Much like the slice of conceptual pie that our listeners treat themselves to at the end of every NIGHTHAWKS episode, this slice of the NIGHTHAWKS PODCAST is indulgent. The boys sit down and reach into the slimy and slippery muck that is their interior feelings, you’ll find this movie nestled snug against the heartstrings: GONE […]
Listen, gang. The Nighthawks get it. They’re not out to snag a few clicks and a few downloads by offering a contrarian opinion to the Zeitgeist. However, they also feel the need to be completely honest with you, and the truth is that sometimes these opinions run contrary to the overwhelming opinion of the populace. […]
It is the 60th Episode of Nighthawks Podcast, and it is time for the 90th annual Academy Awards. In just a few short days, Hollywood (the broad concept) will gather at the Kodak Dolby Theatre in Hollywood (the actual physical place) to celebrate each other and to celebrate the art of film. Meanwhile, outside, Angelinos […]

The Netflix tentpole big-budget-juggernaut, BRIGHT, was released on Netflix recently. Is Netflix’s future so BRIGHT they have to wear shades? Or is the new David Ayer film low on luster? The shadow of sexual misconduct hangs over the film’s writer, Hollywood legacy Max Landis. Is it possible to separate art from artist? The boys in […]
Merry Life Day to everyone in this galaxy, and in a galaxy far away, and to ring in the holiday season, the Nighthawks have a special two-parter for you. Episode 54: Rogue One- A Star Wars Story Trevor and Matt play a game of catch-up for this episode. Having covered Star Wars from Episodes 1-7, […]
Here we are, we’re going to wade into the fray. But suffice it to say, if we were on the Disney payroll, we’d be driving better cars. Tonight the Nighthawks talk about a movie in current release, the latest WB/DC Tent Pole event film: Justice League. Not unlike THE AVENGERS that came before (in many […]
