'Tis the season, so Adam and Chad answer the age-old question "is Die Hard a Christmas movie?” Instead of concluding the season with stuffing-filled turkey like in years past, this time the dudes wrap it up with milk n cookies… because Chad’s basement studio flooded. Happy Holidays right? This unfortunate incident leads to an unexpected win: a discussion about everyman John McClain (Bruce Willis) hiding in a building with bloody bare feet and a machine gun f^*king up bad guys in epic fa...

Devasting news about Matthew Perry, best known as Chandler from the ultimate 90’s sitcom, Friends. After thoroughly analyzing the good and bad of the show, including Jennifer Aniston and her hairdo “The Rachel,” Courtney Cox as ho-hum Monica, Lisa Kudrow as space cadet Phoebe, Matt LeBlanc as dumb-but-hot Joey, and David Schwimmer as frustratingly hopeless Ross, Adam and Chad pay tribute to the fallen God of Comedy, Matthew Perry. < ’00 | an Art House Empire Production | #LessThan200...

Adam and Chad try to definitely decide which of the most popular "hood movies" of the early 90's is the best. These films were hugely important to young Adam and Chad, and they want to know if they were right for loving them back in the day, and if their opinion has changed over the years. On the surface, both films are very similar. But "under the hood," there are a lot of major differences. What movie is better in your opinion? Who plays the better gangsta: Ice Cube as Doughboy or Lar...

Wayne's World was only the second SNL movie and the first one since Blues Brothers. Mike Myers and Lorne Michaels had a lot riding on this one. Fortunately, Wayne's World was an unparalleled success and launched an era of movies based on SNL sketches. But was Wayne's World actually any good? Adam and Chad absolutely loved it growing up and quoted it constantly. It shaped them as young preteens. But they haven't watched it since they were kids... what do ja...

We bring you Michael Mann’s 1995 masterpiece, Heat. Al Pacino and Robert De Niro face off for the first time on the silver screen, supported by a sick supporting cast featuring Tom Sizemore, Jon Voight, Amy Brenneman, Ashley Judd, and Val Kilmer. Oh, and the most perfect gun fight ever put on film. But you really want to hear the story about Adam meeting Ton Loc in 2016 and cringingly asking him about working with Al Pacino in Heat. < ’00 | an Art House Empire Production | #LessTh...

Well, it took us four seasons and 118 episodes before we put one out without a super focused topic. This week we ask the question, “what’s something you loved as a kid that you’re embarrassed by as an adult?” What shows, toys, fashion trends, and music makes your present adult-self cringe that your past child-self loved? Help us answer that question by chiming in on Facebook or Instagram, and help us determine what the actual show topic and title is! < ’00 | an Art House...

Adam and Chad geek out on Quentin Tarantino’s finest achievement, the 1994 masterpiece Pulp Fiction, and ask the question “how did a movie this good become so widely popular with audiences and critics?” The movie that made Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman superstars, recontextualized Bruce Willis, and completely revived John Travolta’s career. Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Ving Rhames, Eric Stoltz, and Christopher Walken all provide some of their most memorable performances. < ’00 | an...

In this episode we go deep inside Chad and probe his deepest, darkest teenage feelings to discover exactly what spoke to him the most about the ultimate 90s Grunge band, Nirvana. Smells Like Teen Spirit changed music and culture forever, and Unplugged made us actually feel something. < ’00 | an Art House Empire Production | #LessThan2000 Support the show

One of the most important films of the century: The Matrix (1999). Did it revolutionize or ruin cinema for the next ten years? Starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Hugo Weaving, and written and directed by the Wachowskis, it’s either a timeless classic or a dated cliché. What pill are you taking? < ’00 | an Art House Empire Production | #LessThan2000 Support the show

Adam and Chad's high school director and physics teacher joins the show in our best episode yet. Mark Schnitzler, aka "Schnitz," somehow managed to convince a midwestern Catholic high school to allow him to direct the sex farce "Noises Off" in 1999. The 1982 play by Michael Frayne was the basis for the 1992 movie staring an incredible ensemble cast of Michael Caine, Carol Burnett, Christopher Reeve and John Ritter. Hear stories of how wild Adam and Chad were as teenagers straight from ...

Just in time for the 30th anniversary, Less Than 2000 geeks out about the biggest movie of our lifetime, the original Jurassic Park. One of two of Steven Spielberg’s best films released in 1993, starring Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, Samuel L. Jackson, Wayne Knight and the greatest non-human character ever to grace the silver screen… the mutha****in’ T Rex! < ’00 | an Art House Empire Production | #LessThan2000 Support the show

Rap and Hoop go together like P&B with the J. 1994’s Above the Rim brought Hip Hop and B Ball together in a slammin’ collab starting Tupac and Leon. It spoke to the very soul of a young Adam and Chad and had a bomb soundtrack featuring Regulate by Nate Dogg and Warren G. Listen to us riff about the movie, the soundtrack, and hear more stories about playing junior high basketball, like Adam run-crying out of the team pizza party and Chad getting special favoritism from his hea...

The Fly is a light hearted romantic comedy that uplifts the spirit and sooths the soul. Jeff Goldblum plays a quirky scientist that falls “madly” in love with a “smoking”reporter played by the delightful Geena Davis. Hank Scorpio makes and appearance in this hilarious brain child of comic genius Mel Brooks. Filmmaker (and not at all evil person) John Liang joins the show to break down what exactly makes The Fly (1986) a laugh-out-loud comedy for the entire family. NOT! < ’00 | an Art Ho...

Adam & Chad attempt to handle the topic of 80’s and 90’s supermodels with grace and class… or at least try to be as non-cringey as possible!

George Michael’s Freedom 90 will be discussed. Elle MacPherson, Kathy Ireland, Vendela, Christie Brinkley, Iman, Stephanie Seymour, Tyra B...

Adam & Chad celebrate 4/20 with the defining stoner movie of our generation, Dave Chappelle’s Half Baked. < ’00 | an Art House Empire Production | #LessThan2000 Support the show

Weird Al Yankovic. There is no other. Not even close. After starting out in the 70’s doing song parodies on his accordion, he went from a novelty act on the Dr. Demento Radio Show to a worldwide cultural phenomenon by lambasting 80’s megastars Michael Jackson and Madonna. After his 1989 feature film UHF bombed, the Weird One made his first comeback with 1992’s smells like Nirvana, and then make his second comeback with 1996’s Amish Paradise. And crazy enough, his...

We all did dumb stuff when we were kids. Adam and Chad are just crazy enough to share their stories with the world. Nothing too weird.

There’s no other band quite like Tool. Juxtaposing dark sounds and images against positive messages about expanding our hearts, minds and souls and evolving as a species.
