Go With The Heat

160 - The King of Karate Cities

This is a once-in-a-lifetime movie. Seriously. This is as good as a  karate movie gets. How do we know? Its got all the tropes. Full songs  that are oddly specific to the scene? Check. Sensei beating the shit out  of their own students? Check. Always doing the right thing no matter  what? Just listen to the lyrics… We absolutely adore this movie and always, ALWAYS have a ton of fun  when watching and now we finally get to profess our love of Miami  Connection, Dragon Sound, and Jim’s Dad. This is our final movie of this  season and we IMPLORE you to listen to our breakdown, then run out and  buy a copy of Miami Connection for your own library so you can watch  again and again. Movie info Premiered: Aug. 26, 1988 (Dec. 11, 2012) Directed by: Richard Park and Y.K. Kim Written by: Richard Park and Y.K. Kim Produced by: Y.K. Kim This movie was Y.K. Kim’s vision and brainchild, with Richard Park (a  Korean film director) facilitating the entire thing.  So many people want to say this is a terrible movie and they use it  to just rip it apart and capitalize on the “bad movie” trend. These  people don’t care about these movies the way we do. They only want to  tear down and use other people’s misfortunes to build themselves up.  This goes against everything this movie stands for. Friendship. Honesty.  Loyalty. These are the things that matter in life and Kim knew that. I  will never tear this movie down, it is fantastic and tells an amazing  story about friendship and family. This is the only movie in this season  that has an actual heart, and not dollar signs in their eyes.

160 - Miami Connection

We are going to warn you up front we are not a fan of this movie.  Along these lines, we say some pretty harsh things about the Chuckster  and Turtle Carradine, I mean David Carradine. So if you’re gonna get  your feelings hurt by us making fun of this movie, we’ll see you next  week for Miami Connection. Now with that out of the way, this is a stinker and we have so much  fun Dominic stopped breathing for 3 consecutive minutes after Melissa  called Kung Fu man a Diplodocus. This movie is so ridiculous its  probably the funniest episode of the Go With The Heat podcast ever. You  may not agree with our assessment of this movie, there is one thing we  can all agree on… This is 100% a karate movie. Seriously, don’t miss this episode of the podcast. It is laugh out  loud hilarious. But go ahead and skip Lone Wolf McQuade. This podcast is  a better version. Movie info Premiered: April 15, 1983 Directed: Steve Carver Did  a lot of work with Corman. Edited a bunch of trailers and commercials,  directed a handful. Also directed An Eye For An Eye with the Chuckster. Written: H. Kaye Dyal , B.J. Nelson Another shruggie. Cast Chuck Norris David Carradine Barbara Carrera Leon Isaac Kennedy L. Q.

158 - Lone Wolf McQuade

After an unexpected vacation, we’re back with a movie we have been  chomping at the bit to watch. To be honest, it was everything we hoped  it would be. It was like watching an action movie dubbed by Tommy Wiseau  and we have zero complaints. We have a lot to love about Angel Town, including Jacque absolutely  destroying fools. Its also the first movie where the main character is  100% optional. We only have one question… What happened in Hong Kong? Movie info Premiered: Feb. 23, 1990 Directed: Eric Karson We have a type and we can’t fight it. We find these movies not knowing  that they’re connected! He also directed The Octogon (ninjas…) and Black  Eagle (JCVD). He also produced Lionheart and acted in it. Written: S.

157 - Angel Town

Hey pals, we had a very busy two weeks. Between our normal schedule,  John on vacation, moving and then having some dental work, the next  thing we knew we were out of time. So instead, we sat down and put our  heads together to find a classic episode of the podcast. Something from  the archives that is one of our favorites. I guess you can say we had pasta on the brain. In this classic rerun  of the show we go all the way back to episode number 99, originally  released in June of 2018. We love this episode of Miami Vice and has  brought back some fun memories. Remember kids, if he owns a pasta factory your possibilities are endless! Episode Information Miami Vice – Season 04 Ep. 19 – Blood and Roses Premiered April 1, 1988 Writer: Dick Wolf Director: George Mendeluk (one more coming) Guest Stars Stanley Tucci as Frank Mosca Michael Wincott as Wilson Cook Meg Foster as Alice Carson Frank Stallone as Billy Hosts Dominic  Twitter: @domcorriveau YouTube: Dominic Corriveau Personal Podcast: DC Talks Blog: ObscuredNarration.com John Twitter: @corriveau_john Melissa Twitter: @mrsmelcorriveau Feedback Got some feedback?

156 - Classic Rerun: Blood and Roses

In just about every episode of GWTH this season we’ve mentioned one  movie. An amazing movie with John Stamos as a high schooler who suddenly  learns gymkata. With John being on vacation, Melissa and Dom see this  opportunity to finally discuss Never Too Young To Die. A delightfully  ridiculous movie that you should definitely watch. With a great cast, an over-the-top story and oddly specific music,  you absolutely need to check this episode out and then immediately go  watch this movie. This is a perfect summer movie. So get out the White  Claws and turn up your headphones. Movie info Premiered:  June 13, 1986 Directed by:  Gil Bettman (no wiki) Written by: Steven Paul He  also Produced this movie. Produced and continues to produce a  lot of  movies. Everything from Baby Geniuses, Bratz: The Movie to Rambo Last  Blood and Ghost Rider.

