Episode 128: The City of Lost Children

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/05/08

Warning: French film upcoming. It was Jesse's turn, and he picked the 1995 follow up hit to Delicatessen (see Episode 98), which was a subtitle-only film. We riffed for a long time and talked about the movie briefly, but it was good to catch up. We learn that cars are expensive, and our lives are following a parallel path. What's next?

Episode 127: Killer Klowns From Outer Space

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/04/24

You asked for it and we delivered! This kult klassic from the year of our lord (Easter reference) 1988 had us terrified but that was mostly because of the bad acting. Everything else was pretty good though. We dig deep into politics in the back half of the show and talk about Walton Goggins and what makes his look the most desirable for the upcoming summer season!

Episode 126: In Bruges

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/04/17

The boys travel to Belgium this week to take in the sights and watch their iconic film, In Bruges. An episode wouldn't be complete without technical difficulties, but they brave though and put out an action packed tight episode. Easter edition!

Episode 125: The Adventures Of Buckaroo Banzai Across...

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/04/10

The only thing longer and more confusing than the name of the film is probably the entire movie. It was insane, but there were some stand out performances, mainly from John Lithgow and Jeff Goldblum. Also the podcast hosts, Josh and Jesse, put in some work this episode, which we hope our Facebook comments appreciate.

Episode 124: Reign Of Fire

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/03/27

Double M McConaughey and Christian Bale star in this thriller about dragons that we had never heard of until an innocent conversation at work turned our worlds upside down. Dragons are so crazy man, and they were just living underground in 2008 until we accidentally woke them up, and they reached their peak in 2020 until a brave English (not Australian) man saved humanity with his strength and quick thinking? Wild times. Anyways. good podcast.

Episode 123: Midnight Run

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/03/20

Throw this one in the overrated pile. The boys fight the internet on this one but come out with a fresh outlook on podcasting and a better microphone. The 1980's were a crazy time, but did they have to put bad music over every scene? What was Danny Elfman thinking? This one was trash but we will be back with some fire next week!

Episode 122: Mississippi Burning

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/03/13

Easily one of the hardest words to spell but not one of the hardest movies to watch. Lots of commentary which could be relevant to today, which is kind of scary actually now that I write that. Another great episode to go on our top ever episodes list, to be written soon.

Episode 121: Companion

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/03/06

What happens when your sex robot goes rogue? That's a question that we struggled to answer amid our return to podcasting after two weeks off. Some technical difficulties just like old times, but we talk about hard issues like tariffs and cereals. Thanks so much for listening.

Episode 120: A Simple Plan

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/02/20

Billy Bob puts on the performance of his life, but was it enough to save this Academy Award nominated film from the 1990's? A recap of Valentine's Day, what would you do with 4.4 million dollars, and a whole lot more in this Family Day edition of the podcast!

Episode 119: A Serious Man

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/02/13

The boys tackle another Academy Award nominated film, this time the underrated gem from the Coen Brothers: A Serious Man. Some Victoria restaurant talk, an update on a sibling's career goals, and of course, more Jeopardy questions. It is a serious podcast.

Episode 118: The Straight Story

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/02/06

Just a man on his lawn mower, driving hundreds of miles to see his dying brother. What's not to love? The guys talk about a bunch of stuff and really seemed to be vibing this episode. Maybe more than normal. Good stuff!

Episode 117: The Eye of the Cat

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/01/31

Lots happening in this episode. Tea is spilled in all the best ways, crash and boom, plus they talk about a bad movie and answer two weeks worth of Jeopardy questions. We take questions from a guess and talk about getting old. Jesse can't guess the song in Josh's head.

Episode 116: Gentlemen Broncos

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/01/16

From the minds that brought you Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre, it's the 116th episode of this hit podcast. More Jeopardy, some sick rambling, and an overall fun listening experience. You'd like it, I swear!

Episode 115: Fear

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/01/11

It's another birthday episode on the pod, as one of the hosts won't shut up about how it's his birthday like we all care. Movie of the week is the 1996 cult classic Fear, where Mark Wahlberg acts his butt off and Reese Witherspoon defends her family in an all out war over love and cringey tattoos. More Jeopardy calendar questions and we answer a question from a fan! All this and more on the latest episode of Your Mother Ate My Dog!

Episode 114: Big Nothing

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2025/01/02

Not to be confused with the movie the Big Short, or Big Daddy, or even Big Fat Liar starring Frankie Muniz, Big Nothing doesn't exactly live up to the name. Which is a good thing. It's the first episode of 2025 which means we look back at 2024 and also talk about what we did for Christmas! So fun and exciting.

Episode 113: Hundreds of Beavers

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2024/12/20

It's the final episode of the year, and the boys picked a fantastic Christmas movie. It's a black and white silent film where the protagonist battles a swarm of beavers in order to win the hand of a merchant's daughter. What's not to love? They also talk about Christmas parties and apparently something happened at the potluck that we aren't supposed to talk about. Enjoy!

Episode 112: Event Horizon

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2024/12/05

The boys creep into December and they sure have a lot to talk about. Spotify wrapped is out, we aren't doing beer advent calendars, lots of time to play video games since half of the hosts are out of work, plus lots of talk about Vancouver parks and some Victoria restaurants. Very local podcast you are listening to. Plus Event Horizon!

Episode 111: Falling Down

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2024/11/28

Wow, another episode? These guys just don't quit. Somebody is grumpy and the other one is tired, and that makes for quite a reasonable discussion about race and trade, or something to that affect. Michael Douglas is married to Catherine Zeta-Jones, but they also talk about other things. Important things.

Episode 110: Dead Man

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2024/11/21

No intro for the fifth straight week and the boys spend the first twenty minutes talking about unions and strikes and the rest of the episode talking about a black and white lesser known film starring Johnny Depp. Solidarity!

Episode 109: The Talented Mr. Ripley

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2024/11/07

It's election night, it's daylight savings again, it's time for a podcast! We dig into the prequel to Saltburn and talk wind, shoes and other random stuff. Want to kill 50 minutes? Listen to our podcast!
