LISTEN UP, BROTHER! It’s WRESTLEMANIA season at ERIC ROBERTS IS THE MAN, and we’re joined by wrestling expert Matt Hollinger to talk about TWO films where ER pairs with stars from the squared circle. First up finds Eric Roberts re-teaming (briefly) with his EXPENDABLES co-star “Stone Cold” Steve Austin in the 2010 CLIFFHANGER riff HUNT TO KILL. Then there’s THE CONDEMNED II which finds Roberts as the father of WWE superstar Randy Orton in a barely related sequel to the Steve Austin-starring THE CONDEMNED from 2007.

It's MARCH MADNESS here at Eric Roberts is the Man, so we're joined by former Cineplex pre-show host and all-around man of mystery Ben Gordon to chat about two more Eric Roberts classics! First up is 1996's sweat-stained HEAVEN'S PRISONERS, which was shelved for two years and shows it. It features nude femme fatale Teri Hatcher, Alec Baldwin tears, shotgun murder and ERIC ROBERTS WITH CORNROWS. We follow up with the unwatchable DARK MOON RISING, which proceeded to sap our enthusiasm, coherence and will to live. I fear we'll never recover! All this and the ROBERTS REPORT so stop what you're doing and LISTEN.
