Go Flix Yourself

Ben, Brad, and Nate are in 2023, and we hope you are too! We're catching up with all the movies we saw during the Chrimbo Limbo and into the New Year, from Avatar: The Way of Water to Glass Onion, and all of the Vacation movies for some reason. There's also a little tangent about Noah Baumbach movies, because a bunch of us watched his new movie White Noise on Netflix. Plus, Brad's girlfriend Brittney is here, and she's totally real! Come for the movies, stay for the [REDACTED] M&M's. Get that noise in your cranium!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are wrapping up the holiday season by not assigning each other any movies to watch, but they still have plenty of movies to talk about! Luke Starkey is back on the show for the first time in forever, and there's a tasty sponsor (or two) on the scene. Plus, we talk about our Top 10 all-time favorite films, and Ben gets a little butthurt when we take down Predator a few notches. Nate also has a little M. Night Shyamalan bracket to break down. Ring in the New Year with something new for your ear!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are back together, and they're actually in the same studio again! Brad survived the plague and spent Christmas in Connecticut, Ben has been busy but learned a thing about Little Women, and Nate knew he Better Watch Out or else he was gonna miss Christmas. (Those are the names of the movies we assigned each other!) Plus, we talk about the trailers for Barbie (HELLO DOLLY!), 65 (DINOSAURS IN SPAAAAACE!), and Oppenheimer (IT'S DA BOMB!). Finally, we talk about the recent developments regarding the future of DC Comics movies, which will soon be under new management. Jack in and hear us out! 

Is it the Black Death or the common cold? We don't know, but ol' Bradford Oman has it. Yet, like the man of principle and integrity he claims to be, he mustered enough energy to record a short episode of GO FLIX YOURSELF with Nate and Ben. 

This week, we assigned more Christmas movies to each other, including Hulk Hogan's Santa with Muscles, Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas, and Jack Frost with Michael Keaton. We also talk about the trailers for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (PETER RAMSEY, WHEREFORE ART THOU) and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (ANIMALS IN DISGUISE!) Did we need a new Transformers film? It doesn’t matter, friends, because we’re getting one!

Mask up and disinfect because Brad's sick, and prepare ye self for another installment of GO FLIX YOURSELF.

Up on the housetop, reindeer pause, out jumps Ben, Brad, and Nate, and that roof is gonna collapse. We're still talking about Christmas movies, and this time Ben experienced a Santa Claus origin story, Brad enjoyed an Italian Catholic Christmas in a rust belt town, and Nate watched Sandra Bullock lie quite a bit. We also talk about the trailers for Cocaine Bear (NO MORE HIBERNATING!), Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (BABY ROCKET!), and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (WHO YA GONNA CALL?). Plus, Brad tells everyone why The Fabelmans is great. Unfold those ear flaps and let our mouth words in!

Ben, Brad, and Nate have some more Christmas movies to talk about! Well, there's at least one full-on Christmas movie, and the other two are maybe more Christmas adjacent. They involve millions of dollars, a hitman trying to gun down Santa Claus, and a surprisingly un-befuddled Hugh Grant. Ben brought in some gutters back-up from Minnesota in the form of his friend Cory, and there may be some kind of hostile takeover in the works. Plus, we talk about the trailers for Pixar's Elemental (EARTH! FIRE! WIND! WATER! HEART!) and The Super Mario Bros. Movie (WAHOO CARES?!). Looks like those noggin caves need some sounds in them! Plug it in!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are ready to stuff your ears with some chatter about movies before you stuff yourself with turkey this week. It should come as no surprise that Ben managed to mess up his assigned movie from the previous week, but watched a different movie instead. Meanwhile, Brad and Nate did what they were supposed to do. We've got movies about poker, covert weapons, and a courtroom drama mixed with a war movie. Nate also brought his friend Andrew as a guest, and he's way better at talking about movies than Ben. But the real treat is that Brad has a surprise trailer for everyone to watch. Get your skull holes ready for the sounds of fun!

Ben, Brad, and Nate watched new movies! Brad tracked down Benicio del Toro with Tommy Lee Jones, Nate had his memory erased with Jim Carrey, and Ben cringed at Ricky Gervais. Plus, our friend Cameron Jones stopped by to talk about seeing the Indian cinema sensation RRR on the big screen. We also talk about the trailers for Avatar: The Way of Water (I SEE YOU! NOT!) and John Wick: Chapter 4 (NOT A BOOK!), but not before getting salty and sweet with this week's sponsor. There's even a quick game at the end, and you probably shouldn't expect Nate to be good at it. 

