Episode 111 - Chuck Norris Double Feature (Sidekicks & Top Dog)

Did you know Chuck Norris destroyed the periodic table because Chuck Norris only recognizes the element of surprise? Or how about this. Did you know Chuck Norris can drown a fish? That’s right! Chuck Norris makes his debut on Not a Bomb, the podcast that reexamines some of cinema’s biggest bombs. This week, we discuss two of the most unique Norris films - 1992/1993’s Sidekicks and 1995’s Top Dog. Not A Bomb welcomes back fan favorite - Jose! Chuck Norris, like many 80’s icons, had a difficult transition into the 90’s which makes discussing these two films so fascinating. Listen as the guys discuss Mattress Mac, Gi Sniffers, pornography, and dog pronouns. And never forget, Walker told me I have AIDS.
