The Indiana Jones Minute Podcast

The moment we've all been waiting for. We finally get to the hero of the movie: Omar! Unfortunately, the moment is clouded by Toht managing to get even creepier, and the only one more disturbed than Tom is the Ark. But it's okay; Jamie Benning is here to explain the sense of deja vu we're all feeling.

It's the Revenge of Jones as Indy Yakima Canutts his way back into the truck and gives Nazi Dad a taste of his own medicine, and Jamie Benning shares yet more Wolf Kahler love.

Some characters do lose their hats in this movie, but Indy almost loses more than that as we see our hero at his most vulnerable. Jamie Benning returns to marvel at all the beautiful Mercedes product placement!

One go-getter Nazi manages to shoot Indy, but gets nothing but a truck door for his troubles, so it's up to the final truck soldier to save the day. Our guest Jamie Benning tries to remind us whose side we're on.

Bad words abound in multiple languages as Toht goes off a cliff. But not really. Our guest this week Jamie Benning scares us with the idea of Raiders of the Lost Ark: Special Edition.

Indiana Jones is cruel. Our guest Andrew Hawthorn agrees. There’s nothing more to say.

Indy chases the truck on a Wook-- uh, horse, Belloq's worst nightmare comes true, and our hero starts brutally killing people. Look out, Andrew Hawthorn! Look out!

Let's get this Nazi party started right! The Ark caravan revs up to begin maybe the greatest sequence in cinema history. Unless you’re the guy who has to drive sitting next to Toht. Andrew Hawthorn returns with tips for safely handling your Ark shipment.

God blows up a tower, Sallah rolls with his friends not being dead, and a truck arrives in five-four time. Bonus question: Can our guest Andrew Hawthorn read our minds?

That circle theory from last week culminates in the most dangerous circle of all. But you know, we don't SEE Otto Von Bluto get killed so it's possible he just went toe-to-toe with that propeller for the full twelve rounds. Andrew Hawthorn from the No Time for Heroics podcast joins us, wearing a splatter-proof poncho.

Even frakkas-seeking hobby pugilists get the blues, and our guest Brett Stillo proves he was the best Raiders fan even before the movie came out.

Returning guest Brett Stillo is dazzled as Indy does a crazy pirouette for some reason, and as Marion auditions for Saving Private Ryan.

Indy has seen better days, and so has Tom and Gerry's friendship. Can Pete and returning guest Brett Stillo keep it all together? Cliffhanger!

Rufus Rumpushauser emerges for fisticuffs, Pete helps Tom with his German, Gerry unearths a lost line of dialogue, and Dietrich puts his dogs up as Wolf Kahler gets more love from our guest Brett Stillo.

An old friend (not the one you think) visits from earlier in the movie as Marion and Indy exit the made-up-as-it-goes Well of Souls. Oh, and check out that crazy plane! Our guest Brett Stillo assures us that thing was as real as you are. But did it fly??

You gotta hand it to Indy; when he destroys a priceless relic from history he goes all the way. Our guest Dr. Eric Wells is just glad no one was hurt.

Everybody, we've got some terrible news about the Ark. But the good news is Dr. Eric Wells joins us again to weigh Indy’s heart against the Feather of Truth, and to take sides between God and Shishak.

Well, if Indy's going to be stuck in the Well of Souls for the rest of his life, we might as well actually look around and learn about Egypt. Good thing we brought Egyptologist Dr. Eric Wells (of the Soulses) with us!

Spielberg finally gets his Bond on, Marion is resilient as ever, and it turns out it's totally worth it to bring John Brueggen with you to the Well of Souls even if he does ruin your snake-in-shoe fetish. Warning: This episode contains not only snakes, but an ear worm.

Gerry is crushed to learn that movies are often not technically accurate. Pete ruins the entire movie by pointing out the nightmare detail you never noticed. But we should be okay since our guest is John Brueggen the snake expert, who has the perfect gift idea for the Belloq who's taken everything!
