Congrats to Our Very Own Andy — 50-State High-Pointer!

Listeners of Movie Podcast Weekly will be well acquainted with “a guy named Andy…” He is infamous for falling asleep and snoring during podcasts, as well as choosing movies for his Top 10 lists that he has never even seen… but now Andy is also famous for being the first person from Utah to summit the highest point in each of the 50 United States of America!

In Episode 073, there’s no Andy, but we have Andy’s cat! There’s no Josh (at first), but he joins us after a few moments… There’s no requisite revisitation of the original 1987 “RoboCop” movie, but we bring you an in-depth review of the new “RoboCop” movie with special guest WILLIS WHEELER. And there’s no arguments this time about “Upstream Color,” but we have a very lively and rousing debate about the upcoming “Son of God” movie, so please weigh in by voting below on our poll question:

Welcome to a very somber episode of Movie Podcast Weekly. After hearing of the loss of Philip Seymour Hoffman and a disappointing Super Bowl, your hosts Jason Pyles and Karl Huddleston bring you an unusually pensive movie podcast. But we’ve still got some good films for you to check out. (Andy and Joshua were unable to join us this week, but they’ll return next Monday.)
