Shite Talk : Why Critics are Wrong About Shelby Oaks
On this week’s Shite Talk, we push back on the backlash and explain why people are getting Shelby Oaks completely wrong, and why we think it is actually a cracking indie horror. Along the way we spiral into reality TV trauma with America’s Next Top Model, talk early thoughts on Lee Cronin taking on The Mummy, get curious about Spider-Man Noir, debate the latest chaos from The Traitors Ireland and dip into expectations for Welcome to Derry.
Why Coffee Town is the Ultimate Forgotten Comedy
In this episode, we’re heading to the local cafe to discuss the 2013 cult comedy Coffee Town. We’re breaking down why this "workplace" comedy deserves more love, Josh Groban’s comedic timing, and why every freelance writer feels seen by this movie. 🚨 WE HAVE A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨 After nearly a year of stunting, jumping buses, and surviving the post-apocalypse, we are making a major change. This will be our final episode on traditional audio platforms. We'll be taking a bit of a break to figure out how best to transition fully over to Youtube but just like the Terminator, we'll be back.

Cyborg: The Post-Apocalyptic Mullet Movie We Deserved
This week the lads are heading to the post-apocalyptic wasteland of 1989 as they take on Cyborg ,the low budget Van Damme vehicle that somehow launched a franchise and cemented JCVD as an action icon. Is it a misunderstood cult classic or just gloriously, magnificently mad? The lads break it all down.
Shite Talk: Metallica and The Temple of Bones
We finally saw the Bone Temple and are all excited to talk about it on this week's Shite Talk episode. We also bitch about Metallica and shitty Youtube Thumbnails. It's almost like we're old and cranky.
Hot Rod: A Masterclass in Underappreciated Comedy
This week we revisit Hot Rod and try to figure out how a box office flop became one of the most quoted comedies of the 2000s. Was it misunderstood at release? Is it secretly genius? Or is it just very committed nonsense? We break down the chaos, the sincerity, and why we might love it more now than ever.
Shite Talk:Jesus, Death & Nicolas Cage
This week on Shite Talk, the lads go deep on two of 2025's most talked about films ,Final Destination: Bloodlines and The Carpenter's Son. One is a franchise sequel that somehow managed to be the best in the series, the other is a biblical horror with Nicolas Cage as a very stressed Joseph that had absolutely no business being as divisive as it is. The lads break down the kills, the lore, the religion, and whether either film deserves a place in the cult classic hall of fame. As always, they also run through the latest movie trailers and news from the world of upcoming films.
Hamburger Hill (1987): Underrated Vietnam Classic?
The late 80s gave us some of the most iconic Vietnam films ever made, but where does Hamburger Hill fit? We go back to 1987 and unpack a war film that stripped away myth and left only the grind. No central hero. No triumphant charge. Just young men stuck in a cycle they barely understand. Did we overlook this one growing up? And how does it feel watching it now?
Does Highlander Still Rule or Are We Lying to Ourselves?
This week on Too Old For This Shite, we revisit Highlander (1986) the cult classic that mashed together immortal sword fights, punk villains, lightning effects, and an all-timer Queen soundtrack. We argue over whether Highlander is a misunderstood fantasy epic or just pure 80s vibes doing most of the work. From Christopher Lambert’s accent roulette and Sean Connery’s baffling casting, to Clancy Brown’s unhinged Kurgan performance, we break down what still rules, what absolutely doesn’t, and why this movie somehow still works.
Jackie Chan’s Armour of God Saga: Broken Bones & Desert Bunkers
This week, we dive headfirst into Jackie Chan’s globetrotting, bone-breaking adventures with Armour of God (1986) and Armour of God II: Operation Condor (1991). From tree-top stunt accidents to Sahara wind tunnels, we discuss the stunts that made us gasp, the plots that make no sense, and the characters who chew the scenery like it’s lunch. Whether you’re here for nostalgia, action-comedy mastery, or just to see if anyone survives watching this stuff sober, we’ve got you covered. Warning: May cause acute respect for stunt coordinators and disbelief at plot logic.
The Boondock Saints vs Things to Do in Denver When You’re Dead
Two 90s crime cult classics. Two very different vibes. In this episode of Too Old For This Shite, we compare The Boondock Saints with Things to Do in Denver When You’re Dead, breaking down cult status, style, performances, and which film actually improves with age. If you love crime movies, cult cinema, or arguing about late-90s film reputations, this episode is for you.
