Every episode, hosts Jeremy Toeman (@jtoeman, representing #genx) and JT White (@thebsideoflife our #millennial) take on a unique #LoFi Top 5 list, with an assemblage of nostalgia and some surprising insights into filmmaking and storytelling. Their ever-evolving format includes "the Shawshank" (the undebatable category definer), a guess-that-movie-by-a-five-word-description game, and a few rounds of "contender pong" for all the entries that didn't make the Top Five final list. Also: the podcast formerly known as Wingman Daily

While most film geeks like us know Citizen Kane was Orson Welles’ first feature film (though there’s a technicality and we talk about it), even we were surprised to discover some other absolutely amazing directorial debuts. In this episode, JT and Jeremy cover their top 5 favorite firsts, including some works by Rob Reiner, Sidney Lumet, John Huston, and even the legendary, the phenomenal, the master of Bayhem - Michael Bay. Also, enjoy a quickie game where Jeremy quizzes JT on some phenomenal *second* films by directors.

LoFiTop5 - LoFi Top 5 - 68 - The Disguise Episode
play

10/23/21 • 66 min

Whether it's bank robbers wearing ex-presidents’ masks, a princess imitating a bounty hunter, or a man somehow fooling his entire family by dressing up as a foreign nanny, there’s no shortage of clever disguises in movies. Then again, there’s just as many “she cut her hair a little short, but she’s not a boy!” or “single most famous person on the entire planet becomes unrecognizable due to glasses” somewhat-less-clever disguises in movies. Regardless, JT and Jeremy have a great time talking through some of the best (and less best) disguises in movies. But srsly, about that nanny-fooling-the-family thing before - really? Nobody could tell? Cmon.

We hope you have a healthy appetite for the latest episode - Top 5 Foodie Movies! As much as we pictured making lists of top food-related movies would be like a fancy breakfast buffet, it ended up a little closer to the high school cafeteria as far as healthy options go. JT summoned a few millennial-oriented tasty treats, while Jeremy struggled to find any generation x-themed movie to chew on. But the guys have a good time, it’s a satisfying meal/listen, and we discovered that basically everyone loves Chef. Enjoy!

In honor of dear ol' St. Patrick, a Welshman though he be, the lads have a craic this week at the Top 5 Irish movies of all time. It's not all Leprechauns and Pots O' Gold in this episode, oh no. While JT took to the more classic pictures, Jeremy was more of a chancer this week. Did the boys make of a bag of the episode, walking away scarlet-like, or did the fellas turn in a fierce performance...you be the judge? So grab a pint of the black stuff, bunk off, and tune in to this week's LoFi Top 5. Slainte

This week, LoFiTop5 Hosts Jeremy and JT discuss their Top Five Guilty Pleasure Movies...you know the films you love rewatching but maybe don’t want to admit it. The boys bare their souls a little when they admit their fondness for a pretty mediocre Matthew McConaughey rom-com from the 2000s, a universally disliked 80s sequel, and have a debate about the (un)intentional satire for one of Tim Burton’s zany flicks (aren’t they all?). Come swim in the nostalgia this week, it’s truly over the top.

The boys are back into the normal routine this week folks, and they are coming in HOT! This week they discuss the Top 5 most angering movie characters of all time. While the podcast is about being angry, they are anything but during the actual podcast. Turns out getting them both fired up leads to quite a bit of laughter. So think through the movie characters who really got under your skin and see how many you have in common with your favorite Top 5 duo!

It's the end of the year episode, which means it's time for the boys to look backward at the work they've done. But why do it alone when you can do it with friends! That's right, in this episode the boys invite loyal listeners to join the show and right some wrongs from the previous year. Listen in and see if you agree with the mistakes made. If not, maybe you should be on the next podcast...

This week the boys discuss the best movies that in SOME sense were a one-hit-wonder. Maybe the actor. Maybe the director. Maybe something completely different that is not-so-obvious. As always, there are twists and turns and lots of random movies and actors. So join the fun and see if the boys miss any of your favorite one-hit wonders are left off the list!
