Talking Wrestling & Iron Claw Review
Turk & Raz engage in detail analysis and discussion of their fondness for the wacky world of professional wrestling. From the time we first discovered it, the best historical moments (How did watching Wrestlemaina 2 lead to Raz destorying his parents TV), and to this day why does Wrestling still have a strangle on the cultural zeitgeist?! We also then discuss 'The Iron Claw', a film which delves into the tragic story of the Von Erich family. It's an emotionally haunting film that is going to stick with you for a while, especially if you don't know the history? Director Sean Durkin crafts an unfathomably tragic story and tells it with needed grace and tenderness. Zac Efron gives his best performance to date as the eldest living brother - seeing the loss and tragedy through his eyes is touching and heart breaking all at the same time. The supporting cast is flawless, except for the person who portrayed Ric Flair. A broom in the closet could of given a way better performance, just saying. The Iron Claw is a beautiful gut-wrenching film -- telling a tragic story of brotherhood, love, pain, expectations, favouritism, and legacy. We both found ourselves heartbroken by the tragedies portrayed on screen, yet incredibly moved by the brotherhood these characters shared. We are not promised tomorrow. Make sure to hold your loved ones close! Thanks for listening!

DREAMCAST: We Pick Our Replacements To Run Lucasfilm
Welcome to Dream Cast! A Place where we fan cast everything and anything we love about pop culture. Whether it is a movie, a sequel to a movie, a character we want to see in a movie. It could be anything. It could be an actor and actress you always wished acted together in a movie. Or it could be one of your favorite directors you wished directed a movie of your choosing. What if Francis Ford Coppola directed Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Or James Cameron direct Spiderman? Is there a favorite video game, or novel you always hoped to see adapted to the big screen. The sky is the limit when it comes to Dream Cast.
In this episode we pick our preferred replacements to run Lucasfilm. One thing most Star Wars can agree on is - Kathleen Kennedy needs to go. In fact, the whole creative team needs to go as well. Join us in the fun as we break it all down for the only way Turk & Raz can! Thanks for Watching

Ahsoka Aftermath Show Ep. 5 & 6 Review
We are back with our Ahsoka Aftermath deep dive discussion covering Episodes five and six. In part 5: Shadow Warrior - Ahsoka finds herself in the World Between Worlds where she comes face to face with her old master for one last lesson. Can Ahsoka leave the past behind her and become something more? Or will she stay forever grey? Then in part 6: Far, Far Way - we take a larger step into a larger world. That's right, we are introduced to a whole new galaxy - filled with witches, turtles, dogs, and the easiest person to find in a different galaxy: Ezra Bridger.
Come join us as we break it all down in our T&R Aftermath Show, and find out whether or not both episodes passed the George Lucas Star Wars test (GLSW)??

Ahsoka Aftermath Show Ep. 3 & 4 Review
#ahsokatano #starwars #sabinewren #anakinskywalker #baylanskoll #shinhati #hera #chooper #davefiloni #georgelucas #clonewars #rebels # huyang
It's time for us to fly and fight a fallen jedi with Ahsoka, Sabine, and Turk & Raz. Join us as we continue to penetrate deeper into Ahsoka....I mean in the latest episodes: Part 3 & 4. Sabine and Ahsoka are on the trail of Baylan, Morgan, and Turks' favorite Shin Hottie while Hera is doing some General stuff, because she is a 'General'. In these episodes our heroes find themselves entangled (no, not a Jada Pinkett-Smith entanglement) but in a space dog fight, and a clash of sabers. Boy I can't wait till we find out the identity of Marrok, he's totally going to be a major player in the Star Wars Saga?! Thanks for listening.

The Ahsoka series is finally here and it is a epic moment for Star Wars Fandom! Join us as we penetrate deep into Ahsoka and review the highly anticipated first two episodes of the latest live-action offering from Lucasfilm.
We dissect these episodes so deep that we even created our very own version based on the Bechdel test - the George Lucas Star Wars test (GLSW). We use this test in our review to evaluate whether or not these episodes portray Star Wars - the characters, the story, and universe properly in how George Lucas originally intended it to be! If you are a big time die hard fan, or a new comer to Star Wars, and you can't wait to get a taste of live action Ahsoka like us. Our podcast is the place to be. Thanks for listening!

Celebration Disaster: Rey's Back, Kathleen Kennedy Lies & Indy Dies
I have bad feeling about this. Just when we thought things couldn't get any worse for Star Wars. Kathleen Kennedy & Co. never seems to disappoint us in leaving us scratching our heads. Join us as we try to discuss our take away - recapping Star Wars Celebration 2023. If you know us by now. You know we don't pull any punches as it relates to things we don't like about the current state of Star Wars. But, that doesn't mean we think every announcement made by Lucasfilm was bad....does it, right Turk?! lol

Favreau Takes Heat For Mando S3 Ratings Slip
We discussed Mandalorian Season 3 ratings slide, and Jon Favreau's recent statements claiming the buck stops at him when it comes to creative control with the show. Is this just a deflection to Protect Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy? If not, then the question becomes is Jon Favreau really fit to write for episodic TV?
As usual we break it down the only way we can - with zero punches pulled! Anyways, come join the discussion and fun. As we fight one soy boy at a time. Thanks for listening.

Legends of the Fall (1994) Retro Roundtable
Welcome to another retro roundtable. For this roundtable we have become legend…. Legends of the Fall, that is. Turk and I always talk about how they don’t make movies like they used to anymore. To be honest we can’t remember the last time a film could hold a person, so spell bound. Well, the 1994 tragic and heartbreaking love story ‘Legends of the Fall’ does this to perfection. Not only are the characters in this movie engaging and vividly portrayed by the cast such as the likes of Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Julia Ormond, & Aidan Quinn. They also bring an inspired nuance and undertones, that is shame to this day none of the cast received an Oscar consideration for their portrayals. Everything in this movie is haunting, especially the Oscar winning cinematography capturing the beautiful scenery set in the Montana backdrop.
Alright, ladies and gentlemen. If generational period films is your type of thing? Then this episode of the Turk & Raz Podcast has the jam you need. Thanks for listening!

Back to the Future (1985) Retro Roundtable
The Back To The Future trilogy has been a childhood favorite for both Turk & I for a long time. Having revisited the first movie for this retro roundtable, it brought us back to a very nostalgic state. I think we can all agree the 80's saw a lot of excellent original fun 'young' films like 'Back to the Future'. What really made these films immensely enjoyable then, and why they're still classics today, is that they really reflected what it was like being a young person in the 80s.....I guess in the 50s too?!. The proof is in the pudding with these movies. They were not just well written, directed, or acted. They were also well executed and most importantly they cut straight to the point.
Back To The Future is sheer fun with incredible energy! However it still manages to stay a heart felt innocent film basically about family - with some funny interesting but cleaver themes using the Oedipus Rex's story 🤔
What can we say about the acting. Overall everyone in the film is fantastic. Then we have Christopher Lloyd as the over-the-top mad scientist which is just sheer brilliance. Then there is Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly. With his brilliant dialogue, natural charisma, and raw energy - he totally owns the role and gives us one the greatest cinematic young heroes ever!
Back to the Future is one of the most enjoyable time-travelling classics. After all these years it still hasn't gotten old. Unfortunately, they don't make them like this anymore but then again I guess we can always just revisit them, right.
This is a Turk & Raz episode you'll want to go back in time to watch .Thanks for listening!
