"Does a spaceship make it sci-fi?" Come along with us for an episode that was originally recorded in January of 2021, deep in the throes of the pandemic. So, does this mean The Busy Dads are back? More will be revealed. What it DOES mean is
Have you ever seen a movie that you're not sure is good or not? Event after a few weeks, you're still like "was that good or was it just different?" Enter: THE JACKET. Continuing on with our time travel suite, we have this oft-forgotten gem
You know how you like a movie and then you dislike it and then you like it again? No? Only me? Ok. The Busy Dads take a weird transparent worm out the chest to Donnie Darko, the only good movie that Richard Kelly made. Enjoy! We take a “fly
I can't tell if Brad Pitt is a great actor or a terrible actor. It doesn't matter, because the Busy Dads are taking a trip from the not so distant future to the not so distant past. And, once again, Bruce Willis is along for the ride. Join us
Oh, so he is like playing Bruce Willis but Bruce Willis ISN'T playing Joseph Gordon Levitt? Hm. That hardly seems fair. In this episode, a continuation of our EPIC time travel suite, the Busy Dads take a look at the only good movie that Rian
When you've got a movie that has been consistently billed as the smartest time travel movie ever made, what else can you do but make fart jokes about it? The Busy Dads tackle the monster that is PRIMER in an episode that is sure to go down in h
What do you get when you cross Robert Patinson, outer space and a baby? Sounds like a fever nightmare I once had in 2006. Surprisingly, you get HIGH LIFE, a fantastic piece of meditative science fiction. Listen along as The Busy Dads step int
Come on now! I'm pretty sure that we've ALL slept with our own mothers at some point. Well, perhaps not to THAT extent. However, in this episode Kevin and George take a look at the amazing facts, incredibly coherent and occasionally incestuou
Remember that movie about the remnants of humanity stuck on a train and they had to constantly move on the train or they'd all freeze to death and Captain America and John Hurt and Ed Harris and Tilda Swinton were in it? What was that called?
Wow. Winter Break seemed extra long this year. Kevin and George (and Producer Vic) are BACK...from the dead? Maaaaaaaybe. More specifically, they are back with the brand of mediocre podcast that only two busy dads can bring you. Sit back, r
"Cockroaches." --Kevin In the third installment of our Inhuman Women Suite, Kevin and George take a look at the Jonathan Glazer flick UNDER THE SKIN. Scarlett Johannsen has come to Earth and she's seeking men to turn into intergalactic blood
"That's why I had to move out of Highland Park." --George Often a monster movie comes with a level of suspension of disbelief. At times, that level can be asking too much from an audience. The movie SPRING, from film making duo Justin Benso
"Let's just read the notes!" --Kevin IO is a Netflix original movie that we just couldn't. We take a “fly on the wall” approach to our listeners. As such, some of what we discuss falls into the realm of SPOILERS. Consider yourself warned.
"Subby Lawrence." --Kevin What is one of the worst things a movie can do? Is it when it's just bad? Is it when it's good but could be better? Perhaps both. However, as I write this, I find myself thinking that Robert Rodriguez's ALITA: B
Every once in a while you come across a movie that was birthed of a fantastic idea. No one really nurtured it by giving it a huge budget or a ton of publicity, but it didn't really matter. Perhaps the lack thereof is actually what propelled t
"Dondo!" --G Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse manages to have something that very few big screen adaptations of the wall-crawler have had: heart. I think that this is the only thing that the cross-dimensional versions of George and Kevin can
"I just don't think about it." --Theo CHILDREN OF MEN was a 2006 dystopian science fiction masterpiece that showed up what a slowly decaying world would look 20 years into a global plague in which no human can reproduce. This movie both haunt
"Fingerling potatoes." --Kevin Annihilation is an Alex Garland joint. We watched the movie. Some of us even read the book. Ok, one of us. It was Kevin. Let us know what you think, listening. Hit us up at busydadsdoscifi on Instagram or
"This could be our raciest episode. I said raciest." --Kevin The Busy Dads take a long, hard look at Boots Riley's SORRY TO BOTHER YOU, which in turn leads to a long, hard look at themselves and the world that we live in. Let us know what you
"I think the 15 pizzas are here." --Kevin John Carpenter's ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK is long considered a classic of 80s Sci-Fi and a gem of the cult movie genre. Kevin and George take a look at it and ask, without judgement, "why?" Come and give u
“Mark Twain.”–Kevin1996 might not be known as the best year in Science Fiction, or maybe it is. I don’t know. I didn’t exactly do any research on it. However it was the year that the Philip K. Dick short story SECOND VARIETY was adapted

"NOPE!" --George What does one talk about when everything that can possibly be talked about has been talked about? This is the dilemma that confronts the BUSY DADS as they take a long, hard (hah) look at STAR TREK 2: THE WRATH OF KHAN. A para
"INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER" Isn't that what we're all after? A meaningful answer. So, in lieu of our Wrath of Khan episode, we are instead going to be doing another dramatic reading of a great Science Fiction Short Story. Jo
