Introducing Jacking Off with Richie and Rebecca

It's the FIRST episode of Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie, the titular Rebecca (@AlmondMilkHotel) and Richie (@iAmRichieOwens) discuss the first TWO films of the titular Jack Black (@jackblack): Bob Roberts (1992) and Airborne (1993).

Rebecca and Richie go over the beginnings of Jack's career, from him playing a psychotic alt-right proud boy to him playing a loveable high school bully. What sort of nuggets of the man we all know and love do we see in young boy Jack? Do we also stan Seth Green? Why can't conservative people make good art? All of these questions and much more will be answered! Jack Off with us!

Bob Roberts is available to stream on Starz.
Airborne is available to rent on several platforms.

On this week’s Jacking Off, Rebecca and Richie briefly discuss some of Jack’s minor roles (Demolition Man, Bye Bye Love) and then do a deep dive on The NeverEnding Story III: Escape From Fantasia, and Jack’s one off role in The X-Files (Season 3, Episode 3).

What’s it like to watch the third installment of a movie when you haven’t seen the first two movies? What happens when Rock people sing Rock music? Is it okay to say that two child step siblings want to have sex with each other? Is making Giovanni Ribisi angry a good idea? Would you back up a friend on a murderous rampage?

All of these questions will be answered, PLUS Richie debuts a script! This week on Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie! Jack Off with us!

*SPLISH SPLASH* Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie is BACK and this time, they're not alone. The Two R's (cool right? just came up with that right now)welcome their FIRST guest, certified WET boy Ben Hosley (Blank Check). 

In this film, that is 100% a Jack Black movie and nothing else, the world that we currently know and love is actually covered in water because of the melting of the polar ice caps. 

Could you people of Waterworld have come up with a better name for their planet? How would this movie be better with more Jack Black? What would a sequel to this movie look like? All of these questions and much more will be answered this week on Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie. Jack Off with us!

Waterworld is available to stream on Starz. We mention it being on Hulu the whole episode, but I guess it got removed between recording and release. Whoops!

This week Rebecca and Richie aka The Two R’s take a seat in the electric chair for the incredibly serious 1995 film Dead Man Walking. 

Dead Man Walking represents the first Oscar film that Rebecca and Richie discuss (probably, have not double checked that.) Based on a true story, Dead Man Walking is about a nun who takes a personal interest in a death row inmate. 

Can Rebecca and Richie do Cajun accents? Is the death penalty good or is it actually bad? What is Sean Penn’s last meal? How many character actors can be in one film? Is Jack hot in this one? All of these questions and more will be answered on this week’s Jacking Off! Jack Off with Us!

Dead Man Walking is available to stream on Tubi, Kanopy, and Pluto TV.

This week the two R's (Rebecca and Richie, FYI) discuss Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin's nightmare of a movie called Bio-Dome. 

Bio-Dome is a movie about two horrible people who do horrible things and are incredibly popular. Due to the fact that music is featured so heavily in this movie, and that it marks Tenacious D's filmed debut, they decided to call on a resident rock: the man who was Born Hot, Chris Farren.

Is there anything redeemable about this movie? Does it say anything about anything? Is it an LGBTQ icon? What are Rebecca and Richie's 5 Needs? Does Tenacious D like Pauly Shore? Does Chris Farren have a podcast? How much money does he make on tour? All of these questions will be answered and more on this week's Jacking Off! Jack Off with us!

If you want to punish yourself... Bio-Dome is streaming on Amazon Prime.

The interview with Chris comes in at 54:16!

On this week's Jacking Off, the Two R's are joined by The Megan Stalter Show's very own Megan Stalter! 

Listen as the gang discuss Ben Stiller's comedy that should have been advertised as a horror movie, The Cable Guy! Featuring the one and only Jack Black as Rick.

Is this the first movie where Jack Black gets to be Jack Black? Did Jim Carrey get paid too much or just the right amount? Do we hear Ben or Jim talking in the phone call to the police? Did Megan watch the entire movie? Does Jack rock an incredible outfit in this movie?

All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Jacking Off! Jack Off with us! 

You can find The Cable Guy on iMDb TV, Sony... Crackle?, and Fubo? Are these subscription services real? Yes!

On this week’s Jacking Off the two R’s discuss a psychological thriller called The Fan!

Robert DeNiro is a baseball fan. Wesley Snipes is a baseball player. Robert DeNiro goes crazy! 

They’re joined by California baseball fan Aubrey Bellamy to cover the bases of this movie that Jack Black is in for 5 minutes or less!

