Last Call At Torchy’s #7 : Streets Of Fire (1984)

Author: LegionPodcasts.com April 20, 2022 Duration: 56:09
The Torchy’s boys are back to discuss a favorite of Gary’s but a first time watch for one of us with the motor-driven, leather clad, two-fisted rock and roll fable from Streets Of Fire from 1984. This tells the tale of Tom Cody (Michael Pare) who is an ex-soldier who is called back home to rescue his ex-girlfriend (Diane Lane) when she is kidnapped by The Bombers who are a ruthless biker gang led by Raven Shaddock. (Willem Dafoe) Along with her shady manager (Rick Moranis) and a street smart mercenary (Amy Madigan), they shoot and burn their way through to make it home for a final showdown. We talk about many things including Muppets on this edition that will have you sweating buckets without being hot.

Grab a stool and settle in at The Butcher Shop, where the conversation is always fresh and the cuts are deep. Host Gary is joined by regulars Iris Walters, Suzanne Cappelletti, and Jamie Sammons to break down a pair of films connected by a common theme, genre, or sometimes just a wonderfully bizarre coincidence. This isn't a dry critical analysis, though you'll certainly get sharp insights. Instead, think of it as overhearing a lively, sometimes chaotic debate among friends who love movies, from blockbuster TV adaptations to obscure cult classics. The real meat of this podcast is the camaraderie and the good-natured ribbing that flies back and forth as they dissect what works, what doesn't, and why a particular performance leaves them in stitches. You'll hear genuine laughter, passionate disagreements, and the kind of tangents that only happen when people are truly enjoying a conversation. Whether the films are comedies, dramas, or something entirely unclassifiable, the discussion is always approachable and engaging. For anyone who enjoys film but often finds the most memorable part is talking about it afterwards with friends, this podcast captures that exact feeling. Each episode feels like you've pulled up a chair at the table, ready for a double feature followed by a conversation that's as entertaining as the movies themselves.
