  • The Retirement Plan (2023)
    Nov 15 2023

    It's been a long time coming. And a quick time leaving...our memory banks. 
    Brock and Brian have waited ages and ages for The Retirement Plan to be released. Did it live up to expectations?
    Speaking of "live," the boys did a little sneaky and decided to record an episode live, together, and in person during their latest bromantic getaway. 
    They catch up on running, and not running. And then they draft their own Retirement Plans, if you will. And they will. 

    Let's get into it!

  • Episode 101 - Sympathy for the Devil (2023)
    Aug 29 2023

    I bet you thought 100 Episodes was enough, didn't ya? Didn't ya? Did you not?!?
    Welp, Nic keeps making 'em, so we'll keep gauging 'em. 
    Brock and Brian catch each other up with their movements over the past few months, bowel and otherwise. 
    They pay homage to the in-movie diner with a food draft. 
    And then they talk about this friggin' movie, the cat-and-mouse, two-hander, bottle film that was 2023's Sympathy for the Devil. 

    Now pick a card, and don't interrupt us. It's vewy wude. 

    Stay tuned for future regular episodes as we plan to watch and gauge the Shrekiverse while waiting for Nic's next batch of films.

  • Episode 100 - Renfield (2023)
    May 1 2023

    You asked for it*! A fantastical event a century (worth of episodes) in the making. 
    *You likely didn't.

    For the 100th episode, the boys reminisce, they look ahead, and they break down the 2023 horror-action-comedy Renfield. Along the way, they craft the perfect Nic-enstein's Monster's Monster. They answer the important questions: Did it suck? Did Nic get better at playing a vampire this time around? Would Dracula win in a fight against Peter Loew (Vampire's Kiss. I'll feed ya, baby birds.)? 

    All of these questions are answered and then some. 

    Thank you, loyal listeners. We couldn't have done this without you*!
    *We probably would have still done this, without you...

  • Episode 99 - The Old Way (2023)
    Mar 26 2023

    New Episode. Old Way?!?
    It's been a while. A long long while. But the blame must be placed solely on Nic Cage and his various production companies (we're looking at you, Saban...) for the lack of content by which to gauge Nic. 
    Anywho, Brock and Brian dusted off their dusters, grew out their disgusting mustaches, and holstered their six shooters to discuss Nic's foray into Western fare. 
    How did they fare? Tune in and find out as the boys catch up, discuss a new addition to the Ambrosii menagerie, and draft everybody's most-debated topic: Vegetables. 

    Potayto. Potahto. Let's call the whole thing off!

  • Episode 98 - Saturday Night Live (1992)
    Aug 14 2022

    You asked (?) for it, you got it! Brock and Brian knocked the dust off of their microphones and recorded an episode by the people, for the people. 
    While waiting for Nic's projects to get edited, the boys dug back into a 1992 Saturday Night Live episode that Nic hosted. 
    Before that, they discuss their boys' night out, and draft Favorite Fruits!

    What a treat!

  • Bonus Episode - Paddington 2 (2017)
    May 30 2022

    Look, folks. If it's good enough for Nick Cage's and Javi's Top 3, it has to be good enough for this podcast to watch whilst waiting for the next Nicolas Cage movie, right? Right?!?!?

    Live and in person and alive and too personal, Brock joins Brian for a recap of the week that was, and the movie that was-n't....that....great. That film was 2017's Paddington 2. The boys answer the tough questions: 
    -Did they need to watch the first movie? 
    -Did they fall in love with this CGI bear?
    -Does this film make them want to be better men?
    -Was this seriously Hugh Grant's favorite movie to film?
    -Did this movie need more Nic Cage?

    Listen, up, you silly little bears. This is We Gauge Cage's Movie Tastes!

  • Episode 97 - The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022)
    Apr 24 2022

    Looks like we made it. Look how far we've come, my babies. 
    That's right. You didn't really think we could quit the podcast without holding out for the Nic Cage film in which Nicolas Cage plays Nick Cage in a film about Nicolas Cage, did you?!?

    On this episode, Brian and Brock discuss their opening-weekend, theatre-going experience to watch the meta movie The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. 

    Before that, the lads recap their Easter weekends, and they provide their lists of the Five Essential Nic Cage Movies to Watch Before Seeing The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. 

    It's no masterpiece on par with Paddington 2....but it'll get you where you're going, and meet you where you're at. 

    Bon voyage!
