• S15 Ep792: Enemy of the State

  “You got your Oscar, which was an unfortunate night for everyone…” - Steve on Will Smith On this week’s episode, we’re kicking off a two-episode tribute to the legendary Gene Hackman with a convo about the better-than-you-remember surveillance thriller, Enemy of the State! First off, this ain’t no sequel to The Conversation, let’s get that straight! But you do have an amazingly cranky and paranoid Gene Hackman running around with a nearly never-better Will Smith as they dodge Jon Voight and his stable of late-90’s Gen-X character actors! Why was the great Jason Robards uncredited? Same question for Philip Baker Hall! Why couldn’t a rocket hit Jamie Kennedy and Seth Green’s surveillance van? And how incredible is that effect shot with Jason Lee and the firetruck? PLUS: Brill interrogates the Peanuts Gang! Enemy of the State stars Will Smith, Jon Voight, Lisa Bonet, Regina King, Stuart Wilson, Barry Pepper, Ian Hart, Jake Busey, Scott Chan, Jason Lee, Gabriel Byrne, James Le Gros, Dan Butler, Jack Black, Jamie Kennedy, Bodhi Elfman, Anna Gunn, Lillo Brancato, John Capodice, Ivana Milicevic, Grant Heslov, Seth Green, Philip Baker Hall, Jason Robards, Tom Sizemore, and the late, forever great, Gene Hackman as Brill; directed by Tony Scott.

• S15 Ep791: Wish Upon

  “He is the hottest hoarder you’ve ever seen!” - Steve on Ryan Phillippe’s character On this week’s episode, the 2025 Listener Request Month comes to a close with a rowdy discussion about the ridiculously tame PG-13 horror movie, Wish Upon! Why on Earth did they care about avoiding an R rating with this fake Final Destination movie? What is with all the dumpster diving? Why couldn’t this wish box talk or be accompanied by a ghost or something? And where is literally any faculty administrator with all the bullying going down at this school? PLUS: How can one be a slut for wontons?  Wish Upon stars Joey King, Ryan Phillippe, Ki Hong Lee, Mitchell Slaggert, Shannon Purser, Sydney Park, Elisabeth Röhm, Alice Lee, and Sherilyn Fenn as Mrs. Deluca; directed by John R. Leonetti. This week’s episode is sponsored in part by Huel! New customers visit Huel.com SLASH WHM today and use our code WHM to get 15% off your first order plus a Free Gift!

• S15 Ep790: A Low Down Dirty Shame

  “Well, the action isn’t bad!” - Steve On this week’s episode, Listener Request Month continues as the guys chat about the Keenen Ivory Wayans action comedy, A Low Down Dirty Shame! Should someone else have starred as Shame if we were going to have this much dramatic acting asked of whoever got to play Shame? Couldn’t we have had a little more Sven-Ole Thorsen in this movie? Why does Shame only get the cool-guy makeover with like 20 minutes left of the movie? And how fantastic is Jada in everything, including this? PLUS: Clint Eastwood, unlikely ally for Wayman and Bernard?! Find out this summer when he stars in Supportive Grandpa! A Low Down Dirty Shame stars Keenen Ivory Wayans, Jada Pinkett Smith, Charles S. Dutton, Salli Richardson-Whitfield, Corwin Hawkins, Gary Carlos Cervantes, Gregory Sierra, Kim Wayans, Andrew Schaefer, and the great Andrew Divoff as Mendoza; directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans. Tickets are on sale now for our three-night residency during the Oxford Comedy Festival! We’ll be doing six shows over three nights from July 18 through 20, doing shows like WHM, W❤️M, The Nexus, The Gleep Glossary, and Animation Damnation!
