Recorded Live at the Bell House in Brooklyn, NY, 6 December, 2025

“These domes are too cheap to colonize Mars!” - Steve on the set design

On this Summer Live episode, it’s our 15th Anniversary Show from the Bell House where we were in rare form chatting about the Arnold sci-fi classic, Total Recall!

How hilarious is Arnold as this vague construction guy? Was this movie the Ground Zero for that Arnold Soundboard craze? Why does the Recall office only have the single chair if they’re the latest craze in techno-tainment? Why did they let Arnold get the procedure while wearing jeans and a corduroy jacket? And should we be calling these guys mutants? PLUS: The finale of the season sixteen VHS Trailer Game!

Total Recall stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sharon Stone, Michael Ironside, Rachel Ticotin, Marshall Bell, Mel Johnson Jr., Michael Champion, Roy Brocksmith, Dean Norris, Debbie Lee Carrington, Robert Costanzo, and Ronny Cox as Cohaagen; directed by Paul Verhoeven.

I know parasocial relationships are fucking weird so sorry for what I am about to write: I'm in the hospital downloading the episode right now after having my 3rd surgery in 9 months to treat my brain cancer. The ($1k or so a year subscription I pay) does not begin to repay the comfort and joy you guys have brought me this past year in general but in particular when I'm recovering from surgery, except for the fact a nurse always walks in right when Eric makes a fucking or cum joke. My surgeon told me he got 70% of my tumor today, which is the best possible outcome for me. So the Total Recall episode is just what the doctor ordered, or not, my surgeon is a hard ass

jribs

Hoping for a strong recovery IC weiner. Just make sure your surgeon isn’t Dr. Beck!

Jan

See you at the party - bring arms

Shawn

Please, eventually, idc when as long as I’m alive, please redo Hackers because afiak it’s the only episode that’s missing 2 of our fantastic hosts.

Tony King

Wishing you all the best I.C.!

John Spencer

Eric was close in that final round of the VHS Trailer Game. "Brain Fart" was the Leslie Nielson parody of "Total Recall". I think it should have counted.

James

This movie is great but old DVD commentary for this movie with Paul Verhoeven and Arnold Schwarzenegger is also very entertaining.

Jeremy Corrigan

Congrats to Andrew! I've been rooting for him this season to finally win the VHS Trailer Game.

RJ Cunningham

Thought the Trailer Game was being played during the live show. I was thinking it was the toughest crowd ever, not even a peep made when Andrew was declared winner.

James Bergquist

Giving a name like Cohaagen to a guy with Arnold's accent is diabolical villain behavior

RJ Cunningham

You got this! Wishing you all the best. Hope this isn’t in too poor a taste, but I feel you’ll see the day when you can look down at that Arnold Sound FX Machine and click on the “it’s not a tumor”

RJ Cunningham

The pitch and cadence in which Roy Brocksmith said “Babs Kramer” is one of the clearest memories I have

MarkNM

Take care IC.

The Mad Jay Woman

Ah see if you want the animal mind vacation you need to go to the world of one ‘Overdrawn At The Memory Bank’ with Raul Julia. No horses shown but there was a baboon option so… *(finally able to put all my time as a feral teen fed by MST3K to use)

Smaug

Hope your recovery is swift!

Smaug

Congrats to the new Jame Master!

Jonathan Lyons

This is all just to get me to say your name, isn't it? Just like Holden magroin and his step brother ihaveacock Jr (Seriously, though, I've seen your comments before and I'm glad you're still kicking. Wishing a good recovery. Cancer is the fucking worst) .

John Cataldo

I love this VHS trailer game. So fucking good.

Hard To Gwil

Heck ya Andrew! Pumped to hear your pick for a redux episode

Frank Grimes

I'm wishing you the best in your recovery I.C. Weiner (great name btw). Cancer took my dad last year. He had, as he put it "the ass cancer." I took care of him and like you, the boys riffing on movies and doing drunken commentaries helped quite a bit.

Hard To Gwil

Totally just read "the ass cancer" in a Pacino voice then smiled like a crazy person. Thanks for that.

Hard To Gwil

Fuck Cancer in it's great big ass

Busiris

Wishing you all the best during such a tough time. 💕 If anyone asks how you're feeling, just tell 'em "Bend over and I'll show ya!"

Busiris

Might be the most laughter I've had while listening to a round of the VHS trailer game. Steve was killing it this season with the fun bonus games!!

Frank Grimes

The really important question is this, Is the Johnny Cab self destruct code “Sue Me! Dickhead!” ?

Elliott Tipton

I was in the car....screaming "Deep Blue Sea!" And "Salvation!"

Tim O'

So happy for Andrew for his historic VHS Trailer Game victory 🥹👏

We Hate Movies

Thanks for supporting and sharing your story! Keep fighting! We're pulling for you!

Billie Jackson

So many Star Trek actors in this. Picardo, the three breasted lady, and 70 year old Steve Zahn is Gul Dukat.

JK

The prominent return of "hobbit vomit" made me very happy Congrats Andrew!

JK

Sending you good vibes. Any friend of the show is a friend of mine 👊

Sonya Ballantyne

The comment Eric made about Pikachu fighting in WW2 on the side of the Japanese made me cackle aloud.

Daimon

When the Michael Ironside question came up I immediately went to Top Gun and another previous episode Highlander II. Side note, Endgame feels like a stay tuned at this point with the remake finally gaining momentum after first being talked about during the Highlander III episode in 2017

David Wright

Happy 15! I've been with you for 10, and all I can say is thanks for a good goddamn decade!

Rose Esposito

So we've had the Jamemaster, the Game King...what's Andrew's title of choice?

Ed Harris

Nailed the VHS trailer game thanks to a horribly good memory. That VHS nearly got worn out when I was in high school. Great film and a great episode as well.

Dan sulin

I’ve request Highlander: Endgame several times for user request month. One of there days

Dan sulin

Me too. First episodes was Pet Semetary 2 after the AVClub recommended it. Been a great run

Kemper

All hail our new Jamemaster!

DMAC

The Martian Pyramid guy is also Gunther of Gunthers Guns from Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Chris Vincenti

Laughter is the best medicine (along with actual medicine)! Be well.

Chippsy McStagger

Was Ric Flair's daughter in the crowd that night? Woo!

nadia

Oh, I was screaming in my car alright!

Kuato (and the freedom brigade)

Back in the day steve and Andrew did a blank check episode on total recall, they were so goddamned funny I had to start following this podcast... it's come full circle for me now, boys 😂

Matt Watterson

I was shouting “The Sixth Day!” at my speaker over and over for an Arnold movie.

Kureigu

Can't believe Eric missed Highlander 2 as an Ironside movie they had previously done on the show.
