2021-08-071h 04Toxic PodcastSpiralAlejandro plays a game. The game of disappointment. An ineffectual Saw reboot yields a positively strange Chris Rock performance. Hold on to your fingers! Or maybe don't.

2020-02-251h 04Toxic PodcastChuck Lorre (The Epiphany)Alejandro has decided everything he has ever said is dumb and he rings in the new era of toxic podcast with a deep and confusing dive into the work of Chuck Lorre. This begins a lengthy dissection of Two And A Half Men, a show that helped liquefy all your parents brains in the 2010's. Sorry for being such a verbose fake ally!!
2020-01-261h 19Toxic Podcast"Personally, I Like The Riddler More."Alejandro recorded a Joker episode last week because he's incredibly prescient. We discuss the concept of "becoming the joker," philosophize about evil, and ultimately complain for an hour. It's a good one!
2020-01-161h 03Toxic PodcastHappy New HitchIt's the first full episode of the new year and Alejandro struggles through Hitch, a movie that is definitely not about a pick up artist. A wonderful cast and smart dialogue help distract from an overwhelming cocktail of romcom tropes and themes in this, the Star Wars of Romantic Comedies. Don't get tricked into falling in love with this episode!!!
2020-01-091h 27Toxic PodcastYu-Gi Years Resolutions 2For the 2nd year in a row Alejandro rings in the New Year with a bit everyone hates. Sitting beside a deck of old Yu-Gi Oh Cards, Alejandro draws cards randomly, describes the monsters, and lists what he thinks their New Year's resolutions will be. Regular episodes return next week.
2020-01-0233 minToxic PodcastMerry WitchmasAlejandro has stitched two episodes about Netflix's medieval monster killing drama The Witcher together into one, delivering double the Superman, double the hacky monster jokes, double the apologies, double the Laws Of Surprise, and three times the Donovan. It's art!!!
2019-12-2658 minToxic PodcastSpiritual Dog ConundrumA Behind The Scenes Mini Episode in which Alejandro lies in his bed fruitlessly trying to find meaning in the spiritual goop of the Dog's Purpose/Dog's Journey movies. The Studio 60 theme gets played. I'll never forgive Josh Gad.
2019-12-2020 minToxic PodcastPerfunctory Justice League EpisodeAlejandro needs a win and it doesn't entirely come together as we discuss Justice League. What's Bruce Wayne's Superpower? He's rich! I don't...not like it. Also what's the deal with Brunch? Some say this is the podcast episode that drove Steppenwolf mad.
2019-11-211h 26Toxic PodcastI Dont Need Friends I Need FansAlejandro conducts an in depth examination of Emma Roberts' tour de force performance as Jill Roberts, the fourth incarnation of Mr Ghost from Scre4m. In a podcast whose oeuvre is filled with *weird energy* episodes this one boasts...especially weird energy. Alejandro confesses his love for Macklemore, FINALLY admits that he has prejudices, and lets slip that getting yelled at makes him horny. Take care of yourselves.
2019-11-041h 16Toxic PodcastNot Halloween Content (The Happytime Murders)Alejandro endures The Happytime Murders and flees various horror villains angry with him for refusing to make holiday content. Hackiness overwhelms him as he tries not to mention his recent Ratio experience. This episode is almost the same length as the movie.
2019-10-2359 minToxic PodcastCriminal WinesSorry this isn't the Joker episode!! This week Alejandro accidentally spends almost 2 hours talking about the foundational toxic text Criminal Minds and barely scratches the surface. He also teaches a three tiered wine class before deleting from memory all of his now obsolete wine knowledge. Big content warning on this episode--I describe what Criminal Minds is like!! (seriously)
2019-10-141h 44Toxic Podcast"Shut Up, Josh."Alejandro watches A Dog's Purpose, a movie about a dog who loves KJ Apa and later Dennis Quaid being reincarnated through time. Alejandro wrestles with the cosmos. The big questions! The mind reels. Mercifully there is no bad improv. Sorry for being mean to the Avengers last week.