Do Aubrey and Richie argue about their baseball alliances? Is Wesley Snipes any good at baseball? Will Bobby say “hey” back? All of these questions and more will be answered on this week’s Jacking Off! Jack off with us!

On this week's Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie, they discuss Tim Burton's ode to Ed Wood that ISN'T Ed Wood, Mars Attacks! And they're joined by an out of this world guest, the one and only Joe Rumrill!

When Earth is attacked by Aliens, it's up to Jack Black to stop it! (Not really, it's more complicated than that.)

What language do they speak in the Ukraine? Will Jack be problematic in Jumanji 2? Where was Richie when he saw Blank Check? Do Richie and Joe know Lucas Haas from the Black Parade music video? Is there a scene in this movie where a dog gets it? Do they talk about the pussy Posse? Is Kevin Nealon hot? What’s Martin Short’s book called? What Jack Black movie would they show the Martians? Is the Zahnaissance nearing? All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Jacking Off!

Mars Attacks (w/ Joe Rumrill)

This week the Two R's do a double feature I guess you could call it! But it's not two MOVIES. Oh no, my friend. HELL no. They in fact talk about one movie (The Jackal) and one TV show (Mr. Show). And both of these things have one thing in common. Can you guess what it is that they have in common? If you said they both have Jack Black then he*l yeah you're right as hel*. 

Did Richie watch all of The Jackal? Does Richard Gere do convincing accent work? Is Jack Black the only shining diamond in an ocean of turds (The Jackal we're talking about here)? Can Bruce Willis put on more wigs? What is an insolent minx? What's the best Mr. Show sketch that Jack was in? All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Jacking Off! Come Jack Off with us!

Both The Jackal and Mr. Show are available for streaming on HBO!

The Jackal & Mr. Show

This week, the Two R's go over a little known, seldom seen, Jack Black movie called Johnny Skidmarks. And yes. It's a noir-drama. Or at least it attempts to be!

They're joined by Harris Mayersohn (follow him on letterboxd) to go over what works and what doesn't work in this insane movie that nobody has seen, even though it's very easy to!

Is anybody cast correctly in this movie? Do they at least justify calling it Johnny Skidmarks? Does Jack Black out act Frances McDormand? Is this the Breathless of our generation? Do the two R's have new ideas for taglines for this movie? All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Jacking Off! Come Jack Off with us!

Johnny Skidmarks is on HBO Go, and also YouTube in High Quality for some reason lol.

*Water bubbling* cough cough cough uhhhh this week I GUESS Rebecca and Richie are watching friggen Bongwater (1998) which is a movie you will NOT understand if you’re not a stoner, okay?? It is also unfortunately one of the most IMPORTANT films covered yet!! You might be wondering what this movie with a stacked cast of soon to be indie darlings is all about and you know what, The Two Rs would also like to know!!

Are Rebecca and Richie narcs? Is this the worst movie they’ve had to watch? Is it Halloween? Was Jamie Kennedy in Ad Astra? What’s the best way to grow a tomato? Why do white people love to throw things? What happens when she’s not a manic pixie dream girl but an actual living nightmare? Does anything make sense? Can Luke Wilson’s hotness save a movie? Are you zooted?

All these questions and more will be answered if you’d just Jack Off with us!! 

This is the third movie that is completely on youtube. Also Amazon Prime.

And don’t forget, “Crazy women and stoner dudes. What a mellow life”

Bongwater

This week, the two R’s discuss one of Jack Black’s uncredited roles in the late 90’s horror sequel I Still Know What You Did Last Summer.

When Jennifer Love Hewitt’s character from the last movie is paranoid about being stalked by the guy she thought she killed in the last movie, a surprise prize trip to the Bahamas makes her hope to get the OTHER two R’s (rest and relaxation). But unfortunately that’s not the case as you cannot run from your past. 

Do the two R’s know what they did last summer? Do they know what’s scary? Which of the cast members of this movie are mentioned in the hit Eminem song “Lose Yourself”? Which of the R’s used to call into a radio station frequently? Is Freddie Prinze Jr. doing a voice? What do you call a person from the Bahamas? Will the two R’s survive? Is it hard to google “Brandy Butt”? Do you gotta be sh*ttin me? 

All of these questions and more will be answered on this week’s Jacking Off!

Come Jack Off with us!

You can watch this movie on Sony Crackle, “the bad streaming service.”

This week on Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie, the two R’s discuss Tim Robbins’ 1999 film Cradle Will Rock. A movie that has a lot going on and nothing going on at the same time.

