DIRTY DANCING 53:55

7d ago53:55

53:55

What's that you say? DIRTY DANCING is a Mom Movie? We are here to tell you that not only is it a Dad Movie, it is the DADDEST MOVIE. And if you disagree, you can go jump in a lake. With Patrick Swayze. And Jennifer Grey. Which sounds cold. But hella sexy. This movie rules and if you have kids and don't cry watching Jerry Orbach do Jerry Orbach thin…

COMMANDO 1:01:57

1:01:57

Dads take a lot of heat, and deservedly so: Life in a patriarchy means that much of this society is a direct reflection of generations of Dads - we have FOUNDING FATHERS for chrissakes - so everything, good and bad (and let's face it, the scales are tipping the wrong way) must be laid at our feet. And yet: We will do anything for our kids. A-N-Y-T-…

RIP to the magnificent Teri Garr, perhaps one of the patron (matron?) saints of Dad movies. No one was realer, funnier, or more fully and charmingly human. She and Michael Keaton make a pretty good meal out of these ingredients; it's pretty clear why the Oscar noms wait in the offing. Listen, Michael Keaton is having a moment, and deservedly so; bu…

Hannibal Lecter has been in the news recently for reasons both dumb and stupid.

America has had a lot of Dads. The good (Michael Landon, Barack Obama), the bad (Bill Cosby, Alec Baldwin), and the confusingly discordant (RIP Bob Saget/Danny Tanner).

Inside each of us is three Dads... (I've made this joke already, but c'mon) You've got a Guttenberg - sensitive and clueless. You've got a Danson - dashing and egomaniacal. You've got a Selleck - rugged and protective. These Dads are engaged in a relentless battle for dominance within you. When you suddenly have a baby (and I sincerely hope none of…

True story: My Dad purchased a bunch of tvs from an electronics store. He was informed that he would receive a discount if he signed up for their in-house credit card. So he (of course) proceeded to do so under a fake name because everyone knows that LAWS DO NOT APPLY TO DADS. When asked for his name for the card he said: "Bond. Fenimore Bond." I t…

How rare is it for a movie to serve as a primer on how to both BE and NOT BE a Dad? This film is the "Scared Straight" of Dad movies. Also Ted Kramer is a lousy person who is capable of great things. Or a great person who does a lot of lousy things. Is it any wonder that Dustin Hoffman won an Oscar? Meryl Streep, Jane Alexander, and Justin Henry al…

Perhaps we don't touch on the dark side of Dads often enough. But ask anyone who's even been, had, or known a Dad and they'll tell you it's there. The obsessiveness, the pettiness, the gatekeeping... it's all there. Perhaps (as this podcast occasionally posits) the real merit of a Dad comes from our ability to recognize and (hopefully) evolve into …
