Reruns and Rentals
By Reruns and Rentals
Our intrepid hosts will guide you through the movies, tv shows, and games that we love (and some that feel like they were probably fever dreams). Remember "Planet Sheen"? Did you forget how dark "Brave Little Toaster" was? No matter your answer, we think this is the right podcast for you!

R&R07: "Oedipus Goof" - A Goofy Movie
The boys are back with a new take on a modern-classic Disney film. This musical from 1995 takes Mickey, Kevin, and Zack down memory lane as they recall what it was like to be a kid in the 90's. The gang reviews the touching tale of fatherhood though the prism of the lost art of Milk Men, Super Mario, Star Trek and astrology.

R&R04: "Robin Williams Is Delightful And Funny" - FernGully
The boys sit down to talk FernGully, a movie that Disney tried desperately to ruin. Talking points include the beloved Robin Williams, the environment, and Australian accents (and the lack thereof).
R&R03: "The Tinman Has A Gun" - Wizard of Oz
In this episode our hosts talk about the The Mandela effect, Phillies Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt, and starfish. It's a wild ride from start to finish as Kevin, Mickey, and Zack follow the yellow brick road of memories surrounding this classic film.
*NOTE* This podcast was recorded while we still went by our old name, so be aware of that.
*second note* It's actually the Scarecrow who has a gun.

BB12: Osmosis Jones - The Grossest, Most Poorly Timed Movie We Could Have Chosen
This week on Best Boys we watched a childhood favorite, "Osmosis Jones", and then we regretted it deeply. I bet you THINK you remember how gross this movie is, but I promise you it's way grosser than you could even imagine.
Editor's note: The audio on this one came out a little clunky. Kevin and Mickey are very gainy and Zack is very quiet. We did our best to repair the audio and hope you still enjoy the episode!!
BB11: The Phantom Menace - Now THIS is Podcasting!
That's right! We're back and better than ever! The world is on fire and we hope this helps you escape for just a little bit. We missed you. Hope you're doing well.
BB10: Transformers - "pew pew pew vroooom brrawwwghsshhh"
The boys are back in town! Join us as we return to the 2007 silver screen debut of everybody's favorite fighting robots, the Rock-Em Sock-Em Robo- sorry, what's that? Oh. Oh I see. My apologies, I have just been informed that the robots in question are, in fact, the Transformers. Apologies for the mix-up.
BB09: Jimmy Neutron - Brain Blast Boy Brain
The boys watched an early 2000's Nick classic: Jimmy Neutron! Join us for some Transformers impressions, discussions on what a jerk Jimmy is, jokes about Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, and Freud's concepts of the id, ego, superego, and the newly discovered "Super Id".
BB08: Robocop - "Robocop is my dad"
Happy Birthday Zack! We recorded this episode in early January just after Zack's birhday after it came to light that neither Kevin or Mickey had ever seen Robocop.
Starting next week we'll be back to weekly updates on Fridays!
BB07: Jingle All The Way - The Lost Christmas Episode
The boys are back after an unexpected hiatus! We hope you didn't miss us too much!

Special thanks to California Cousins for lending us their holiday tune "Christmas Morning" for our intro and outro today.
BB06: The Black Cauldron - Gurgi Has No Clout
This episode really goes off the rails as the boys expend every possible effort to avoid talking about a film none of them enjoyed.
