I Hate Bill MaherUNLOCKED! Nasty Old Man vs Condescending Old Man (Who is Nasty) feat John Hastings and Adam Christie (Clubs Random w/ Bella Thorne & Hawk Tuah)Hello everyone, I'm doing that thing where a podcast takes a bye week (every week is a "bi week" in my apartment, heh heh... ha... ha) and just posts one of its Patreon episodes. Genuinely, I feel like an asshole for doing it, but I'm insanely behind on all the podcast stuff and then earlier today I fucked my throat up in the most embarrassing way possible, so I'm just going to take it easy and maybe learn to chew my food more thoroughly, a thing that typically only babies need to learn.

Comedian John Hastings joins me to talk about his theory on modern grift culture's role in Real Time's resurgence, the complete and total absence of effort throughout Bill Maher's entire career, and a tonally bizarre episode of Real Time that gets completely fucked up by an absurdly inappropriate throwaway joke.

War Movie TheatreIn Which We ServeThis week, Rob and Duncan are telling the story of a ship... or, at least, the story of Noël Coward's story of a ship. It's In Which We Serve! Directed by Coward and David Lean (shipped in, no pun intended, for the action sequences) and starring Coward, John Mills, Bernard Miles, Celia Johnson and Richard Attenborough, this 1942 movie (yes, the war is still raging) tells what was then a very fresh story of the 1941 exploits of Lord Louis Mountbatten (here referred to as Captain Kinross) and the HMS Torrin. A good film? A good ship? And did this c...2023-02-0335 minIn The Past: Garage Rock PodcastFarmer JohnIn 1959, R&B Renaissance men Don & Dewey released the first version of the soon-to-be-classic, "Farmer John" (1:01).

Two years later, Carl & the Commanders brought out the next in the crop, an even faster take with wild drums, some tickling of the ol' ivory, and it ends with some slapback handclaps (42:42). in 1964, The Premiers presented the world with a raucous rendition of the number, but gave it a "Louie Louie"/ "Slauson Shuffle" backing, with some L...2023-01-292h 13

They were all trying to break out of Stalag Luft III – but can the film break out of the doldrums of mediocre moviemaking? Why is there an unhelpful American stuck in the cooler?

Insightful lyrics, impassioned vocals, great slide guitar, and some nice accompaniment from Washboard Sam to boot! Even though he denied it, jazzman Mose Allison adapted White's song in 1958, titling it "Parchman Farm" and giving the song a controversial punchline (43:43). His version was an unlikely dance hit amongst the British Mods, with an insistent piano riff, solid rhythm section backing, and lots of hipster irony.

There are just too many high-caliber, high-profile, and high-maintenance players in its stacked cast, and probably too much studio pressure for him to get away with anything weird.

Blocked PartyWill Weldon v. Elizabeth HackettWill Weldon (comedian, actor) joins the show for the third time but the first on a main episode, as we dig into his old "L.A. Meetings" bit on Twitter and find out how it led to getting blocked by a prominent screenwriter. Elsewhere on the show it's a preview of the Blocked Boys' weekend as we discuss the Vancouver "Heat Dome" and our plans to deal with it, and a tease of our Canadian Education episode this month leads to a discussion about poutine and other Canadian nonsense. Plus, we talk about children's books, John McAfee, Mikey Miles...2021-06-281h 36
A Degree Absolute!EXTRASODE: Village Mailbag, Indoors & OutChris and Glen respond to listener email and then take up a tactical position on the western emplacement of Glen's Remote Mountain Stronghold to discuss their IRL reunion and promised viewing of Rob Marshall's Best Picture-winning 2002 film version of John Kander & Fred Ebb's Chicago. Which has precisely nothing to do with The Prisoner but hey, we are, famously, a tangent-tolerant podcast. Then they read a few more listener emails. It's a bit anticlimactic, honestly. But the reunion was lovely, as are your emails. Write to the Citizens Advice Bureau at adegreeabsolute dot gmail!

