HAPPY HALLOWEEN NOSTALJUNKIES! One of the biggest and most enduring shows of all-time, THE SIMPSONS, not only influenced our love for dysfunction, but their beloved Halloween Specials (Treehouse of Horror) are to Halloween what Hallmark movies, in PJs, with gentle sobbing are to Christmas.Treehouse of Horror, also known as The Simpsons Halloween Specials, is a series of Halloween-themed episodes of the animated sitcom The Simpsons, each consisting of three separate, self-contained segments. These segments usually involve the Simpson family in some horror, science fiction, or supernatural setting. They take place outside the show's normal continuity and completely abandon any pretense of being realistic, being known for their far more violent and much darker nature than an average Simpsons episode. The first, entitled "Treehouse of Horror", aired on October 25, 1990, as part of the second season and was inspired by EC Comics horror tales. Since then, there have been 32 other Treehouse of Horror episodes, with one airing every year.Which ones are your favorite?Are you enjoying the podcast?

"I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave" . . . Paul Donovan's 1983 action-thriller SIEGE--aka SELF DEFENSE, aka NIGHT WARRIORS, aka NEW YORK 1991--is inspired by the real-life Halifax Police Strike of 1981.

One of the patrons escapes and finds refuge in the safety in the company Horatio (Tom Nardini) and his crew, who are willing to fight back.

YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A CAR. YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A HANDBAG. YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A TELEVISION. YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A MOVIE... but we did download and burn HUNDREDS of movies and albums in the late 90s and 00s. We take an action-packed run through our burnt CD and DVD spindles, revisiting our memories and collections of P2P downloading—Napster, KaZaA, Lime Wire, audiogalaxy, Scour, and more. Music, movies, software, and of course... PORN. So much porn. We also discuss early Slipknot (Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. and their self-titled debut), the origins of the 00s piracy crackdown and hate for Metallica/Lars (but he wasn't wrong), nu metal (again), discovering new musical tastes (death metal, Meshuggah, etc), burning mixes with Nero and wisely filling time on the discs, the high-cost of buying new albums (which may have justified the downloading, only to preview the album before you actually bought them), and why do we still remember the lyrics to Kid Rock's "Bawitdaba"? Spotify. Apple Music. STEAL THIS EPISODE!Are you enjoying the podcast?

Do you remember the musical fad known as NU METAL? WE DO! We were fans of it. We still listen to it. We're not too proud to admit it as metalheads--although some might because it isn't KVLT enough--but seriously... how good was the first KORN Self-Titled record? What about LIMP BIZKIT'S debut release "Three Dollar Bill Y'all"? Who were the pioneers of the genre? How many strings do you need? The fashion, or the lack thereof... We take deep dive into the obscurity of this metal subculture that (d)evolved from raw emotion to paint-by-numbers pop-metal.Are you enjoying the podcast?
