Red Dawn

Exciting and New

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Doug on for the first time as we all discuss the 1984 action war movie Red Dawn. In this sequel to the Outsiders, Pony Boy and his brother Darry take up arms against those dastardly Ruskies (and some assorted Cubans and Nicaraguans) as World War 3 is fought on American soil. Does it make sense that the Russians invaded the middle of America? No. Does it make sense that a bunch of kids with hunting rifles outflank the Russian army for over a year? No. Does it make sense that Jed announced his presence allowing the Russian to shoot him before he unloaded into that commie? No. But did we have fun discussing this awesome Brat Pack-adjacent movie? Heck yes we did. WOLVERINES!!! Enjoy the podcast.
