🚨 FIVE MINUTES!

This Friday you can see - SEE - the Hip Pocket trio as we do a live podcast for the @chattfilmfest.org. Like Judge Doom said, “my god, it’ll be beautiful.” @itsthehippocket.bsky.social

On Friday morning, we're releasing a special "live" episode of THE HIP POCKET with special guest Peter Filardi that is part of the Chattanooga Film Festival. But Patreon supporters can lay their ears on a special sneak peek right now...

Highly unlikely, friend.

You’ve got an open invitation to come on anytime you like.

Our @chattfilmfest.org special episode with Peter Filardi (FLATLINERS, THE CRAFT, DAMN HANDY) goes live this Friday! And the best part? You don’t need a fest pass to watch. ⭐️

Our first ten guests for season three of THE HIP POCKET have almost all given us their lists now and hoooooleeee shit, guys, we're going to have so much fun.

Season 2 is in the books, and we just wanted to say thanks to everyone who’s been tuning in. THANKS!

Season 3 will be here soon, but you won’t have to miss us too much: we’ve got a @chattfilmfest.bsky.social x @itsthehippocket.bsky.social collab episode coming up in June. 🤘

The Hip Pocket #212 - Brian Duffield Our season finale is our most personal conversation so far

I am so proud of this season of THE HIP POCKET. Our final episode is out today, and our guest is writer/director Brian Duffield.

Tomorrow.

Some people like to say there is no such thing as a perfect movie. They are wrong.

First I listened to @itsthehippocket.bsky.social with @thejoelynch.bsky.social. Then I watched Joe’s 311 - Time Bomb. Now all I need is a good @fthismovie.bsky.social #JuNeSpLOItaTIoN calendar day to watch SHORT TIME with Dabney Coleman, Teri Garr & Matt Frewer and I’ll have hit the movie trifecta.

Kevin Biegel arrived and chaos ensued.

USA iconoclastic actor/director Dennis Hopper was BOTD in 1936 & died in 2010 at 74. He was married 5x & said to be one of Hollywood's most notorious drug addicts, which is saying a lot. His greatest films as a director was "Out of the Blue" (1980) followed by "Easy Rider" (1969)

Mike picked three sweet, wonderful movies, and Craig’s choice is a sketch anthology banger that I wish I saw decades ago. New @itsthehippocket.bsky.social - stick it in your ears! (Respectfully.)

The Hip Pocket #208 - Mike Mitchell Time to pup some pupcorn and talk movies with the Spoonman

I love this week's episode. Our guest could not have picked a better trio of movies.

drewmcweeny.substack.com/p/the-hip-po...

@drewmcweeny.com after listening to the Hip Pocket I have finally come up with my 3 choices, all 80’s edition! If you have written or talked about any of these films, please point me to that. I’d love to know what your thoughts are on them. I have much to say about them too.

Set your alarm. We’re back! 🚨

So... I've missed having new HIP POCKET episodes every Friday. How about we do that for the next six weeks?

We're going to jump back into our second season with an old friend of mine. Well, he's younger than me, but that means he's still old... just not quite that old. And he picked three good'uns.

The Hip Pocket hosts just virtually attended Yo Gabba Gabba’s Coachella set together, and though each host had a different experience, it’s safe to say each host is forever changed. 🌵🎸

The Hip Pocket #38: TOP SECRET! We say a very silly goodbye to a giant

Added a new film to The Hip Pocket collection today for what should be fairly obvious reasons.

It’s the perfect time to catch up on the first five episodes of season two. We’ll be releasing the back half of the season and some bonus episodes for Patreon soon!

One of the best moments of the season: all three of us and our guest break into this exact line, at the same time, unplanned. The episode drops soon!

The Hip Pocket #206 - Bear McCreary Rock music plus symphonic score equals one of our best conversations yet

It's time! It's time! It's here! It's here!

Thank you to the @itsthehippocket.bsky.social squad for inviting me to chat about three of my favorite movies, and introducing me to a new favorite!

My goal was to make everyone cry by talking about SUMMER HOURS and I thiiiiiink I did it.
