I've got excellent film writer Jerry McGlothlin on to discuss his works and recurring themes. Starting off with his recently restored Typhoon Club, I was drawn to Sōmai's unique and meditative take on the harsh coming-of-age film. Turns out that's a constant mode for him, with other films like P.P. Rider, Sailor Suit & Machine Gun, and Moving all delivering their own stabs at that painful loss of innocence. It was a fantastic chat and I hope it urges you to check out some of...2025-05-131h 23

ODC is really an "Experience" so singular and bursting with creativity that you'd expect Terry to be swimming in avant-garde art. Instead, Chiu is a devoted fan of the Insidious films and loves superhero movies.

Kahn's film is a doozy of patriarchal oppression, supernatural malevolence, and seething angst, all set in Karachi, Pakistan where two women struggle with the loss of the family patriarch. It's a super impressive debut and gave us plenty to talk about, like wrangling fire stunts, shooting a film during the pandemic, and Kahn's refreshing attitude on genre cinema.

Back when puppetry was mostly the domain of children’s entertainment, these movies brought enough graphic sex, drugs, and violence to traumatize any child unlucky enough to stumble upon them: Peter Jackson’s 1989 ultra-dark comedy MEET THE FEEBLES, and Gerard Damiano’s 1976 pornographic musical LET MY PUPPETS COME.

Anyway, what better to do on a completely ambiguous holiday such as Civic Day than spend ~100 minutes discussing the music from the previous month? My thoughts exactly. This month I welcome back Bob McCully to discuss the new Scarcity record and black metal in general, and I go deep on pop's newfound love for early dance music, as well as - of course - my other favourite records from July.

Boxcars711 Old Time RadioThe Adventures Of Sam Spade - The Missing Newshawk Caper (7-18-48)The Adventures of Sam Spade was a radio series based loosely on the private detective character Sam Spade, created by writer Dashiell Hammett for The Maltese Falcon. The show ran for 13 episodes on ABC in 1946, for 157 episodes on CBS in 1946-1949, and finally for 51 episodes on NBC in 1949-1951.
