Jason Lee Is Doing Kickflips In Our Hearts

Ep. 119

Welcome to Bad Dad Rad Dad, where Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watch each week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they continue their unabashed Kevin Smith love, appreciate the changes in a remake, reflect on how complicated it is to be human, cry through a truly perfect movie, and try to understand the nostalgia love for a film that just doesn't do it for them.


This week’s movies are: Mallrats (1995), Night of the Living Dead (1990), Evil Does Not Exist (2023), Minari (2021), and Speed Racer (2008).
