    Feb 17 2025
    Break out the vintage thrift store finds and teenage angst—this week, we’re revisiting Pretty in Pink (1986)! John Hughes delivers another dose of high school drama, unrequited love, and questionable fashion choices as Molly Ringwald navigates the social divide between rich kids and outcasts. Does Duckie still steal the show? Is Blane really worth the trouble? And most importantly—does this 80s teen classic still hold up?

    Before Rambo became a one-man army with unlimited ammo, there was First Blood (1982), a surprisingly grounded thriller about a drifter, a sheriff with an attitude problem, and one very unlucky small town. We're joined by special guest Vinny Tortorella as we break down Stallone’s intense performance, Brian Dennehy’s top-tier antagonism, and whether this action classic still holds up or is just a piece of 80s nostalgia.
