It's time for another episode of "Break Up Letters" here on the Bucky's Basement Podcast, and this one is big...for Bucky. He reads his break up letter to Jack White as Juicebox and Oldboy question why he couldn't just, ya know, listen to Jack a little less?

1986 saw the release of the movie "Peggy Sue Got Married", introducing the world to the early eccentricities of Nic Cage and some questionable "accent" choices made by the actor. The guys delve into the Academy Award nominated movie, question the point of the film, and wonder if it's all just a trap. Go on and marinate on that for a minute.

Sometimes it's better to let go of something you love than to stick with it, wishing it were something different, something better. This week, Oldboy breaks up with his long-time love interest, Star Wars. It's not you, Star Wars, it's him. Trust us.

Ever wonder what it was like to grow up in Southern California during the early 80's? If shopping malls, rad lingo, gratuitous nudity, and sushi served at high-school house parties were what you had in mind, you would be suspiciously correct. This early Nic Cage movie has all the teenage angst you could expect from privileged white kids. Join us as we explore the 1980's classic (?). Like, totally, puffed out to the max. For sure. Totally.