2019-10-0253 min
Toxic PodcastThe Trial Of Avengers EndgameDISCLAIMER: Sorry I call this movie stupid a million times, if you like this movie I am not calling you stupid!! Just please be prepared for me to call this movie stupid like over and over and over, and for totally BS reasons. Shoutout to Judge Grumpus and the Ghost of Garfield.
2019-09-251h 14
Toxic PodcastAnnabelle ReloadedThe return in earnest of Toxic Podcast has Alejandro talking about the wonderful and effective doll horror film Annabelle Creation as he takes a scary flight to an underappreciated podcaster convention. When his seatmate turns out to be the monstrous and complicated Andrew Goose Clay, Alejandro's plans to discuss Annabelle Creation are nearly sidelined. Unfortunately all this plot development can't save the episode just as it can't save the orphans in the Mullins home. Welcome back guys, they'll get better.
2019-09-161h 07
Toxic PodcastTwo Blood: The Exposition MashAlejandro returns from the edge of existence to complain about this show where monsters fuck each other and discovers to his horror that he has become less woke. The werewolf disappoints. Aaron Sorkin finally gets his revenge on Gotham. Optimus Prime endorses Joe Biden. This one's fun, I think.
2019-04-261h 16
Toxic PodcastThe Transformers Political DigestToxic Podcast has been resurrected and Alejandro is on a mission to describe the changing political landscape of the Transformers franchise as the earth is torn apart by the Cyber War. Alejandro heroically refuses to summarize the films, instead focusing on more important matters like Megatron's weird cloak. A franchise involving cars that turn into robots is also the only major franchise in which an apocalypse is quite so fully realized. We're back.
2019-04-2056 min
Toxic PodcastA Catastrophe: True BloodAlejandro discovers the euphorically toxic True Blood, turns out to be a Vampire Bigot, and completely goes off the rails. Yami Yugi, Double Scrooge, and a Goose stop by and conflicts ensue. Contains probably the longest period of mouth footing in any episode of Toxic Podcast thus far. Apologies to all.
2019-02-191h 19
Toxic PodcastI Still Know What You Did Last SupperToxic Podcast returns from hiatus to discuss 2004's Religious Torture Epic Passion Of The Christ. Alejandro struggles through a genuinely brutal viewing experience, tackles the film's obsession with extreme violence, and wonders when God is going to show his loser face. A late drop in by Jack Black's character from I Still Know What You Did Last Summer precipitates a skidding out and Alejandro fails to plug his show. It's basically par for the course.
2019-02-0156 min
Toxic PodcastAlejandro Baby: Back In KolleenynessToxic Podcast returns in earnest to explore Boss Baby: Back In Business, a Netflix series which doubles down on the Toxic corporate universe of the Boss Baby film. Is that theme song simply too radical to deny? If these babies truly spend eternity doing this job shouldn't they be better at it? Happy New Year!
2019-01-071h 01
Toxic PodcastYu-Gi Year's ResolutionsAlejandro draws monsters from a deck of worthless Yu-Gi-Oh cards discovered in his home, describes the monsters, and takes a swing at what the monster is resolving this New Year's. It's a placeholder episode. Sue me.
2019-01-0227 min
Toxic PodcastThe Once And Future GrinchFor Christmas Alejandro got you a jam packed episode of Toxic Podcast concerning the Jim Carrey Grinch and debuts his Joe Biden impression. This one's got it all: youtube ads ruining bits, weird noises, problematic hemming and hawing over important topics, occasional moments of joy, and a great deal of self-indulgent projection onto the Grinch. Help, I'm feeling!!!
2018-12-211h 09
Toxic PodcastThe Driving Around Looking At Lights Not Talking About Love Actually FragmentacularAlejandro takes a leisurely drive through Park Slope looking at Christmas lights, describing them, and trying his best not to talk about the supremely Toxic Love Actually. The fragment ends when Alejandro gets lost. Weird one.
2018-12-1426 min
Toxic PodcastThe Santa Clause PropheciesChristmastime is upon us and Alejandro brings to you The Santa Clause, a movie it is impossible to describe without using the phrase "kill santa." Over the course of an hour forty a family is torn apart, a community of Elves are worked to death, and the police deploy a SWAT team. Merry Christmas?
