Old Movies For Young StonersS4E7 A.K.A. Cassius Clay (1970) feat. Dave ZirinAuthor and sports columnist Dave Zirin of The Nation joins us to delve into the Muhammad Ali psychedelia of A.K.A. CASSIUS CLAY (1970), possibly the trippiest sports documentary ever conceived. In this amazing conversation, Dave explains how Ali linked the civil rights movement to growing antiwar protests as well as giving us the lowdown on director Jimmy Jacobs and narrator Richard Kiley, a Broadway legend who looks like a handsy college professor here. Cory and Bob talk about the movie's funkified jazz score by Teo Macro, who scored this movie the same year he produced Miles Davis' fusion opus...2025-07-1848 minOld Movies For Young StonersS4E6 Emergency Mini-Episode with The Birds (1963)Netflix has a Hitchcock series going right now so--gasp--there are actually movies on the world's biggest streamer that are from before 1980! I know, it's hard to believe but because of The Master of Suspense there are even movies from the 1950s and 60s--and they're being promoted on Netflix's landing page like they're a big deal and everything. We couldn't and shouldn't pass this opportunity up, so Cory and Bob talk about Hitchcock's apocalyptic chiller THE BIRDS from 1963. Cory even gives this movie his stoney medal of approval as he talks about meeting the classic film's star Tippi Hedren in Bodega...2025-06-301h 00Old Movies For Young StonersS4E5 PhilenApocalypse III: Drag Story Time w/ To Wong Foo...

Have there really been three of these things??? Yes, there have been three and this time it's the DRAG STORY TIME edition where Philena fails to completely torment the olds but she does enlighten them.
First she goes back 30 years for the family-friendly, Spielberg-produced, and strangely-titled drag queen road epic, TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!

Lennie Loftin w/ The Quick and the Dead (1995)Gene Hackman left us in shocking and tragic circumstances on February 18, 2025. With his signature intensity, he may be one of the least stony actors of all time, but he was one of the best. To pay tribute to him we have his trippiest movie this side of CISCO PIKE (1971) with the quick-cut, dolly-shot, bullet-hole-cam madness of Sam Raimi's THE QUICK AND THE DEAD (1995).
In this tribute to Sergio Leone's ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST (1968), Gene Hackman delivers one of his most villainous performances as old west tyrant John Herod, who draws every shootist to his desert town...2025-05-0849 minOld Movies For Young StonersS4E4 Easter 420 with Jesus Christ Superstar (1973) & The Day the Earth Stood Still (51)Easter falls on 4/20 this year so we've got HIPPY JESUS and SPACE JESUS with JESUS CHRIST SUPER STAR (1973) and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL (1951). While Hippy Jesus screaming in the desert and Space Jesus getting shot at by jittery soldiers in Cold War Washington D.C. All this plus Carl Anderson delivering the performance of a lifetime as Judas Iscariot and GORT, the giant silver robot, melting tanks and cannons. This episode has Philena singing "I Don't Know How to Love Him" and Bob saying "Gort Klaatu Barada Nikto" to make her stop. What's the Buzz? We are buzzed.

Truth to PonderJudicial Clowns… Little People with Little Fiefdoms.It has been sad to watch how well-educated grown adults can act like such petulant children. The most recent of the “maturity challenged” having temper tantrums wear black robes and sit on the benches of our Federal Courts. These clownish judges make a mockery of our entire legal system, and a pathetic joke of our American Constitution. These are unfit partisan hacks who are legislating unconstitutionally from the bench and making total buffoons of themselves in the process. They put the entire United States Justice System in jeopardy. It is lawfare on steroids. On the...2025-03-2159 min
Truth to PonderWhy Do the Wicked Prosper?Does it ever seem that honest and godly people do not fare as well in this world as those whose hearts are wicked? Does it seem troublesome that some people in the conservative or patriot movement can live comfortable lives, yet you don’t? Does is disturb you that many who claim to be preachers of God with some kind of special “Inside” biblical knowledge prosper while those who share the simple truth don’t? Bob addresses that issue today and more.

