They Must Be Destroyed On Sight!

Lee is joined by special guests hosts Ricky Morgan and Gary Hill to blast off to planet Mongo and talk about "Flash Gordon" (1980), directed by Mike Hodges. Spoilers: they all love it, but still have fun talking about its place in history, especially being a sci-fi fantasy film post-"Star Wars". The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late.

Lee and Daniel are joined by friend and fellow podcaster Gary Hill to pick up on a thread they want to pull after talking about "Seven Psychopaths" last week: post Tarantino films. This week they check out "Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead" (1995), directed by Gary Fleder. Is it as bad as its reputation would lead you to believe? The host also talk about what they've watched as of late. Come have some boat drinks with us, just don't get the dreaded buckwheat.

Lee and Daniel get a little crazy this week as they talk about Martin McDonagh's "Seven Psychopaths" (2012). A meta commentary on the post-Tatantino crime film, and really just how films are made in general, it features an amazing cast, and the hosts have a lot to dig into this week. Also, in relation to the last episode on "The Spook Who Sat by the Door" (episode 363), the hosts respond to a blog post that makes a good case that the film had some deceptive myth-making behind it from the writer of the source material, Sam Greenlee. Also, Lee talks about what he's been watching as of late. Come out to the desert with us for a shoot-out... or maybe just some deep conversations about violence and redemption.

Lee is joined this week by friends and fellow podcasters Matt and Vaughn to cover a film unfairly slotted into the Blaxploitation genre, and a film that was pressured out of the theatres by the FBI, and thought lost for years: Ivan Dixon's "The Spook Who Sat by the Door" (1973), based on the controversial 1969 novel of the same name by Sam Greenlee. The three white as snow hosts have a pretty good conversation about a very black film, that's politically far deeper and more angry than most other black films of the era. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late. Join the Cobras with us, and lets take down the white establishment!

Lee & Daniel are joined by fellow podcaster Daeron Wilson (of the The Psychosemantic Podcast) to cover the late 1990s coming of age punk rock hangout film "SLC Punk!" (1998), written and directed by James Merendino and starring Matthew Lillard & Michael Goorjian. Punk culture, posers, sell-outs, and crazy Til Schweiger threatening to steal the entire film away, are just a few of the things talked about. Are you selling out or buying in?

Lee and Daniel are joined by returning guest Matt Anderson to follow up on their episode covering "Panic in the Streets" (episode 341), by talking about Earl McEvoy's "The Killer That Stalked New York" (1950), which was released later in the same year as "Panic..." and largely covers the same subject matter. Is this a cheap rip-off or cash-in, or is this one worth checking out? One of our podcast girlfriends pops up, in the always wonderful Dorothy Malone, but does she get anything to do? The hosts also spiral into a bunch of asides and talk about what they've watched recently. Get your vaccinations, and try not to put your mouth on public fountains while you listen!

Russ Meyer loved women. Women with big boobs, big curves, and big personalities. His entire career was all about putting his fetishes on screen in nudie cuties, dramas, crime films, mondo movies, sex comedies, and any other sort of exploitation film he could get away with, often all in the same film! This month Lee's built a big playlist of selections from his peak years, which stretched from the early 1960s through to the late 1970s. --The Escaped Prisoner from "Lorna" (1964) --Hal Hopper --Lorna from "Lorna" (1964) --Hal Hopper & Bob Grabeau --Whiskey Mash from "Mudhoney" (1965) --André Brummer --Mysterioso Minor & The Snatch from "Faster, Pussycat!

Lee and Daniel are joined this episode by returning guest Wick to cover a film he wanted to talk about, Sydney Pollack's "Tootsie" (1982), starring Dustin Hoffman. A lot of the conversation revolves around just how well this film plays in 2026, and if it's really fair to be too critical of it given when it was made and what it actually is trying to talk about. It turns out to be one of the more spirited discussions we've had on the show. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late. Put on your best dress, high heels, and wig, and give us a listen.

As a tribute to the recently passed Rob Reiner, Lee and Daniel cover the two Stephen King Adaptations he directed, those being 1986's "Stand by Me" & 1990's "Misery". A lot of the conversation revolves around Reiner's strengths as an actor's director, and re-casting a possible "Misery" remake. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late, and they read a listener comment.

2025 is in the rearview mirror, and Lee is joined by Daniel to talk about the best things they watched for the first time in that year. Unlike some previous years, the hosts have kept the show a bit shorter this time around, only having a top 10 list and some honourable mentions (oh, and Lee has one film to shit on as well!).

Lee decided to end off 2025 on a spicy note by covering some of the soundtracks and scores of some notable porno films from the "Golden Age" of the genre, which spanned the late 1960s to the early 1980s. You know, when they were actual films, or were at least trying to be, and were almost all funded by mob money. --Introducing Linda Lovelace from "Deep Throat" (1972) --Gerard Damiano --Blowin' Bubbles from "Deep Throat" (1972) --Lion Warfield and The Lions --Bareass Naked/Ass Tray; Johnny Keys' Theme; Sisters; & Climax from "Behind the Green Door" (1972) --Dan LeBlanc --Hellcat & The Teacher from "The Devil in Miss Jones" (1973) --Alden Shuman & Frank Owens --She's Gotta Have It from "Deep Throat Part 2" (1974) --T.J.

Lee and Daniel finish up their Robert Redford retrospective by talking about two of his directorial efforts. First off they talk about the slow-paced but harrowing gut punch that is "Ordinary People" (1980), and then they look at the more high-energy "Quiz Show" (1994). The hosts also briefly mention what they've watched recently.

Lee and Daniel continue their look at some Robert Redford this episode, covering Alan J. Pakula's paranoid thriller based on the book about the Watergate investigation, "All the President's Men" (1976), and Barry Levinson's slice of American baseball mythology, "The Natural" (1984). One of these films does the leg work and checks it sources, while the other strikes out badly. The hosts also talk about what they've watched recently. Batter up!

Lee & Daniel are back on some Redford this week (as well as a return to George Roy Hill and William Goldman!) with "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" (1969), also starring Paul Newman and Katharine Ross. Poly triads, Western revisionism, and bad white boy Spanish are all things brought up this time around. The hosts also talk a bit about what they've watched as of late.

Lee and Daniel are joined by Lee's long-time best friend Peter to talk about a movie they bonded over back in high school in the late 1990s, "The Stöned Age" (1994), directed by James Melkonian. This R-rated stoner buddy comedy feels like the crude love child of "Dazed and Confused" & "Wayne's World". Is it perhaps better than both of those films? Is it at least more fun? The hosts also talk about what they've watched recently, and Peter, being a first-time guest, gets to play a round of Beyond Belief: Movie Fact or Fiction. Do you want to play submarine? Don't be a worm, bring a case of Ox 45 along (they better be fucking talls!), and listen in.

Lee & Daniel return after a short break, and are joined by returning guest hosts Vaughn and Wick to look at a couple of films starring the recently departed Robert Redford. First up it's the well-known paranoid thriller "Three Days of the Condor" (1975), directed by Sydney Pollack, and then they look at the slightly less-talked about "The Great Waldo Pepper" (1975), directed by George Roy Hill.
