BAD AUDIO NOTES: There was no recording yesterday because the mic cable is broken and ruined the recording. I tried again today with a replacement cable but it falls out 11 minutes in and the rest of the recording is quiet, and the gameplay drowns out my speaking. I would probably not post this one if I hadn't also skipped yesterday, but because I did here it is. I'm so sorry about the quality, it will be better again next week! :( You can find the deck import code below the following contact links.

Moviebreaks Spacejockeys sind zurück und dies gleich mit einem Doppelpack!

Doch damit nicht genug, denn der gute Thomas präsentiert als kleinen Bonus noch seine allerliebste Singstimme, um - extra für euch - einen überaus schmissigen Ohrwurm ins Mikro zu schmettern. Also, worauf wartet ihr noch? Drückt den Playbutton und lehnt euch entspannt zurück!
Gee whiz, folks, it's time for a brand-new episode of The Rotten Horror Picture Show Podcast, and this week Clay and Amanda are talking about one of the all-time greats of old-school creature features — The Blob from 1958! You know the one — that big ol' red goo from outer space that slurps its way through small-town America, eating everything (and everyone) in its path. It's the movie that made a young Steve McQueen a star and gave teenagers everywhere another reason not to trust meteorites. Clay and Amanda dig into the film's low-budget charm, its clever special effects, and why it's still such a perfect slice of drive-in-era horror. A monster that's literally just a blob shouldn't be scary — and yet somehow, it's terrifying.Now, I gotta be honest with you — as I am a teenager from the year 1958, this whole “podcast” thing? It gives me the willies. I mean, what is it, exactly? They say you listen to it on “the internet,” but I don't even know where that is. I looked behind my radio — nothing. Tried turning the TV knobs real slow — still nothing. Apparently, it's just floating around in the air, like… invisible radio waves, but for computers? And people are out there “streaming” it? Buddy, the only thing I want streaming near me is a nice cold root beer down at the soda fountain.But I'll tell ya, Clay and Amanda sure know their monster movies. They've got that hep-cat way of breaking down the scares, the science fiction, and the cultural panic of the atomic age. If you can figure out how to “download” it — whatever that means — you're in for a swell time. Just, uh… maybe keep an eye on your record player. I heard The Blob likes to start small.And be sure to catch our coverage of the remake over at Patreon.com/thepenskyfile!

