This week we cover the time machine in boas and fishnets and head back to 1975 and... I guess ever since to watch it's technically 2nd highest grossing movie: The Rocky Horror Picture Show with guest comedian Rebecca Reeds! We go over Tim Curry, pube prevalence and just how great everybody's legs are.

This week, we waxed up the time skis and glided back to 1980 to have a look around and watch its second highest-grossing movie: 9 to 5 with guest comedian Amanda Day! We go over this one time some dudes drilled a hole that made a lake eat an island before we take a look at old-timey bridesmaids with Dolly Parton in it: 9 to 5.

This week, we throw a few thousand AOL Cds into the time furnace and head back to 2000 to have a look around and watch its second highest-grossing movie:  Gladiator with special guest Diana McCallum! We first go over a stupid racist submarine and then parse the game of thrones WWE tale featuring dream wheat that is Gladiator.

This week, we take on ballast so we don't tip over on the way and fly the time machine to 1972 to have a look around and watch its second highest-grossing movie: The Poseidon Adventure with comedian Clare Belford!  We first go over a man made of badass who flew to the moon and then go over a disaster movie that has a fat lady (her words), Gene Hackman as a priest who hates god, Ernest Borgnine as a cop who hates everything, and Leslie Nielsen as not a funny character, which is weird.
