KEVIN???!!! Stop what you're doing! You don't want to forget this episode. We're covering the 1990 John Hughes/Chris Columbus classic Home Alone. Not just a star-making turn for Macauley Culkin, the movie features Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, Catherine O'Hara, John Heard, and John Candy. If that isn't enough, it's basically just Die Hard for kids. And you can't go wrong with Die Hard. Merry Christmas!

Put on your bowling shoes, grab your ball, and roll right into this one. We're talking Kingpin from 1996! Starring Woody Harrelson, Randy Quaid, Bill Murray, and Vanessa Angel, the second Farrelly Brothers movie may have been a gutter ball in theaters, but it was a strike to us. There's a lot to like, most notably an all-time comedic performance from Bill Murray.
A road trip movie with an odd couple relationship, Kingpin reminded us of a host of other similar movies. So in true PCY fashion we draft odd couple movies to close out the show.

1996 was a year full of great music and a time when artists were still interested in the art of making a great album from start to finish. We've chosen 16 of the best from 1996 to pit against each other in a battle to determine the best overall. Giff and Brad have called in the reserves for help voting and reminiscing. Three return guests who really know their stuff (Danaca, Craig, and Rappe) join in for the fun.
This one got long, so it's split into two parts. In Part 1, we'll discuss memories of 1996, both personal and music-related, and we'll vote our way through the first half of the bracket. Albums discussed in Part 1 include:
Semisonic - Great Divide
Soul Coughing - Irresistible Bliss
Swingers Soundtrack
Beautiful Girls Soundtrack
Fountains of Wayne - Self-Titled
Paul Westerberg - Eventually
Sheryl Crow - Self-Titled
Chris Isaak - Baja Sessions
Plus
Romeo + Juliet Soundtrack
Tin Cup Soundtrack
Beck - Odelay
Tracy Bonham - The Burdens of Being Upright

Kevin Costner was a roller coaster in the 90s: big movies, big bombs, big hits, you never knew what you were going to get. But one of favorite KC performances is 1996's Tin Cup. We love golf, we love sports movies, and we usually love us some Kevin Costner. Throw in expert sports direction from Ron Shelton and other great performances from Rene Russo, Cheech Marin, and Don Johnson, as well as a slew of golf-world cameos and you have the recipe for fun.
Speaking of fun, our draft this week is one of the most fun ones we've done. We are filling out a five-person golf team with characters that we want to play with. Whether it's for the fun they'd provide, the skills they have to help us win, or both, this draft is a hole-in-one. Tee off with us now!

Our second Spooktacular show centers on the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Giff chose this movie as he considers it the original slasher film. Is it the greatest horror movie of all-time? Is it the worst? How does it compare the big 80's slashers? Our opinions are all over the board on this one.
After answering those questions and more, we break down the horror genre into 8 sub-genres. It turns out this was kind of a fascinating way of looking at things. We discuss our favorite and least favorite categories and name drop many many movies we consider examples of each category. Listen along if you dare...

"If you ain't first, you're last." Time to rev it up and go fast. We're talking about 2006's Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.

We'll tune you up while you're in the pit stop with all best scenes and quotes.

The 80s were filled with primetime specials and very special episodes of otherwise comedic shows. We've enlisted Lindsay from Children of the 80s podcast to help us go back in time and remember these nostalgic events.
Brad's favorite (non-holiday) special growing up was Garfield in Paradise. As a fellow Garfield superfan, Lindsay is also the perfect choice to help us break down Garfield, Jon, Odie, and an angry volcano.
As if that isn't enough, we draft our favorite TV from 1986 to cap it off. This is an episode that is not only special, it's filled with nostalgia and memories for all.
