I was aware of the fact before but there was something about this particular watch session that had me transfixed. This was a new take on the 'drug cinema' genre that led into the 90s. Just so happens to be one of my favorite genres to explore.In this episode I get into the Kurt Cobain connection via William Burroughs, the dark comedy, incredible fashion, and why this has been a cult classic for decades.works mentioned: Kurt Cobain & William Burroughs collab , Post on Fashion Grunge ---Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more…) and to support the show join the Patreon!

Know what I mean, Vern?!

Kicking off our House of Carpenter series, we head to the far-flung future of 1997, where Manhattan is a walled-off maximum security prison and Air Force One has just gone down inside it. John Carpenter's 1981 cult classic follows his Halloween breakout by moving from horror into dystopian action, with Kurt Russell's Snake Plissken bringing a Western gunslinger's swagger, a synth score you'll be humming for days, and Isaac Hayes as the Duke of New York. It's also a showcase of low-budget ingenuity, from a real night shoot on Liberty Island to a "computer" glider sequence built with neon tape, black light, and physical models. Join Darren, Tristan, and John as they get their gliders ready and ask whether Snake still has the goods 45 years later.

This week on High on Home Grown, we welcome back a very good friend of the show, Jordan River, host of GrowCast! Jordan has been on the show before, so this isn't your typical interview where we sit down and run through a list of cannabis questions. Instead, we catch up with an old friend and end up talking about just about everything! We do, of course, discuss the upcoming US seed ban and what Jordan thinks it could mean for the American cannabis community, breeders and the wider industry. But from there the conversation heads in all sorts of directions. We get into Texas Hold'em poker, chess, coffee, the trauma inflicted on us by 80s movies, and plenty of other random topics that somehow seemed perfectly sensible at the time. Jordan also tells us about his new coffee brand, including his THC-infused coffee, and we talk about the idea of combining two of life's greatest pleasures: caffeine and cannabis! This is less of a formal interview and more of a proper catch-up between friends. There's cannabis, but there's also poker, chess, coffee, movies, business, nostalgia, the changing US legal landscape and plenty of completely unexpected tangents. If you've listened to Jordan's previous appearances on High on Home Grown, you'll know exactly what you're in for. If you haven't, this is a great introduction to one of our favourite conversations to have when the microphones are switched on. A relaxed, funny and wide-ranging conversation with a good friend of the show. Grab a coffee, settle in and enjoy the ride!

**Pain don't hurt.**

Danny (Emmy-nominee Rob Lowe) and Debbie (Oscar-nominee Demi Moore) are two young Chicagoans who meet at their favorite bar, start to date, move in together....and eventually fall in love.  And they each have two best friends (Elizabeth Perkins, Jim Belushi) who have conflicting feelings about each of their new partners which sometimes complicates things.  That's pretty much the entire story but what made this romantic comedy so special forty years ago when it was first released was the writing, the performances, the '80's Chicago setting, and even the songs.  Co-written and directed by Edward Zwick (Glory, Love and Other Drugs, Blood Diamond, The Last Samurai), let's review what would end being one of THE prototypical rom-com's of its era. Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/ 

On the latest episode of the podcast, Jamie thinks that Jason should put away the hockey mask and just go for a more comfortable ski mask with may be some earmuffs, Doug decides that it's about time he names his penis, and we both wish nothing more than to have spent more time with Demon in this movie.

Allen and RD punch the clock and head back to 1980 for **9 to 5**, the workplace comedy starring Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton, and Dabney Coleman.We're talking about the chemistry between the three leads, Franklin Hart being one of the most hateable bosses ever put on screen, the ridiculous revenge fantasies, Dolly Parton stealing scenes in her first feature film, and a theme song that's basically impossible not to sing along with.More than 45 years later, does **9 to 5** still work — and how much of this workplace comedy is somehow STILL relatable today?Grab a beer, clock in, and find out what we thought!#9to5 #DollyParton #JaneFonda #LilyTomlin #80sMovies #PartTimeNerd

Chad Westport is back on High on Home Grown! Chad has become a great friend of the show over the years, and whenever he comes on we know we're in for a proper session. This time around, there's plenty to talk about as Chad gives us an update on what's been happening with his websites, the difficulties he's having selling his seeds, and the growing uncertainty surrounding the coming US seed ban and what that could mean for breeders, seed sellers and growers across America. But, as usual with Chad, we don't spend the entire conversation talking about cannabis! We get sidetracked into 80s movies, TV shows, nostalgia and all sorts of other random stuff, before inevitably finding our way back to cannabis, breeding and the current state of the industry. We also chat about what Chad has been working on, the challenges of trying to run a seed business in an increasingly complicated environment, and what the future might look like for his genetics and online projects. If you've listened to Chad's previous appearances on the show, you'll already know what you're getting here. A relaxed conversation with a good mate of the show, plenty of laughs, plenty of cannabis chat, and probably a few tangents along the way! Chad has previously joined us for everything from podcasting and YouTube to breeding projects and Westport University, so it was great to get him back on the show and catch up with him again.

