This week we’re back with part two of our Suburban Commando coverage. For regular listeners, that’s about all we need to say. Any regular listener just wants us to cut this bullcrap short, so they just get to the episode and stop just reading about it. Any regular listener already got their diagnosis: It’s Suburban Commando Fever, and they know the cure. So to them I say, stop reading right here, lie back on your cot, press Play, and relax. You’re gonna feel better in no time.

But to any new listener, first we say welcome. Secondly, a bit of background is probably in order. What you’re gonna hear on this show is a couple of velvet-voiced old pros talking into sturdy, American-made microphones about the film career of Hulk Hogan. Honestly, yes, it’s a simple concept, so simple you might wonder why nobody thought of it before. Of course, a rocket that just shoots straight up is a pretty simple idea, too, but it took a true craftsman to land it on a little grey rock we call the Moon. So in a nutshell, that’s what you’ve got here – a couple of humble craftsmen, a couple of velvet-voiced pilots about to fly you from the Earth to the Moon and back, all through the magic of podcasting. So if you’re ready, then buckle in, ‘cause you just might be in for the ride of your life.

In this episode, we also discuss birdwatching, kids and their video games, Jeff Fahey, nude scenes, swimming pools, boxing, The Rolling Stones, soap operas, The Shining, traffic, modern architecture, DOS computing, and much more, so don’t miss it.

75 - When We Move on to Suburban Commando 0

Feb 12, 2019

Well, it’s finally here. That countdown clock finally struck double-zero, and we couldn’t be more excited. We just couldn’t be more excited. A couple episodes back, we declared our Hulk Hogan hiatus at an end, and of course, that a wonderful thing. It’s just a wonderful thing. But you know what’s even better? How about when we wake up in that crisp pre-dawn air, get back behind that wheel, peel out on that long stretch of desert road, and haul ass straight at that rising sun? Yeah, we could look in that rear-view mirror, get a glimpse of that past just behind us, see all the mistakes we’ve made along the way, see that ol’ hiatus standing there with its thumb out, a forlorn hitchhiker on a long stretch of desert road. But that’s not how we operate, baby. We move in one direction and one direction only, and that’s forward. And right now, forward has us haulin’ ass on a long stretch of desert road at dawn, headed straight at that rising sun and for glories untold. And if you wanna call shotgun, all you gotta do is press play, baby.

So yes, this week we’re officially getting back to Hulk Hogan movies with our coverage of Suburban Commando. We don’t get too far into the action of the movie quite yet, but we do set the stage by discussing the movie in general, the director, the writers, the actors, the budget, the movie-inspired video game, and much more. Also, we uncover a very surprising trait about the lead character, and Clint addresses some disturbing rumors about the show. Don’t miss it.