Good Sunday to you,Before we go to today's piece, let me flag this week's commentary - on the action in the gold and silver markets, in case you missed it. A blip or the start of something more significant?So to the osteopath who isn't an osteopathI first met Michelle Davies at a James Delingpole event. She was buying one of my books and wanted to pay in bitcoin, which got her an immediate gold star. She mentioned quite matter-of-factly that she was an osteopath who had been struck off and, “would I like some treatment?”.As a man with many ailments accumulated over the decades, a large portion of which I have given up trying to heal, I couldn't see much downside to the offer. She might even be able to cure one of the incurables. “Why not?”, I thought.A few days later, in a studio near Worcester, she placed her hands behind my head, went still for a moment, announced that my energy channels were “terrible - blocked, nought out of ten,” manipulated my neck and head for a bit, muttered to herself, sighed, told me off for swearing, got me to speak into a microphone, and then began “sending me frequencies.” I left feeling oddly lighter.So I went back.“I'm trying to have a lucid dream,” I told her. “But I'm not making much progress.”I explained the difference between a vivid dream, which is what it says on the tin, and a lucid dream, which is a dream in which you know you are having a dream, while you have the dream. Keener readers will remember to “get better at lucid dreaming” was one of my ambitions for 2025.“Oh,” she said. “I might be able to help with that.” And she went to work on my channels again.That night, I had nine dreams. Nine. Normally I'd be lucky to remember one or two. None were fully lucid, but still - progress.I went back again. “Can you help me with my ankle?” I've got flat feet and my ankles are very stiff as a result. I've broken my right ankle five times.She held it, paused, and began to cry. “There's so much pain here,” she said. “I can't fix it completely,” she declared, “but I can make it much better”.My ankles are one of the many banes of my life. I still play football, but I am incapable of “putting my laces through it” - that is shooting with my instep. I've not been able to shoot properly since I was in my early 20s. It hurts so much - my foot involuntarily winces moments before I strike, so my whole game is little passes with the inside of my foot. It's limiting. I might get one goal in a game of six-a-side, maybe two if I'm lucky. Usually I don't score.“When are you playing next?” she asked.“Tomorrow.”“I'll broadcast to you,” she said.The following night I scored six goals. SIX.“Have you been having shooting lessons?” one of the other players asked, both miffed and baffled.“What is your biggest goal in life? Michelle asked at another session.“To get Kisses on a Postcard made,” I said.I explained what it is. We came up with a mantra, which I recorded and she layered with one of her frequencies. I began playing it each morning while doing the gentle stretches, which she told me to do, in bed. Three weeks later, I closed the seed funding round I had up to then been struggling with - oversubscribed, no less. All coincidence, I'm sure. But Kisses on a Postcard is finally moving forward.Osteopath No MoreMichelle Davies was a local osteopath in Worcester who had been practising for 25 years. Among the many things she found she was good at treating were sinusitis, asthma, anxiety, depression, baby colic & reflux, sleep issues and infections. The patient testimonials on her website confirmed as much.However, in 2016 the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) got in touch. In case you are not familiar, GOsC is osteopathy's contribution to The Blob, the army of unaccountable regulators which runs, if that's the right word, Britain, answerable to no man. (If you think the government is in charge, you're deluded).In the great British tradition of unelected bureaucrat, GOsC has discovered the elixir of Blob: a toxic mix of arrogance, incompetence, paperwork and regulatory overreach, which will satisfactorily obstruct any attempt at progress. GOsC explained to Michelle that osteopathy can only cure 12 things, and these do not include the items which Michelle had found she could treat. Unless she removed the 75 patient testimonials, she would face a Fitness to Practise case. She did as she was told and removed the lot.“But I can and have treated these things,” she thought. “I've got 75 testimonials to prove it”.So, in 2021, she brought a claim against GOsC for damages, arguing that their actions had limited her professional scope and censored the public's voice. GOsC questioned her fitness to practise, demanded a psychiatric assessment and access to her medical notes. She refused and was struck off. She could no longer call herself an osteopath. In fact, she eventually got a criminal record for, checks notes, “impersonating an osteopath”. (Read her google reviews, if you want the patients' side of this)BTW I know nothing of GOsC and I haven't researched their side of the story, nor do I care to. They're regulators, so my default position is biased against, and unless they can demonstrably prove they warrant a better opinion, that will remain my position. So Michelle began marketing herself as the osteopath who was stuck off. Three years on she has a practice in Harley Street, charging several times her old rate.Note to any osteopaths reading this: get yourself struck off. It's great for business.If you live in a Third World country, such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The bullion dealer I recommend is The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.A Healing WeekI later discovered she also offers “healing weeks.” She comes to stay with you and your family for seven days and treats everyone daily. I thought we could all use a tune-up, and to my surprise when I proposed the idea, the Frisby household agreed: my eldest son (24), his heavily pregnant girlfriend (23), and my eldest daughter who lives nearby (22).Each of us had 60–90 minutes of treatment every day - osteopathic manipulation, cranial work, red and blue light therapy, terahertz wand, frequencies, castor oil packs, and more.My pregnant daughter-in-law was having problems with acid reflux and carpal tunnel numbness. Michelle got rid of the former in one session, the latter took a couple. My son's hips and ankles loosened up, and he started sleeping better. My daughter's pelvis, inflamed from a childhood incident involving a pillowcase and a staircase (news to me), finally began to settle, and she has reported improvements to her PCOS. I also sent Goat, my bassist and who makes many of my videos, for some treatment (in exchange for filming the video below). He's had a heavy stammer all his life, After three sessions, you can actually have a normal conversation with him. Meanwhile, I have become an even more astounding human being. We're all still flawed humans, but by the end of the week everyone felt lighter, happier, and healthier, and the house had a different atmosphere.Maybe I'm a sucker. Maybe it's all placebo. Does it matter? I narrated a documentary once about the placebo effect: it is real. If it works, that's all that counts, surely.Imagine a regulator approving placebo treatment …If you fancy a healing week with Michelle, find out more at www.healingwithmichelledavies.com. Just don't tell the GOsC I sent you. And if you live abroad, don't worry: one of the reasons she has started offering these weeks is that she wants to travel more. I gather she has just been booked to go to Singapore.Here's the vid: If you enjoyed this, please tell a friend.Full disclosure: Michelle gave me a discount in exchange for helping her with above vid and for a review. I insisted the review be impartial, which it was, though if my experience had been negative, I probably wouldn't have published it.Until next time,DominicPS Here, again, is this week's commentary.

