Lots and lots of movies have soundtracks. Some are classics. Some are bad. But the majority fall somewhere in between. This podcast is going to take a look at all of them (or, as many as I can). Every week I'll be covering a different movie that had an original motion picture soundtrack, and then digging into the album. One part film discussion, one part music discussion, the Soundtracker podcast is here to help you navigate the wide world of movies and music. In each episode, myself and a guest discuss the movie and its soundtrack, rate each one, give you our picks for the best songs on the soundtrack, and suggest additional recommendations for what to watch or listen to in relation to whatever we're covering. So join me, as I look back at an era that's largely a thing of the past, and maybe you'll find a new favorite film or song along the way. New episodes every Friday.

Episode 82: Supercop (with Alex Navarro of the Nextlander Podcast and Nextlander Watchcast)
Today, on a very soundtrack-heavy discussion, I'm joined by the former editor of Gamespot and Giant Bomb--and current podcaster with the Nextlander Podcast and the Nextlander Watchcast--Alex Navarro (@alex_navarro), and we're talking about the American release of SUPERCOP. Dimension Films bought the rights to it, and the Weinsteins gave it a new edit with a completely incongruous soundtrack...

Episode 80: The Big Lebowski (with writer Luke O'Neil, author of A Creature Wanting Form)
Today on Soundtracker, there's this fella I wanna tell ya' about. Fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least that was the handle his loving parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. And joining me to talk about him is the author of the recently released short story collection, A Creature Wanting Form, Luke O'Neil (@lukeoneil47). Luke is a good man. And thorough...

Episode 77: BASEketball (with Bree Rody of the Peak Show podcast)
Today on Soundtracker, I swear if you rag on me 13 or 14 more times, I'm outta here! However, if you don't, you can listen to me talk about BASEKETBALL, where I'm joined by Bree Rody (@prune__tracy), of the Peak Show podcast(@peakshowpod), a show I've been a guest on twice now...

Today on Soundtracker, I'm joined once again by Matt Christman (@cushbomb) of Chapo Trap House to talk about Quentin Tarantino, and this time we're talking PULP FICTION. In this episode, we talk about what a doofus Vincent Vega is, why it doesn't matter what's in the briefcase, how tense the Mia overdose scene is, Butch and Marcellus' very bad day, Chuck Berry's only #1 hit being My Dingaling, surf rock, and Tarantino's way with a needle drop...
TEASER! Patreon Bonus Episode 19: Titan A.E. (with Francis Horton of What a Hell of a Way to Die)

Today is TITAN A.E., and I'm joined once again by Francis Horton (@armystrang) of the What a Hell of a Way to Die podcast...
Episode 75: Last Action Hero (with musician Patrick Cosmos, panelist on the Hostile Witness podcast)
Today on Soundtracker, I heard you wanted to be a farmer. Here's a couple of acres. It's LAST ACTION HERO, and I'm joined by musician Patrick Cosmos (@veryimportant) to talk about it. In this episode, we talk about what it could have looked like without Shane Black's touch, the incredibly messy production, Charles Dance, how this contains some of Arnold's best one-liners, AC/DC, Alice in Chains, and the death of the 80s. Not listening would be a big mistake...
