Leave it to an Aussie living in Canada to commission the most anti-intellectual American truckerfest we've ever covered on "Shat The Movies." Listener Fabian threw in his hard-earned green stamps to request "Over The Top," Sylvester Stallone's 1987 attempt to recapture the magic of "Rocky." Rotten Tomatoes shat on Stallone's attempts to make a movie about arm wrestling that reveals a deeper tale of father-son bonding. But we see the beauty in this old rig, as Roger recounts stories of his truck-driving father, Gene drops some military school knowledge, and real-life daddy Big D frets about child safety. The Shat Crew also discover what ram-raiding is, explore arm wrestling tournament rules, gasp at the gratuitous product placement, and rock out to a killer soundtrack that includes Kenny Loggins, Sammy Hagar, and synth community darling Giorgio Moroder.  Plus, hear Roger Roeper's theory that grandpa Jason Cutler (Robert Loggia) actually is a drug kingpin. And get Gene Lyons' review of the questionable fashions on display as he and Roger haul cross-country for love, victory, and a void where their dads used to be.  SUBSCRIBE a FOLLOW Android:http://shatthemovies.com/android Apple/iTunes:http://shatthemovies.com/itunes Social Media:Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat Website:http://shatthemovies.com/ HELP SUPPORT THE PODCAST Donate with Paypal:http://shatthemovies.com/paypal Donate With Venmo:https://venmo.com/shatpodcasts Get Podcast Merchandise: http://shatthemovies.com/shop Shop Amazon With Our Affiliate Link: https://www.amazon.com/?tag=shatmovies-20 Sponsor's Listener Survey:http://shatthemovies.com/survey Leave an iTunes Review:http://shatthemovies.com/review Vote for our Next Movies:http://shatthemovies.com/vote Feeds a Social Media:http://shatthemovies.com/subscribe-and-follow Leave a Voicemail:(914) 719-SHAT - (914) 719-7428 Email:hosts@shatthemovies.com Listen to our TV Podcasts:https://shatontv.com/shat-on-podcasts Theme Song - Die Hard by Guyz Nite:https://www.facebook.com/guyznite
