1995 The PodcastLet's Be Talking About "Let's Be Cops" — A 1995 And Reality Alternative SpecialAmerica needs to laugh right now. Will they be able to with "Let's Be Cops"? Hosts from Reality Alternative and 1995 The Podcast join together (with special addition Shea) to dissect the film in what's been called "the podcast of the quarantine." 2020-04-2100 min

Leading Questions With Calvin MooreThe One with Social Distancing: Life Under Covid-19Calvin, Kent, and Steve sit down (digitally) with Kati Belz, Anthony Holden, Mackenzie Maxwell (calling from Washington), Clifford Moore (calling from Japan), Jennifer Moore, Karen Kahn-Shultz, and Clara Storm to talk about how their work has been affected by Covid-19 and social distancing, how their personal relationships are changing, and how special circumstances can be addressed. (Broadcast/Recorded March 22, 2020)2020-03-261h 45

1995 The PodcastGet ShortyIt's Karen's week, and she chose "Get Shorty" despite the fact that she's never watched it before. Karen and Greg also manage to have a long conversation about "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," in case you care about other movies they watch outside of the podcast. 2020-03-0600 min

1995 The PodcastJury DutyIt's Greg's week on the podcast, and he chose Jury Duty — a film that neither Greg or Karen has seen before. Will Pauly Shore win them over? Probably not. But at least this movie has a dog in it. 2020-02-0400 min

1995 The PodcastCluelessKaren figured that it was about time to rewatch "Clueless." Or, maybe she just wanted to see if Paul Rudd aged at all since 1995. (He didn't. ) She also confesses that she had no clue what a bong was back then, and might not fully know today. Listen in!2019-12-2100 min

1995 The PodcastHome For The HolidaysGreg chose the Holly Hunter film "Home for the Holidays" because it's festive. It also has Robert Downey Jr. in it! And he's shockingly the worst. Happy Thanksgiving. 2019-11-2200 min

1995 The PodcastThe Baby-Sitters ClubThe time has come. Karen introduces Greg to "The Baby-Sitters Club," and without spoiling too much... it's not his favorite. 2019-11-0200 min

1995 The PodcastJohnny MnemonicGreg and Karen watch "Johnny Mnemonic," which stars Keanu Reeves as a sexy data robot man. Spoiler alert: There's also a dolphin in this movie, which Greg needs to point out is not real. (And a Dolph Lundgren, who *is* real.) 2019-10-1200 min

1995 The PodcastKidsIt's actually a little hard to find a copy of the 1995 film "Kids" that doesn't cost over $40 on Amazon, but Karen and Greg made it happen. Is the movie as awful and scary as we were lead to believe back then? Is it a documentary? (The answer to the latter is no, but you'll have to listen to find out the first part.) 2019-09-1300 min

1995 The PodcastTommy BoyWelcome to the last podcast episode with Greg's old voice! Right before heading into surgery, Greg chose to watch "Tommy Boy" for the podcast. Listen in if you want to reminisce, or just hear a lot of random banter about John Cusack films. (John Cusack was not in this movie.) 2019-08-2300 min

1995 The PodcastFridayIt's episode number 23! And what better way to celebrate than with "Friday." Greg watched this movie a bunch as a kid, but for Karen, it's her first time viewing. Will she become a lifelong Ice Cube fan? Will she refrain from laughing at the name DJ Pooh? Listen in and see for yourself. 2019-07-2600 min

1995 The PodcastStuart Saves His FamilyHow could Greg assume that Karen, a noted Saturday Night Live fanatic, has never seen Stuart Saves His Family before? Probably because it was known as a box-office flop. Listen in to see if this Al Franken flick is worthy of a rewatch after all these years. 2019-07-0100 min

1995 The PodcastMallratsDespite being from New Jersey, Karen never saw "Mallrats" in its entirety, and figured the podcast was a good reason to finally watch. Meanwhile, Greg has a revelation about movies from his home state of Delaware. 2019-05-3100 min

1995 The PodcastBatman ForeverIn the 20th episode of "1995 The Podcast," Greg chooses to watch "Batman Forever," which Karen has never seen. Be prepared for a lot of spontaneous Googling, along with details regarding the resume of Marky Mark Wahlberg. 2019-05-1700 min

1995 The PodcastJumanjiAfter a lengthy break and one spontaneous back surgery, Karen and Greg have returned to chat about 1995 films. This week is "Jumanji" with the notable and wonderful Bonnie Hunt — does it live up to the hype, or is it one big disappointment? 2019-04-1900 min

1995 The PodcastCanadian BaconWe all love John Candy, right? This movie was his last theatrical release and chosen by Karen to discuss this week. Other topics discussed in this podcast include light politics, fast food, chain restaurants, and spin-off shows featuring Kevin Pollak. 2019-03-0800 min

1995 The PodcastSe7enYou might know it as "Se7en" or perhaps you recall it best as "Seven". No matter what, this Brad Pitt hit was a Greg Park favorite back in the day. Will Karen run out screaming when they show the character who represents Sloth? You have to listen to find out. 2019-02-2200 min