Es war mal wieder so weit, ein Ausfall in einem Rechenzentrum von Amazon (AWS) sorgte weltweit für Probleme: Das Jira-Ticket-System fiel aus, Fortnite und Epic Online Services gingen nicht, Roblox, Duolingo und noch einiges mehr, bis hin zu eher kuriosen Erscheinungen wie Smart Betten bzw. Matratzen, die sich nicht mehr steuern ließen und zum Beispiel bei aufrechter Rückenlehne verharrten oder mit dem Heizen nicht mehr aufhören wollten. Alles ist vernetzt und das ist nicht gut. Microsoft möchte den "KI"-Assistenten Copilot persönlicher machen: Mico ist ein kleiner Blob mit Mund und Augen und darf in die lange Reihe von unvergesslichen Microsoft-Assistenten wie Clippy bzw. Karl Klammer treten. Zurück zu Amazon: In den USA stattet der Mega-Konzern die Paketzusteller mit Smart Brillen aus, die u.a. bei der optimalen Route helfen sollen. Nebenbei auch ein großartiges Instrument, um noch mehr Daten zu sammeln und die Fahrer unter Kontrolle zu halten. Die Mixed-Reality-Brille Galaxy XR von Samsung ist jetzt in Südkorea für 1799 Dollar erhältlich. Einerseits viel Geld, andererseits klingt neben der Apple Vision Pro alles irgendwie günstiger. Eine Besonderheit ist die Kooperation von Samsung mit Google für die Plattform Android XR, dabei setzt Samsung auch auf die offene Schnittstelle OpenXR der Khronos Group. Hat also durchaus Potential. Zwar schon älter, aber dennoch einen Blick wert: Die Smartwatch Huawei D2 mit echter, also medizinisch verwertbarer Blutdruckmessung. Viel Spaß mit Folge 279!

