Season 1 - Teaser Trailer

Follow the adventures of Jeff, Yuta and Allea as they are thrust back in time to watch classic (and not so classic) films of the 70's and 80's... each episode starts with an audio drama narrative story that thrusts them in and out of the movies they discuss... then join them in studio as they have a good old fashioned discussion of trivia and knowledge about the film... at the end, the narrative continues and they are thrust through time again!

What film will they end up in next... and will they ever get back home? And what power or force is behind the magical betamax player that is causing their travels? Is it from some benevolent source... or is something insidious afoot? Only time will tell...

Part audio drama, part film discussion... all nostalgic and entertaining fun!

[00:00:01] .

[00:00:02] I'm sure it's up here somewhere.

[00:00:05] Yeah, even if it is, it's going to be covered in dust.

[00:00:08] I'm not worried about that, Jeff.

[00:00:10] We'll just clean it off.

[00:00:11] Utah, what kind of box was it in?

[00:00:13] Uh, kinda, I don't know, square-y?

[00:00:17] Rectangly?

[00:00:18] Well, why didn't you say it was a square-y rectangle-y box?

[00:00:22] I mean, all this time we've been assuming it's a hexagonal trapezoid-y shape.

[00:00:26] Aliah, you're gonna have to change your search parameters.

[00:00:28] Yeah, well, it's basically the description of every box in here.

[00:00:32] Sorry, I just don't remember where it was.

[00:00:35] I know that...

[00:00:36] Oh, look at this.

[00:00:37] What'd you got?

[00:00:40] That looks like the shape of the North Coast.

[00:00:42] Is that Cleveland?

[00:00:43] Yeah, check it out.

[00:00:45] There's the Cuyahoga River.

[00:00:46] Oh, it's really old though.

[00:00:48] How old is this thing?

[00:00:49] Uh, it's there.

[00:00:50] Whoa, 1803?

[00:00:52] 1803?

[00:00:53] Why would my parents even have this?

[00:00:56] Our family didn't come here until 1975.

[00:00:59] Maybe it was from the previous owners?

[00:01:01] Maybe.

[00:01:02] Oh my gosh, you know what this is?

[00:01:06] It couldn't be.

[00:01:07] Utah, it totally is.

[00:01:09] Here, hold the frame.

[00:01:10] Let me pull the map off of it.

[00:01:12] What is happening right now?

[00:01:14] Goonies.

[00:01:15] What'd you call me?

[00:01:16] It's goonies!

[00:01:17] Am I supposed to know what a goonie is?

[00:01:20] Oh, sorry, I'm forgetting how young you are.

[00:01:23] Well, just because I'm less seasoned than you guys doesn't mean you can leave me out of

[00:01:28] your gigantics.

[00:01:29] Seasons?

[00:01:30] You mean old.

[00:01:31] Trying to be gentle.

[00:01:32] It is appreciated.

[00:01:33] The goonies, 1985, Richard Donner, Steven Spielberg.

[00:01:37] Oh yeah, I think I saw that.

[00:01:40] They find an old map in the attic, their clues.

[00:01:44] It's a pirate treasure!

[00:01:46] And you think that's what you have here on Ohio's North Coast?

[00:01:50] Was there a lot of pirate activity there at some point?

[00:01:52] Did it or not?

[00:01:53] Yeah, there was.

[00:01:54] Yeah, but this is nothing but a regular old map.

[00:01:57] Oh, you're serious?

[00:01:59] Yeah, it's not even printed in 1803.

[00:02:01] It's a reprint.

[00:02:02] Look here, published 1998?

[00:02:05] Ouch!

[00:02:06] It's not even older than me.

[00:02:09] Oh man, shucks.

[00:02:10] You know what?

[00:02:12] We need more mid-1800s Great Lakes Pirate movies.

[00:02:15] Do we though?

[00:02:16] More than zero.

[00:02:17] Fair enough.

[00:02:18] Wait, what in the world is this contraption?

