This week we're reviewing the 1991 Kevin Costner classic Robin Hood; Prince of Thieves. We'll travel back to 1194 to frantically help Costner look for his English accent. This high action darker take on Robin Hood was a global financial success earning over $390 million worldwide. Although Costner's hair and flaming arrow may have gotten you to the theater, it's Alan Rickman who steals the show as the Sheriff of Nottingham. Rickman delivers and steals every scene he's in, making you laugh the whole time. Does this movie hold up? Is Bryan Adams evil with that song? Why is the score so good?

Dave, Rob and Kurt will join Robin and his Merry Men back in Sherwood Forest on this episode to rob from the rich and steal from the poor, and please, leave the dull spoons at home

Dust off the rhinestones and fire up the jukebox, because 1980s country was where neon lights met steel guitars. The decade kicked off with outlaw grit still echoing from the 70s, but soon the airwaves filled with the polished swagger of artists like George Strait and Reba McEntire, who balanced tradition with arena-sized confidence. Bands like Alabama turned country into a crossover powerhouse, stacking harmonies as tall as their tour buses, while storytellers such as Randy Travis steered the genre back toward its roots with rich baritone ballads that felt carved from oak

At the same time, legends like Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers continued to shape the landscape, proving that authenticity never goes out of style. Sister duos like The Judds brought heart-tugging harmonies to the charts, and by the decade’s end, a young Garth Brooks was loading the launchpad for the 90s country explosion. From honky-tonk tearjerkers to glossy radio anthems, 80s country was a decade of big hooks, bigger hair, and songs that still two-step straight into your memory

Dave, Rob, and Kurt are plugging in their guitars and cranking the volume to eleven as they drop the needle on 1992’s Wayne’s World, the movie that turned public access TV into a rock-and-roll religion. From the opening Bohemian Rhapsody headbang to the immortal cry of “Party on,” this episode dives straight into the movie’s glorious chaos. They’ll revisit the birth of Wayne and Garth as big-screen icons, the perfectly dumb brilliance of the sketch-to-film jump, and how Mike Myers and Dana Carvey somehow made basement slacker energy feel heroic. Expect love for the cameos, the needle drops, the low-budget charm, and the strange magic that made Aurora, Illinois feel like the center of the universe

The guys will also tear joyfully through the endless parade of quotes, moments, and jokes that refuse to age out. Every “schwing,” every fourth-wall break, every awkward pause and sight gag gets its moment under the microscope, with plenty of laughs along the way. Is Wayne’s World the most quotable movie of the 90s, a decade already stuffed with endlessly repeated lines? Dave, Rob, and Kurt are ready to put that question on the air, rewind the tape, and see just how many lines still live rent-free in our collective brain. Party time. Excellent

Valentine’s Day is usually a parade of roses and power ballads, but Dave and Rob are taking a scenic detour through the heartbreak aisle. The 80s had a special talent for turning breakups into epic events, complete with echoing drums, pleading vocals, and choruses that felt designed for late night staring contests with the ceiling. These songs did not whisper their sadness. They announced it with synthesizers, lighters held high, and enough emotional reverb to fill an arena. Whether you were dumped, doing the dumping, or just dramatically sighing for effect, the decade made sure you had the perfect soundtrack

From Foreigner’s wounded resolve to Air Supply’s soft focus despair, the 80s breakup song was pure emotional craftsmanship. Richard Marx captured the ache of love slipping through your fingers, while Bonnie Tyler turned heartbreak into a full body experience, raspy voice and all. These were not just sad songs, they were monuments to love gone sideways, built with key changes and unapologetic sincerity. As Dave and Rob count down their favorite tear stained classics, expect a reminder that sometimes the best Valentine’s playlist is the one that lets you feel it all, preferably with the volume up and the lights low