Allen and Rapid Dave head back to 1986 for RAD!

We're bringing back our Mostly Horror rubric for another movie, this time with the 1987 Disney animated film, The Brave Little Toaster. It's a movie that we watched as young kids, and despite it being a Disney animation, its nightmare scenes, eerie music, and dark undertones still unsettle us to this day. That's why we put it to the test to determine whether we'd consider it not a horror film, horror adjacent, mostly horror, or a certified horror film. We take into consideration its iconography and put it through the campfire test (would it still be horror if it were a story told around a campfire?), the crowd test (how would others react?), and residue test (how much did it haunt you after watching it?) to come to our conclusions. And with its terrifying clown nightmare scene, themes of suicide, and creepy settings, The Brave Little Toaster might have more horror to it than you remember. So come on this journey with us as we dig up this movie from our childhood that still sits unsettlingly with us to this day. Did this movie scare you as a kid? How much of it would you consider horror? Make sure to ... COME HANG OUT!!!

Baby Pictures, Bad Qi, and Above the Law: Steven Seagal's Debut Under the MicroscopeWelcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Show. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell welcome special guest Dorian Lenz of the Neighborhood Comedy Theatre to dig into Above the Law (1988), the film that introduced the world to Steven Seagal's particular blend of aikido, righteous fury, and remarkable hair choices. Expect origin-story skepticism, mullet taxonomy, and a genuinely heated debate about who runs worse on camera.The trio wrestles with what it takes to launch a brand-new action hero from scratch, sizing Seagal's debut up against the star-making runs of Van Damme, Schwarzenegger, and Chuck Norris, and questioning whether a movie this tangled holds any weight beyond nostalgia. They also can't quite agree on whether the hero is really upholding the law, or just the character most openly ignoring it.Conversation fuel includes a full ranking of the film's mullet hierarchy, a surprisingly serious debate about aikido's limitations against firearms, growing admiration for a scene-stealing supporting performance, and very specific opinions about Seagal's uniquely awkward running form.It's a chat that stays at the premise level, sidestepping the film's late reveals in favor of curiosity about how this particular action star got built, one bone-crushing choice at a time.TruStory FM | Membership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): Join | Socials: Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | Learn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy Theatre | Squishy StudiosWhich 80s action star do you think nailed their very first movie the hardest? ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

He's Not Canon, But He's Bond: Revisiting Never Say Never AgainWelcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Show. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell welcome special guest Pete Wright of Trustory.fm to dig into Never Say Never Again (1983), the unofficial Bond outing that dragged Sean Connery back into the tux via one very petty lawsuit.The trio wrestles with this film's odd status: no John Barry theme, no Aston Martin, yet a leading man everyone insists is somehow the definitive 007 anyway. That push-pull between “unofficial” and “essential” drives the talk, especially once conversation turns to how this Connery stacks up against every other Bond.From there it's conversation fuel: a laser watch treated like scripture, a shark chase that may have inspired an Austin Powers bit, and a supporting cast the hosts can't stop gushing over, including a memorable early film role. Very-1983 touches keep things loose.It lands somewhere warm and a little chaotic, fitting for a movie that sits in a contested corner of a franchise everyone loves arguing about. Nothing here spoils the plot, so newcomers and completists can listen freely.LinksTruStory FM | Membership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): Join | Socials: Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | Learn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy Theatre | Squishy StudiosIf you could keep just one gadget from this movie for yourself, which would it be? ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

MANN WEEK continues....(Michael Mann that is) Forty years ago, Oscar-nominated legend Michael Mann (Heat, The Last of the Mohicans, Collateral) wrote and directed this adaptation of the best-selling novel "Red Dragon" from acclaimed author Thomas Harris.  This was the FIRST big screen adaptation of Harris' series of stories featuring the iconic character of Hannibal Lector, five years before the Oscar-winning box office phenomenon of The Silence of the Lambs which won Sir Anthony Hopkins his Oscar for potraying Lector.  However unlike 'Silence, this film was NOT a success upon release as the subject matter of a criminal profiler tracking down a brutal serial killer had not yet been embraced by mainstream audiences.  For this particular story, that FBI profiler is Will Graham played by William Petersen (To Live & Die In LA, CSI) and he is on the hunt for an elusive killer who refers to himself as the "Red Dragon" - that would be Francis Dollarhyde played by the late, great Tom Noonan (Heat, Last Action Hero) who is also struggling with his identity as he pursues new victims.  And in THIS version of the story, Hannibal Lector is played by Emmy-winner Brian Cox (Succession, Adaptation, X2) though in a smaller role as he is periodically visited by Graham for advice.....the same FBI agent who also initially arrested him, at great personal cost.  This eventual cult classic also co-stars Dennis Farina, Kim Greist, Joan Allen, and Stephen Lang. Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