Ngaio Bealum w/ Tampopo (1985) and The Incredible Mr. Limpet (64)Cannabis comic Ngaio Bealum is back and we are livin' the dream with a pair of movies about strivers who live their dreams, and their dreams are really friggin' weird.
First, Nobuko Miyamoto is a single mom with dreams of making the greatest ramen in all of Japan and Tsutomu Yamazaki is the cowboy trucker who is going help her achieve her dream in TAMPOPO, a "ramen western" from director Juzo Itami in 1985. This movie is filled with surreal tangents, tasty-looking food and a fair amount of freaky sex! Describing the plot does not do it justice. It's...2025-03-061h 28Old Movies For Young StonersS4E2 David Lynch Tribute w/ The Grandmother (1970) & The Wizard of Oz (39)David Lynch left this world on Jan. 16, 2025 at a time when we were all coping with way too much tragedy. While Lynch's drugs of choice were coffee and cigarettes (along with griddle cakes drenched in maple syrup), we pay tribute to him by pairing weed with a selection of his short films and THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939), a movie he was so obsessed with that there's a whole documentary about it.
For Lynch's short films, we mostly focus on THE GRANDMOTHER (1970), a 33-minute student film where an abused boy cultivates his own grandma out of a disgusting tree he...2025-02-161h 31Old Movies For Young StonersS4E1 Cory's Stony Hang Movies w/ Cisco Pike (1971) & Arnold's Wrecking Co. (73)As this new year is hurled upon us, Cory decided we need to slow things down a bit with what he calls "stony hang movies," AKA movies that are actually about weed for a change. While we have featured movies with Vincent Price mainlining LSD, we have somehow avoided the subject of cannabis itself in the selection of our films altogether, so Cory curated this double feature from the depths of Tubi and Roku's catalogs.
In our first movie, Gene Hackman is a crooked LA cop who forces burnt-out rock star Cisco Pike (Kris Kristofferson) to sell 100 keys of...2025-01-231h 40Old Movies For Young StonersS3E17 Nosfera-Two Christmas with Nosferatu (1922 & 1979) featuring Matthew Zoller SeitzRobert Eggers' remake of NOSFERATU will be stalking movie theaters on Christmas Day 2024, so Bob and Greg sit down with movie critic Matthew Zoller Seitz of Vulture/New York Magazine and www.RogerEbert.com to discuss the previous versions of the defining vampire classic. But before we get into that, Matt talks about his love of Robert Eggers as a filmmaker, and takes a deep dive into THE NORTHMAN (2022), Eggers' retelling of Shakespeare's Hamlet as a bloody and ironic Viking tale. We also talk about Eggers' THE LIGHTHOUSE (2019) as slapstick comedy, and different takes on DRACULA, as NOSFERATU started as...2024-12-071h 05

Mike has chosen two wildly different takes on the Bogart persona from two of Hollywood greatest directors.
First, it's the classic mystery that made Bogie a star with THE MALTESE FALCON from first-time director John Huston in 1941. Bogart is San Francisco private dick Sam Spade in this veritable blueprint for all the detective noir that followed it.

Retrophilia: The '90s in Music, Film & CultureWrestling in the ‘90s: Conversation with Bob CalhounPro-wrestling really had a chokehold on our imaginations in the ‘90s. Whether our brains were being bodyslammed by WWF (WWE) or beat down by WCW, we loved every choreographed minute of the glammy, absurd high drama. Perhaps the most ‘90s of all wrestling shows of that time was the punk rock DIY version, Incredibly Strange Wrestling, which got its start in San Francisco in 1995 and then toured the world. Imagine an even more unhinged take on pro-wrestling mixed with the spirit (and sometimes masks) of Luche Libre and in-your-face Jackass-style antics.

Rowan Lee w/ The Creeping Flesh (1973) & The Crimson Cult (68)With Halloween only 21 days away, folk horror blogger Rowan Lee joins us to discuss a pair of offbeat Brit horror movies with totally loaded casts.
First, Peter Cushing discovers that the humanoid fossil he discovered in New Guinea transforms into the slimy embodiment of pure evil when you just add water in THE CREEPING FLESH (1973). In a film with f--d-up family dynamics, Cushing almost immediately injects cells from his creepy skeleton's newly formed flesh into his young daughter (Lorna Heilbron) in a hair-brained attempt to inoculate her against evil. Christopher Lee is Cushing's hyper-competitive half-brother who mismanages a mental...2024-10-101h 36Old Movies For Young StonersS3E13 Feminist Westerns feat.

Both of these films have surprisingly feminist themes while being directed by two of the studio system's true iconoclasts.
First, Joan Crawford as saloon keeper Vienna is pitted against Mercedes McCambridge as the sexually-frustrated matriarch Emma Small in JOHNNY GUITAR (1954) for control of an Arizona town, and its two most eligible bachelors: The Dancin' Kid (Scott Brady) and Johnny Guitar (Sterling Hayden).

