113.⚡Days Of Thunder w/ Lee Kaplan

The Nostalgia Test Podcast

Dan & Manny welcome longtime friend, and secret Nostalgia Test Podcast fan, Lee Kaplan to put the 1990 Tom Cruise classic Days of Thunder to the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST!

Grab a drink and settle in for vintage Nostalgia Test Podcast tangents, breakdowns, and mayhem. The guys discuss how Days of Thunder is Top Gun on wheels, how this is in the Top Gun/Cocktail Cruise-niverse, why is there so much Sweet N' Low in a sex scene, how come Tom Cruise makes every sex scene awkward, can you literally crash into other cars when you're racing, Robert Duvall's moonshine addiction, is John C. Reilly's character in an extended universe that connects Days of Thunder with Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, and so much more!