The Living Daylights: Cello Cases, Cargo Nets, and Timothy Dalton's Big DebutWelcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Show. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell welcome special guest Nate McWhortor to dig into The Living Daylights (1987), the movie that hands the tuxedo to a brand-new 007 and asks the trio whether “Bond summer” gets even better on the second stop.The conversation keeps circling one big question: is this a reinvention of Bond, or just a reset with the same gadgets, puns, and glamour dialed to a slightly darker frequency? The hosts and their guest trace how Timothy Dalton's colder, more calculating take lines up with Ian Fleming's original novels, and debate whether that grounded edge helps or just makes the romance feel more like manipulation than seduction.From there it's pure conversation fuel: gadget nostalgia, a running bit about how many ways a car can be split in half, strong opinions about a villain lineup that never quite finds its footing, and a genuine soft spot for all the wonderfully “very 1987” touches sprinkled throughout. Supporting characters get their own spotlight too, with a few earning surprise fan-favorite status.It all wraps with real affection for Dalton's swing at the role, some good-natured ranking chatter, and a shared curiosity about where his era goes next. This one stays premise-level and spoiler-light throughout, more about vibes and debate than beat-by-beat plot details.TruStory FM | Membership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): Join | Socials: Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | Learn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy Theatre | Squishy StudiosIf you had to design Bond's next sexy assassin from scratch, what's their one signature weapon? ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

Forty years ago this summer, genre master David Cronenberg (Videodrome, Eastern Promises, The Dead Zone, Dead Ringers) directed this remake of the 1958 cult classic of the same name starring Vincent Price.  This is the updated story of Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum), a quirky scientist who has been developing an exciting new invention geared towards teleportation.  He meets an enterprising science reporter named Ronnie (Geena Davis) and together, they not only work to further this technoloy....but they also fall in love.  But then one fateful night alone, Seth makes the mistake of "teleporting while drunk" and the pod which he's using happens to have a house fly inside of it. :o And what results is a gradual, gruesome transformation for Seth into.....something else!  This film not only became a suprise box office hit but would also go on to win a VERY deserved Oscar for Best Makeup.  Be afraid, be very afraid. Also see below for a hysterical stand-up bit from Martin Lawrence about this movie which is cited in this review! :p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ITAthB4ai0Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/ 

It is impossible to have a horror podcast and not talk about ‘Friday the 13th' and ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street'. And most of our time has been spent wondering how there has not been a new entry in either of the fan favorite franchises for decades. We finally have a little bit of news on both of them. We also talk about the surprising success of Widow's Bay. If you take a 10,000 foot view of Rubberhead: The Life and Monsters of Steve Johnson, you will think you know exactly what it is about. And you would not be completely wrong. The documentary surprised us by being one of the most emotional and information watches we have ever had. If you grew up as a horror fan in the 1980s or early 90s, chances are you have seen Johnson's work. He invented Slimer, worked on ‘Species', created the arms for Doctor Octopus in ‘Spider-Man 2', and worked on the still outstanding special effects for ‘An American Werewolf in London'. And that is just the very tip of the iceberg. But along with being an incredible genius, he is also incredibly self-destructive. This makes Rubberhead one of the most frustrating watches of the year. His work is amazing, but he also knows what is shortcomings are and has no interest in fixing them. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

Forty years ago this summer, genre master John Carpenter (The Thing, Halloween, They Live) directed this big budget (for the time) extravaganza blending various genres including martial arts, fantasy, and crime drama.  Starring Kurt Russell in one of his more iconic roles as truckdriver Jack Burton, it was fast, funny, and phrenetically entertaining!  And yet no one really saw it in theaters. :( Fortunately this film did eventually find its audience on cable and video, becoming a cult classic and is now often looked upon as one of Carpenter's most believed movies.  It also features a STELLAR cast beyond Russell including Dennis Dun, Kim Cattrall, James Hong, and Victor Wong.  So let's hop on the Pork Chop Express and head to Chinatown!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/ 

On the latest episode of the podcast, Jamie waxes poetic about the smell of mimeograph ink, Doug is obsessed about how a grown pilot could possibly be engaged to a 17-year-old, and we both have absolutely no idea if that's a real dead body at the end.

