41. 🏄😎 Airborne (1993) w/ Rob McCaffery

Dan & Manny invite actor Rob McCaffe ( / robmccaffs ) ry ( / robmccaffs ) from the Sanity is Overrated (sanityisoverrated.buzzsprout....) podcast to put the 1993 cult-classic Airborne (www.imdb.com/title/tt0106233/) to the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST. Dan, Manny, and Rob attempt to make sense out of Mitchell Goosen's choice to bring a surfboard to land-locked Cincinnati, Ohio in the middle of winter, they try to figure out if this a surfing movie or a rollerblading movie, or a hockey movie, and who can forget all of Goosen's Baja (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baja_ja...) Hoodies (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baja_ja...) . ---more---
They also dive into:
• Jacob Vargas (www.imdb.com/name/nm0889846/?...) (Snake) being the actual hero of this movie.

• Jack Black (www.imdb.com/name/nm0085312/?...) , Seth Green (www.imdb.com/name/nm0001293/?...) , & Alanna Ubach (www.imdb.com/name/nm0005513/?...) saving this film.

• The comedy genius of Edie McClurg (www.imdb.com/name/nm0566052/?...) & Patrick Thomas O'Brien (www.imdb.com/name/nm0639403/?...)

• Why does Goosen rollerblade without socks?

And much more, including:
• The Hogan Family (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hog...)

• Goosen is a mix of:
• Tom Sawyer

• Huckleberry Finn

• Popeye

• Buddha

• Gandhi


• Why do Goosen's Aunt & Uncle call each other Father & Mother?

• There are WAY too many montages!

• And let's not forget all of the Goosen monologues!

• Is this Cincinnatti town where Tommy Boy (www.imdb.com/title/tt0114694/) was shot? Or is this where Gung Ho (www.imdb.com/title/tt0091159/) was shot?

• Manny does an amazing rollerblade monologue.

• Was a PB&J burger a thing?

• We write an epilogue for Airborne.

• Why we need a Robot Chicken Airborne episode.

• The only important thing Goosen does is pull Blaine's pants down.
