This week, the boys are joined by. Regs! Tommy's been brushing up on L.A. Confidential (because noir never dies), DL's still swimming with The Sopranos (he's all in on gabagool culture).

Arnold Schwarzenegger in a yellow jumpsuit, a murderous game show, and more terrible puns than should be legal – this week we're diving into The Running Man (1987).Set in the far-flung future of… 2017, the film drops Arnie into a fascist police state where the government keeps the masses quiet with a wildly popular TV bloodsport. Framed as the “Butcher of Bakersfield,” helicopter pilot Ben Richards is forced onto The Running Man, a gladiatorial game show hosted by the gloriously slimy Damon Killian. Contestants are hunted by cartoonishly lethal “Stalkers” – Subzero, Buzzsaw, Dynamo, Fireball and Captain Freedom – while the state-run network lies, edits, and fakes everything to keep the ratings high.We break down:The dystopia that arrived on time: State propaganda, rigged media, and how close this feels to modern reality TV and news spin.Arnie at full one-liner power: From exploding collars to chainsaw crotch kills, we go through the kills, the quips, and which puns are genuinely elite and which are plain zero.The Stalkers as 80s boss fights: Subzero's razor-wire demise, Buzzsaw's split decision, Dynamo's opera-singing sex pest energy, and Fireball's jet-pack nonsense.Killian and the cult of TV personalities: Why Richard Dawson nails the smarmy game-show host, and how the film weaponises studio audiences and phone-in contests.From Stephen King to Saturday-night carnage: How this loose adaptation trashes the bleak Richard Bachman novel, leans into gaudy satire, and still manages to feel weirdly ahead of its time with doctored footage and media manipulation.If you grew up on 80s action, misremember this as a Verhoeven movie, or just want to hear three dads argue over whether this is genius satire or glorious trash, this one's for you.Hit play to hear us revisit exploding neck collars, terrible future fashion, and why, for all its flaws, The Running Man is still an easy strong recommend.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

The Compendium Podcast: An Assembly of Fascinating and Intriguing Things
In this episode of The Compendium, we revisit Space Cadets: How A British Reality Show Convinced Contestants They Were In Space. In 2005, Channel 4 and Endemol staged the most ambitious TV hoax in British history, tricking contestants into believing they had been launched into orbit. Hosted by Johnny Vaughan, the show combined fake cosmonaut training, a shuttle simulator, and an elaborate Ipswich “Russian base” to sell the illusion. Nearly twenty years later, we unpack how Space Cadets blurred entertainment and deception, why it remains reality TV's strangest moment, and how contestants truly believed they were in space. We give you just the Compendium, but if you want more, here are our resources: Space Cadets (2005) – Wikipedia Space Cadets TV Series - Youtube Ipswich, we have a problem - The Guardian Capricorn One (1978) – by Peter Hyams Host & Show Info Hosts: Kyle Risi & Adam Cox About: Kyle and Adam are more than just your hosts, they're your close friends sharing intriguing stories from tales from the darker corners of true crime, the annals of your forgotten history books, and the who's who of incredible people.

You may have seen the recent three-part Netflix documentary Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser. The series revisits the hit show The Biggest Loser, which framed weight loss as a competitive transformation journey—often emphasizing dramatic physical change over sustainable health. The documentary dives into the tension between creating captivating television and protecting the wellbeing of participants.In today's episode, we share our reflections on the series, our critiques of weight loss competitions, and why we believe shows like this perpetuate fat stigma. We'll also talk about constructive, compassionate alternatives for achieving lifelong health habits (hint: it's about much more than pounds lost). If you're a regular listener, you won't be surprised when we circle back to the importance of supportive, sustainable health journeys.We've heard many people say, “I need someone to be the food police or screaming in my face for me to lose weight.” If you've ever felt that way, we invite you to listen in—we're challenging that belief and offering a more empowering path forward.Did you watch The Biggest Loser or the Netflix documentary Fit for TV? We'd love to hear what you think. Was it fair? Was it ethical? Should there be safeguards for participants in shows like this?