Nate, Brad, and Ben are getting in the holiday spirit. Well, almost. Brad and Nate watched the movies that they were supposed to, and they also saw Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Meanwhile, Ben was supposed to watch a movie about spirits, but he watched a completely different movie instead. Thankfully, Ben made up for it by bringing in Mike Flores as a guest, fresh off watching all the Fast and Furious movies for the first time. Plus, we talk about the trailers for the upcoming holiday movies Spirited (SCROOGE-SICAL!) and A Christmas Story Christmas (WE TRIPLE DOG DARE YOU!). Open your little head caves and turn on the computer noise!

Ben, Brad, and Nate have wrapped up Halloween movies and they're heading into the holidays! Nate gets a nice transition by watching a holiday horror movie. Brad gets inundated with violence and vulgarity with Christopher McQuarrie's directorial debut. And Ben watched Chef, but he tried to talk about Creed, and he still can't get over this whole Marvel Cinematic Universe thing. Alex Pappas is also hanging around this episode, and we talk about the trailers for The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special (MERRY DRAXMAS!) and Matilda: The Musical (NOW WITH MUSIC!). Plus, find out about our first theatrical experiences, and one of Alex's most traumatic movie memories. You got ears? Plug'em with this noise.

Ben, Brad, and Nate are wrapping up spooky season with another trio of scary assignments. Of course, Ben found a way to mess it up by not realizing he'd seen the movie he was assigned. Nate ruined it by not having fun with alligators. And Brad was given the worst movie of the batch. Happy Halloween! We also deliver a double dose of Jonathan Majors by talking about the trailers for CREED III (FIGHT HIM!) and Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania (SO TINY!), and Ben tells us how he really feels about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Finally, Nate has a fun horror trivia game for us, and a beautiful theme song for it. Pour our rich voices into the mug that is your ear!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are still getting spooky this month, and they've got a new round of horror movies they've assigned each other to prove it. Find out about our adventures with creepy houses (including Nate's haunted house), a re-animated dog, the horrors of being old, and activity of the paranormal variety. Plus, we talk about the trailers for the reboot of House Party (PARTY AT LEBRON'S!) and M3GAN (IT'S NICE TO HAVE A FRIEND!). Stick around for the end where we talk about the hardest we've ever laughed at a movie, and prepare to unleash your inner Juggalo. We're hopin' you got those ears open!

Mushroom kingdom, here we come! Ben, Brad, and Nate are eating mushrooms and going down green pipes. That might sound like the premise of a horror movie, but we're just talking about the trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie (DO YOU YIELD?!), as well as a joyous Christmas movie called Violent Night (SEASON'S BEATINGS!). But since it's still October, we're also talking about the horror movies we assigned each other, including one about a kind, loyal reader who saves her favorite author, and another about a haunted hotel room or something. I don't know. It's not very good. Oh, and Ben didn't watch his movie, because he's not very good either. Finally, how easy is it to objectively pick the greatest movie of all time? Open your ear pipes and find out!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are getting spooky with their first October episode! We're having each other watch some horror movies and thrillers, so buckle up. We're talking about killing demons with an axe, body swapping with a psychopath, and befriending an adolescent vampire. Plus, we have Brad's college buddy Jeff Spanke (who he knows through Kevin O'Shea, in case you were curious) as a virtual guest all the way from somewhere else in Indiana. He likes movies too, and we like him! We talk about the trailers for Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities (GOOSEBUMPS FOR ADULTS!) and Spoiler Alert (SOMEONE DIES!), and even play a little game. Plug this into your ears like those old red, white, and yellow cables for your TV!

Ben, Brad, and Nate just keep breezing through new (and old) movies. Everyone has actually watched their assigned movies this time. Kinda. Ben makes up for missing last week's, but he didn't accept his more recent assignment, so he's still basically messing everything up. This week, there was heartbreaking time travel, schmatlzy metaphors for life as houses, and a disaster movie that's truly a disaster. Plus, we talk about the trailers for Disney's Stranger World (SPLAT!) and They Cloned Tyrone (YOU DROPPED A BOMB ON ME, BABY!), and there's a new game at the end too!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are back, and wouldn't you know it, they've been watching movies. Well, Ben didn't watch the movie he was supposed to watch, but he says he'll make up for it on the next episode. But because of this, we're telling everybody that he loves musicals, even though he's pretty lukewarm on them in this episode. Brad and Nate still talk about their cinematic assignments, which include some pretentious zombies and The Boss. Plus, Brad has seen the controversial new Marilyn Monroe-inspired movie Blonde, and we look at the trailers for Damien Chazelle's Babylon (ALL THAT JAZZ! AND COCAINE!) and Henry Selick's stop-motion animated Wendell & Wild (KEY & PEELE ARE BACK, BABY!). Take these sounds, and fill up your head cave!

