Hindsight is Horrifying steps into the garden with Being There (1979)!

Peter Sellers delivers one of his most iconic performances as Chance the gardener, a man raised on TV who accidentally becomes a political sage just by watching and repeating what he sees.

Darth, Adam, and Jason unpack the genius, the vibes, the amazing performances, and why this film's ending still leaves everyone debating.

Do you know when the ghosts ruled China?

Strange things are afoot in Antonio Bay…

New HINDSIGHT episode just dropped: John Carpenter’s THE FOG (1980)

Word on the street is that a ship was allegedly lured by a ghostly fog onto the rocks of Antonio Bay, causing said ship to supposedly be enveloped by a supernatural cloud…which maybe caused that ship to sink. As a result, some sailors died.

ALLEGEDLY.

Now, local myth says that when this mysterious fog returns, the sailor victims will rise up from the depths seeking vengeance on Adrienne Barbeau and Jamie Lee Curtis.

Watch now!

Some episodes raise questions. This one raises eyebrows and animated crushes.

Wait… AI didn’t resolve your questions about the father and child relationship? How so?

In the meantime, thank the goofiest person in your life who reminds you that the concept of “goofy” still exists. That is a wonderful reason to be happy.

We at HIH thought that we should officially announce that Mr. Brown has a thing for Velma, also known as brunettes with glasses. This is his cry for animated help.

Jade drops a Letterkenny “L.A.” joke, and Jason doesn’t get it.

We discuss Darth Jader’s animated crushes on this episode.

It doesn’t matter. On a scale of Schindler’s List to Disney, how do you spell “Hi, Dad,” soup? Find out when you tune in with your favorite weirdos.

Darth Jader would like to officially apologize, first and foremost. Her husband shot an M240B while he was in the infantry. She got the portion about the Stryker right and she cooks most of the time at home, so Josh forgives her, and Arnold Schwarzenegger would, too.

In the meantime…

Can YOU make the Predator noise? We didn’t think so, but neither can we. *WAH WAH*

In this movie, which is not Predator, Arnold, appearing as Arnold, gets his privacy disturbed whilst single-handedly transporting a tree with MUSCLES ALONE. We’re pretty sure that even the Brawny Man couldn’t pull that off.

Normally, Dan Hedaya is the dad in every movie that ever existed. In this movie, he’s redonkulously Latin American. Just go with it.

The important questions are…would you let Arnold help you with your homework? Would he even help you if you weren’t a housekeeper?

At any rate, this movie does have a story at some point, we’re just not sure what it is. At its core, this film is an action movie with some soft-core dad rescue porn. Intrigued? You should be! Join your beloved podcasters and their guest, Alex, for the 1980s nonsensical thrill-ride that is Commando!

Women will NEVER be obsolete! Who do you think is writing these show notes?!? AI attempted to take over for a moment, but Darth Jader is back now.

You’re welcome.

First, what would your gang name be? The Robin Williams? The Gene Wilders? Or would you be a troupe of true badasses and be The Warriors?

Second, which other gang, based on their name alone, would you beat up first? There are so many options in this film that the selections become tiresome.

Hang tight, because all the gangs are mad at the one gang for not committing a crime that definitely happened.

Now that Darth is back, Jason’s gonna die out of pure spite. He said so himself.

Confused? You should be!

Let’s tune into a radio that no longer exists and bop it through this episode together!
