Cult Of Muscle!!!!!!!!

100 reps strong and we're still going!  To celebrate 100 episodes of sweat and buffoonery we called on the super friends to guide us through four heavyweight films with four heavyweight screen legends!  James and Chris from England join us for Sly Stallone's axe-clanging feel-good movie Cobra, El Goro from the majestic Talk Without Rhythm podcast gets greasy like JCVD's mullet for Hard Target, Kelly and Wes get their asses to Mars with Arnie in Total Recall, and finally Dynamo, Wolfy, and Tiny from Trick or Treat Radio join us to worship at the altar of Bruce Lee with Enter the Dragon!  Thanks to everyone who ever supported this cornball show!  This one's for you guys, whether you asked for it or not!

On the eve of the big 1-0-0 we get into some of the gnarliest displays of masculinity we've ever covered on the show.  This week we review the brain-searingly strange Dangerous Men by John S Rad and the McNamara Brothers spinkick their ways back into our hearts with Dragon Hunt!

This week Jakie's away from the mic to take a breath so our old pal Mr. Dynamo Marz from Trick or Tread Radio (one of Entertainment Weekly's top Horror podcasts!) steps up to pinch hit. He and CD-R spend several hours verbally fumbling and bumbling in an attempt to quantify what it is that makes Charles Band's Dungeonmaster aka Ragewar and George A. Romero's Knightriders either good or bad. Is it Richard Mole talking about torturing cats? Is it Ed Harris flogging himself in a pond? Could it be an evil puppet with shaved thighs?! It may just be something as simple as pendulous breasts dripping with pizza cheese but you ain't gonna know unless you strap on your armor, grab your Excalibrate and come fight the dragon with us!!!

Frankly, it's about time we spent 5 1/2 hours talking about Rocky movies. In fact, it's a damn shame that we haven't!
