After Hours (1985)

After Hours (1985)

In this episode, Big D and a very high Gene Lyons break down After Hours' absurd twists, New York's bygone grit, and whether Griffin Dunne is the last true everyman leading man. Along the way, they debate Paul's romantic prospects, the dangers of pre-cell phone nightlife, and whether David Lynch is actually a genius or just weird for weird's sake.

Join us as we uncover After Hours' hidden brilliance, discuss why Gene should never be left alone with a paper-mâché kit, and witness the power of 5mg gummies on podcasting.

Plot Summary:

What happens when Martin Scorsese trades gangsters for bagel paperweights, punk rockers, and the strangest night in SoHo history? After Hours (1985) takes us on a surreal, darkly comedic odyssey through late-night Manhattan, where a hapless word processor named Paul (Griffin Dunne) just wants to make it home—but the city has other plans.
