This week I'm joined by author and documentary filmmaker Grant McPhee, who directed three amazing films about the Scottish underground music scenes (Big Gold Dream, The Glasgow School, Teenage Superstars). We discuss the differences between writing his book Postcards From Scotland and making these films, the UK press and their relationships with Scottish bands, the turmoil at the early Jesus & Mary Chain shows, both Postcard & Fast Product Records influencing Factory & Rough Trade records, how The Bay City Rollers were a massive influence on the early indie music scene, the genesis and integrity of Teenage Fanclub, early Scottish post-punk bands Josef K and Scars, choosing Kim Deal of The Breeders & Robert Foster of The Go-Betweens to narrate the films, the stress of making documentaries, the supportiveness of the Scottish music scenes, The Vaselines & Captain America being massive influences on (and friends) of Nirvana, BMX Bandits, Orange Juice and Soup Dragons changing their sounds, Stephen Pastel's ears getting sunburned after a haircut and more!So let's start a musical riot in under 12 minutes on this week's revolutions per movie!GRANT McPHEE:https://grantmcpheedirector.com/https://omnibuspress.com/products/postcards-from-scotland-scottish-independent-music-1983-1995ALL THREE FILMS ARE STREAMING ONLINEREVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE:Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film or music videos to discuss.

Is a MacBook Pro waterproof? One of us finds out the hard way, live on the show. The trio is back! Mostly. We settle the great debates of our time: is it headphone or headphones? Scissor or scissors? Verse or versus? Forget rock, paper, scissors; it's all about bunny, carrot, gun now. Thumbs Up Corner is back. A very special listener is revealed, and the Arcadia June trophies are ready to ship!

This week, George Perez takes a seat in The Wayback! ("George Perez Stories" podcast). In this episode, George takes us back to what is was like growing up in Los Angeles in the 1980s as the 2nd youngest of 15 kids! George gets nostalgic about sneaking out, running the block with his crew "The BMX Bandits", and playing their favorite neighborhood game "ditch 'em." Ryan and George then take a deep dive on what was a staple for many kids in the 80s: Nintendo tournaments. They reminisce about Contra, Duck Hunt, Ice Hockey, Madden, and the all-time classic, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! Lastly, Ryan and George take us back to their high school days to relive some of the successes and failures (mostly failures) of their early female pursuits.

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana take trip down under and discuss the 1984 heist (?) movie BMX Bandits. Nicole Kidman is in this one, and that is it for the cast. A bunch of kids ride their bikes around and the bad guys can't get out of their own way as the bumble around after the kids. Of course, these kids do bike downhill A LOT. Is Sydney built on the side of a mountain? We are in the dog days of summer here, folks. Halloween is right around the corner though, and we will have some bangers planned when that rolls around. Just suck it up and deal with it until then. At least we make light of a lame situation. Enjoy the podcast.
PJ? Goose? Powderpuff? Capn' Pop? The Corndog? That's BMX talk! Which is exactly what we're talking about this week in our latest movie review.

Adjacent to the Australian New Wave movement of the 70's and 80's was a period of exploitation filmmaking focused on explosions, fast cars, and gonzo genre flicks with an Ozzie flair. With countless films available this era of filmmaking can be a little daunting to dive into, so we're giving you an entry point. Join Alexei as he brings you into the wicked world of the films of Brian Trenchard-Smith. We journey through his films The Man From Hong Kong, Turkey Shoot, BMX Bandits, Dead End Drive-In and even his prizewinning government PSA film combatting cigarette-fueled hospital fires.

Not letting an ocean keep them apart even while vacationing, the bois manage to cobble together an episode like these girls managed to cobble together a girl group challenge! Themed after the famous (citation needed) Australian extreme sports flick The BMX Bandits, our top six girls have to sing, dance, and ride bikes to some of the worst music since BDE. Will they ride into the sunset or crash and burn? Answer: Both! And that's what makes for good TV! Which is still better TV than the reads from this mini-challenge. Will someone get that Ben fellow Joe's number? Will there be singing? Will there be audio issues? Well, yes to that last one, but only by downloading and listening now can YOU find out if the bois got the stuff to take off their training wheels and start riding motocross. Also, Motocrossdressing. Why wasn't that pun used this episode?!
Inspired by the campy 80s film BMX Bandits, the queens write original lyrics, sing and dance as two rival girl groups. Episode by episode we fall more and more in love with our queens!

