Description: Nathan and Ryan roll into Airborne (1993), the extreme-sports teen movie that swapped skateboards for rollerblades and sent a California surfer kid to the frozen Midwest. Starring Shane McDermott alongside a young Seth Green and Jack Black, the film mixes fish-out-of-water comedy with downhill skating races, high school rivalries, and peak early-’90s “extreme” culture. The hosts break down the movie’s wild rollerblading set pieces, its time-capsule soundtrack and fashion, and why Airborne became a nostalgic cult favorite for anyone who remembers when inline skates ruled the sidewalks.
