Nostalgia Killers
Sneakers #086
Season 3, Ep. 14
•
We send off one of the greats in this episode, and despite his rather extensive movie catalog, we chose a film perhaps not well known by most: 1992's Sneakers. Using the backdrop of San Francisco and the Bay Area, Robert Redford's high-rent A-Team trapses through ducts and bypasses security systems to retrieve a serious piece of hardware. Full of action and comedy and bad running, Sneakers delivers the goods that would go on to inspire Mission Impossible and Ocean's movies.
Goodbye, Robert Redford. (be bored forgery odd rot)
This movie's cocktail: Cosmo’s Cosmo (aka Pizza-tini)
2oz Parmesan and pepperoni infused vodka
4oz Tomato juice
A pinch of Basil, oregano and garlic powder
Mix the tomato juice with the herbs and spices and separately combine the vodka with a slice of pepperoni and an once of Parmesan cheese. Let both mixtures infuse overnight; be sure to filter out any particles.
Once both mixtures are ready; combine them in a shaker tin with ice; remembering that Cosmo likes his pepperoni pizza shaken not stirred.

01:21:02||Season 4, Ep. 1Maura Quint joins us again for a classic movie that we've all seen a thousand times, partly to celebrate Valentine's Day, partly to honor Rob Reiner, but mostly because we just love The Princess Bride. And for this episode's Sonic Death Monkey, we list our top 5 movies we'd like Peter Faulk to read to us when we were sick in bed. And remember: Andre the Giant says that people in masks cannot be trusted!This Movie's Cocktail: Imbibe the InconceivableOptional 2oz Tapatio Blanco tequila0.75 oz Grapefruit Juice0.5 oz Lime Juice1oz Strawberry SyrupShake all of the ingredients with frozen water, and strain into a goblet of your choice.

19. Four Rooms #091
01:34:57||Season 3, Ep. 19Rounding out our 3rd season with what we thought of as an old favorite, we lean back and take pride in what we managed to accomplish by rewatching a frantic personification of stress in 1995's Four Rooms. The Epilogue for this episode is FREE and we use it to wrap up our top 5 movies we watched this year and many more drunken rantings. Available on our Patreon and YouTube channel.

16. Grosse Pointe Blank #088
01:29:11||Season 3, Ep. 16Welcome back, Pointers! We're joined by comedy writer Maura Quint for a kind of hat-on-a-hat stacking of nostalgia to talk about 1997's Grosse Pointe Blank. Already moderately successful during its time, it has become an even stronger cult classic, and for good reason: it seems to be a nearly perfect movie. It's truly difficult to find any faults, so we simply just enjoyed watching this movie again. This Movie's Cocktail: Drawing a BlankCollins glass 1.5 oz EverClear0.5 oz Lime Juice10 oz Lime GatoradeIn a shaker with ice, mix ingredients gently, pour into a Collins glass. With any luck, the mixer makes the Everclear passable as you wipe away your fond memories of your childhood.Subscribe to us on Patreon FREE!

18. Scrooged #090
01:24:44||Season 3, Ep. 18Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone! It's not too late... to finally edit and publish the Christmas podcast. Unavoidable during the holiday season, 1988's Scrooged is a TV staple to this day, rivaled in air time only by A Christmas Story. With a wonderfully talented cast and amazing practical effects, we mull over why this just doesn't put us in the Christmas spirit any more. Be sure to check out the Epilogue on our Patreon where we discuss newer movies and films we've recently watched.

17. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles #089
01:19:05||Season 3, Ep. 17Just in time for seasonal relevance we embark on the journey of probably the most Thanksgiving movie ever made, 1987's Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. This beloved classic is so entwined in our memories that they kinda blur into each other at times, and upon closer watching there are several plot points that seem to crop up out of nowhere... as if there were large swaths of this film that we've never seen and will never see... Whelp, that's my ellipses quota for this year. Enjoy, and happy holidays from the NK crew!

13. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade #085
01:04:04||Season 3, Ep. 13Arguably the pinnacle of the Indiana Jones series of films, in this episode we revisit The Last Crusade (and one of us for the first time) as Indy tracks down his kidnapped Sean Connery and is forced to join him on his quest of the holy grail. From the golden era of film making, paying homage to the previous golden era of film making, Spielberg keeps the magic and mysticism flowing even after all these years.This Movie's Cocktail: Cup of Kings2oz Nectarine infused Charbay Vodka.5oz Lemon Juice.5oz Simple SyrupTonicHandful of fresh fruitCombine everything in a pint glass and top with tonic water.

15. The Ring #087
01:13:44||Season 3, Ep. 15Can a movie have eyes bigger than its stomach? This episode we tackle The Ring, and our haunting memories that have grown long shadows with age. Once placed on a horror pedestal and marketed to within an inch of its life, this film might not see all of us through. I don't know, though: if I handed you a VHS tape and told you it was cursed, what would race through your mind, other than where the hell am I going to find a working VCR in 2025? Would you watch it?This movie's cocktail: She Never Sleeps1.5oz Charbay Espresso Martini Liqueur0.5oz AmaroAngostura Bitters1 whole eggShake all ingredients together with ice.