This week on S&A we are on part two of our Aussie Series. Lindsay is joined by Carmelita Valdez McKoy for a full throttle Double of Brian Trenchard-Smith's BMX Bandits (1983) & George Miller's Road Warrior (1981).
There are movies and then there are career changing movies. Drew Barrymore can thank a loveable three foot tall extra terrestrial for putting her on the map. Sean Penn better add Mr. Hand to his holiday cards, because Fast Time At Ridgemont High was his coming out party. Michael Keating might be "Batman" but without Nigh Shift he might of ended up being Mr. Freeze. Nicolas Cage is basking in the moment, but owes it all to Valley Girl...for sure! And before Nicole Kidman was anything, she was a fifteen year old Aussie in the 80s classic, BMX Bandits. Despite all these examples there is one movie I left off that is solely responsible for launching the career of Hollywood's favorite actor. Had it not been for a sweet silly film about a mermaid in New York, Tom Hanks would be nothing more than a Bosom Buddy instead of the A-List star we know today. Today on Buzzn The Tower we'll take a deep dive into the ocean and talk about the career changing Ron Howard film, Splash. I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always the Freddie to my Allen, Max Sanders. And with that...
Chip and Jeff discuss the grunge-era romantic comedy “Singles.” They also discuss Todd Glass, beekeeper conventions, baseball caps, Bridget Fonda, Matt Dillon, Cameron Crowe, allergy season, Broad Street Run, Philadelphia Trail Marathon, endoscopies, BMX Bandits, private doctors, Samiam, Chip's Favorite Grunge Bands, “The Daytrippers,” Tim Burton, 90s technology and magazines, Melanie Griffith's lions, Alfred Hitchcock movies, Zach Galifianakis appreciation, Need a Good Laugh Tips, and much more goodness.
We head back to the 80s to look at one of Nicole Kidman's early films, BMX Bandits.

After watching BMX Bandits and talking with filmmaker Brian Trenchard-Smith, it only makes sense to look at his other "kids on bikes" movie, The Quest (aka Frog Dreaming, aka Go Kids!). While this is a movie Drew grew up loving, we weren't exactly sure it fit into our current theme, but this was too good an opportunity to discuss it to pass by. Is it a "kids on bikes" movie? How do you deal with a protagonist that needs no real help? And how do you look past some of the movie's more problematic elements? We talk about all of that and more with our deep dive into The Quest. What approach would you use to run a Frog Dreaming inspired session? How would you deal with an overpoweed protagonist like Cody? Let us know what inspiration this film has given you. Interact with the show on Instagram and Twitter or email us at theneversaydiepodcast@gmail.com.

It's Inter-MISSION time! Drew and Rafe (finally) follow up their conversation about BMX Bandits with ideas they might have missed the first time around, mostly involving how talking with filmmaker Brian Trenchard-Smith impacted their appreciation of the film. They discuss the highly successful Kids on Bikes Second Edition Kickstarter, which they participated in both as playtesters and as backers. Then, they use the 2nd edition information to trope the new characters they've picked in the draft. Finally, they chat about Kickstarters that have come and gone in the time that the show was on break, discuss the future goals for the podcast (which you can chime in on) and reveal the movie they'll be talking about for our next episode.

You know, there's something very important that we need to do as soon as possible. F...ilmshake. Right before we ring in 2023, we're ringing every masked ounce out of Stanley Kubrick's 1999 swansong, Eyes Wide Shut. No dream is ever just a dream, but is this movie a masterpiece, or is every touch of perceived meticulous genius just a meticulous aesthetic choice made solely for the sake of aesthetics? Also, we're talking 1993's BMX Bandits, where a teenaged Nicole Kidman rides around with some bicycle blokes to fight crime.

We've been gone for a while but we're making our way back into the Kids on Bikes spotlight, returning with a long overdue interview with Brian Trenchard-Smith, the director of our most recent movie (BMX Bandits) and another Kids on Bikes film we're sure to discuss, The Quest (aka Frog Dreaming). We talk with Mr. Trenchard-Smith about the making of both of those films, his book Adventures in the B Movie Trade, his non-Kids on Bikes movies, B-movies in general, and a whole lot more. We'll be back in two weeks with our proper BMX Bandits Intermission, where we'll also discuss the future plans for the show and the incredibly successful Kickstarter campaign for Kids on Bikes 2nd Edition.

In this episode, we sit down with one of the most interesting and influential people in the Australian film industry, Brian Trenchard-Smith.Brian is a renowned film and television director with over 50 years of experience in the industry. He has directed many projects, from action movies and thrillers to comedies and dramas. Some of his notable works include "The Man from Hong Kong," "BMX Bandits," "Turkey Shoot," and "Stunt Rock," to name just a few.Unfortunately, we experienced some technical issues during the interview, and we could only present the latter half of our conversation. Despite the challenges, I had a fascinating and enlightening discussion with Brian, who shared insights into his career and the film industry. We hope you enjoy this glimpse into the mind of a talented and innovative filmmaker.I am grateful to Brian for his willingness to work with me through the technical difficulties we encountered while recording.Thank you, Brian, for your time and patience.Brian's latest book, "Adventures in the B Movie Trade" is a great read and a fantastic resource for aspiring filmmakers.

