Steven McCash takes us through movies that are turning 21 years old by reviewing them and reflecting upon their impact on pop culture. Pour up a drink related to the movie we’re discussing and enjoy Drinking With…

We’ve done a lot of really cool stuff and some really fun stuff throughout the 10 years we’ve been working on SoBros Network. But, for all I’ve done, the chemistry we’ve built on ‘Drinking With…’ and the depths to which we explore film history may be the most fun I have doing podcasts. That’s right – there’s just something about this show that tends to bring out the electricity in the three of us like none other. But, this show also gives me the opportunity to go back in time and watch some of the most important and iconic films of the last few decades that I might have missed along the way.

That’s how I feel about this month’s episode on Adaptation. I had always heard tale of the dual performance that Cage put in and how fantastic it was. But, if you haven’t seen this film, I can’t do it justice with words. You just have to see it. Give him all of the Oscars. I found this movie to be poetic, flirting with stinging satirical social commentary, a winding plot, a powerhouse cast, dry deadpan humor, and a movie that says something while telling a good story. An instant classic in my household, even if my wife did let out a sigh of relief once the film was over. Now, you can listen to the Drinking With crew dive into this one, our differing opinions, and our love of Nicolas Cage wherever you take in your podcasts! Our themed cocktail for this flick is one called the ‘Flower Show.’ Pour one up and join Brandon, McCash, and me for this in-depth dive into what I’d consider one of the greatest acting performances of my time.

For the Flower Show, you’ll need:

-1 egg white
-2oz gin
-1/2oz crème de violette
-1/2oz Cointreau
-1oz fresh lemon juice

To make it:

-Fill a shaker with ice
-Add ingredients
-Shake until frothy
-Strain into a cocktail glass