She might even be able to cure one of the incurables. “Why not?”, I thought.A few days later, in a studio near Worcester, she placed her hands behind my head, went still for a moment, announced that my energy channels were “terrible - blocked, nought out of ten,” manipulated my neck and head for a bit, muttered to herself, sighed, told me off for swearing, got me to speak into a microphone, and then began “sending me frequencies.” I left feeling oddly lighter.So I went back.“I'm trying to have a lucid dream,” I told her. “But I'm not making much progress.”I explained the difference between a vivid dream, which is what it says on the tin, and a lucid dream, which is a dream in which you know you are having a dream, while you have the dream. Keener readers will remember to “get better at lucid dreaming” was one of my ambitions for 2025.“Oh,” she said. “I might be able to help with that.” And she went to work on my channels again.That night, I had nine dreams. Nine. Normally I'd be lucky to remember one or two. None were fully lucid, but still - progress.I went back again. “Can you help me with my ankle?” I've got flat feet and my ankles are very stiff as a result. I've broken my right ankle five times.She held it, paused, and began to cry. “There's so much pain here,” she said. “I can't fix it completely,” she declared, “but I can make it much better”.My ankles are one of the many banes of my life. I still play football, but I am incapable of “putting my laces through it” - that is shooting with my instep. I've not been able to shoot properly since I was in my early 20s. It hurts so much - my foot involuntarily winces moments before I strike, so my whole game is little passes with the inside of my foot. It's limiting. I might get one goal in a game of six-a-side, maybe two if I'm lucky. Usually I don't score.“When are you playing next?” she asked.“Tomorrow.”“I'll broadcast to you,” she said.The following night I scored six goals. SIX.“Have you been having shooting lessons?” one of the other players asked, both miffed and baffled.“What is your biggest goal in life? Michelle asked at another session.“To get Kisses on a Postcard made,” I said.I explained what it is. We came up with a mantra, which I recorded and she layered with one of her frequencies. I began playing it each morning while doing the gentle stretches, which she told me to do, in bed. Three weeks later, I closed the seed funding round I had up to then been struggling with - oversubscribed, no less. All coincidence, I'm sure. But Kisses on a Postcard is finally moving forward.Osteopath No MoreMichelle Davies was a local osteopath in Worcester who had been practising for 25 years. Among the many things she found she was good at treating were sinusitis, asthma, anxiety, depression, baby colic & reflux, sleep issues and infections. The patient testimonials on her website confirmed as much.However, in 2016 the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) got in touch. In case you are not familiar, GOsC is osteopathy's contribution to The Blob, the army of unaccountable regulators which runs, if that's the right word, Britain, answerable to no man. (If you think the government is in charge, you're deluded).In the great British tradition of unelected bureaucrat, GOsC has discovered the elixir of Blob: a toxic mix of arrogance, incompetence, paperwork and regulatory overreach, which will satisfactorily obstruct any attempt at progress. GOsC explained to Michelle that osteopathy can only cure 12 things, and these do not include the items which Michelle had found she could treat. Unless she removed the 75 patient testimonials, she would face a Fitness to Practise case. She did as she was told and removed the lot.“But I can and have treated these things,” she thought. “I've got 75 testimonials to prove it”.So, in 2021, she brought a claim against GOsC for damages, arguing that their actions had limited her professional scope and censored the public's voice. GOsC questioned her fitness to practise, demanded a psychiatric assessment and access to her medical notes. She refused and was struck off. She could no longer call herself an osteopath. In fact, she eventually got a criminal record for, checks notes, “impersonating an osteopath”. (Read her google reviews, if you want the patients' side of this)BTW I know nothing of GOsC and I haven't researched their side of the story, nor do I care to. They're regulators, so my default position is biased against, and unless they can demonstrably prove they warrant a better opinion, that will remain my position. So Michelle began marketing herself as the osteopath who was stuck off. Three years on she has a practice in Harley Street, charging several times her old rate.Note to any osteopaths reading this: get yourself struck off. It's great for business.If you live in a Third World country, such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The bullion dealer I recommend is The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.A Healing WeekI later discovered she also offers “healing weeks.” She comes to stay with you and your family for seven days and treats everyone daily. I thought we could all use a tune-up, and to my surprise when I proposed the idea, the Frisby household agreed: my eldest son (24), his heavily pregnant girlfriend (23), and my eldest daughter who lives nearby (22).Each of us had 60–90 minutes of treatment every day - osteopathic manipulation, cranial work, red and blue light therapy, terahertz wand, frequencies, castor oil packs, and more.My pregnant daughter-in-law was having problems with acid reflux and carpal tunnel numbness. Michelle got rid of the former in one session, the latter took a couple. My son's hips and ankles loosened up, and he started sleeping better. My daughter's pelvis, inflamed from a childhood incident involving a pillowcase and a staircase (news to me), finally began to settle, and she has reported improvements to her PCOS. I also sent Goat, my bassist and who makes many of my videos, for some treatment (in exchange for filming the video below). He's had a heavy stammer all his life, After three sessions, you can actually have a normal conversation with him. Meanwhile, I have become an even more astounding human being. We're all still flawed humans, but by the end of the week everyone felt lighter, happier, and healthier, and the house had a different atmosphere.Maybe I'm a sucker. Maybe it's all placebo. Does it matter? I narrated a documentary once about the placebo effect: it is real. If it works, that's all that counts, surely.Imagine a regulator approving placebo treatment …If you fancy a healing week with Michelle, find out more at www.healingwithmichelledavies.com. Just don't tell the GOsC I sent you. And if you live abroad, don't worry: one of the reasons she has started offering these weeks is that she wants to travel more. I gather she has just been booked to go to Singapore.Here's the vid: If you enjoyed this, please tell a friend.Full disclosure: Michelle gave me a discount in exchange for helping her with above vid and for a review. I insisted the review be impartial, which it was, though if my experience had been negative, I probably wouldn't have published it.Until next time,DominicPS Here, again, is this week's commentary.