Hey! It's a bonus episode, and don't worry, it's on the house! Ben, Brad, and Nate talk about a bunch of trailers that were released during The D23 Expo, which is basically Disney's own Comic-Con. From Hocus Pocus 2 (MORE POCUS!) to The Santa Clauses (HO HO NO!), from The Little Mermaid (SUCK IT, RACISTS!) to Marvel's Werewolf by Night (SPOOKY! SCARY!), and so much more. And it wouldn't be a bonus episode without a special sponsor. Slide this one into your audio canals!

Ben, Brad, and Nate may be a little late, but this episode is great! Open the podcast gate! Don't wait! There's plenty of debate in the things we like to state about the movies we extrapolate. This is exhausting, mate! Anyway, we talk about our latest film assignments, which include monsters, zombies, mental patients, and jurors. Plus, we take a look at the trailers for Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (THERE HAS BEEN ANOTHER MURDER!) and The Fabelmans (A TASTY SPIELBERGER!). There's no game this time, but as a consolation prize, we talk about the movies that made us cry the most. How fun is that?! Pour this one into your ear deposit!

Ben, Brad, and Nate like movies. Yes they do! They like movies. How about you? Our good friend Kelli returns to the podcast after spending several years away from our nonsense. We talk about the last movies we saw, including our assignments for the week, which include a silly Hitler, a presidential romance, and Vietnam. Plus, we highlight the trailers for Confess, Fletch (MORE LIKE WRETCH!) and the upcoming dueling Pinocchio movies from Guillermo del Toro and Robert Zemeckis (ONLY ONE CAN BE A REAL BOY!). Stick around for the game and keep an ear out for Ben's jokes that stop the show dead in its tracks. 

Ben, Brad, and Nate are still watching movies like a bunch of bums. Not only did they all watch the cinematic assignments they gave each other, but they have Ben Blohm and Susan Swarner stopping by for maximum fun. We talk about the trailer for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story (WHAT A WEIRDO!), debate the value of Bullet Train, and try to deal with Nate's iceberg-sized knowledge of Titanic. Plus, there's a supremely difficult game that you'll want to listen to right until the very end. Turn on your phonograph and crank up your ears!

Ben, Brad, and Nate are recording remotely again! Sorry for the (in)convenience and audio that is more mediocre than usual. Brad's visiting his girlfriend in Utah, where there's also a delicious homemade chocolate sauce that you'll be dying to try. We talk about the trailers for The Greatest Beer Run Ever (GOOD MORNING, VIETNAM!) and Wednesday (CREEPY! KOOKY! MEH!) and dig into (most of) our assigned movies. Plus, Ben brought a game that combines movies and grammar. Neat. Receive us in your ears!

Ben, Brad and Nate still like movies a whole lot, and they're talking about the latest movies they saw, as well as the cinematic assignments they gave each other. Plus, Tim Gust is our guest, and you know he's brought salty, questionable opinions with him. We talk about the trailers for The Menu (YUMMY!) and the upcoming Disney+ Star Wars series Andor (ROGUE TWO: BUT BEFORE ROGUE ONE!). There's also a tasty sponsor and a delicious game. Put it in your ears!

Sorry for the lower audio quality here, but Nate decided to get himself Covid for a late summer treat, but Ben and Brad thought it would be nice to record remotely. It was probably a bad idea, but that's accurate for every episode we choose to record. Anyway, not only do we talk about the last movies we saw, but we also talk about the movies that we assigned each other to watch, which will probably be a fun, new recurring part of the show. Plus, we take a look at the trailer for Blonde (MARILYN MONROE IS BLONDE!) and Spirit Halloween (INSIDE A CLOSED TOYS R US!). We can't wait to make up for this episode by being in-person again next time.

PS: If you're wondering how we possibly avoided talking about Prey, it's because we recorded this before the movie hit Hulu, and you can be sure we'll talk about it plenty on the next episode.