In Part Two, concludes our exploration of the enigma that is Duglas T. Stewart and the work of BMX Bandits. We continue to look at the stories behind some of the band's key tracks from the recent past, and the incredible artists that collaborate on them, to bring them to life. One such collaboration that is the stuff of cult legend is their various projects working with Big Star's, Alex Chilton. Chilton was a frequent visitor to the Glasgow, and he was a big influence on the Scottish music scene as a result. Another outstanding collaboration was the work he produced with 1960's cult artist Nick Garrie, who's amazing original body of work would have potentially remained buried in obscurity without Duglas bring it back to mainstream prominence. We come full circle on his amazing body of work by discussing his latest project, a film score for a soon to be released film, ‘Dreaded Light”.
Since 1985, Glaswegian Duglas T. Stewart has been the leader and chief songwriter of BMX Bandits, who The Guardian called “Britain's ultimate cult group”. Kurt Cobain famously said “If I could be in any other band, it would be BMX Bandits”. BMX Bandits have released 16 albums internationally, and albums that BMX Bandits made in 1989, 1991, 1993 and 2006 have also been re-released on vinyl over the last few years. Duglas has collaborated with music legends including Dan Penn, Chip Taylor, Alex Chilton and Kim Fowley. Duglas is also very experienced in the world of broadcasting, having been a producer, A.P. and music consultant on BBC television output including The Beat Room, Top of the Pops Saturday, Comedy Connections and T in the Park. In 2013 and 2014 co-wrote and played one of the leads in the Tartan Features film Wigilia. The film was screened at festivals across the U.K., in the U.S.A. and Poland. Duglas recently completed his first movie score, co-written with fellow Bandit Andrew Pattie, for the forthcoming psychological chiller Dreaded Light. Duglas and BMX Bandits are subjects of the acclaimed documentary features Teenage Superstars and Serious Drugs. In Part One of this Episode, we talk to Duglas about his earliest memories of music. We explore the origins of the BMX Bandits ‘sound' and how the BMX Family came together. It's fair to say that Duglas has an insatiable appetite for music, particularly for sharing and discovering new music. We discuss Duglas' notion that music is its own international ‘language' that doesn't need words, and how the voice can be an instrument in it's own right. We also take a deep dive into some of the detail, background and stories that shape key BMX Bandit's tracks. This fascinating look into the incredibly diverse, creative world of Duglas T Stewart, will conclude in Part Two. This podcast is produced by Urbanista Magazine

Sorry for the delay in between episodes, but we're back with what is probably our most divisive movie to date: BMX Bandits. One of us likes the movie and one of us is a Grumpy Sour McGrumpy-pants about it. Who is on what side? Make sure you listen to find out! We talk about the movie, the strange debut of Nicole Kidman, and other BMX/skateboarding flicks of the era. What approach would you use to run a BMX Bandits inspired session? What kinds of locations would you let your group terrorize? What kind of McGuffin ideas can you come up with? Let us know what inspiration this film has given you.

Who likes to rock the party, you ask? Why, that's a good question...because WE just so happen to like to rock the party! Get ready for the wildest classic alternative rager ever, going down RIGHT NOW at Club O3L. Everyone is invited (except for YOU, Rob Reiner!). It's a DJ throwdown this week, as DJ B-Var ("Gnawing the logs of funk, baby!") squares off against DJ Greggy P ("Take a journey down the Greggy P hole"). This is one party you don't want to miss! Oh, and there may be leather and foam involved... This week's O3L Spotlight is on Goliath, a young singer/songwriter from Glasgow who just released his lovely, poignant and vulnerable new single "Everybody Cries." It is a song, in his words "about loss, growth and acceptance." It recently attracted praise by the likes of Duglas T. Stewart from BMX Bandits and Fran Healy from Travis, and you can add O3L to the growing list of Goliath's supporters.