2018-12-0656 min
Toxic PodcastTalk A Lot About ChocolatAlejandro recaps last week and then recaps his recap as he delivers a Holiday palate cleanser in the form of Chocolat, a movie that can best be described as CHOCOLATE FOOTLOOSE. The boundaries of the podcast concept are stretched by our inability to characterize the film as toxic, but in a pinch the recipe can substitute joyous insanity. There's no sound in space!!!
2018-11-241h 03
Toxic PodcastThe Red Flag Special: Palahniuk Edition.Alejandro has read 3 Chuck Palahniuk novels in 4 days and passes the podcasting responsibilities off to Literary Kolleeny, who quickly finds himself muddled in the overwhelming toxicity of the P-man's writing style and oeuvre. Does this episode have literally no jokes?
2018-11-1758 min
Toxic PodcastDeep Blue SullyAlejandro gushes about the lamest movie of all time. Sully: a tonally jarring and confused movie with no clear villain or stakes that is about essentially nothing except how fucking awesome Sully is. We discuss anti-bald propaganda, the cosmic horror of air travel, and First Officer Skills sparks up many a fat spliff. As they say in France- "Birds."
2018-11-021h 03
Toxic PodcastBroken: The Curse Of MediocrityAlejandro unloads on Broken, a superlatively toxic earworm by alleged musical group lovelytheband. Life is about waking up in the morning and making some eggs. Was Shoenice real? We learn people with Trust Funds are the real victims and to close things out Sully Sullenberger dispenses 208 seconds of wisdom.
2018-10-2742 min
Toxic PodcastSeason 2 Episode 1: An Evening With FloToxic Podcast begins its second season with a discussion of the iconic Progressive spokesperson Flo The Progressive Lady. A classy if scattered look at the toxic nature of advertising and the absurdist hellscapes in which ads take place. Alejandro tries not to be too philosophical as he essentially summarizes fifteen progressive commercials and complains about lazy jokewriting. Off to a great start.
2018-10-1950 minToxic PodcastAlejandro V Audience: Dawn Of PodcastingAllegedly this is the third episode in which Batman V Superman is discussed. But IS Batman V Superman discussed? Recorded 75 years to the day after the final episode of Toxic Podcast. Alejandro has a ten minute meltdown trying to describe the Cake Sequence. I guess this episode is weird enough that I have to be on its side??
2018-10-0852 min
Toxic PodcastEisenberg V Luthor: The Impossible PerformanceA lengthy character study of the most incredible performance in all of film: Jessie Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. A cumulative 40 minutes of screentime absolutely dominate the film, but why did some claim Luthor was actually the worst part of BVS? Our host unravels and becomes the very character he is attempting to describe. Lex inexplicably quotes Lolita. It's fucked up.
2018-09-2047 min
Toxic PodcastBatman V Superman: Miserable WorldAn unprecedentedly cheerful Alejandro Kolleeny gleefully begins his study of BVSDOJ, the template for Toxic Media as we know it. A comic book movie obsessed with making its audience and characters miserable, the film deliberately tries to exhaust the viewer and guess what baby--it succeeds! Alejandro opens up this overstuffed closet of toxicity only to have it rain down upon his head like so many tennis rackets and old coats. Breathe it in. That's fear!
2018-09-131h 11
Toxic PodcastThe Ale's Not Talking About Saw Movies Anymore Party And Twentieth Episode SawstravaganzaAlejandro discusses Saw 5 at a party celebrating the fact that he is no longer discussing the Saw franchise anymore. Luke Danes from Gilmore Girls gets his head trapped in a box. Is this the best Saw movie and how do I make people other than myself care?
2018-09-0349 min
Toxic PodcastThe Joey Of Podcast EpisodesAlejandro's initial intention to discuss Friends spinoff Joey is derailed several times as he recovers from an illness. We discuss Deadpool 2, Friends and Frasier, and the episode becomes crowded with characters. Eventually our intrepid host completely runs out of steam and pronounces the episode a failure. This is the Joey of podcast episodes.