For this, Odie has programmed two equally stony but very different examples of the film movement that further funkified the 1970s. First, Shakespearean actor William Marshall brings dignity and pathos to the title character of the horror classic, BLACULA from American International Pictures in 1972. (Where would this podcast be without AIP???) We debate how to pronounce the name of BLACULA costar Thalmus Rasulala and Odie explains why Count Dracula is a redneck.

Hitler was named chancellor of Germany in January 1933, and the Marx Brothers spoofed the shit out of him by the end of the year with DUCK SOUP, which is widely considered to be their greatest work.

First, LEE MARVIN is punching dudes in the nuts and throwing them out of high-rise windows all to get his $93,000 back in POINT BLANK (1967). It's heavy on the testosterone but has lots of psychedelic and French New Wave touches from then-young director JOHN BOORMAN, who went on to make some of the trippiest movies ever made with EXCALIBUR (1981) & ZARDOZ (1974). Also starring Angie Dickenson, Sharon Acker, Carrol...2024-06-171h 23Old Movies For Young StonersS3E7 The Bret Berg Made for TV Museum w/ Gargoyles (1972) & Death of a Cheerleader (94)Bret Berg from the Museum of Home Video and the American Genre Film Archive joins us and he has chosen a pair of made for TV movies ranging from 70s horror to 1990s ripped-from-the-headlines true crime.
Our first feature is GARGOYLES (1972) one of the many TV terrors that scarred Gen-Xer childhoods. Cornel Wilde and Jennifer Salt are a father-daughter team of occult researchers who discover a race of living gargoyles in the caves of New Mexico. Former SF 49er and LA Ram Bernie Casey in full-body Sam Winston make-up effects plays the winged-stuff of nightmares as the Gargoyles' leader + Scott...2024-05-281h 19Old Movies For Young StonersS3E6 PhilenApocalypse II w/ But I'm a Cheerleader (1999) & Sleepover (2004)It's been delayed, but IT COULD NOT BE STOPPED. The PhileApocalypse is here!!! The episode where Philena takes over and subjects the OMFYS olds to MORE RECENT FILMS--movies from this century even! Can they take it?!? The answer may surprise you.
First, Philena goes easy on the geezers with BUT I'M A CHEERLEADER (1999)--an actual good movie! Is such a thing possible??? Natasha Lyonne is Megan, a cheerleader whose love of Melissa Etheridge and tofu convinces her god-fearing parents (Mink Stole and Bud Cort!) to pack her off to a conversion camp run to get her off the path...2024-05-061h 17Old Movies For Young StonersS3E5 - Bringing Up Hawks w/ His Girl Friday (1940) & The Thing from Another World (51)The PhilenApocalypse has been postponed! While Philena ain't too thrilled with this development, we were able to keep our already inconsistent schedule with this Howard Hawks double feature, which is like a PhilenApocalypse prequel because her contrarian take on Howard Hawks' screwball classic BRINGING UP BABY (1938) is what landed her on OMFYS. In short, she hates it--AFI Top 100 or no. Because of this, Bob programmed two wildly-different films from the versatile Hawks' filmography, and with wildly different results.
First, we've got HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940), another classic screwball comedy from Hawks. Cary Grant is Walter Burns, a conniving newspaper publisher who...2024-04-191h 08Old Movies For Young StonersS3E4 Kaiju Unite w/ Son of Godzilla (1967) and Destroy All Monsters (1968)S3E4 Kaiju Unite w/ Son of Godzilla (1967) and Destroy All Monsters (1968)
With GODZILLA X KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE upon us, we salute the Big G himself, GODZILLA, with a pair of his movies made a year apart from each other, that show his tremendous range. First, the radioactive mutant dinosaur tackles family comedy in SON OF GODZILLA (1967), the "Courtship of Eddie's Father" of kaiju movies. But unlike so many movie and TV single dads, Godzilla has to rear young Minya while battling overgrown mantises and a freaky-assed spider called Kumonga.

First up is THE DEVILS (1971), Ken Russell's masterpiece of blasphemy, demonic possession and religious persecution in 17th Century France. Oliver Reed is Urbain Grandier, an impossibly hot Jesuit priest, and Vanessa Redgrave is Sister Jeanne des Anges, a delusional nun who claims that she is possessed by the devil, and that devil works with Grandier.

