The MMC Podcast looks at "The Girl, The Gold Watch, and Dynamite"

Early this season, we discussed The Girl, the Gold Watch, & Everything, a 1980 movie that premiered in first-run syndication in 1980. We weren't enamored with it. In fact, though there is a sequel, not only do I know we will not cover it, I'm actually worried I'll never be able to talk Mike into covering any made-for-TV movie on the podcast again.

Don't worry, though, Watchaholics! Friend of the Show Steve Cloutier and his friends at The MMC discuss The Girl, The Gold Watch, and Dynamite in their latest episode. I think they're still Steve's friends even after he suggested that one. Actually, at the beginning and end of the pod, he thanks Mike and I for requesting it. Gracious nod to our podcast or subtle way of shifting blame? I think the former, especially since these folks at the MMC watch this kind of stuff all the time. After all, one of those "M"s stands for "Masochist."

At any rate, I can assure you that Steve is as fun when discussing dreck as he is something like, oh, say, The Rockford Files. The whole crew at least enjoys taking apart the second movie based on the original John D. MacDonald movie. I think.

The movie itself, like the original, is on YouTube. Here's a taste of each one before you head over and listen to the MMC:
