Matinee Heroes

Matinee Heroes is a podcast dedicated to exploring hero cinema - from adventurers, heroes, and superheroes; from Jedi to buddy cops; from the Wild West, to the distant past, to futures both hopeful and dystopian, from ancient lands to the deepest reaches of outer space. In a time when we need heroes more than ever, Alan and Craig will try to understand just what makes our cinematic heroes tick, and how we can use that heroism in our everyday life.

SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT

The story of a fun-loving, fast-talking trucker who takes on his craziest haul yet - delivering 400 cases of Coors Beer from Texarkana to Atlanta in just 28 hours. With Sheriff Buford T. Justice hot on his trail and eager to teach him some respect for the law, the Bandit joins forces with good ol' boy, Cledus and runaway bride Frog for one of the most charming movies ever made.

Craig and Alan talk community, libertarianism, and Super Bowl traffic in Houston on this week's Matinee Heroes.
