Dantes Peak: Just Kick It: The Ultimate 90s Fix

Published: July 24, 2023, 7 a.m.

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are trying to get anybody to just believe for once about that damn dangerous volcano! We watched the 1997 film from Roger Donaldson, Dante\u2019s Peak.

I don\u2019t know about you, but if I\u2019ve got a confident and renowned volcanologist hanging out in my quaint mountain town at the base of a giant volcano desperately warning everybody of an impending eruption, I\u2019m going to listen to the guy.

It\u2019s understandable why most of the town didn\u2019t want to listen to the guy\u2014it\u2019s their home, after all. It would take a lot for most people to pack up their entire lives and leave.

However, I\u2019m no volcano expert. I shouldn\u2019t be the one judging whether or not a volcano is safe to be around. If I hear even the first whisper that something bad could be brewing, I\u2019m going to seriously consider getting out as soon as possible.

But then, if everyone did that, this wouldn\u2019t be much of a film, would it? It was a tragedy, to be sure, but we can all rest easy knowing that the cute dog made it out alive.