Jeff Hiller is someone you've seen. If you haven't seen him in his Emmy-winning turn on SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE, you might have seen him on the (newly Emmy nominated) WIDOWS BAY or PLURIBUS (which has, since this interview took place, earned him his second Emmy acting nom). Or maybe you've seen his memoir, ACTRESS OF A CERTAIN AGE, on the bookstore shelves. If you don't know Jeff, now you will: in this episode, he  tells Jordan about his connections to the timeless star-studded Southern dramedy STEEL MAGNOLIAS. But first he shares the significance of a character who brought the romcom "gay best friend" front and center at last: it's  George from THE OBJECT OF MY AFFECTION, one of Paul Rudd's earliest roles. Then Jordan has one quick thing about a new can't-miss dad movie, William Kaufman's MAN OF WAR.  The cast of STEEL MAGNOLIAS on DONAHUE in 1989 Help support this show and unlock bonus content!

Welcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Show. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell welcome special guest Jeff Frank of the Knights of the Rolled Table Podcast to dig into A View to a Kill (1985), Roger Moore's final outing as 007. Expect microchips, motorized blimps, and real disagreement over just how silly a Bond movie can get.The debate circles one question: does this film's camp hold up, or has it curdled with age? Jeff argues the pieces fit the era but the whole never quite gels, while Krissy and Nathan find plenty to love in just how bonkers individual scenes get. Christopher Walken's underused villain, Grace Jones commanding every frame, and a running gag about Bond tormenting his undercover partner Sir Godfrey Tibbett all get their due, alongside snowboard chases and gloriously 1985 details.What keeps things warm rather than cynical is the affection beneath the ribbing, for Walken, for Moore's tired-but-game performance, and for a franchise more fun to discuss than defend. It stays at the premise level throughout, so newcomers and Bond completists alike can listen worry-free.TruStory FM | Membership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): Join | Socials: Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | Learn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy Theatre | Squishy StudiosIf you got to design one gloriously over-the-top scheme for a modern Bond villain, what would it be? ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

On the latest episode of the podcast, Doug decides to choose the definitive 'Worst Movie of the Podcast' by challenging Jamie to go through bad movies in a bracket format. If it seems to start and end abruptly, it's because we recorded this at the start of our episode on The Secret of My Success, but we pulled it out for an episode all its own. Expect a 'Best Movie of the Podcast' episode later this Summer.Visit our YouTube ChannelMerch on TeePublic Follow us on TwitterFollow on InstagramFind us on FacebookDoug's Schitt's Creek podcast, Schitt's & Giggles can be found here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/schitts-and-giggles-a-schitts-creek-podcast/id1490637008

This week on Erotic Thriller Club we've got a 70's pop star serial killer, police brutality, a man covered in piss that makes a break for it on a stolen motorcycle. Party Line is the big dumb fun we all need in our lives right now.

“He permed me!” Shelley Long donned red hair, a permanent smile, and a wide array of designer dresses for 1989's Troop Beverly Hills. Upon release, the comedy didn't sell nearly enough Wilderness Girls' cookies to break even at the box office, and it got no merit badges from critics either. But now, decades later, has our appreciation of Beverly Hills housewives evolved? Is it possible to garner sympathy for ultra-privileged kids? And what's Tori Spelling doing in this thing? The Old Roommates crack open some Evian and give the flick a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Make some s'mores and join them. Follow Old Roommates on social media @OldRoommates for bonus content and please give us a rating or review!#TroopBeverlyHills #JeffKanew #ShelleyLong #JennyLewis #bettythomas #craigtnelson 

On the latest episode of the podcast, Doug is sure to mention that sex with your boss is okay but sex with your aunt is not, Jamie reveals that she is a huge Mercedes Ruehl fan, and we both hope that no recent college grads ever followed this movie's advise.

“I'll meet you at the place near the thing where we went that time.” Yes, 1987's Broadcast News had quite a script, and quite a cast led by Holly Hunter, William Hurt and Albert Brooks. A lopsided love triangle, the three leads mismanaged emotions, insecurities, careers, and work timelines throughout the James L. Brooks hit. Nominated for seven Oscars, the movie skewered both modern love and ethics in media. But now, decades later, does it all feel like yesterday's news? Is a male “dumb blonde” as offensive as a female one? And are either of these two guys good enough for Hunter's Jane? The Old Roommates give the rom-com a revisit through their middle-aged lens.
