Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Join us as we dive into Brian De Palma’s stylish spy thriller that kicked off one of the most durable action franchises in movie history. Mission: Impossible gave us exploding gum, CIA break-ins, and a young Tom Cruise sprinting toward superstardom (and helicopters). We’re talking masks, mole hunts, that iconic vault scene—and yes, that wild third-act twist.
And while Tom Cruise was dangling from wires, we’ve been doing our own stunts too—Cuz & Gus style. Think less “CIA infiltration” and more “falling through ceiling tiles trying to install a projector” or “getting chased out of a Publix parking lot during a rogue grocery cart drag race.” We’ve never broken into Langley (yet), but we have broken a folding chair and possibly a tailbone in the name of immersive podcasting.
