Automatic Rewind

In honor of the late Robert Redford, Cuz & Gus revisit Spy Game (2001) — celebrating his legacy as one of Hollywood’s greats while breaking down his iconic turn as Nathan Muir, Brad Pitt’s tense performance, and Tony Scott’s globe-hopping spy thriller.

Big Trouble in Little China: part kung fu flick, part western, part comedy. Gus & Cuz climb aboard the Pork-Chop Express to figure out how a box office flop became 80s cult royalty—because it’s all in the reflexes.

Gus and Cuz take you in and out of The Big Lebowski—breaking down the characters, conspiracies, carpets, and Creedence, one scene at a time. Along the way, they’ll tackle life’s big questions: What does The Stranger actually do? Is Walter the worst best friend of all time? And seriously, what’s with the In-N-Out Burger obsession? Spoiler: they don’t love it. But they do love The Dude. This is the podcast that really ties it all together, man.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Join us as we dive into Brian De Palma’s stylish spy thriller that kicked off one of the most durable action franchises in movie history. Mission: Impossible gave us exploding gum, CIA break-ins, and a young Tom Cruise sprinting toward superstardom (and helicopters). We’re talking masks, mole hunts, that iconic vault scene—and yes, that wild third-act twist. And while Tom Cruise was dangling from wires, we’ve been doing our own stunts too—Cuz & Gus style. Think less “CIA infiltration” and more “falling through ceiling tiles trying to install a projector” or “getting chased out of a Publix parking lot during a rogue grocery cart drag race.” We’ve never broken into Langley (yet), but we have broken a folding chair and possibly a tailbone in the name of immersive podcasting.

In this episode, Cuz and Gus step onto the tee box and take a whack at Happy Gilmore—Adam Sandler’s legendary 1996 golf comedy that turned the PGA Tour into a full-contact sport.  From Bob Barker brawls to Subway sponsorships, we relive the moments that made Happy Gilmore a cult classic—and debate whether Happy would’ve made the cut on today’s LIV tour. And we’ve got to ask: when Happy Gilmore 2 hits the green in regulation, are we watching?

This episode, Cuz and Gus sink their teeth into Snatch, Guy Ritchie’s gritty, hilarious, and utterly chaotic crime classic. From bare-knuckle boxing to diamond heists, the boys unravel the film’s crisscrossing plotlines, iconic characters (yes, we’re talking about Brad Pitt’s unintelligible brilliance), and nonstop quotable dialogue. Expect some tangents, questionable accents, and a whole lot of fun along the way.

In the spirit of May the Fourth, Gus and Cuz take on Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith — and let’s just say, only one of them came into this as a fan.
