How Did I Miss This?
Ross Decker
Once upon a time, there was a little boy whose parents made him come directly home right after school. There weren't a lot of movies he was allowed to see. He missed ALL the classics from the 80s and 90s. Airplane! Gremlins, The Goonies, The Breakfast Club, Back To The Future... When that boy grew up he turned out to be me, Ross Decker and now it's time to see all the movies I wasn't allowed to as a kid and find out why sometimes people say, "Be excellent to each other."

Michael Jackson's Thriller
"Due to my strong personal convictions, I wish to stress that this film in no way endorses a belief in the occult." -Michael Jackson In 1983, while the whole world was caught up in "Thriller-fever" young Ross was told to turn his back to the television at his grandfather's house. Finally, almost forty years later, Ross is getting his eyes pried open with hard plastic cat eye contact lenses and he's watching Michael Jackson's Thriller. And his best pal, Kim is leading the way.  Kim and Ross also speak at length about the hit ABC series, "Scandal" and the lovely actress, Katie Lowes, without actually mentioning her name. Just in time for Halloween. "Any similarity to actual events or characters, living, dead, (or undead) is purely coincidental."

Flashdance with Kimberly Butler-Gilkeson
Flashdance... What a feeling!  This episode was long overdue in more ways than one. We were planning for Kimberly to be a guest from before this show had a name and now she finally agreed to do it. Kimberly has a host of television, film, and Broadway credits on her IMDB but the most important will always be the one about her co-hosting this show. Kim chose the 1983 monster hit, Flashdance. And she was not wrong. Grab your leg-warmers and let's go!

Hocus Pocus with Robert Koutras
This one was a long time in the making. We've been trying to get Rob Koutras on the show for a solid year but you can only put out a Halloween episode around Halloween. So here we are. Hocus Pocus is just one of those movies. Started out as a flop, second life on DVD, and now a massive holiday tradition for Gen X and Millenials. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as the witchy Sanderson sisters. "I smell children." And yet, somehow I missed it. Rob is a super talented New York actor, singer, director, and writer. He's got a new show, "The End" coming as soon as we can get the world back to normal. So wear a mask. Stick around after the episode to hear a little taste of Rob's song Casa De Giuletta from "The End."

Life Of Brian with Ida Hakkila
Ida Hakkila is our very special guest. We go into depth right upfront about Ida's impact on my budding relationship with Cat in the mid-'90s as fresh-faced teenagers. "Practically" is the keyword. At the time, Ida was the midday DJ at the Alt-Rock giant in New York City, Q104 FM. I think we all had some mixed feelings about Life Of Brian. One of the key takeaways from this episode is to listen for how many times I say, "This is problematic." You can find Ida at www.heavylightshow.com. She's live on Radio Kingston weekdays from 3 PM to 5 PM. Enjoy!

Next up for Becca is originating a role in the new revival of the classic show, 1776.    Becca chose everyone's favorite kid movie, The Neverending Story. I have some very strong feelings about this movie. We talk about the rock-eating guy, the snail that takes drugs, that weird space dog, boobs, phallic unicorns, and much, much more. Sebastian! Please! Say my name!
