Episode 50 - Top Gun (1986)

Cooper and Nolan are taking a ride into the danger zone this week with Tom Cruise's 80s classic TOP GUN!

It's another controversial choice for this podcast - one that began as a desire to find a BIG movie for the 50th episode, and one that ends with Cooper offering to let the estate of director Tony Scott kick him in the balls.

Along the way the guys argue over topics like whether there's more to the Maverick/Iceman relationship than meets the eye, if Kelly McGillis was the right choice for the role of Charlie, and the possibility that this whole thing is just propaganda to get people to join the Navy.

Just like playing beach volleyball in jeans, things heat up quickly in this one, so prepare for takeoff; this episode (featuring a beer from Barnstormer Brewing & Distilling Co.) will definitely test the rules of engagement!