Nate drops another bombshell on the podcast with some eyebrow-raising words about Tom Cruise. Meanwhile, Ben is pretty grumpy about Michael Myers, and Brad can't believe he has to put up with all of this. Plus, watch the trailers for Samaritan (SUPER SLY!) and Halloween Ends (EVIL DIES TONIGHT!), and we all get a special assignment for the next episode.

Ben, Brad, and Nate are bringing you a special Comic-Con episode with some of the biggest movie trailers that debuted at the San Diego convention. Mike Flores joins them to talk about the last movies they watched before digging into Trailer Mania. If you want to follow along, we watched the trailers for Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (GELATINOUS CUBE!), John Wick 4 (NUNCHAKU!), Black Adam (OH, HE'S A BIG MAN!), Shazam! Fury of the Gods (WHERE'S SINBAD?), She-Hulk: Attorney At Law (YES, WE KNOW IT'S A TV SHOW), and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (IT'S JUST AN AMAZING TRAILER, OKAY?). Plus, we play a little Marvel game. Cool? Cool. Apologies to Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

Ben, Brad, and Nate have no idea where Steve Guttenberg is, so if anyone out there can help, please let us know. Find out about the last movies we watched, hear Ben unjustly insult a screen legend, and see how Nate fares with writing his first game. Plus, we talk about the trailers for I Love My Dad (DADFISH CATFISH!), Day Shift (A JUICY STAKE!) and a new spin on The Munsters (IT JUST LOOKS AWFUL!) from visionary director Rob Zombie. Just kidding, Brad thinks Rob Zombie sucks. 

Ben, Brad and Nate are back for another episode after their blockbuster reboot raked in millions of listeners. This week, we talk about Thor: Love and Thunder with some spoilers (you've been warned!) and make far too many references to a certain groundbreaking film about flatulence. Plus, we look at the trailers for Clerks III (THEY'RE ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TODAY!) and See How They Run (OOOH! A MURDER MYSTERY!). Finally, you're gonna wanna stick around for the games portion right up to the end, because there is a shocking revelation that shakes the very foundation of this podcast and our faith in Nate Loucks.

(NOTE: Sorry about the audible breathing. Some of us are bad with microphones. We'll be better)

Crank up those ears! Ben and Brad are back, and they have a new friend! Nate Loucks joins them as a new co-host and a format that's a little more tight, but no less ridiculous. We get a little carried away with our talk about Adam Sandler. Plus, we talk about the trailers for Bros (SUPER GAY!) and Prey (IT'S THE OPPOSITE OF PREDATOR!). As always, there are a couple games, and the sponsor is a firm drink. You'll hear what we're talking about.

P.S. Still working on getting the entire library of old episodes back,  not to mention getting our iTunes profile back up and running, but it's  all coming back very soon! Thanks for your patience!

Ben and Brad are getting into the spooky season, and we've got Ben Blohm and Susan Swarner back to talk about the trailers for Last Night in Soho (SWINGING SIXTIES, BABY!), Nightmare Alley (IT'S IN TENTS!), Licorice Pizza (NO ACTUAL PIZZA!), and Ghostbusters: Afterlife (MUNCHER!). Plus, we play a little James Bond box office game with great soundtrack accompaniment by Brad, which totally ticks off Ben, but he feels better after hearing a great pitch for a Boogie Nights escape room. Enjoy!

Here's a new episode for your earholes. We've got our old pal Mike Flores back along with first-time guest Nate Loucks. We're talking about the trailers for West Side Story (JETS! SHARKS!), Moonfall (THE MOON IS FALLING!), Halloween Kills (TRICK OR TREAT!), and The Matrix Resurrections (WHOA!). Plus, we munch on some Nerds Gummy Clusters, Ben misses out on pineapple in Hawaii, and we play some movie games.

P.S. Still working on getting the entire library of old episodes back, not to mention getting our iTunes profile back up and running, but it's all coming back very soon! Thanks for your patience!

It's our first episode back in over a year, and this is just the beginning. We're getting back to recording new episodes every week, and for our return, we've got our old pals Alex Pappas and Tim Gust back for a Marvel-ous episode discussing the trailers for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Eternals, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. 

PS: Right now old episodes are not available, but we're working on reinstating them along with our old Apple Podcasts profile with all our reviews. So stick with us and we'll be back at full tilt very soon.
