In the latest episode of the Tim Anderson Podcast, Tim, Ryan, and Lauren dive deep into the stormy chaos of the 1996 classic, Twister. From the very beginning, the team is full of fiery opinions and passionate takes that make for an entertaining and insightful discussion.
The trio begins by breaking down the movie’s plot—or, more accurately, plots—debating whether Twister juggles too many storylines for its own good. Ryan and Lauren aren't shy about expressing their frustration with the narrative overload, while Tim is fired up, defending the film's chaotic charm.
A major point of agreement, however, is the unanimous love for Cary Elwes and Phillip Seymour Hoffman. The hosts argue that the film desperately needed more screen time for these two talents, whose performances were standout highlights. On the flip side, the consensus is that Jami Gertz's character could have been dialed back, with Ryan leading the charge on this critique. Ryan also demands that she pay more taxes.
With emotions running high and the opinions sharp, this episode captures the essence of what makes the Tim Anderson Podcast a must-listen for film enthusiasts. The dynamic between the hosts—Ryan’s irritation, Lauren’s exasperation, and Tim's..... fiery enthusiasm—ensures a lively and engaging discussion that you won’t want to miss.

The Podcast
This podcast is a labor of love where I like to sit down and talk with people I know and get their thoughts and ideas on a wide array of topics. It's mostly sports because sports are still fun for me but I'll venture around as the mood strikes me. As I get older, this pod has become a way for me to stay in touch with friends and connect with people at a time where we couldn't be more disconnected.
