Latest Episodes:

24. Little Monsters Oct 29, 2018

Show notes

This time, Kevin and Chris are joined by special guest Miranda Everitt to discuss 1989's Little Monsters, a hybrid children's/freak-out/gross-out/coming of age comedy starring Ben Savage, Howie Mandel, and some pretty peculiar and suggestively dark themes. But fear not, your trusty friends are here to lead you through the night.

23. The House on the Borderland Oct 15, 2018

Show notes

In a Now We Know first, the boys discuss a book! And, in keeping with the October Halloween extravaganza, it's a genuine fright: William Hope Hodgson's 1908 supernatural horror forerunner The House on the Borderland, which was hugely influential on H.P. Lovecraft and Chris Tognotti alike. Steel your nerves, for ahead be pig-men!

22. Garfield's Halloween Adventure Oct 10, 2018

Show notes

In a surprise bonus episode, Now We Know continues its fright-filled month of October by looking back at Garfield's Halloween Adventure, a 1985 animated special that clearly left some marks on young Kevin's psyche.

20. 1998 NY Senate Debate Sep 16, 2018

Show notes

For the groundbreaking 20th episode of Now We Know, you'll step into a time warp, hurtling you 20 years into the past to revisit the very first time Chris watched a political debate. And, as it turns out, the in question debate have been a historic one ― you'll never find a political candidate more devastatingly on-message than New York Senator Al D'Amato.

19. Flight of the Navigator Sep 03, 2018

Show notes

Don't look now, but Paul Reubens is a spaceship and he done stole a kid! That's a brief, wholly unfair description of Disney's 1986 classic film Flight of the Navigator, which Kevin and Chris were all too eager to relive.

18. Little Nemo Aug 20, 2018

Show notes

This time Kevin and Chris are joined by a very special guest ― Bay Area stand-up comedian Natasha Vinik ― to gaze back at a childhood favorite that'd been kicking around in her head for decades. Namely, 1989's Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland, a lavishly animated film based on the groundbreaking early 20th century comic strip of the same name.

17. Coyle and Sharpe Aug 06, 2018

Show notes

This week, your humble hosts look back at a tragically unheralded pair of comedy pioneers, Jim Coyle and Mal Sharpe, better known as Coyle and Sharpe. The hilarious duo tormented and tantalized many random San Franciscans in the early 1960s with their absurdist brand of street interviews, and spoiler alert, they are timelessly great.

16. Batman Power Records Audio Drama (1975) Jul 23, 2018

Show notes

The Now We Know boys are hurled back into the world of audio drama, as Kevin brings forth a 1975 vinyl album of Batman stories produced by Power Records. You'd be hard pressed to find a more tension-free quartet of adventures for the caped crusader, as your dynamic duo quickly learned.

15. Supermarket Sweep Jul 09, 2018

Show notes

The next time you're at the checkout counter and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you could have listening to Chris and Kevin talk about Supermarket Sweep!
