ADHD-DVD
ADHD-DVD is a movie podcast about physical media, with hosts Justin Morissette & Hayley Leier. Each week we convene to discuss a movie we’ve long owned but never actually seen… until now. Watching the movies we bought and forgot. New episodes every Friday.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #54: Tombstone
This week we're headed to the desert in hopes the dry air will ease our sufferin'... and hell's coming with us, as we watch 1993's Tombstone.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #53: The Candidate (with John Cameron)
We begin a new year of the show this week, and kick off the campaign by welcoming These Estates and Oiseaux musician and Briarpatch publisher John Cameron for an unseen selection from his collection, a prescient political satire that is now 52 years old but could release today with few alterations and still feel timely. It's 1972's The Candidate.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #52: Tango & Cash
We're celebrating one full year of being unlikely partners on the podcast beat by finally getting around to what we've been told is one of the all-time great buddy cop movies. Yes it's 1989's Tango & Cash.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #51: A Knight’s Tale
This week, he will, he will rock you as we begin the first themeless month on the pod in quite a while with a movie that Hayley has seen north of 50 times and Justin has never seen before now. It's 2001's A Knight's Tale.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #50: Sleeping With Other People
This week we're wrapping up February Is For Lovers with another potential entry to the podcast canon, as we dip our toes into rom-com waters for the first time this month with a movie that very much aspires to be a modern take on classic Nora Ephron material: it's 2015's Sleeping With Other People.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #49: Before Midnight
This week, it's trouble in paradise as we conclude the Before trilogy and keep it on brand with a big blow-up argument. Yes, February Is For Lovers continues with 2013's Before Midnight.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #48: Before Sunset (with Marc Staehling)
This week, we continue to stroll through Europe as we're joined by traffic anchor, physical media archivist and Vancouver film criticism scion Marc Staehling for an unseen entry from his collection: 2004's Before Sunset.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #47: Before Sunrise
This week we're getting off the train on a whim to walk-and-talk our way through Vienna, as February Is For Lovers begins with 1995's Before Sunrise.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #46: The Saint
This week, we're closing out an unsuccessful hunt with a movie about a man with no name, no identity, no family, and no reason to really be too interested in him as the main character of a film. Yes, it's 1997's The Saint.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #45: Clear and Present Danger
This week we are experiencing some technical difficulties because Apple absolutely wrecked my audio set-up with an unnecessary OS update that doesn't seem to have made anything better. That's beside the point, but I did want to apologize off the hop. Anyway. The Hunt For The American James Bond continues both in our hearts and on the show, as we dip our toes into the chilly waters of Lake Jack Ryan one last time with 1994's Clear and Present Danger.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #44: Patriot Games
This week as a schismatic sect is caught tunnelling underground in New York, we're dealing with a schismatic sect of the Irish variety, intent on burying themselves in pursuit killing of Jack Ryan. Yes, the hunt for the American James Bond continues with 1992's Patriot Games.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #43: The Hunt For Red October
This week, the hunt is on as we kick off the new year with a spy thriller from the director of Die Hard. It's 1990's The Hunt For Red October.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #42: Assault on Precinct 13 (2005)
For one last time in 2023, this week we ring out the old and ring in the new with a New Year's Eve-set dad-pandering actioner, the 2005 remake of John Carpenter's crime-horror classic Assault on Precinct 13.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #41: Steel (with E.J. Feddes)
MERRY SHAQMAS EVERYONE! We kick off a pod tradition with the First Annual Shaqmas Celebration on ADHD-DVD as returning guest and FED Talks host E.J. Feddes brings an unseen film from his collection with our man Shaquille in the lead role. It's 1997's Steel.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #40: Mission: Impossible
A DePalmber to ReMalmber reaches its thrilling conclusion as our intrepid director kicks off an action mega-franchise with an opening entry that's far more 'film' than 'flick' -- it's 1996's Mission: Impossible.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #39: Carlito’s Way
This week the dream don't come no closer by itself, as A DePalmber to ReMalmber continues with a movie that is in some ways a spiritual sequel to Scarface, and is in other ways laying out the formula for tension in the Mission: Impossible series that the director will kick off with his next project. It's 1993's Carlito's Way.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #38: Scarface (with J.D. Burke)
This week we say hello to the little friend as A DePalmber to ReMalmber begins with 1983's Scarface.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #37: Gremlins
We close out Dante's In Fer November with a movie that could not be better suited to Black Friday, an anti-capital, anti-consumerist screed with a sharp sense of humour that lands perfectly in that liminal space between Halloween and Christmas. It's 1984's Gremlins.
ADHD-DVD, Episode #36: Innerspace
This week, we take a fantastic voyage inside Martin Short, as Dante's In Fer November continues with 1987's Innerspace.
