Ron and John discuss movies that seemed to be on cable all the time in the 80's. Some are all time classics, some not so much. Either way we love these movies and hope you will too!

Special guest alert and bonus content alert! On Ep7! Wow, Uncle Ron is treating his 3 listeners right! This is a sit down with John @senseofshelfpod to talk through the film and book of the 1992 hit "A River Runs Through It." Known best as "that fishing movie" it is a mastepiece of film and literature that needs some love.

Learn why Ron Identifies with the movie differently now than 30 years ago, the effects addiction can have on a life, and some other depressing stuff in between us discussing funnier things, like why poor Craig Scheffer didn't become a star after this. "If Sonny save your movie, nobody can!"

Uncle Ron and John sat down with comedian and all around amazing dude, Drew Morgan @drewmorgcomedy www.drewmorgancomedy.com to have a talk about the 1994 Earp Brothers epic, Tombstone. We had limited time due to a mixup, so our ep is a little short. We decided it would be a nice bonus for our latchkey kids and we'll likely revisit this film again in the future. Be sure to like and subscribe and follow us at @CWTBpodcast on twitter.

Please see Drew LIVE on the road (dates on his site) along with friend of the pod @gutterbumpkin, DJ Lewis.

Solo pod for Uncle Ron today, I talk some Shiz about Ridley Scott's "The Last Duel" and why you should under no circumstances watch it. I make a plea for the return of "The Newsroom" and then spend an hour on "Moneyball" and frankly could spend another hour on the A's and their team from that year.
