or: The Important Thing With Tank Tops is Layering


Chris & Jacob climb aboard the Pork-Chop Express as Kurt Russell re-teams with John Carpenter – this time as a mindless motor-mouthed truck driver in Big Trouble in Little China! While out on the long haul, The Dudes pick up a drifter named Maxx Crawford and offer him a ride in exchange for his six demon bag full Big Trouble knowledge. This comedy-thriller-kung fu movie is a certified cult classic, but how does it stack up against the rest of the Carpenter cannon?

PLUS! Chris pairs with Big Trouble with a beer guaranteed to make you feel kinda invincible, Maxx confesses to watching the same movie every day for the past months and tells us all about his college roommate, Dirt, and The Dudes face the toughest Class of the Carpenter challenge to date with an all-out Kurt Russell Tussle.