Our podcastin' inspiration Matt Gourley joins us for a Cinerama epic of an episode that we didn't plan to release on Father's Day week, but the cookie happened to crumble serendipitously. Because our subject is a genuine, certified, no-foolin’ Dad Movie, Ice Station Zebra, based on The Guns of Navarone author Alistair MacLean's novel Ice Station Zebra. The moderately thrilling Cold War thriller that Patty McG cheated on The Prisoner with is an all-star affair featuring Rock “The Dwayne” Hudson, Ernest “Resistance is Futile” Borgnine, Jim “One Night in Miami” Br...2021-06-231h 36Behind The Play: an other history of Australian FootballEpisode 3: States of Origins - Football from 1858 to 1984.In which John and Ian once again get side tracked in their search for the golden game, the game as it should be, the football we all yearn for and seek to resurrect via our endless tinkering and tweaking. This time, while on the way to 1858 and the very birth of the game in Melbourne, Ian throws a spanner in the works, claiming that there was no birth and there is no origin. This leads to discussions involving the work of legendary Soccer Historian Roy Hay, friend of the show @AFLisnotthesport, George Orwell, Martin Flanagan and Greg de M...2021-06-1627 min
A Degree Absolute!The Girl Who Was DeathNumber Six must elude the tender embrace of a lady who probably uses pseudonyms at least as often as he does in a late-in-the-run-but-lavish filler episode that sends up the spy genre circa ’67 & burns plenty of Sir Lew Grade’s money. (He refused to finance a floated 90-minute version.) Justine Lord and Kenneth Griffiths are your magnificent guest stars, and Patty McG appears to be having a grand old time in the relatively few scenes where he's onscreen. Apparently he was called back to Los Angeles for a few more weeks of shooting on Ice Station Zebra late...2021-06-161h 33

A Degree Absolute!Do Not Forsake Me Oh My DarlingIt seems Patty McG had softened his "don't call it television because television cuts corners and we'll never ever do that" position by the time of The Prisoner's much-abbreviated second and final season, because for most of the production of this week's episode he decided his time would be better spent in Los Angeles co-starring in John Sturges' unmemorable 1968 thriller Ice Station Zebra with Rock Hudson, Ernest "Resistance Is Futile" Borgnine, and Jim Brown. "Chimes of Big Ben" screenwriter Vincent Tilsey got the unenviable job of coming up with a Prisoner story that would require neither the...2021-05-311h 39A Degree Absolute!A Change of MindNumber Six's Public Enemy Number Six act is getting tired — and what is alternately referred to within a single scene as The Committee, The Council, and The Commission will tolerate it for only so long before they decree that their prize captive must undergo Instant Social Conversion. It's a procedure so chilling that Number Eighty-Six (the marvelous Angela Browne) must narrate it step-by-step, and very, very slowly, so as not to induce panic. John Sharpe is our unctuous, openly misogynistic Number Two. Happily, we get to see Six's homebuilt crossfit gym in the woods once again. "A Ch...2021-05-261h 31Behind The Play: an other history of Australian FootballEpisode 2: Episodus InterruptusEpisode Two was supposed to be an in depth look at football as it was first codified in Melbourne in the 1850s, in an effort to begin the search for the golden game we're always harking back to. However, what actually happens is, John is thwarted in this quest by Ian who has to get off his chest the ideas that Australian Football is: a mish mash of inherent flaws, an arrogant, imperialistic endeavor and that it's not, after all, the great game it is cracked up to be. Dad's Army and Waiting for Godot are in there somewhere t...2021-05-2528 minThis is our musicA debate on the songs that we just don't likeFor this episode John and Thorsten are joined by a special guest - Boris from Dusseldorf!

Wherein Number Six gets anger-cruised and Kirks a computer, and Colin Gordon "returns" as Number Two from "A.B. & C." — an episode obviously intended to follow this one, but which was broadcast before — apparently having survived his encounter with a tumescent scarlet telephone handset and the unheard but clearly menacing voice on the other end of that line.

B. & C.Chris and Glen revisit the first of The Prisoner's nonessential episodes. It features Peter Bowles telling Patrick McGoohan “I want you,” a classic John McClane-style air-shaft constitutional, some dodgy fisticuffs, the plot of the 2010 Christopher Nolan film Inception, and a milk-drinking Colin Gordon as a Number Two menaced by an alarmingly erotic red phone. Nonessential, you say? Will we ever hear about Number Fourteen's Wonder Drug or this dream-viewing technology again? Perhaps, dear listenter. Perhaps.
