173: I'm not going back. | Born Into Exile (1997)

Some considerable time has passed since we last explored the 'movie of the week' genre on the podcast. Luckily, if we ever run out of 90s films to talk about, there are literally thousands to pull from. This is one that has really stuck with me since I was a teenager. I remember taping this from tv and cutting the commercials out so I could watch it back uninterrupted. Out of all of the films, this particular one I watched ALL the time.

I got Charles on this episode who knew nothing about it to watch it for the episode. While you think it may be a more lighthearted tale of a girl who leaves home, that is most definitely not the whole story. It gets pretty dark when this teenager is coping with how to survive on the streets with her 19 year old (eek) boyfriend/partner in crime. We talk the ins and outs of the story and just how much happens to them along the way, the holes in the story, and why we wish there was a more detailed ending to this tale.

Off-topic rants include: proper wildlife identification, forestry, and runaway teen protocol

079: What's your philosophy of life? | Kid 90 (2021)

The 90s nostalgia was heavy with this one. It's like being transported back the world of high school friends, summers in parks, and general hanging out before the days of social media. This so happens...

078: Is it just me, or did this trip go downhill since we ran out of Lucky Lager? | Kalifornia (1993)

This film was ALOT. I quickly remembered why I bought this DVD at a video store closing shop ages ago for less than $5. There were so many aspects of this film we forgot about since our recent rewatch...
