Episode 693: The Top Ten of 1985

All things must come to an end, and that's our mantra as we head into the fall with the final snippet of our Summer Series... joining Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl to wrap up the summer long Top 10s is non other than the Podfather himself, the reason GOLverse exists, its Steve Glosson!

We spend a few finding out how the GOLverse is doing, Glosson fills us in on what's next, then we take a look at 1985... which celebs are turning 40 this year... who died in October of 1985... then a quick rundown at the box office winners and Oscar winners.

And then - the top ten of the year.  We got Coen Brothers... Albert Brooks... James Bond... Michael J Fox doing double duty... visiting the Goondocks... Garrison's recommendations... a vampire Chris Sarandon... wanting your two dollars... catching up with Mark Holton... Mahoney and his crew... ending the Cold War... Harrison Ford and the Amish... and debating on whether Adrian Balboa was a great inspiration or the worst thing in Rocky IV.

And what better way to bare the soul than to do it with friends... Terrance Malick apologist, Witt Stillman fan and movie historian Dr Earl comes into talk about what is weighing on him, and Friend of the Show and Miss Independent Jeremy Burgess joins the group as well to discuss his movie confessions.