What happens when Richie has control of the board? Does anything good happen with one of the most incredible ensembles ever made? What do you mean no? Is Rebecca a better singer than Emily Watson? Does the most epic meet up of two actors happen in this movie? Do people know it happened? Is Susan Sarandon’s Italian accent racist? What happens in this movie?

Cradle Will Rock

This week The Two Rs (a nickname vocalized in this ep for the very first time) are back and kicking off the decade with a BIG OLD TRIGGER WARNING because boy oh boy are they talking about heroin and overdoses a LOT in this episode!! Something about Rebecca is that she hates heroin and Richie agrees it's bad but despite making them both watch people shoot up multiple times, this movie is actually very good and enjoyable!! 

How is it possible for Billy Crudup to be so fucking good looking? Is this the only time Jack Black has worked with a female director? Is this a weird precursor to Dewey Finn and also a sequel/better version of Bongwater? Are we obsessed with this movie? Who the HELL is SLOOPY?? 

All this and more in the first episode of 2020!! And also one of the last episodes before we get to the the real JUICE of that JB career!! 

This movie is not streaming anywhere except there IS a good quality "not legal" stream you can find if you do some digging. Don't do drugs!

Jesus' Son

On this week's episode of Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie, the two R's dive deep on the legendary Dan Harmon & Rob Schrab pilot "Heat Vision And Jack". A bandit former astronaut and his talking motorcycle best friend can never stop running from their past.

Do the two R's explain to you what a pilot is? Does Richie try to convince Rebecca to watch Community like so many white men that came before him? Is this the first project Jack was in where he earned a romantic kiss? Are they looking to the sky to save them? Looking for a sign of life? Looking for something to help them burn out bright? 

All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie! Jack Off with us!

Uhhhhh does your Top 5 Desert Island All Time Best Podcasters list include Richie Owens, Rebecca Bulnes, and/or inventor of podcasting about movies, DAVID SIMS??? Well then BOY do we got an episode for you!! 

This week Richie and Rebecca are feeling so blessed to have finally arrived at the juice of Jack Black’s career (the 2000s) and to do so with Simsy himself? That is simply rock and roll.

This week's Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie is all about the early 2000's horny man movie Saving Silverman which brings Jack Black and Steve Zahn together! And they're joined by the one and only Blythe Roberson (How To Date Men When You Hate Men) to dissect the symbol heavy film. 

When Jason Bigg's character starts a relationship with Amanda Peet's rude character, Steve Zahn's character and Jack Black's character kidnap Amanda Peet's rude character so Jason Bigg's character can date Amanda Detmer's character instead. Hijinks ensue.

Does this movie hold up? Did it ever? Do the women on this podcast (Rebecca and Blythe) like this movie a little more by the end of this episode? Do they mention the fact that this movie was remade in India under the name "Thotti Gang"? (No! Damn!) Is Richie problematic for liking this movie? Did Jack borrow anything from Neil Diamond? Does Richie have a very good joke for Blythe that he practiced a lot in his apartment? 

All of these questions and more will be answered this week on Jacking Off with Rebecca and Richie! Come Jack Off with us!

On this week's episode of Jacking Off, the two R's talk Jack's problematic *hit* comedy, Shallow Hal with Fran Hoepfner (Bright Wall/Dark Room, The Onion, everywhere you find writing). 

When Hal (Jack Black) is confronted by Tony Robbins (Tony Robbins), he begins to see the inner beauty in some really freakin ugly people. That's the whole movie!

Do they have to start the podcast over because they forgot to record the first 15 minutes? Does the chaotic energy from having to start over ever really calm itself down? Did this movie make everybody's lives worse? Is there anything to like about this movie? What is Richie's favorite line? Does love go where Rosemary grows?

All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Jacking Off. Come Jack Off with us!

Shallow Hal (w/ Fran Hoepfner)

This week R&R are joined via Zoom by (naturally funny, did not take improv classes) co-creator of HBO’S Animals, maker of horny books, rock and roll sweetie Phil Matarese!! They’re talking about Tenacious D’s first album called...you guessed it….“Tenacious D”.....and a bit on their short lived HBO show that preceded it. What are Phil, Richie, and Rebecca’s top 3 songs of the album? What is the one track they’d each skip? What is this, High Fidelity actually?? What is this album really about? Why does it rock so hard? How influential was it? Would The D be successful even without Jack’s rising star as an actor? How much butt stuff is in the album and can we talk about Hard Fucking?
