Latest Episodes:

54. Jack Frost Dec 11, 2019

Show notes

With the holiday season well and truly upon us, Chris brings forth Jack Frost, the Christmas/horror movie with the murdering snowman! Oops, wait, what's that? Sorry, we're having some technical difficulties... it appears we somehow ended up with the Michael Keaton one?

53. Garfield's Thanksgiving Bonus Episode! Nov 28, 2019

Show notes

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! We've decided to celebrate by treating you to a high-quality, fresh out of the oven bonus episode. And as is traditional since last year, you're getting another Garfield holiday special, this one with many more mean-spirited Orson Welles jokes than you might expect. Enjoy the chow!

52. Commercials of the 80s and 90s vol 2 Nov 27, 2019

Show notes

In the second installment of Now We Know's award-winning series, Kevin looks back at a collection of TV commercials from his heyday back in the 1980s and 1990s. Curated for your enjoyment, complete with earworm jingles, bizarre visuals, and every now and then, a truly vexing quandary.

51. Super Mario Bros. Super Show Nov 13, 2019

Show notes

It's more than a little shocking that it's taken this long. But finally, Chris has foisted 1989's Super Mario Bros. Super Show, which managed to air its entire run of episodes in just three months, onto Kevin. Of course, Kevin saw this show as a kid himself, like any true devotee of Nintendo's iconic plumber brothers. Will you get hooked on said brothers? Let's find out!

50. Ghostbusters 2 Oct 28, 2019

Show notes

Well, would you look at that, the Now We Know boys just hit the half-century mark. And they're celebrating, in Halloween fashion, by watching one of Kevin's beloved childhood films, Ghostbusters 2. Come for the emotionally charged goo and Carpathian warlords, stay for the two bewilderingly pointless Slimer cameos.

49. Pet Sematary Two Oct 15, 2019

Show notes

One year after returning guest Jessica divulged her traumatic childhood horror movie experience to the Now We Know audience, Chris has invited her back to discuss a film he had a nearly identical experience with: Pet Sematary Two. With Jessica and Kevin's help, will Chris be able to endure this terrible fright from decades past?

48. Mel's Hole Sep 30, 2019

Show notes

Oh, Mel! This time, Chris and Kevin are joined by returning guest Miranda to discuss Mel's Hole, one of the most memorable tales of macabre mystery to ever cross the airwaves of the late conspiracy theory/paranormal radio host Art Bell. Come for the meandering, madness-inducing conversations about bottomless pits, the science of radar, and reanimated dogs, and stay for Mel's unthinkable, unspeakable, ultimate discovery.

47. Dragon Ball Z Sep 16, 2019

Show notes

This time Chris unleashes super-charged combat anime Dragon Ball Z onto Kevin, reliving the iconic first clash between series hero Goku (or Kakarot, as you may prefer) and series villain/anti-hero/eventual full-hero Vegeta. And to top it off, Chris made sure to track down the original Canadian dub that aired on Cartoon Network's Toonami block when he watched it in middle school. The dragon, in other words, will be rocked.

46. Eerie, Indiana Sep 01, 2019

Show notes

As a long, beautiful summer draws to a close, Kevin unleashes Eerie, Indiana on Chris, an ostensibly spooky kids show that aired on NBC in the early 1990s. Will child hero Marshall "Mars" Teller manage to survive the many twists, turns, and macabre happenings of the peculiar town of Eerie? Will he somehow manage to defeat a mid-level marketing scam, his romantic rival, and a conspiracy of cognitively colossal canines? Settle in and find out!

45. It (1990) Aug 19, 2019

Show notes

With a brand new movie release right around the corner, Kevin and Chris are joined by returning guest Natasha Vinik (@NatashaVinik) to discuss It, the 1990 TV miniseries adaptation of the Stephen King classic. Natasha had a particularly intense relationship with It in her youth, and she dishes all the deets for your listening pleasure.
