GoodTrash Media

The Godfather of GoodTrash and the Ethereal Sasquatch hold down the fort and kick things off with one of our more enjoyable games so far in which we gave our fellow Trashers pilot handles. This is a game that we want our dear listeners to chime in on. Hit us up on Twitter (@Good_Trash) or Facebook (/GoodTrashMedia) and let us know what we should be nicknamed. The boys find the exit for Business Time and get down to some conversational analysis. They hot potato back and forth, discussing product placement in film, propaganda in Hollywood and Washington’s involvement in that process, the subversion of the male gaze, the impact of the soundtrack on the cinematic experience, and we have a special guest sit down to talk about the gay subtext of the film. Arthur and Dustin wrap up their discussion of Top Gun by questioning Tom Cruise’s place in blockbuster history.

And there you have it Dear Listener, a well rounded discussion of Top Gun. So strap in, the tower is giving us clearance, time to hit the throttle, and hit play before we take your breathe away.