2018-08-2842 min
Toxic PodcastSorry For Swearing At Ready Player Not FunAn incensed Alejandro Kolleeny chokes his way through his longest episode by far to address Ready Player One, a movie with a bad concept and no right to exist. Sorry about all the swearing but it is just so infuriating trying to enjoy this paint by numbers useless male hero story drowning in exposition with a concept that turns out to be "the internet." Join us for the movie version of when your grandfather finds out you do comedy and spends thirty minutes trying to describe what Youtube is.
2018-08-171h 07
Toxic PodcastToo Many Zuckerbergs!!Toxic Podcast returns from hiatus to ingest the starkly depressing depiction of toxic masculinity and its role in the development of a massively influential and world altering social networking site. Alejandro attempts to responsibly interpret the film despite the intrusions of Real World Mark Zuckerberg and Jessie Eisenberg's Mark Zuckerberg, both of whom storm the podcast bringing their own agendas.
2018-08-0958 min
Toxic PodcastBorat (Sorry!)As Sacha Baron Cohen's Who Is America continues to be a topic of controversy, Alejandro returns to the equally if not more controversial 2006 film Borat. His foot also returns to his mouth and remains there for the duration of the episode. Who better to apologetically hem and haw for forty five minutes about the impact of offensive humor than some random straight white guy? Has the podcaster learned his lesson about biting off more than he can chew? Also the episode ends w a lovely Italian Dinner and pep talk from Michael Shannon.
2018-07-2645 min
Toxic PodcastThe Mystery Of Who Let The Dogs OutA genuine mystery. Alejandro attempts to get to the bottom of Who Let The Dogs Out, a hyper repetitive megahit from the 2000's with a convoluted history. Every attempt made to shed light on the Mystery Of Who Let The Dogs Out yields more questions, and as the truth begins to take shape the episode culminates in a series of explosive bombshells that nobody, least of all our intrepid host, could have predicted.
2018-07-1731 minToxic PodcastThe Purge Election YearAlejandro braves The Purge with no Purge Insurance this week to discuss Election Year, a movie about an election year that was released in an election year. Too much of this movie hits too close to home, and if it isn't Toxic The Purge is at least disturbing. Why is that one girl so obsessed with candy? Who stole Frank Grillo's youth? Will Alejandro survive?
2018-07-1144 min
Toxic Podcast50 First PodcastsToxic Podcast returns with 50 First Dates, a nightmarish alleged Romcom starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore in what would begin Sandler's cultivation of the Movie That Is Also A Vacation For Him. Alejandro rails against cruel comedy and we discuss the horror of living the same day over and over again, the horror of being a part of this charade, and the horror of being in love with Adam Sandler. Ft. The Jigsaw Killer!
2018-07-0255 min
Toxic PodcastKolleeny Of SteelAlejandro has watched the rest of Man Of Steel this week and we discuss the brutally repetitive question of whether humanity is ready to accept The Superman. Maybe he shouldn't save people? Does Superman's toxic upbringing inform Henry Cavill's performance or lack thereof? The Jigsaw Killer also returns to deliver Alejandro a deadly ultimatum. Let your cells drink up the radiation!!
2018-06-2155 min
Toxic PodcastMini-Episode! Crowe V. Shannon: Death Of KryptonAlejandro begins a two-Part discussion of 2013's unwatchable Super-Epic Man Of Steel with a mini episode focusing on the film's 20 minute opening sequence on Krypton. A symphony of no stakes explosions and an incomprehensible shouting match between Jor-El and Zod culminate in the planet being blown up and Kal-El being launched to earth, as was to be expected of a Superman movie.
2018-06-1422 min
Toxic PodcastSaw IV (10th Episode Spectacular)In the totally unprecedented 10TH EPISODE OF TOXIC PODCAST Alejandro makes a triumphant return to the Saw franchise and enters the retcon in a big way. Saw 4, an underwhelming film, is nevertheless extremely important within the greater narrative of the franchise. It also boasts a man getting his head smashed by two large ice blocks like a watermelon. Alejandro does some decent bits but he reveals himself to be a monster when he declares of the film that "the violence is underwhelming." It's a party! Be careful.
