Karen and Greg are husband and wife. But back in 1995, they were 11 and 12 and total strangers. For the first time ever, they're watching 1995's biggest films together and discussing what they thought of them back as pre-teens, and what they think of them now as post-teens.

Let's Be Talking About "Let's Be Cops" — A 1995 And Reality Alternative Special (01:38:44)
America needs to laugh right now. Will they be able to with "Let's Be Cops"? Hosts from Reality Alternative and 1995 The Podcast join together (with special addition Shea) to dissect the film in what's been called "the podcast of the quarantine."
Get Shorty (00:36:47)
It's Karen's week, and she chose "Get Shorty" despite the fact that she's never watched it before. Karen and Greg also manage to have a long conversation about "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," in case you care about other movies they watch outside of the podcast.
Jury Duty (00:42:44)
It's Greg's week on the podcast, and he chose Jury Duty — a film that neither Greg or Karen has seen before. Will Pauly Shore win them over? Probably not. But at least this movie has a dog in it.
Clueless (00:43:16)
Karen figured that it was about time to rewatch "Clueless." Or, maybe she just wanted to see if Paul Rudd aged at all since 1995. (He didn't. ) She also confesses that she had no clue what a bong was back then, and might not fully know today. Listen in!
Home For The Holidays (00:51:21)
Greg chose the Holly Hunter film "Home for the Holidays" because it's festive. It also has Robert Downey Jr. in it! And he's shockingly the worst. Happy Thanksgiving.
The Baby-Sitters Club (00:53:45)
The time has come. Karen introduces Greg to "The Baby-Sitters Club," and without spoiling too much... it's not his favorite.
Johnny Mnemonic (00:52:37)
Greg and Karen watch "Johnny Mnemonic," which stars Keanu Reeves as a sexy data robot man. Spoiler alert: There's also a dolphin in this movie, which Greg needs to point out is not real. (And a Dolph Lundgren, who *is* real.)
Kids (00:52:53)
It's actually a little hard to find a copy of the 1995 film "Kids" that doesn't cost over $40 on Amazon, but Karen and Greg made it happen. Is the movie as awful and scary as we were lead to believe back then? Is it a documentary? (The answer to the latter is no, but you'll have to listen to find out the first part.)
Tommy Boy (00:52:43)
Welcome to the last podcast episode with Greg's old voice! Right before heading into surgery, Greg chose to watch "Tommy Boy" for the podcast. Listen in if you want to reminisce, or just hear a lot of random banter about John Cusack films. (John Cusack was not in this movie.)
Friday (00:42:00)
It's episode number 23! And what better way to celebrate than with "Friday." Greg watched this movie a bunch as a kid, but for Karen, it's her first time viewing. Will she become a lifelong Ice Cube fan? Will she refrain from laughing at the name DJ Pooh? Listen in and see for yourself.
Stuart Saves His Family (00:46:17)
How could Greg assume that Karen, a noted Saturday Night Live fanatic, has never seen Stuart Saves His Family before? Probably because it was known as a box-office flop. Listen in to see if this Al Franken flick is worthy of a rewatch after all these years.
Mallrats (00:49:38)
Despite being from New Jersey, Karen never saw "Mallrats" in its entirety, and figured the podcast was a good reason to finally watch. Meanwhile, Greg has a revelation about movies from his home state of Delaware.
Batman Forever (00:43:19)
In the 20th episode of "1995 The Podcast," Greg chooses to watch "Batman Forever," which Karen has never seen. Be prepared for a lot of spontaneous Googling, along with details regarding the resume of Marky Mark Wahlberg.
Jumanji (00:47:55)
After a lengthy break and one spontaneous back surgery, Karen and Greg have returned to chat about 1995 films. This week is "Jumanji" with the notable and wonderful Bonnie Hunt — does it live up to the hype, or is it one big disappointment?
Canadian Bacon (00:45:24)
We all love John Candy, right? This movie was his last theatrical release and chosen by Karen to discuss this week. Other topics discussed in this podcast include light politics, fast food, chain restaurants, and spin-off shows featuring Kevin Pollak.
Se7en (00:49:19)
You might know it as "Se7en" or perhaps you recall it best as "Seven". No matter what, this Brad Pitt hit was a Greg Park favorite back in the day. Will Karen run out screaming when they show the character who represents Sloth? You have to listen to find out.
Showgirls (00:53:31)
What happens when you're a '90s star who wants to change your image entirely? You star in the 1995 film "Showgirls" and see what happens next. Karen and Greg have both never seen the iconic film before. Will Karen be able to view "Saved By The Bell" reruns the same way afterward? Only time will tell.
The Brady Bunch Movie (00:47:23)
In a surprise choice, as it has nothing to do with spies or magicians or car chases, Greg chose "The Brady Bunch Movie" this week, which brings up a lot of fond memories for both hosts. But is it still funny today? Who knows. Listen to find out!
Theodore Rex (00:48:51)
Happy New Year! For the first podcast of 2019, Karen forces Greg to watch this Whoopi Goldberg dinosaur detective film that was so bad, it got pulled from having a theatrical release. After watching, Greg curses a lot! Listen in and hear why (or, if) this movie is worth watching.
A Holiday To Remember (00:55:29)
Greg and Karen watch a made-for-TV movie starring Connie Sellecca and Randy Travis for the very first time, and boy, it's a trip. If you're a fan of Hallmark movies, this will be a very special episode for you indeed. If you're not a fan, you should watch along anyway as it's a special kind of terrible. Merry Christmas.
The Usual Suspects (00:41:45)
Even though it's much tougher to view Kevin Spacey the same way we did back in 1995, Greg chose "The Usual Suspects" as he enjoyed it a lot growing up. Karen, meanwhile, didn't even know there was a "twist" involved. Listen in, and see if she can figure it all out.
Now and Then (00:46:28)
Greg and Karen watch "Now and Then" and talk about how important it is to have women-lead coming-of-age movies and safeguards around your storm drains.
GoldenEye (00:48:20)
Noted James Bond Fan Greg chose GoldenEye as this week's movie, and it's tough for Karen to actually stay awake due to an experimental diet. They also talk about parental deception and broccoli, because why not?
Babe (00:46:23)
In order to lighten the mood, Karen chose to watch "Babe," which Greg has never seen. Since talking animal films are much more common today, is "Babe" not as sweet as Karen imagined? And what will Greg think of the sheepdog hijinx? All of your questions will be answered, and more, in the ninth episode of 1995 The Podcast.
Lord of Illusions (00:50:00)
Greg chooses a spooky film favorite for Halloween, and it's scary on levels Karen never expected. This also marks Karen's first Scott Bakula movie, which is exciting on a whole other level.