For this episode I am joined by award winning film director Grant McPhee.Amongst Grant's films are Big Gold Dream, which tells the story of FAST Product and Postcard Records, two of Scotland's most loved independent record labels and Teenage Superstars the story of what happened next in the uncompromising world of Scottish indie music, featuring music and interviews from the likes of The Vaselines, BMX Bandits, Primal Scream and Teenage Fanclub.Grant heads back to 1996 to consider his musical journey as a fan from collecting 60s pop singles growing up in Fife to discovering Indie as a student in Edinburgh. Along the way, Grant shares stories of summer Holiday viewing of The Monkees on TV, to the Chart Show defining what Indie was through to the heady days of student life and memories of some defining soundtrack moments including, of course 96's iconic Trainspotting.We also explore the whole concept of retrospective curation, as viewed in the NOW Millennium series. How does the music of 1996 stand up 25 years later? Are these the hits we remember or does the shifting period of time and culture reshape our memories? And how would a NOW 1996 Yearbook look now? Which hits still make the cut, musically and culturally?All of this and much more, including memories of The Associates, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Smash Hits Poll Winners Party, BBE (!)Choose Life, Choose NOW, Choose 1996!

Django Nudo and Smut Peddler are back after a short break. This week they attended the Everyman Cult Tuesday (and Friday) screenings with Christina Lindberg introducing "Anita - Swedish Nymphet" (1973). On 22 November there will be a Calvin Floyd double bill at Stockholm's Bio Aspen. We thank our Mystery Santa and give a preview of the Badvent calendar that will have 24 films released in December, one per day, as we count down the 24 days of Cultmast. From our partners Echelon Studios we have a trio of fun films, including Scandinavia's only kaiju film (make that Europe's only?) in the giant lizard form of "Reptilicus" (1961). The Danish-American co-production was made in two versions, of which you can watch the re-edited American version on Cultpix. Lizard tail found in Lapland mine grows in gigantic lizard rampaging through downtown Copenhagen - with songs! "BMX Bandits" (1983) is not just Nicole Kidman's acting debut (she was just 16), but also helped solidify BMX bikes as a staple of 80s nostalgia films. There is a straight line from "Goonies" to "Stranger Things" that goes via this kids caper of foiling bank robbers and doing trick rides on cool bikes through Sydney. Then there is the Swords & Planets sub-genre of "Gor" (1987), that combines the rampent sexism of the original novels with some heavy weight acting talent: Jack Palance as Xenos (born Volodymyr Ivanovytch Palahniuk!), Oliver Reed as Sarm and Arnold Vosloo (who was the mummy in The Mummy). Interplanetary nonsense with leather bikinis - no less 80-s than BMX bikes. While the poster is the stand-out feature of "The Astounding She-Monster" (1958), there is plenty else to like about this feature that Ed Wood Jr. was un-official consultant to. The budget was tigheter than Shirley Kilpatrick's alien leotard, which ripped on the first of the four days of shooting. As there was no budget to repair it, she had to walk backwards to exit a scene. Shame also that they didn't keep the original title "Naked Invader", which was ditched to appease the censors. Japan's first celluloid superhero Starman (Sūpā Jaiantsu, literally translated as "Super Giants") is a combination of George Reeve's "Superman" TV show and Doctor Who, as the alien from Planet Emerald sent to help Earth fight of space monsters in various forms. Edited together from TV shows into four feature films, they are cult classics that screened at the Klubb Super 8/Something Weird festival in Stockholm. Start with "Attack From Space" (1965) and be sure that "Invaders from Space" (1966) is the last one you watch as it is also the best one. Since we started with a kaiju film it is only right to end with one as well, as "Destroy All Planets" (1968), aka Gamera vs. Outer Space monster Viras, pitches giant flying turtle monster Gamera battling Viras with the help of some plucky boy scouts. But what we really want to know is who would win in a battle between Reptilicus vs Gamera or Starman vs the Astounding She Creature? And why not see BMX Bandits taking on the evil armies of Gor? That would have made for truly interesting films. Or, wait, isn't that what "Turbo Kid" (2015) was?

We celebrate a milestone today with first ever Scottish guest of the pod. Duglas T Stewart, founder and frontman of indie legends BMX Bandits, joins me to discuss the offbeat magic and beautiful naive emotion of Beach Boys 'Love You', the band's bizarre and compelling 1977 'comeback' album, which saw Brian Wilson and a host of wonky synthesisers create a sonic world completely different to the perfectionism of Pet Sounds. We talk about how this record showcases Brian Wilson the lyricist, the simple sentiment of tune like 'Solar System', why the unfiltered emotion of the Beach Boys is more authentic than many modern overwrought overearnest bands, the hidden sadness in 'Johnny Carson', Duglas's conversations with Brian Wilson about the record, the BMX Bandits songs most inspired by the album, Big Star's Alex Chilton's love for the record and which Scottish movie would make the best name for an Australian band. My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album's influence on their own music. Jeremy Dylan is a filmmaker, journalist and photographer from Sydney, Australia who has worked in the music industry since 2007. He directed the the feature music documentary Jim Lauderdale: The King of Broken Hearts (out now!) and the feature film Benjamin Sniddlegrass and the Cauldron of Penguins, in addition to many commercials and music videos.
