Rest In Peace Robert Redford
September 16, 2025
Robert Redford's legacy is vast. To honor his passing, we're re-airing one of our favorite episodes: The Great Waldo Pepper. Fun fact: Roger, Gala, and Quentin viewed this movie on film at The New Beverly Cinema. It's co-hit, The Sting, was also supposed to be featured in this episode, but we ended up letting The Great Waldo Pepper stand alone.
Here's to the dreamers.
This episode was originally Season 1, Episode 19 and aired March 28th, 2023.
On the Season 2 finale of The Video Archives Podcast, Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary take you to see a show in The King and I. In the King and I, a widowed governess travels to Siam to tutor the wives and children of the stubborn King. She expects a challenge, but what she doesn't expect is to fall in love. Quentin and Roger talk about the chemistry between Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr, the colorful stagecraft of the film, and the moments they just can't get enough of … etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

April 29, 2025
On this episode of The Video Archives Podcast … the bases are loaded, and Quentin Tarantino & Roger Avary are hoping for a grand slam home run in The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training. In this sequel to the smash hit, The Bad News Bears are back and on their way to Houston to play an exhibition game. The only problem? They have no coach! Quentin and Roger discuss how Jackie Earle Hailey earns his spot as top billed, how the film deals with issues like a true 70's movie, and the lessons that this film can teach you as both a child and an adult.
Then, over on Patreon: We follow that conversation up with The Fighting Eagle, starring Rod La Rocque and produced by Cecil B. DeMille. Quentin and Roger walk us through this napoleonic wars adventure flick and highlight their favorite parts. Then Quentin and Roger take a Ride in a Pink Car — where a man thought to be dead returns home to find that everything has changed.
On this episode of the Video Archives Podcast, Quentin Tarantino & Roger Avary are on The Hunt for Red October. The soviets have developed a technologically-superior nuclear submarine that could begin World War III — and its heading straight for us. While the rest of the government is preparing for the attack, CIA analyst Jack Ryan has a different idea: he believes Captain Ramius is planning to defect. Now, he has to prove it. Quentin and Roger discuss their first experiences watching the film, how John McTiernan perfectly cast these roles, and analyze both the strengths and weaknesses of the film.
