Danger did an impressive job giving tons of cool facts and behind the scenes stories about how the Pulp Fiction soundtrack came to be. Monster is here to hopefully shed a little light on how the film came to be as well. Breakdowns For Breakfast isn’t a movie podcast, so there was no reason to breakdown the film. Well, Second Breakfast isn’t a movie podcast either (we’re still not exactly sure what kind of podcast it is yet lol) but it’s a better place to talk about the movie side of things. Enjoy! | |||

SIDE NOTE: The soundtrack has a PARENTAL ADVISORY sticker on it. It is all due to Tarnatino's dialog. That is how much Quinton lives the bad words. | |||
