It's a HDTGM all-time classic! Howard Kremer (Who Charted?) joins Paul, June, and Jason to break down the 2000 holiday crime-thriller Reindeer Games. They sound off on Ben Affleck’s love of pecan pie, the terrible open-mouth kissing, and the bonkers Ashton Kutcher cameo. Plus, a revelation about the character names blows everyone's minds and we learn about Paul’s intimate relationship history with his mom. (Ep. #52 Originally Released 12/25/2012)

Toys w/ Drew McWeeny (Classic)
December 9, 2025
•58m
Robin Williams re-teaming with Barry Levinson, what could go wrong? Apparently, a lot! Film/culture critic Drew McWeeny joins Paul & Jason to discuss the 1992 surreal comedy Toys, where Robin Williams plays a less charming and more preachy Willy Wonka. They cover LL Cool J's interrogation, the bonkers reveal about Joan Cusack's character, and the strange tone and casting choices. Oh and don't worry, we don't forget about the sea monster!
