A.I. EP. 77: Social Distancing Sessions - Mulan (2020) Sep 24, 2020

Show notes

Disney has created another live-action remake of one of their beloved musicals, and decided to switch things up and re-imagine the story of Mulan. It’s being streamed now on Disney +.
We knew that @JenikaMarion was a big fan of the animated musical version so we knew we had to get her on the pod to talk about this with us, and we decided since we missed her husband that @TimFoustMusic could tag along😊 These two are so much fun to talk movies with and you’ll enjoy hearing their takes on this one!
This episode ends with a fun Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Female Characters You’d Want To Have Your Back In A Fight.
We hope you’re all staying happy, healthy and safe out there and enjoying listening to our show. If you’re enjoying yourself feel free to spread the word!

A.I. EP. 76: Social Distancing Sessions - Inception 10th Anniversary Sep 17, 2020

Show notes

No, you’re not dreaming, we’ve done an episode on Inception which is celebrating it’s 10th Anniversary!
We went and got the dreamboat from The Blenders and Home Free’s Producer, Darren Rust to make his AI debut. We’ve been wanting to get him on the podcast and this just happens to be one of his favorite films, so it worked out!
Our dream within a dream was a fun movie game Buegs made up called The Starting 5 and one layer deeper our Patrons get to hear us battle it out during our Top 5 Favorite Movie Dream Sequences Draft.
We hope you’re all staying happy, healthy and safe out there!
Sweet Dreams!

A.I. EP. 75: The Blues Brothers 40th Anniversary Sep 10, 2020

Show notes

The Blues Brothers just had it’s 40th Anniversary!!! We had to get the band back together to celebrate it, so we got a couple of returning guests and longtime friends for both of us, Benny Elledge and Dan Ristrom! We don’t know anyone else who loves this movie more than these two and they had us laughing throughout the entire episode with their hilarious takes and the various titles of fictional sex tapes.
We concluded things with a very fun Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear our Top 5 Favorite Movie Cameos, which was *SPOILER ALERT* too much fun!
Thanks for the support, if you’re enjoying yourselves and want some more perks become a Patron over at patreon.com/theavidindoorsmen. Another thing that would help us out is if you could take 1 minute to rate and review us favorably.
We hope you’re staying happy, healthy and safe out there. Enjoy!

Movie Game Night - VOICEPLAY! Sep 03, 2020

Show notes

It’s been a while since we’ve done a Movie Game Night so we got one of our favorite A Cappella groups to come on and play some games with us: VOICEPLAY!
We chatted about life with no shows, how they’re still rocking the YouTube game and most importantly, played some super entertaining games.
The Voiceplay guys are such a good time and don’t forget to check out Rob’s collaboration with them on their ACA TOP 10 Movie Medley.
ENJOY!

A.I. EP. 74: Social Distancing Sessions - Clueless 25th Anniversary Aug 27, 2020

Show notes

You didn’t think we’d do a Clueless 25th Anniversary episode? AS IF! We had to talk about this iconic 90’s take on the classic Jane Austen story, Emma.
We got Rob’s best friend from Kindergarten to come back on to the pod, Tim St.Sauver. He had some super funny takes on Cher and Dionne and the rest of the Clueless gang.
This episode ended with an Imitation Game and our Patrons get to listen to us battle it out during our Top 5 90’s Teen Films Draft. It was a great time and if you’re not a Patron you should really consider joining our Indoorsy community!
Hope you’re all staying healthy and safe and enjoying these Social Distancing Sessions. Clueless is currently on Netflix if you are looking for something fun to watch!

A.I. EP. 73: Social Distancing Sessions - Caddyshack 40th Anniversary Aug 20, 2020

Show notes

“He’s a Cinderella story. A former assistant groundskeeper about to become the Masters champion...” This quote and every other quote from Caddyshack have been told and retold by all of our Dads for 40 years now! So we got that going for us, which is nice.
We had to find a couple guys who love this movie as much as we do and didn’t have to look very far. Turns out the two guys who helped us get this podcast up and running, Luke Pierce and Ben Haley from Works Entertainment know this movie inside and out. It was entertaining hearing their thoughts and trivia they know about this 40 year old classic.
We ended this episode with a newer movie game Buegs came up with called The Starting 5 and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Favorite Films featuring Rich People We Love To Hate.
Hope you are staying healthy and safe out there and enjoying our podcast.

A.I. EP. 72: Social Distancing Sessions - Palm Springs Aug 13, 2020

Show notes

We were so excited to talk about the new film released on HULU featuring Andy Samberg and Cristin Miliotti, Palm Springs.
Both Nate Stone and Seggie Isho saw Palm Springs before The Avid Indoorsmen and raved about it so much that it inspired us to watch it and decide to do an episode on it. Since they inspired us to check this out initially, we thought it was only right to have them on and give us their hot takes. SPOILER ALERT: It was a super good time.
We ended this episode with an Imitation Game and our Patrons get to hear us draft our Top 5 Films with a City in the Title! If you’re not a patron of ours, get on it!
We hope you all enjoy checking out some new cinema even though we’re not getting any in the theaters for a while. This can tide you over until we can get back to the big screen.
Stay healthy and safe out there!

A.I. EP. 71: Social Distancing Sessions - The Color Purple 35th Anniversary Aug 06, 2020

Show notes

Having it’s 35th Anniversary is the Steven Spielberg film based on Alice Walker’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Color Purple.
As you will find out by listening to this episode, both of the Avid Indoorsmen had never seen this 11 time Academy Award nominated film, but it happened to be one of our guest’s favorite movies ever, the one and only Emoni Wilkins! We were looking for an excuse to bring Emoni onto the podcast and when she mentioned The Color Purple was a film she adored and we saw it was on Hulu and celebrating an anniversary, it was too good to pass up!
We had such a good time hearing Emoni’s thoughts on this classic and we ended the episode by playing a super fun game of Last Man Stanton. Our Patrons can listen to us draft our Top 5 Favorite Films with a Color in the Title.
We’re hoping you are all staying healthy and safe out there and you’re enjoying the podcast. Please rate and review if you haven’t done so already, it would really help us out.
Enjoy!

A.I. EP. 70: Social Distancing Sessions - The Mighty Ducks Jul 30, 2020

Show notes

Quack...Quack...Quack...Quack..Quack..Quack.Quack.QuackQuackQuack!
That’s right, this episode will focus on the Minnesota hockey classic, The Mighty Ducks.
We had to get the full flock together to create that triple deke, so we got our buddy and Hollywood actor, J. Michael Trautmann! He has a close connection to this film and we had a blast hanging out with him, hearing his hilarious takes.
This episode ends with a new game that Buegs came up with called The Starting 5 and our Patrons get to hear us battle it out over our Top 5 Favorite Films Set In Minnesota.
You can watch The Mighty Ducks on Disney+ as we keep plugging along with our Social Distancing Sessions. We hope you’re staying healthy and safe out there!

A.I. EP. 69: Social Distancing Sessions - Hamilton Jul 23, 2020

Show notes

We heard that Disney + was releasing a filmed version of the live theatrical production of Hamilton and we were not throwing away our shot…we had to do it.
Jenika Marion and Neil Ghosh were on the Zoom where it happened, and it was super fun geeking out to this musical theater phenomenon with them. Neil made his AI debut and he fit right in, Jenika has been on so many times and is a fan favorite and always a delight.
Toward the end of the episode we decided to talk less and smile more and played a fun Imitation game and then our Patrons get to hear us duel it out in our Top 5 Favorite Movie Musicals Draft.
We hope you enjoy this musical episode and you are staying safe and healthy out there.
