Our limited series with co-hosts Abe Epperson and David Bell digs deep into the internet meme of the “dad movie.” We can all probably name a dad movie, but can we isolate the tropes that really make this a bona fide film genre? Let’s find out!

Demolition Man hype! Also, on the subject of guile heroes, I'd like to refer y'all to perhaps the ur Dad story; The Odyssey. Odysseus is portrayed as mighty for sure, but it's his wits that allow him to overcome larger-than-life obstacles, like the cyclops, the sirens, the army of suitors etc. If you want a specific movie to reference, I'd highly recommend 1954 Ulysses, starring Kirk Douglas. The sound is a little muddy, and the special effects are very much of their time, but overall l think the movie is still an enjoyable watch~

Dave you gotta do SOME dad shit while you're in Vegas. Like. A scotch on the rocks while you give advice to a young man.

The best Mac and cheese I ever had was from a place called Rock N’ Noodles in Las Vegas. It had tangy bbq sauce coated fried chicken, pancetta, and Gruyère. The creative chef behind it went on to be the head of the Cinebarre theater restaurant. She was super cool, and she agreed to go on a date with me! It didn’t work out, but I still remember those noodles lol
