at BlockbusterWe are celebrating the 15th anniversary of X-men: First Class this week. We gush over the direction, the way that it has aged, and all the actors (all but one). There are a couple of big plot holes/quibbles even though this is a comic book movie and we are already suspending our disbelief. Everyone breaks out as a a star after this movie so our acting categories was a little lengthy. As if we needed more evidence that we are losing our minds in our old age, we ask ourselves in the middle of the podcast if we did an X-men ranking podcast.

    Top Gun

    Late Nights at BlockbusterTop Gun We’ve got the need…the need for quoting lots of movie lines and driving a little faster when Danger Zone starts playing. Because the pattern is finally clear and so we’re coming in for much more than just a fly by as we dive deep into the 80s classic Top Gun. Byers sets a new record for times he tries to combine acting categories or make up new ones, and Troy actually contains himself on the scenes and quotes…no really we promise this is him containing himself when it comes to this movie. And eventhough Byers is not the biggest fan of this one, everything is still all good here on the Phileo Podcast, no one here has lost that loving feeling. Intro/Outro music by friend of thepodcast Seth Gilbertson.

    Late Nights at BlockbusterUnderoos! Our newest episode is a Late Nights at Blockbuster on Captain America: Civil War. For all that we love about this movie we've got a few bones to pick with whoever edited this movie and some of the story choices leave a little to be desired. However, there is a ton of our favorite scenes, lines,and action moments as this is one of our favorite Marvel movies. We are proud of ourselves for not turning it into a full Daniel Bruhl and Chadwick Boseman appreciation podcast. And we would be remiss if we didn't compare Chris Evans bicep flexing to Matthew McFadayen's hand flexing.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.

    The Fast and the Furious

    Late Nights at BlockbusterWe are celebrating the 25th anniversary of the movie that launched one of the most unexpected franchises ever, The Fast and the Furious. As you can imagine, the Drax award is very short on this one. You don't watch these movies for the dialogue. This movie also includes one of our favorite casting what-ifs, even if it is barely believable.

    Deep Thoughts on Shallow SubjectsTop 5 of 2025 PLUS top 25 of the century (so far)So we know we’re late turning in this assignment, but it’sfor a good reason – we’re really giving you 2 episodes at once – because not only did we rank our top 5 movies, tv shows and sports moments of the year – but we also ranked our top 25 movies of the first quarter century. So it was a very long assignment – and as a reward for making you wait a few extra days for this latest episode we are giving you our longest episode ever on the Phileo Podcast. That’s right we could almost drive from one of our houses to the other person’s house in the time it will take you to consume this episode. So join us as we talk about the good, the bad, the ugly and the downright bizarre of 2025, and as we gush over our favorite movies of the first quarter of the 21st century.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950)and YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos)

    Late Nights at BlockbusterPrepare to be bewitched, body and soul, as our newest Late Nights at Blockbuster is on Pride and Prejudice. Laurie comes out of retirement for her favorite book and movie, lending some feminine sensibilities to the proceedings. She can’t wait to talk about Colin Firth, even though he isn’t in this movie, and compare the Bennett’s to her own family. Laurie schools us on the subtlety of the Darcy “hand flexing” and we spend the rest of the episode making fun of it. We had a lot of the same people in our acting categories but in a lot of different places. Laurie makes it well known who her favorite Mr. Darcy is throughout.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (⁠https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950⁠)and YouTube (⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos⁠)

We discuss how this pulled Disney out of their musical slump and the lengthy development process it survived. After Tangled, we jump into our Disney Princess draft with no rules, just vibes.

