The boys are back. After a long hiatus, Brandon and Kenny reunite to discuss what they've been up to, life ambitions, the pros and cons of owning a Tesla, and Christopher Walken's streaming television debut in Stephen Merchant's comedy/drama series "The Outlaws," in which Walken plays an eccentric criminal performing community service with a ragtag group of colorful characters. 

Before getting into the topic at hand, Brandon reads some obscure facts about Christopher Walken from the book "Christopher Walken: A to Z." They close out the podcast by talking about movies they've seen lately.

Brandon and Kenny again attempt to end their Walken 101 journey by continuing the finale, only to find that they still have much more to talk about. Topics include: child-rearing, Kenny's new Tesla, Derek G. Breu's Paul Thomas Anderson-length buddy cop movie, and Brandon and Kenny's Top 5 lists of Walken movies, from good to bad to weird. 

NOTE: the audio quality is a little janky because we were recording over Zoom at the same time in hopes to upload a companion video for clips we were watching. Something went wrong and Kenny lost all of his recorded audio, so the audio you hear is taken from the Zoom call. We also lost our top 5 lists of favorite scenes, which we hope to revisit next episode.

#141 - The Finale (part 2)

Brandon and Kenny begin to unload a mountain of information and content to wrap up this historically nonsensical podcast, in which they've personally watched every Christopher Walken project in chronological order over a period of four years. 

After scouring for updates on Chet Hanks and discussing their own ideal White Boy Summers, they give shoutouts to the loyal Ronnies and read some kind messages from them and other fans. 

Brandon then gets Kenny's reactions on a detailed analysis of Christopher Walken's films according to various film review websites, and provides some top critics choices as well as some stinkers. They discuss what movies belong on these lists, and which ones don't. 

Brandon then goes through a spreadsheet he made, highlighting some odd/unique/stupid Christopher Walken memorabilia and fan-made artifacts on eBay, Etsy, and other websites. 

Realizing that they have too much to cover, Brandon and Kenny decide to extend the finale into a part two, but not before discussing a clip that they've never seen before from a 1971 historical reenactment series called "You Are There," in which Walken played a British officer attempting to stop Paul Revere and historic ride in 1775.
