They Must Be Destroyed On Sight!
TV & Film
This week Lee and Leah each bring a musical that they love to the show, that the other host has not seen before, and compare and contrast. Lee brings 1979's "Rock 'n' Roll High School", starring PJ Soles and his favourite rock band of all time, The Ramones! Leah beings the over-the-top Baz Luhrmann-directed "Moulin Rouge!" (2001), featuring a young Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman being really hot. What did each host think of the other's pick? Were the Ramones good actors? What were high school dress codes like in the 1980s? Is "Rock 'n' Roll High School" just a big Ramones commercial? Is it a secret vansploitation film? Leah rants about how high school should not define your life. Does "Moulin Rouge!"'s use of modern pop music work? Is Ewan McGregor much of a hero in the film? All of this and much more, including a ton of listener comments. Hey baby won't you take a chance? Join us in the Moulin Rouge and let us have this dance!
Catch Lee's appearance on Vaughn's Motion Picture Massacre podcast.
