Apparently we’re the weird ones here, but we haven’t watched all the Rocky movies. Chris has seen two, Alex three, and this is Tanya’s first. What a way to be introduced to the franchise, huh? Rocky is retired but still rich enough to buy robots for people who don’t want them and watch friends die in the ring.
But he still has what it takes to get punched in the head if that’s what he has to do FOR AMERICA, which he does, ending the cold war.
We’re joined this week by Rocky enthusiast and smart movie reviewer Jeff Bayer of the Movie BS podcast who almost elevates our show but then we don’t quite let him.
