Throwback Thursday: Never Seen It – Highlander

Originally released: April 13, 2017


In this special Throwback Thursday episode, Paul and Robert are
joined by the legendary Doug McCoy—host of the now-retired
McCoyCast podcast network, which included shows like Never Seen
It, Crazy Creepy Cool Movies, and In the Theater. Doug also wrote
the eBook TV in My Time. While none of Doug’s past content is
currently available online, we’re thrilled to preserve this
conversation as a tribute to his fantastic contributions to the
retro podcasting world.


Inspired by Doug’s podcast Never Seen It, this episode takes the
same approach: at least one of the three of us had never seen
Highlander until prepping for the show. We discuss first
impressions, what holds up, what doesn’t, and how this cult
classic became such a defining piece of ‘80s sci-fi/fantasy
cinema.


Also in this episode:
Robert gives a concert report on Journey—with Asia as the opening
act
A round of “Play This, Not That,” featuring Simple Minds
️ And of course… swords, immortals, and Queen


There can be only one… but luckily, this podcast episode made the
cut.
