The Gen X Files ·

2023/09/15

It's the Beatles movie that didn't have the Beatles in it, but instead, Peter Frampton and The Bee Gees. It's a weird cult masterpiece that needs more attention. It's got Earth Wind & Fire, and Steve Martin, and Alice Cooper, and Aerosmith, and George Burns, and Stargard, and just about everyone that was even somewhat popular in the late '70s. This may be the most Gen X movie ever made. --- Support this podcast:
