Summary

This week on Ty & That Guy, Wes Chatham and Ty Franck take a NOS-fueled joyride straight into the high-octane, neon-lit madness of The Wraith (1986)—a movie so gloriously bonkers, it defies all known physics and narrative logic. Charlie Sheen plays a mysterious ghost-car vigilante(?) with a vengeance to settle and a Dodge M4S Turbo Interceptor to do it in. It's got murder, romance, inexplicable resurrections, and a soundtrack that slaps harder than it has any right to.

They break down the film’s wild plot, killer car chases, and why The Wraith is a cult classic worth revisiting—even if it raises more questions than it answers.

Then, inspired by the sleek vengeance-mobile at the heart of the movie, the guys count down their Top 5 Most Iconic Cars in TV and Film. From time-traveling DeLoreans to muscle-bound demon hunters, they debate what makes a car truly legendary in pop culture.
