The Incomparable #74: I'm Definitely Not a Girl

January 15, 2012 at 5:30pm • 60 minutes

It’s fun for the whole family, as we discuss some of our favorite movies for kids (and their parents). Did we really recommend an animated movie from Dreamworks? And a movie with Melanie Griffith? And a German fantasy film? Well, yes, but you’ll have to listen to find out which ones.

Special guests: John Siracusa & Lex Friedman

The Incomparable #41: ...But Your Kids Are Gonna Love It

May 22, 2011 at 2:00pm • 1 hour 14 minutes

Turn on your flux capacitors, calculate how many “jigabytes” your hard drive contrains, and prepare for our deconstruction of the “Back to the Future” movie series. Which film reigns supreme? Plus, we talk about other time-travel movies we love. This episode recorded entirely live in a tiny, enclosed space.

Special guests: Dan Moren, Serenity Caldwell, Lex Friedman, and Dan Frakes