    Corner Booth at Rex'sOur newest Corner Booth at Rex’s is on the newest MCU entry, Thunderbolts! Get ready for a ton of comparisons to Guardians of the Galaxy because they are warranted. Troy meanders his way through a painful example of how the Thunderbolts are like the Celtics as if he were Bill Simmons. We also spend some time on the incredible score by Son Lux, even though we forgot to mention them by name.  Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (⁠https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950⁠)and YouTube (⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos⁠)

    Despicable Me

    Late Nights at BlockbusterDespicable MeHere’s the plan. We watch the movie. We take notes on themovie. We talk about the movie. We sit on the toilet…wait what? Who did this – excuse us for just one second….ok, we’re back and we’ve got all the fart guns, the fluffy unicorns, and plenty of boogie robots for our trip to super silly fun land. We might set a new record for longest tangent within the first five minutes and we definitely vent plenty of parental angst over some of the things we endured watching with our kids.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Late Nights at BlockbusterOur newest Late Nights at Blockbuster celebrates the 10th anniversary of Avengers: Age of Ultron. We discuss why this is seen as the least of all the Avengers movies but still good in its own way. There are plenty of Stark quips to run through due to the continued presence of Joss Whedon as writer/director. We also discuss how well the it has held up by all of the movies and TV shows that build on this movie.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.

    Gladiator

    Late Nights at BlockbusterGladiatorOur names are Troy and Byers, creators of the Phileo Podcast,teammates on a 2007 rec basketball team, attempting to be loyal followers of the true King, Jesus Christ, each of us father to a teen and a preteen, husband to an embarrassed wife (if they read this), and we will talk about Gladiator, in this life and possibly the next – because it’s a really great movie, and we love it, and we definitely spent some time patting ourselves on the back for waiting this long to do it, but we just keep saying, not yet….not yet.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950)and YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos)

    Braveheart

    Late Nights at BlockbusterWhat will you do with a new Late Nights at Blockbuster? Will you fight? We are celebrating the 30th anniversary of the movie that all pastors love to quote, Braveheart! Much likeMel Gibson our Scottish accents will be going in and out when you least expect it. We also can’t stop giggling at the ridiculous names in this move so be prepared for a lot of that. We spent a little time on the historical accuracy of the movie but didn’t beat the dead horse like others have over the years. Byers takes another opportunity to trash The Banshees of Inisherin.    Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (⁠https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950⁠)and YouTube (⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos⁠)

    Fletch

    Late Nights at BlockbusterFletchWhat do a doctor, a patient, a pilot, an airplane mechanic, aprivate investigator, a roller skater, a rancher, an insurance agent, the mattress police, a reporter, and the power forward for the Lakers have in common? They’re all played by Chevy Chase in the movie Fletch – and this week we’re here to talk about all the aliases and all the jokes we didn’t get as kids that have us cackling now in this 80s classic. So order a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich, charge it to the Underhills, and have it delivered to where your mouth is going to be and join us for the 40th anniversary of Fletch, and don’t forget the ball bearings, it’s ball bearings these days.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950)and YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos)

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

    Late Nights at Blockbuster Similar to the golden snitch opening at the close, we've made it to the end of our time with the Harry Potter series. Our latest Late Nights at Blockbuster combines The Deathly Hallows Parts 1 and 2 but we managed to keep ourselves in check with a normal runtime (for us). We explain why we combined them and go through a pretty lengthy discussion on what these movies were missing compared to the books. Byers again confronts his fear of snakes and Troy tries to help him overcome that fear by renaming Nagini.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (⁠https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950⁠)and YouTube (⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos⁠)

    Memento

    Late Nights at BlockbusterMementoWe have this condition you see. It’s where we watch moviesover and over again. And then we talk about them all the time. And especially if it’s one of our absolute favorites we might talk to you about it again – you see we can’t remember if we’ve told you about it, and how great it is, and how much we like it. So we need to be sure. Because we’re sure about some things. The way the color changes, how this movie breaks your brain, and how much we enjoy the work of Christopher Nolan. But we just can’t ever be sure if we’vetold someone else about it. So here we are this week telling you all about Memento.

Grab yourself some spinach puffs and a steak cut in the shape of a trout to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this unappreciated Disney classic.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (⁠https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950⁠)and YouTube (⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos⁠)