The campiness and cheesiness of the 80s and & 90s are on full display in the two movies we saw this week: The Blob (1988) and Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). Both appear to be made on a shoestring budget, with unseasoned actors. And that is why we love them. Or at least some of us do. Let us know what you think?

Suppose They Gave a Coal Auction and Nobody Came. That story and more on H2O Radio's weekly news report. Headlines: For the first time ever, renewables have overtaken coal as the world's biggest source of electricity. Trump wants to resuscitate the fossil fuel. Data centers are starting to use PFAS gas, worrying scientists about a new source of harmful “forever chemicals.” “The Blob” and La Niña have never occurred simultaneously—until now. What does that mean for this winter's weather?

Its a perfect small town america b-movie and has all the fun tropes you'd expect while also adding some twists and turns to them.

Picking up right where Part 1 left off, Tom Bilyeu and Mike Benz dive even deeper into the shadowy world of influence operations, modern censorship, and information warfare. In this second half, Benz unravels how the censorship-industrial complex formed, the role of AI and social media in real-time narrative control, and the profound consequences of Elon Musk's purchase of X (Twitter) on global discourse and populist uprisings. Tom presses Mike on the “why” behind the intense manipulation of platforms, revealing that the ability to shape language and thought at scale isn't a partisan game—it's about preserving the interests of entrenched stakeholders across the globe. As global populist movements surge and increasingly polarized narratives grip the world—from America to Germany, the UK, and beyond—Tom and Mike scrutinize the connective tissue animating these phenomena. They explore how radical activists are intentionally seeded and activated by NGOs for regime change; what happens when the playbook is turned inward; and how collateral damage is created when hearts and minds are exploited with little regard for social unity. Mike makes the case for radical transparency as the antidote to soft power abuse, arguing that America can remain formidable on the world stage without turning its own institutions into black boxes. If you want to understand why our world feels so unstable—and what it might take to reform it—this is the conversation you cannot miss.

This next guest has certainly has made a name for himself, as he has done many things. He has also evolved over the years as far as what he thought “great work” is, as we discuss there is more than just what you do on the project you work on (whether be theatre, TV show or movie). He is known for his role on the 1988 remake of “The Blob” but most people remember him as Alan Frog (one of the two vampire-hunting brothers) alongside Corey Feldman in The Lost Boys!

We just watched The Blob (1958), and wow—this flick is pure drive-in gold. Steve McQueen leads a cast of “teenagers” who could've all passed for seniors at a high school reunion, but it only adds to the fun! The special effects are goofy, the dialog is retro gold, and every minute is a love letter to low-budget sci-fi. Whether it's the Blob rolling over townsfolk or adults pretending to be rebellious kids, this movie is a B-movie masterpiece that begs to be seen with a rowdy crowd at the drive-in.You know the routine—sound off with your favorite cheesy moments or lines, and let's see who can top our ‘oldest teen' jokes!
Terror has no shape, but it does have a podcast!! That's right, we're returning to Arborville, CA, where Friday nights mean football, flirting, and a hungry mass of space gelatin looking to slurp all the meat it can off the bone in the fantastic 1988 remake of THE BLOB!! Here to help us make sense of all the space madness is director Colin Karwchuk!! [THE JESTER 2 is in theaters for special screenings Sept 15th and 16th via Fathom Events.] We break it all down, including The Blob's origin story, why the films are plagued by old teens, mind-bending special make-up effects, worship at the altar of Shawnee Smith, the film's secret King-coded story, and Frank Darabont and Chuck Russell's main character problems. All this, plus talking ribbing pleasure, bouncy theme songs, bad dates, concussion protocols, worse wigs, stealth leads, the dangers of recycling, dangerous nostalgia, puffy shirts, Craig Wasson dissing, and a very gelatinous edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!
