Ep 38 - Holes

6/6/2024
Camp evokes positive memories for most of us – playing sports, swimming in a lake, maybe having your first kiss. But for some of us, camp was work. This week on Save the Last Pod, camp sucks, because we’re talking about the 2003 Disney forced child labor film Holes! In this episode, Amy and Dan discuss a Louis Sachar classic YA book turned movie. They also reminisce about Scholastic Book Fairs, Pizza Huts, and they debate exactly how many holes we all have. Pick up your shovel, fill up your canteen and bite into a raw onion – because why not? – while we take you back to the film debut of Shia LeBeouf. Are you enjoying what you are hearing?

What’s the craziest thing you’ve done lately? Run down the street naked with nothing but a tire to carry around your waist? Pool hop in your principal’s pool late at night?

It’s the 2004 Emile Hirsch, Elisha Cuthbert starring romantic teen comedy, THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, let’s go!! In this episode, Amy and Dan chat about cringe yearbook quotes, meaningful high school sex education, and just how cool Timothy Olyphant looks in this film. It’s a horny comedy of unfortunate circumstances featuring an exchange student from Cambodia and personable porn stars that teach us precisely what having moral fiber is. PLUS!

Ep 36 - Twilight

5/23/2024
For millennials, there is not much more of a triggering question than, “Team Edward or Team Jacob?” and it's the one we are asking ourselves this week on Save the Last Pod! Round up all your Twi-Hard friends and family, we are flying up the trees of the Pacific Northwest to get into the Kristen Stewart, Edward Cullen Vampire Fantasy Romance that started a mega-franchise and was even featured on Burger King crowns everywhere. It’s TWILIGHT! Let’s go! In this episode, Amy and Dan debate why the vegetarian, baseball-swinging, glow-in-the-sunlight vampires, the Cullen family, still go to High School after one hundred and eight years. They reminisce on what it was like getting asked to prom, and wonder - what is going on with Taylor Lautner’s wig? Amy and Dan go down the rabbit hole of cinema’s favorite seductive character, the vampire film, but don’t worry there is enough to go around about this coded film about celibacy, desire, and human pheromones. If you're a fan of Teen Movies, we'd love to hear from you! Leave us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, GoodPods, or your preferred platform. Your feedback is invaluable to us.

5/9/2024
The clock is ticking and that means it is time for a NEW episode of Save the Last Pod! This week, we're delving into a cult-classic that famously lost its backer, Mr. Steven Speilberg, once he saw the final cut. Brace yourself for the David vs. Goliath, anxiety-driven teen romp, “THREE O’CLOCK HIGH!” It's a journey you won't want to miss. That’s right prom kings and queens, it's our chance to say, “Meet me out by the bike racks, 3 PM!” In this episode, Amy and Dan discuss real memories of hall brawls, teen bullies, their very noticeable height differences as a married couple, and question the believability of a school store. And, hey, this movie stars Paul Feig, that guy with the 3D glasses from “Back to the Future” and Ferris Bueller’s sister’s friend. You know who they are and if you don’t, come find out!

4/25/2024
If you woke up tomorrow naked, next to a New York Ranger only to discover you somehow missed the last 17 years of your life, what would you do? This week on Save the Last Pod, we discuss the best case scenario in the kind of time travel/sort of body switching 2004 classic, 13 Going on 30!

Take a trip in reverse back down memory lane to this tiny college in New Hampshire where television’s good kids, Dawson Leary, Kevin Arnold, and Mary Camden, turn baaaaddd.

Ep 30 - The Sandlot

4/3/2024
Do you ever wish you could go back in time to your salad days? To the dog days of summer when you desperately needed to learn how to play baseball to make friends and impress your step-dad? This week on Save the Last Pod, it’s a shot of nostalgia with a milk chaser. In this episode, Amy & Dan are talking about the 1993 pre-teen baseball classic, “The Sandlot”. Listen as your favorite hosts debate why there aren’t any teen baseball movies, discuss the pitch perfect kid casting and disclose how many state championship teams Amy actually played on. You’re killing me, Smalls! Lace up those cleats, pack a fat lip of Big League Chew and let us take you back to 1962, when baseball was America’s pastime. Is this podcast a home run?

Ep 29 - John Tucker Must Die

3/27/2024
This week on Save the Last Pod, we travel to 2006, when the biggest statement of the year was: “John Tucker Must Die.” And that’s ironic because that is the title of our teen movie this week! It’s the Brittany Snow-Jesse Metcalfe-Ashanti-Jenny McCarthy banger, “JOHN TUCKER MUST DIE.” Let’s go! In this episode, Amy & Dan pit hip-hop royals Beyonce & Jay-Z and Ashanti & Nelly against one another, talk armpit farts, red thongs, and webcams, and dissect the slightly regressive undertones presented in this female-helmed film. Also, did you hear that they are making a follow-up to this classic? That’s right. The hosts of the hallway also make a bid to Hollywood with their ideas for where to take the second iteration of this teen-revenge comedy. We just hope that Penn Badgley will rock the same hairdo in the sequel. Please and thank you! Is this podcast a slam dunk? If so, rate us 5 Stars!

A dead dame unravels a tangled web of hot head smack slingers, jocks, stoners, loners and hardboiled gumshoes who scrap it up chasing after a brick of white gold in today’s classic 2005 high school noir, Brick. Listen up, turds, because it’s probably the last high school noir we’ll cover. In this episode, Amy & Dan talk about why they don’t make noirs anymore, as well as JGL’s journey from 3rd Rock to tough guy, and Rian Johnson’s journey from Sundance darling to Knives Out hotboi. Take off those noisy shoes and those tiny glasses, unravel this ball of yarn and let us take you on a journey down this 2005 rabbit hole.

3/6/2024
It’s Oscar Week in Hollywood, dweebs! This week, we honor the Little Gold Man by bringing you to Sacramento circa 2002! That’s right, early aughts are now considered a “period piece,” babe. Released in 2017, it’s the even bigger snub (IMO) from auteur writer/director Greta Gerwig, we’re talking LADY BIRD! In this episode, Amy presses Dan on why he dubbed himself with the name “Fresh,” and our first listener review! Shout-out to KevDogggy, with three G’s. Your favorite Dave Matthews fans also discuss the Chicago River incident, what it was like to grow up in the shadow of 9/11, and that weird feeling of “home” when you must leave yours to feel whole. Yes, we get a little emotional! But don’t worry we still nerd out over Tim-o-tee and laugh at this film’s exquisite, should’ve-won-an-Oscar dialogue. Does this podcast deserve an Oscar?

Last week we covered a progressive Gen Z film about sisterhood, love and friendship that probably doesn’t pass the Bechdel Test, and this week we’re following it up with a Boomer teen movie about a retired colonel and his boy servant that absolutely does not pass the Bechdel Test. There’s a lot of talk about smelling women though. It’s Scent of a Woman! Hooah!