2018-06-0653 min
Toxic PodcastKing LearKing Lear, one of the original Toxic Artifacts, is on the docket for this week's Toxic Podcast. The story of an angry baby king who wants nothing more than to abuse his family and the evil daughters who don't like getting yelled at. Alejandro relives Humiliations From College English Classes and describes in detail his lazy Podcast Process. Sorry for not living up to my Podtential.
2018-05-2948 min
Toxic PodcastBoss BabyAlejandro is feelin' chippy on this episode of TOXIC PODCAST and finds himself picking arbitrary fights with The Beatles, kids with siblings, and Jimmy Kimmel while discussing 2017's Boss Baby. As the episode progresses Alejandro is forced to face the fact that Boss Baby is mostly a delightful film and only Toxic in its literal obsession with CGI Baby Ass. The finale finds us attempting to write a polar religious drama, and there's even a show plug!
2018-05-2156 min
Toxic PodcastDeadpoolJust in time for Deadpool 2 Alejandro watches the 2016 R rated comic book movie that Ryan Reynolds apparently blackmailed someone into making. Show us your face Ryan!! Another Toxic Reckoning occurs--in trying to describe Deadpool's massively problematic contents Alejandro is forced to address his own problematic thinking with mixed results. Also he has a nerd-tantrum. This one is rough.
2018-05-1447 min
Toxic PodcastThe Chainsmokers: Memories...Do Not OpenTOXIC PODCAST returns to process the debut album from The Chainsmokers, widely regarded as one of the worst albums of 2017. Is it possible for music to sound less interesting than silence? Alejandro slogs through the album and in the process develops a lifelong vendetta against Alex and Andrew, the offending Chainsmokers. Woo!
2018-05-0634 min
Toxic PodcastBaa Baa LandIn the shortest episode of Toxic Podcast to date Alejandro vents his spleen at Baa Baa Land, an unforgivably lazy 8hr relaxation film starring a bunch of sheep with numbers painted on them. The episode begins cocky and quickly unravels as it turns out an 8 hour movie with no plot is not the best conversation piece. Are sheep "relaxing" creatures?
2018-04-2929 min
Toxic PodcastFootloose 2011A conflicted Alejandro Kolleeny nearly quits his own podcast as he discusses the 2011 Footloose remake, genuinely one of his favorite movies. A dance musical that gives its viewers tonal whiplash, the movie boasts Renn McCormack's amazing disappearing Boston accent and the single best Miles Teller performance of all time. Cut loose! By sitting quietly and listening to this podcast.
2018-04-2154 min
Toxic PodcastSAW IIIThe third episode of Toxic Podcast is a reckoning of sorts. SAW III proves to be too much for Alejandro, who wonders for the first time if a podcast in which the host constantly exposes himself to toxic media is not the healthiest idea. The drama of Jigsaw and Amanda Young grows ever more tortured as the question looms--who's game is this? Don't drown in pig guts--have a listen!
2018-04-1347 min
Toxic PodcastSAW IIAlejandro endures SAW II in the first listenable episode of TOXIC PODCAST. Both the gore and the convolutions of the plot are significantly heightened in what is definitely either the best or the worst SAW movie. We discuss Jigsaw as a teenage philosopher, cringe our way through the syringe-pit sequence, and wonder how many organs it's possible to cough up and keep walking around the house.
2018-04-0639 minToxic PodcastSAWIn an inaugural episode so plagued with audio difficulties some may describe it as "unlistenable," our hero discusses Saw, a movie credited with popularizing the "torture porn" genre of horror in the latter half of the 2000's. We attempt to make sense of Jigsaw's weird assertion that he helps people and find the essence of Toxic Media itself in the Unnecessary Poop Arm Sequence. Seriously I know that noise is awful, I figure it out in the next episode. We close out with Alejandro designing a Jigsaw trap for himself.
