Episode 27. Goodman's Birthday Bash: Magic Mike XXL

If you're looking for a couple of male entertainers, you've found
the right podcast. It's the day we've all been waiting for, when
we officially start celebrating Goodman's Birthday Bash. And we
start this month's grind with the best grinding sequel ever,
Magic Mike XXL. A movie that, like The Matrix, you have to see
for yourself.

But before Goodman can groove to Ginuwine's Pony while Dre dreams
about Channing Tatum's Total Package, we have to make a few
COR-ERECTIONS: Dre ranks how excited he is for the rest of the
movies in December, Goodman properly identifies Jean-Claude Van
Damme's best 2 movies, then Dre corrects the name of a certain
hit Amazon Prime show.

Then we talk about what we watched this week. Dre, took the
advice of friend and listener, Adam, and watched the 1945 version
of Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the Jim Jarmusch
film, The Dead Don't Die, available on HBO Max. While Goodman got
in the stripping frame of mind with Lorene Scafaria's Hustlers
starring J-Lo and Constance Wu.

Then it's time to see if Magic Mike XXL still has some 'magic' in
that mic. We discuss the amazing plot, the amazing cast (&
cameos), the amazing dance moves, the amazing emotions, the
amaz—this movie is just amazing. And if you're up for playing a
drinking game at home, take a shot every time Goodman says
'lappers' and you'll have a blast.

We close out with a game that's truly worthy of Goodman's Failed
Screenplay Sidewalk: your co-hosts take shots brainstorming the
plot of the essential, yet hitherto unmade, third movie in the
Magic Mike franchise: Magic Mike 3: Tokyo
Kings.
Don't forget to stay for The Quote Parade where you can hear all
of the quotes we attempted but definitely butchered.

But wait, there's more! Stay tuned after the QP for even more
Magic Mike 3: Tokyo King plot points pulled directly from our
brains/asses.

Coming up next week, we discuss the movie that put Bruce
Willis on the map...of actors who have been boat cops:
Striking Distance.