[00:02:21] Oh, jeez Utah.

[00:02:22] Does she find your fifth grade science project where you tried to create a robot that could

[00:02:25] feed the cat out of an erector set in a 2XL?

[00:02:28] That would have worked if they'd let me finish.

[00:02:30] Oh, that poor cat.

[00:02:32] Uh, wait, what happened to the cat?

[00:02:35] He's kidding.

[00:02:36] I'm kidding.

[00:02:37] Is it the robot?

[00:02:38] It's not a robot or I don't think so.

[00:02:40] Here, let me see.

[00:02:41] Oh, Jeff, check it out.

[00:02:45] What do you got?

[00:02:46] Oh my gosh, you're kidding me!

[00:02:48] Okay, less season here, what is it?

[00:02:51] Alia, my friend, you have found a true relic of the 70s and 80s.

[00:02:56] I can't believe my parents still have it up here.

[00:03:00] It's a Betamax video cassette player.

[00:03:04] Like a VCR?

[00:03:05] Yeah, but even older, like the tapes were different, but it really summoned in the

[00:03:09] era of true home entertainment, the magic of cinema in your very own home.

[00:03:13] And whenever you wanted, not just when something was going to air on TV.

[00:03:17] However did you survive?

[00:03:19] Seriously though.

[00:03:20] The Betamax is iconic.

[00:03:22] It lost the videotape wars, but what a cool piece of technological history here.

[00:03:27] There were videotape wars?

[00:03:28] Was it because people kept forgetting to rewind?

[00:03:30] Nice.

[00:03:31] No, there was Betamax and VHS.

[00:03:34] VHS won out.

[00:03:36] Kind of like Blu-ray and HD DVD.

[00:03:38] And now everything is digital.

[00:03:40] This was the beginning of all that.

[00:03:41] Oh my, it's magnificent.

[00:03:45] Is that a tape inside?

[00:03:47] Looks like it.

[00:03:48] I wonder if it still works.

[00:03:49] Is there power up here?

[00:03:51] Oh yeah, over there.

[00:03:52] Yeah, and that looks like a TV shape over there under that sheet.

[00:03:54] I'll give it.

[00:03:56] Yep, an old Zenith.

[00:03:57] Nice.

[00:03:58] You're going to try to hook it up.

[00:03:59] I feel like we kind of have to.

[00:04:02] What movies in there do you think?

[00:04:04] An old home movie or something?

[00:04:07] There, plugged in.

[00:04:08] That should do it.

[00:04:11] You help with that TV, Jeff?

[00:04:15] I got it.

[00:04:18] It's powered up.

[00:04:19] I want to eject.

[00:04:21] Crap, the tape is stuck.

[00:04:22] Oh, are you serious?

[00:04:24] Looks like it.

[00:04:25] Let me hook it up.

[00:04:26] I have a multi-tool on my keychain.

[00:04:30] Never mind.

[00:04:31] It's hooked up.

[00:04:32] Just play it.

[00:04:33] OK.

[00:04:34] This is kind of exciting.

[00:04:35] Are we going to see Baby Yuta?

[00:04:37] Grogu.

[00:04:38] I said Yuta.

[00:04:39] Oh, my bad.

[00:04:41] Well, let's hope it's that tame and not something else.

[00:04:43] Don't even go there.

[00:04:46] Well, what are you waiting for?

[00:04:47] Turn it on.

[00:04:52] Button seems stuck as well.

[00:04:53] Just give it some elbow grease.

[00:04:57] Not happening.

[00:04:58] All right, let me try.

[00:04:59] Don't break it.

[00:05:01] I won't.

[00:05:01] I just.

[00:05:08] What is happening?

[00:05:10] I didn't break it.

[00:05:11] I didn't break it.

[00:05:12] Watch out.

[00:05:13] There's lots of electricity coming out.

[00:05:14] Back up.

[00:05:16] Where's all this light coming from?

