Sylvester Stallone and His Friends' Films Podcast

In a thrilling crossover installment of the Sylvester Stallone Podcast Network, veteran hosts Craig Cohen of Slycast, Doug Greenberg of Rocky Minute, and Ryan Rebalkin of Going The Distance converge to unpack the explosive 2010 action opus The Expendables, Stallone's directorial homage to '80s muscle-bound cinema. The trio dissects the high-stakes tale of a ragtag team of mercenaries—led by Stallone's battle-hardened Barney Ross—tackling a tyrannical dictator on a remote island, praising the film's relentless gunfire, machete-wielding mayhem, and star power from Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, and cameos by icons like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis, while sharing laughs over production lore, character arcs, and why this testosterone-fueled ensemble piece endures as a guilty pleasure for genre aficionados despite its formulaic flair.
