Talking the Walk 2023: Pitching the Walk with J.D. Amato

This is an important episode. We have gotten to a place where we need to talk. We need to talk about Talking the Walk.

Now in its sixth year, J.D "I Love Movies" Amato is back to reflect on the past talks of walks and to make a case for the future of this enigmatic franchise.

The sharks, Griffin, David, and Ben, hear him out and decide if any of the pitches are worth investing in. Could this be the end?

Topics include: contacting a beekeeper, a shirt for 2, the thunderdome, when and how to engage the protocol and more.

Talking DeWalt, a power tools podcast

Judson Greene

The whole episode could have just been the Vs. thing because I had fun with that. I would like to add The Nuns from The Sound of Music vs. the Nuns from Sister Act.

Brandon Skidmore

Fully prepared to discuss Pirates of Dark Water at your earliest convenience, you ji-tuttin' monkeybirds

Matt Skoufalos

Ben had a rough restaurant year, didn't he?

Adam Foote

Amazing episode! Love when JD is on. Please do theses forever!

Justin Markey-Thomas

David does love gambling, but hates planes. That's some good content.

Alex Solliday

I can’t stop thinking about “toothpaste for morons”

Rad Rodge

I got wonton soup for the first time after hearing about Ben's catastrophe. Thankfully, it was actually soup. And delicious.

Ray

The Decision (2010) for blankies. Thanks for this!!

Sarah Farrell

I love the idea they come to. Hopefully they have an actual reason to use it in 2024.

Stephen Blakley

What do we as a community have to do to get a non lethal culkin-the walk going? I’m good for $100.

Chris Mangan

Please do the underwater movie thing

ian

How about “Wok’n the Walk with Joaquin and Walken.” The boys invite these actors to watch the film and create their own stir fry dishes inspired by the film.

Daniel Buckley

During the Ang Lee miniseries years ago, they discussed Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk with JD. During the episode they joke that it'll be an annual tradition to "talk the walk." Through a series of coincidences and sheer force of will, they've kept it running ever since Definitely check out that first ep if you've never heard it!

2018: Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk (Main feed, Ang Lee miniseries) 2019: Walking the Talk: A Funeral for Frames (Patreon, banger ep) 2020: The Walk (Main feed, Robert Zemeckis miniseries) 2021: Ranking the Walks (Patreon, BANGER ep, yearly relisten) 2022: Talking the Moon Walk (Patreon, catastrophe) 2023: Pitching the Walk (Patreon, pinnacle of the podcast format)

Listened to this while getting my car inspection and oil change and laughed throughout. In my opinion, Talking the Jacques is 100% Jamirequired.

Godspeed David Sims for moving with kids. Not to encourage the bit from this episode, but my partner and I just moved with our kids (7 and 9) and we thought they’d be old enough to be more helpful this time around..

S-Tier: - Godzilla - Michael Clayton

Michael Hashizume

I had to turn this off at work because I was laughing too hard around my coworkers

Michael Brown

I needed this so much this week. It's great that a two person shirt can make me laugh so incredibly hard when the world is so incredibly bleak

Jordan Gibson

I'm new to this 'walk' thing. What um, what the hell is this?

Culkin the Walk!

Lizzy Tiritilli

Do a versus episode. That was gold

Trevor Talley

I mean, there is a case to be made that this does describe my true thoughts

Rad Rodge

It endures apart from our poor power to add or detract

Rad Rodge

I am so glad they got to Talkin’ the Falk.

fartinscorcese

When you said Culkin the Walk I thought you said Tolkien...aa in Lord of the Rings, which is all about walking. Also Talking the Rock. Either on the actor the Rock or the Nic Cage movie The Rock...or if The Rock starred in The Rock. Walken the Walk...discussing Christopher Walken. I saw Top Gun Maverick in ScreenX but it was a fake ScreenX like the LIEMax screens cause it didn't have rhe extra screens, it was just projected on the outer walls which looked like shit.

Darryl Bowen

Talking that Walk while you walk through that one floor at MOMI with all the cameras and shit

Austin McDougle

I was not aware until today that the Sphere in Vegas was a theater. Maybe that is key turn worthy?

BestowalDonkey8

Talking the Moonwalk was definitely your Quantumania.

Isaiah Bornman

Come on guys, Talkin’ the Walken!!!!

Pete

Please god do the Panavision one.

Trevor Christensen

I haven’t even finished the episode yet and my vote is already firmly in the camp of J.D. should just have to pitch to the sharks every year.

Zach Mccowin

Inside the Pie: The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

Nick D’Alessandro

Hi! Just hopping in the comments to say that I saw Top Gun: Maverick in the screen x format when it got re-released in December last year. Basically anytime there was a flying sequence the side screens would be activated and then for anything that didn't fall into that category it would just be the screen in front. For the flying scenes the sides would either be additional views over the wings, or at times the image would simply be spread out across all three screens. Hope that helps paint an idea on what the format is like!

Leah McKibbin

Please keep debating the walk LOL some of the comfiest episodes just hearing y'all make eachother laugh

Jamesdillenbeck

JDA and Griff gotta go be animation nerds with Mallory Rubin and Joanna Robinson for a best upcoming 2024 pod on House of R.

Tyler Duggan

Clod is great.

Andy Germuga

Thank it

calrodsomething

Unmitigated banger, the boys are back!

Scott Caslow

Pretty sure what most people mean when they say they want a yearly Walk is they want an extra JD episode every year.

Olivia Haidar

this is my first walk and i never want it to leave.

fischurr

Talking the ramp, where we talk about the ramps that Trump walks down carefully?

Storm chaser Jay

I NEED Culkin the Walk so, so much.

Jacob Bowman

JD in his Michael Clayton bag is so hot

magicaljohnson

Blank it

Dani Hatch

We have lost a lot of bits along the way. How many can we lose before we lose our way? The Walk must continue

MDub

Fucking A. So glad it's here! Can you do something in the next few years where you talk about Talking the walk out of the theater? Possible concept

Storm chaser Jay

i think talking the walk should continue forever, regardless of whether we want it. like a pledge drive or telethon

Jordan B. Anderson

Ah, the Community finale.

Leah Thomas

I'll have to listen on .5 speed

Jacob Pickett

Only an hour 42? Interesting…

fartinscorcese

Francisco Hernandez