[00:05:17] The door is actually gone.

[00:05:30] There's Jeff Yuta and Elia, who discovered an old beta max

[00:05:36] player.

[00:05:38] They saw tape stuck inside, decided to give it a try.

[00:05:41] But what they saw, they couldn't believe with their eyes

[00:05:45] when they hit play.

[00:05:47] Big started to get strange when

[00:05:49] they saw a red curtain up whoo-low standing

[00:05:53] then flying through its own roll.

[00:05:59] We're going back.

[00:06:02] We're going back.

[00:06:03] We're going back.

[00:06:05] We're going back.

[00:06:07] Now we are in an old movie that we have to review.

[00:06:11] If we want the next adventure, it's what we have to do

[00:06:15] when we hit play.

[00:06:17] Don't know where we'll go.

[00:06:18] But hopefully the next time we'll send us home,

[00:06:22] we're going back.

[00:06:24] We're going back.

[00:06:26] We're going back.

[00:06:27] We're going back.

[00:06:38] Oh, shoot.

[00:06:40] You guys OK?

[00:06:41] I think so.

[00:06:43] What happened?

[00:06:44] Where the heck are we?

[00:06:47] Um, I don't think we're in your parents' attic anymore, Utah.

[00:06:53] It's still an attic though, but you're right.

[00:06:55] It's not the one we were just in, but what's it go?

[00:06:58] The broken frame is here, though.

[00:07:00] You see that?

[00:07:02] Now this frame is different.

[00:07:03] Yeah, and I left the map of Cleveland on top of it.

[00:07:06] It's gone.

[00:07:08] What in the world is going on?

[00:07:11] You hear that?

[00:07:13] Voices, yeah.

[00:07:15] Downstairs.

[00:07:17] I thought you said your folks were away on vacation.

[00:07:19] They are.

[00:07:20] It sounds like kids.

[00:07:21] Aliyah, go check it out.

[00:07:22] Me?

[00:07:24] Fine, fine, I'll go.

[00:07:25] You guys wait here.

[00:07:28] The Betamax player is still here.

[00:07:31] The TV isn't.

[00:07:33] It's still running, but how?

[00:07:34] It's not plugged into anything.

[00:07:37] This is bizarre.

[00:07:39] Um, Utah?

[00:07:43] Yeah.

[00:07:45] You're not going to believe who's downstairs.

[00:07:48] Who?

[00:07:50] Just, you know, Sean Aston, Corey Feldman, Josh Brolin.

[00:07:56] They're in my parents' house?

[00:07:58] Well, see.

[00:08:00] What?

[00:08:00] That's just it.

[00:08:04] It's not Utah's parents' house.

[00:08:07] It's theirs.

[00:08:08] Wait, what do you say?

[00:08:11] We're not in Cleveland anymore.

[00:08:14] We're in the Goonies.

[00:08:29] Thanks for listening to our teaser.

[00:08:31] Basically, you just heard the first eight minutes or so

[00:08:34] of our new podcast series, part narrative audio drama

[00:08:37] and part good old fashioned classic film discussion

[00:08:40] review and trivia show.

[00:08:41] We think you're going to like what we have in store.

[00:08:43] Each episode is bookended with narrative bits

[00:08:45] like you just heard telling the story of our intrepid heroes

[00:08:48] as they are thrust through time to experience

[00:08:50] films from the past, some great, some not so great.

[00:08:53] In between the two narrative bits,

[00:08:55] we discuss the films themselves and share some fun tidbits

[00:08:57] about the history cast and other trivia

[00:08:59] while we decide if the film still holds up today.

[00:09:02] The discussion is fun and laugh filled

[00:09:04] while the adventure bits are fun and mysterious.

[00:09:07] Why is this happening to us?

[00:09:08] Who is behind it all?

[00:09:09] Will we ever press play and get sent back home?

[00:09:12] You'll have to tune in to find out,

[00:09:14] but we hope you'll enjoy this unique twist
