Ep. 64 - The Last Detail (1973)

Waxing the Porpoise

This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve drop anchor to review the classic film The Last Detail from 1973 about a couple of Navy chasers on a prisoner escort featuring a very young Randy Quaid and pre-Chinatown era Jack Nicholson. Acting as our compass rose we welcome special guest Matt from the Swords in Stereo podcast - space vampire evangelist, modern day renaissance man and a former sailor himself - to guide us through the siren song of the sea.

Join us as Matt and the porpoises join forces to journey through uncharted waters and discuss Matt's time in the Navy and how it compares to it's depiction on film, the pursuit of mischief in the name of making memories that would force Poseidon himself to blush, and answer the age old question, just what is a shellback?

Would you eat a cherry out of a fat man's bellybutton? Call for a good maritime.

Let's wax this salty porpoise.