Mike's choice, MURDER MY SWEET (1944), is one of the first examples of film noir, and its success--along with DOUBLE INDEMNITY from the same year--added the spark that set off late 40s film noir explosion. It's also a way stoney and a total gateway drug to classic cinema with its snappy dialog and its trippy AF hallucination sequences.

Billed as "The First Electric Western," Country Joe & the Fish, the James Gang and the New York Rock Ensemble show up with their late-1960s Gibson guitars and Fender stacks even though everything else about the movie takes place in the 19th Century.

Independent filmmaker Floyd Webb joins us once again for a pair of classic near-noirs that show that the music business was scammy and sleazy long before Spotify, but it was maybe a little cooler when you had Walter Matthau in a smoke-filled backroom plotting how to screw the talent. First, we've got Charles Mingus on bass, Dave Brubeck on keys and Patrick McGoohan from THE PRISONER (!) on drums--and he's really playing those drums--in ALL NIGHT LONG (1962), a jazzified retelling of Shakespeare's Othello from British director Basil Dearden.

We kick things off with Seijun Suzuki's psychedelic yakuza noir, TOKYO DRIFTER (1966). This isn't Beatsploitation per se, but there are plenty of dudes in mod suits and the film is so incomprehensible that it's gotta be poetry man. Plus it's got jazz, rock and roll, 60s bubblegum pop, and haunting Japanese torch songs. Audra asks if this movie is really a noir, and Bob wonders if it's actually a musical...2023-07-281h 26

We did get a little chatty with the joyous reunion and all, and our movies this time gave us a lot of psychological baggage to unpack, so this ep is, um, expansive.

First, we go to France for CLEO FROM 5 TO 7 (1962), a masterpiece from Agnès Varda, the mother--or grandmother--of the French New Wave.

Both films are tense AF depictions of desperate men trying to pull off that one last score. Both movies were also made by domineering filmmakers, so, as Ngaio says, this could have been our asshole director episode.
First up, is THE KILLING (1956), a cutting-edge noir from a young Stanley Kubrick making his first Hollywood studio film. Made on a shoestring budget, Kubrick still shows more than mere glimpses of his future promise with...2023-01-201h 14

Big thanks to Tigger Franklin for her witchy cackle. It's a family affair here on OMFYS--a Franklin family affair.

Fortunes have been made and lost over advances in technology ever since the stone age gave way to bronze. And Hollywood has definitely seen more than its share of it over the past 100 years or so with talking pictures, television, home video and streaming all bringing on one form of creative destruction or another to the movie industry. In this episode, we talk about a pair of classic films that tackle this topic.

First, we've got the superhero as a metaphor for American imperialism, racism and police brutality in MR. FREEDOM (1968), a savage satire produced in France and directed by American expat William Klein. In "Mr. Freedom," fellow expat John Abbey (The Sandpiper) plays a sociopathic himbo in red, white and blue football pads who takes a break from beating up Black people to keep the "mixed-up, sniveling crybabies" of France from falling...2022-09-231h 14Old Movies For Young StonersS1E10 - Musical Madness w/ On the Town (1949) & Lisztomania (1975)In our terrific tenth episode, we delve into the hallucinogenic possibilities of the most surreal movie genre of them all -- the musical!

First, Elvis Presley himself is a karate-chopping, motorcycle-riding, rock and roll rebel with a big chip on his shoulder who falls in with a traveling carnival in ROUSTABOUT (1964). Only Elvis' singing can keep the carnival from being gobbled up by a sideshow conglomerate, so it's up to carny queen Barbara Stanwyck (!) to convince him to stop being a dick long enough to save the show in what is (kinda sorta) the Elvis movie version of Nightmare Alley.

Just when things couldn't get any worse, they do when he hooks up with Ann Savage as Vera, the venom-spitting queen cobra of all film noir.

First, young Valerie (Jaroslava Schallerová) finds her journey into womanhood fraught with grotesque vampires, pervy priests and vicious polecats in the Czech new wave weirdness of Valerie and Her Week of Wonders (1970). Then, Italian maestro Federico Fellini explores similar themes in Juliet of the Spirits (1965) where his wife and muse Giulietta Masina is thrust into a dreamlike world by suspicions of her husband's infidelity.

First, there's Dragonwyck--a haunting gothic romance from 1946 where Price hides in an attic and tokes opium to escape from the sounds of a ghostly harpsichord that plays in his family estate.
