Ep 193 - Romancing the Stone + Top Kathleen Turner

This week on Ty & That Guy, Wes Chatham and Ty Franck swing into the jungles of Colombia for a deep dive into the 1984 adventure-romance classic Romancing the Stone, starring Michael Douglas, Danny DeVito, and the inimitable Kathleen Turner. The guys unpack what makes this film such a standout in the action-comedy genre, from its snappy dialogue and unlikely romance to its pitch-perfect blend of danger and charm. They also get into director Robert Zemeckis' role in shaping the movie’s tone and how it helped redefine the modern adventure film. Inspired by Kathleen Turner’s iconic performance as romance novelist-turned-action hero Joan Wilder, the hosts cap off the episode with a spirited countdown of their Top 5 Kathleen Turner Movies, diving into her magnetic screen presence, razor-sharp wit, and the fearless roles that made her one of the most compelling stars of the '80s and '90s. Whether you're in it for the treasure maps, the chemistry, or just a nostalgic ride through peak Turner greatness, this episode has something for every movie lover.
