    For our fifty-third episode, we’re joined by friend of the show Robert Yaniz Jr. (Crooked Table, “Franchise Detours” podcast) for a discussion of the audio commentary for Fred Dekker’s 1987 Universal Monsters remix (but for kids!) “The Monster Squad”.

    Aug 6 2024
    For our fifty-second episode, we’re joined by friend of the show Nicki from Trivial Theater on YouTube for a discussion of the chaotic inebriated commentary for “South Park” creator Trey Parker’s Troma-tastic directorial debut: 1993’s “Cannibal! The Musical”. The sky is blue and all the leaves are green/The sun’s as warm as a baked potato/We think we know precisely what we mean/When we say it’s a shpadoinkle podcast!

    #051: Child's Play with Jason Soto
    Jul 23 2024
    For our fifty-first episode, podcast emperor Jason Soto (Rabbit Hole Podcasts) joins the show for a discussion of the original Chuck with whom you won’t want to f**k: 1988’s “Child’s Play”, as told through series creator Don Mancini’s commentary. Does this franchise deserve to be seven films deep? Just how integral to its success is Brad Dourif? How did they make the leap to television? There’s a lot to address and we do our best.

    Ryan’s Recommendations: “Psycho II” (1983), “Fright Night” (1985), and “The Lego Movie” (2014)

    #050: Batman (1966) with Case Aiken
    Jul 9 2024
    We did it! We reached fifty episodes! We’re officially a toddler in podcast years! For this episode, friend of the show Case Aiken (“Men of Steel”, “Another Pass”) returns to discuss the commentary for the 1966 “Batman” feature film, as told by stars Adam West and Burt Ward. Is bombing ducks instead of nuns ethical? Did you realize the villains were featured in bizarre tilted frames because they’re *crooked*? What is the connection between Batman ’66 and the serials of the ‘40s? All these questions will be answered and more.

    Ryan’s Recommendations: “The American Friend” (1977), “Paris, Texas” (1984), and “Repo Man” (1984)

    #049: Weird: The Al Yankovic Story with Lauren Robinson
    Jun 25 2024
    For our forty-ninth episode, friend of the show Lauren Robinson (“Beer’d Al” podcast) makes technically her first appearance to discuss the 2022 “Weird Al” “biopic” “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story”. Lotta quotation marks there. How long was Conan O’Brien actually on set? Did Al really acquire his iconic accordion from a door-to-door salesman? Just how good is Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna? Does Emo Phillips as Salvador Dali steal the whole show? The answers to those questions and more await!

    Ryan’s Recommendations: “JFK” (1991), “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” (2002), and “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” (2016)

    #048: Tucker: The Man and His Dream with Mike White
    Jun 11 2024
    For our forty-eighth episode, Mike White (“The Projection Booth” podcast) returns for a movie discussion of Francis Ford Coppola’s unheralded 1988 triumph “Tucker: The Man and His Dream”. Despite what you have been led to believe, it’s not really about cars. We discuss Coppola’s desire to do something interesting with his wealth, how George Lucas bailed his mentor out after a decade of flops, why Martin Landau was robbed of an Academy Award nomination at the least, Coppola’s failure to secure Frank Capra as an executive producer, and so much more.

    Ryan’s Recommendations: “The Godfather” (1972), “Apocalypse Now” (1979), and “The Cotton Club” (1984)

    #047: Batman Forever with Mike Natale
    May 28 2024
    For our forty-seventh episode, friend of the show Mike Natale (“You’re Missing Out” podcast) returns for a movie deeply important to your wonky yet affable host: Joel Schumacher’s inaugural outing with the Dark Knight, 1995’s “Batman Forever”. Were Val Kilmer’s lips born to play Batman? Does the franchise need to be liberated from big-boy mentality? Will this host almost forget to even mention that Jim Carrey is in the film? Listen to find out!

    Ryan’s Recommendations: “Batman” (1966), “Superman: The Animated Series” (1996-2000), and “The Batman” (2022)