1995 The PodcastShowgirlsWhat happens when you're a '90s star who wants to change your image entirely? You star in the 1995 film "Showgirls" and see what happens next. Karen and Greg have both never seen the iconic film before. Will Karen be able to view "Saved By The Bell" reruns the same way afterward? Only time will tell. 2019-02-0800 min

1995 The PodcastThe Brady Bunch MovieIn a surprise choice, as it has nothing to do with spies or magicians or car chases, Greg chose "The Brady Bunch Movie" this week, which brings up a lot of fond memories for both hosts. But is it still funny today? Who knows. Listen to find out! 2019-01-2500 min

1995 The PodcastTheodore RexHappy New Year! For the first podcast of 2019, Karen forces Greg to watch this Whoopi Goldberg dinosaur detective film that was so bad, it got pulled from having a theatrical release. After watching, Greg curses a lot! Listen in and hear why (or, if) this movie is worth watching. 2019-01-1100 min

1995 The PodcastA Holiday To RememberGreg and Karen watch a made-for-TV movie starring Connie Sellecca and Randy Travis for the very first time, and boy, it's a trip. If you're a fan of Hallmark movies, this will be a very special episode for you indeed. If you're not a fan, you should watch along anyway as it's a special kind of terrible. Merry Christmas. 2018-12-2100 min

1995 The PodcastThe Usual SuspectsEven though it's much tougher to view Kevin Spacey the same way we did back in 1995, Greg chose "The Usual Suspects" as he enjoyed it a lot growing up. Karen, meanwhile, didn't even know there was a "twist" involved. Listen in, and see if she can figure it all out. 2018-12-0700 min

1995 The PodcastNow and ThenGreg and Karen watch "Now and Then" and talk about how important it is to have women-lead coming-of-age movies and safeguards around your storm drains. 2018-11-2600 min

1995 The PodcastGoldenEyeNoted James Bond Fan Greg chose GoldenEye as this week's movie, and it's tough for Karen to actually stay awake due to an experimental diet. They also talk about parental deception and broccoli, because why not? 2018-11-1600 min

1995 The PodcastBabeIn order to lighten the mood, Karen chose to watch "Babe," which Greg has never seen. Since talking animal films are much more common today, is "Babe" not as sweet as Karen imagined? And what will Greg think of the sheepdog hijinx? All of your questions will be answered, and more, in the ninth episode of 1995 The Podcast.2018-11-0200 min

1995 The PodcastLord of IllusionsGreg chooses a spooky film favorite for Halloween, and it's scary on levels Karen never expected. This also marks Karen's first Scott Bakula movie, which is exciting on a whole other level. 2018-10-2600 min

1995 The PodcastWhile You Were SleepingKaren chooses popular romcom "While You Were Sleeping" during her movie week on 1995 The Podcast, and Greg makes it painfully obvious that he's not a fan of romance or chemistry or kissing or hugs. But then, something amazing happens. Also, Karen reveals her long con. 2018-10-1900 min

1995 The PodcastDie Hard with a VengeanceThis week, Greg chose "Die Hard with a Vengeance," which he's only seen on television. Turns out, what aired on TV is completely different (and less racist) than what was shown in theaters. It's the first time Karen has watched the film altogether, but she's delighted by the cast which includes Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, and Scar from "The Lion King." As a note, Greg's mic was busted while recording. We'll make sure that doesn't happen in the future. 2018-10-1200 min

1995 The PodcastHeavyweightsKaren and Greg both watched this movie for the first time (well, kind of) with hopes that the film wouldn't dive into tired stereotypes and offensive jokes. But they should have known that personal hero Kenan Thompson would never agree to appear in anything that wasn't at least, like, 50% good. 2018-10-0500 min

1995 The PodcastThe Quick And The DeadIt's Greg's week over at 1995 The Podcast, and he chose The Quick And The Dead, a movie which flopped in theaters despite an all-star cast. Will it turn Karen off of westerns forever? Maybe. Let's find out. 2018-09-2900 min

1995 The PodcastEmpire RecordsWelcome to the third episode of 1995 The Podcast! In this episode, Karen and Greg watch Empire Records, which stars Liv Tyler and Ethan Embry. The audio, while never perfect, is a little more echoed in this episode — but it's still a worthwhile discussion. 2018-09-2100 min

1995 The PodcastMortal KombatOn episode two of 1995 The Podcast, Greg's choice is Mortal Kombat. After explaining why he went with this film, he realized how sheltered Karen really is. 2018-09-1400 min

1995 The PodcastEpisode 1: Operation Dumbo DropWelcome to 1995 The Podcast. We focus on movies that came out in 1995. Since co-hosts Karen and Greg were both quite young at the time — and most movies were deemed "good" simply because they were theatrical releases — a lot of emotions and memories spring up as these films are revisited. In the pilot episode, "Operation Dumbo Drop" is viewed. And, well, it brings up some elephant-sized thoughts. 2018-09-0700 min
