Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre have a theory that any movie can be improved by using DMX’s hit “X Gon’ Give It to Ya.” This video puts that theory to the test.

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre watch maligned movies and find their silver linings. For the month of July, they are watching films starring musicians turned actors.
This week, they watch Cradle 2 the Grave, the 2003 action film starring Jet Li and DMX, who are both searching for “black diamonds” that aren’t what they seem.
Theme Song: “Bankin’” by Bronson Scott

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle remember the life of the truly one of a kind rap icon DMX.
DMX has come up a number of times before on the show, so they also revisit two of those times – 1.) Hobo Radio 332, where they discussed the phrase “Twice as butt” from “Where The Hood At?” and 2.) Joel’s interview with Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, where they explained how getting the rights to “X Got’ Give It To Ya” was like an episode of Law and Order.
They also vent their frustrations with Netflix canceling shows prematurely and the Arclight Theaters closing.

The first teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens has been released and, as you’d imagine, Lars Periwinkle has some thoughts on it. He and Joel Murphy break down the trailer this week.
They also discuss DMX’s bafflingly homoerotic lyrics, the cavalier whitewashing of Hollywood films and why you shouldn’t do Jay-Z’s “99 Problems” for karaoke.
What is the most ridiculous lyric DMX ever wrote? Is there any way the trailer could have failed to get Lars excited for the new Star Wars? What’s the point of the little red pointy things on the side of the villain’s lightsaber? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
