2 Fast 2 Forever: The Fast and Furious Podcast
Furious 7 (Lap 15)
Jordan Polan-Clarke returns to the show to talk about Furious 7 (and the narrative complexity added to the franchise by this movie)! After talking about how a Star Wars-esque scroll could work to abbreviate this film's opening, we look this film up on RunPee and wonder what Deckard has against hospitals and emergency wards. Jordan shares her favorite frame in this movie and her favorite shot in any movie. We ask: are we qualified to judge a Vin Diesel lookalike contest? Does an open road help you think? Where is Mando? We lament the women in this franchise, wonder who...

Pleasantville (1998)
We welcome Jordan Polan-Clarke back onto the show to talk about Paul Walker's ascent into stardom in Pleasantville! (This movie is a real bummer to watch right now.) We talk about the history of toilets in movies and try to parse what color represents in this movie (spoilers: we don't know because this movie doesn't know, either). We talk about Pleasantville's attempts to make a point and why it's doing something different than it thinks it is, as well as ways this movie could have been more interesting or dynamic. Joe finally finds an ally in his set dating...

Labyrinth (1986)
We're on a real roll with "child reading a book" movies this lap, and today we're talking about Labyrinth with Jordan Polan-Clarke! After Joey shares his surprising (at least to him) history with this movie, we discover we have a split opinion on David Bowie's music in this movie. We talk about Labyrinth's strong use of the color brown, discuss whether the movie and its performances are "too theater-y," and pitch an alternate version of this movie with Bowie's character in the real world. We ask: could Labyrinth be "more Jim Henson" than it is? Could we succeed in...

The Pacifier (2005)
Jordan Polan-Clarke returns to the show to talk about a movie she 100% picked, The Pacifier. After once again trying to decide where Mark Sinclair, Vin Diesel, and Dominic Toretto begin and end, we wonder whether or not The Pacifier actually caters to Vin Diesel's specific talents. Jordan re-names toddlers before questioning the level of violence on display. We talk about the weirdness of Brad Garrett's character, the wild swing this movie takes for about a minute, and Vin's demonstration of the Peter Panda Dance. Joe shares thoughts about "random children." We wonder whether or not Dom Toretto has ever...

The Fast and the Furious (Lap 11)
You son of a bitch, we're in... to Lap 11, and we're joined by Jordan Polan-Clarke to talk about The Fast and the Furious and kick off our heist lap! After brief (spoiler-free) chat about Morbius (and Tyrese's role), we visit "high school Dewey" in the newest episode of Young Rock ("In the Dark," Season 2, Episode 4) (25:55) before wondering what, exactly, Roman was busted for in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (32:45).Then, Jordan returns to the show to talk about The Fast and the Furious (49:25). She wonders, "Who's Leon?" before comparing the movie to Magic Mike and leading us in...

Get your ass over the falls and bring every hot dog topping you can think of as it's a Keanu-themed slumber party with former #KeanuClub co-hosts Joey Lewandowski (2 Fast 2 Forever) and Mike Manzi (Third Time's A Charm).

Happy Halloween and Feliz Dia de Los Muertos! For the final installment in our Women in Horror series, we're chatting about two characters who are different kind of "final girls" in 2017's Tragedy Girls.
