Leanord is perfectly happy doing what he does for his clientelle. But his clientelle happens to be, mostly, a mob family. Things take a turn for Leonard when two of his clients show up after hours in need of a favor.  Will Deana like it? Will she hate it? Listen to find out!

On this epsiode, Deana educates Jeremy about the 1985 movie Clue. Featuring several of both Deana AND Jeremy's favorite actors  in it's star-studded cast, evern Jeremy can't believe he'd never seen this one!

Hello Educators! We are back with a brand new edition! We've been gone for over a year! WOW! Time flies when you are swamped at the day job. But, we're back! A little rusty, but here we are. This episode, Deana Marie educates Jeremy on the 1988 fantasy movie Willow, starring Warwick Davis, Joanne Whalley, and Val Kilmer. Hasn't everyone seen this movie? Well, not Jeremy! But that has been remedied! Check out this episode to see what he thought about it and if it "holds up". Also, towards the end, Jeremy refers to Chris Claremont as Chris Claremount. An easy mispronunciation but, rest assured, he has beaten himself about the head and shoulders for this egregious error.

This episode, Deana and Jeremy break the mold that the show is built on, and talk about the latest entry into the Halloween franchise, the newly released Halloween Kills! If you are an Educator, you know that Deana LOVES Horror movies, and that Halloween is one of her all time favorites. Listen in as these two discuss this...masterpiece?...disaster? You'll have to listen to find out! Happy Halloween, Educators!

The holidays are over but while there's snow on the ground it still feels like Christmas.  Jeremy and Deana-Marie keep the holiday spirit going with the 1944 classic Meet Me in St. Louis, starring the incomparable Judy Garland, Margaret O'Brien, the "it girl" of silent films Mary Astor and Leon Ames.  Directed by Vincent Minelli and set just after the turn of the century, everyone is excited about the of t 1904 the World's Fair coming to St. Louis!

This week, we have a very special guest in the studio! Jeremy's son Ian sits in to talk about the 1988 Christmas classic, Die Hard! While Jeremy has seen this one, Ian has not!

This episode is an Educating Deana episode! Jeremy introduces Deana Marie to the movie that terrified hime as a child! The `978, made for TV movie, "he Ghost of Flight 401"!

It's almost impossible to believe we hadn't yet covered a film based on the writings of Stephen King.  Well, believe it!  This week we rectify that offense with the 1976 thriller Carrie, based on King's book and directed by Brian DePalma.  It was almost accidental how Deana-Marie and Jeremy landed on this movie, King's first novel and the first film made from one of his books.  Yes, he's a lucky son of a gun, and Deana-Marie's favorite author.  This episode is full of so much trivia, cast members popping up in other films and, as Jeremy called it, the slap fest of 1976.  

'Tis the season.  We're falling into fall, getting excited for Halloween and starting our seasonal movie watching early this year with the 1993 film Hocus Pocus, directed by Kenny Ortega, starring Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, Sarah Jessica Parker and Thora Birch.  Will Jeremy enjoy this family Halloween comedy as much as Deana Marie?  All we can tell you for now is Jeremy wrote a subtitle for the movie - When You Get Outed as a Virgin by Three Witches.  Hurry up and listen, before we put a spell on you. 

We are back! After wwhat turned into a 5 month hiatus, we are back! And, this episode, we are talking about a new movie that neither of us had seen! We are talking about the 3rd installment of the Bill & Ted series!