155 - You Should Watch It: Never Too Young To Die

Hands down this is one of our favorite karate movies of all-time.  Full stop. In this episode we literally swoon over this entire movie,  beginning to end, and in our final thoughts our only complaint is that  we can’t get more. Not only is it a great movie, but being produced by  Motown means it has the most amazing movie soundtrack ever. Dominic explains his love of both Sho’nuff and Richie. Melissa has a  few Laura moments over Taimak. John gives us all the details on Vanity.  This is a great episode for a fantastic movie. Movie info Premiered: March 22, 1985 Directed by: Michael Schultz Very  accomplished before this movie. TONS of TV work. Directed Sgt. Peppers  Lonely Heart Club Band, a movie that includes music from the Beatles  album and Abbey Road set in a music comedy starring The Bee Gees.  Oh  and of course the 1976 classic Car Wash. Written by: Louis Venosta (no wiki) Produced by: Rupert Hitzig and Berry Gordy We  gotta talk about Barry Gordy. He is a legend. In fact, that is an  understatement. There are few people as important as Berry Gordy. He  discovered The Miracles. Then, with some coaching from The Miracles lead  singer Smoky Robinson, he founded Motown Records. He would then go on  to produce, write or compose music for The Temptations, The Supremes,  Marvin Gaye, The Commodores, Stevie Wonder, The Jackson 5, and Gladys  Knight & The Pips. Starring Taimak as Leroy Green Vanity as Laura Charles Julius J. Carry III as Sho’nuff / The Shogun of Harlem Chris Murney as Eddie Arkadian Leo O’Brien as Richie Green Faith Prince as Angela Viracco Feedback Got some feedback? Contact Us.

154 - The Last Dragon

We go so much great feedback from our last “You Should Watch It”, we  decided to make it a regular addition to the podcast. We love it because  it allows us to venture deep into the archives and find classics that  are just outside of our action wheelhouse. This episode is exactly one of those situations. We don’t normally  cover scifi and we’ve NEVER done a horror movie. So, why not both?  Melissa and Dominic are huge horror fans (anyone want our Shudder  login?) and were right at home with a classic horror with amazing  practical effects. John is the scifi geek and loves the flamethrower  cops in special suits running around the sewers. Oh yeah, and its got a fantastic cast! We love C.H.U.D. as much as we love Toxie and we think you’ll love it too. Movie info Premiered: August 31, 1984 Directed by: Douglas Cheek Written by: Parnell Hall & Shepard Abbott This basically boils down to it was made by a bunch of nobodies who  somehow cobbled together an AMAZING cast and delivered a fantastic  monster movie. Starring John Heard as George Cooper Daniel Stern as A.J. “The Reverend” Shepherd Christopher Curry as Captain Bosch Kim Greist as Lauren Daniels J.C. Quinn as Murphy Michael O’Hare as Fuller Peter Michael Goetz as Gramps Sam McMurray as Officer Crespi Frankie R. Faison as Sgt.

Go With The Heat 153 – You Should Watch It: C.H.U.D.

Listen, I’m going to be totally honest with you. This movie is a stinker. Jeff Wincott is not the next star, no matter what martial arts magazine says it. BUT… We have a TON of fun with this movie! Its

Go With The Heat 152 – Deadly Bet

We said the new format would give us new opportunities and we’re taking advantage of that this episode! When John mentioned that there was an action movie with a young George Clooney on jet skis, we knew there was no

Go With The Heat 151 – You Should Watch It: Red Surf

There was absolutely no way we were going to cover karate movies and not have a JCVD feature. If you haven’t noticed, we are HUUUUGE JCVD fans and in reality we could probably make an entire season just about his

Go With The Heat 150 – Bloodsport

We told you when we switched from Miami Vice over to the greatest action movies it also meant we could take the podcast in new directions not available previously. Well, here’s one of those experiments. John found some gold and

Go With The Heat 149 – John Explains: Mythica

This movie came out of left field. None of us had ever seen it before, but we are WELL ACQUAINTED with Don “The Dragon” Wilson. So, somehow all EIGHT of these movies fell just outside our radar. You know what?

Go With The Heat 148 – Bloodfist

After all the planning and hype, we’re finally here to our first movie of season 2 of the reformatted podcast. There was absolutely no way we weren’t gonna start with Seattle karate, which as you know is the best karate.

Go With The Heat 147 – No Retreat, No Surrender

An enthusiasts podcast for the cultural phenomenon that was Miami Vice. Each week Dominic, John, and Melissa break down an episode of Miami Vice starting at episode 1 and running through the entire course of the show.