Contestants of a reality show titled "The Apocalypse" start filming and find their shooting location is occupied by a family of inbred cannibals who want nothing more than to kill and eat them.Wrong Turn 2: Dead End is the unlikely finale of Sequel September 2025, but it's the follow-up to one of our favorite horror movies growing up and is a fun movie with a ton of crazy kills. The reality show element is ridiculous, but provides an interesting setting as it leaves all the contestants vulnerable to an unforeseen horror in the woods of West Virginia. While not as good as the first, this movie is a lot of fun, and doesn't shy away from the blood and gore, and is overall gross throughout. It's also always entertaining to see Henry Rollins play a badass who takes the fight back to the deformed inbred cannibals.

Guest Gary Levingston shares how a chance encounter at Southwest Church led to casting for the senior-edition dating franchise, the sequestered Malibu mansion experience, and the unexpected brotherhood that formed among contestants on The Golden Bachelor, and subsequently on Bachelor In Paradise. Levingston opens up about the stress of rose ceremonies (and expert-level packing), navigating sudden notoriety—including fan encounters at his doorstep—and keeping perspective thanks to lessons from his godmother, Tina Turner. Beyond TV, he's channeling his platform into purpose: mental-health advocacy as a senior advisor with Talkspace, a lighthearted fashion partnership with Tommy Bahama, and service to kids in the Coachella Valley. He also spotlights his documentary on his uncle, 1950s singer-songwriter Jesse Belvin, and dreams of a feature film—maybe with Bruno Mars in the lead. Heart, humor, faith, and community all show up big in this conversation.Takeaways:A casting director discovered him while he was greeting at church.Contestants were sequestered near the Malibu mansion—no phones, lots of bonding.The “golden” cast rooted for one another over rivalry.Rose ceremonies were nerve-racking—bags packed every time, just in case.Sudden fame felt surreal (press pings, fan rose at his door).Godmother Tina Turner taught privacy, poise, and inner strength.Now a Talkspace senior advisor, advocating mental health for older adults.Produces a Jesse Belvin documentary; hopes for a Bruno Mars-led feature.#BigConversationsLittleBarPodcast #PatrickEvans #RandyFlorence #SkipsLittleBar #MutualBroadcastingSystem #CoachellaValleyResidents #SkipPaige #GaryLevingston #GoldenBachelorette #BachelorInParadise #TinaTurner #MentalHealth #Talkspace #TommyBahama #JesseBelvin #BrunoMars #MalibuMansion #ChurchToCasting #PalmDesert #CommunityImpact

Remember The Biggest Loser? I was obsessed. That show was appointment TV if there ever was such a thing!That show was everywhere in the 2000s—17 (!!) seasons of extreme workouts, starvation diets, and public weigh-ins packaged as “inspiration.”Netflix just released a three-part documentary about it. And while it covered some drama behind the scenes, I was more shocked about what it didn't cover:The food. Contestants were eating as little as 800 calories a day—yet the show framed it as “healthy” and barely glossed over it.The fallout. What did that kind of treatment do to contestants' self-worth, body image, and relationship with food? (Spoiler: the doc barely touched it.)The viewers. Millions of us—including me—were glued to it every week. What did that obsession do to us culturally? And what echoes of it are still shaping diet culture today?I share what I think the documentary missed, my own (kinda shocking) memories of being obsessed with the show, and the ripple effects we're still living with.Because the real story isn't just about a TV show. It's about the way we're taught to believe weight loss equals happiness—and how that belief is still sold to us in new packaging today (including by this documentary).

In episode 294 of Fitness & Sushi, we pull back the curtain on one of diet culture's most damaging exports: The Biggest Loser. What looked like “just TV” was actually cultural programming that rewired a generation of women to believe their worth was tied to shrinking their bodies. Contestants were pushed past the point of safety, trainers used shame and abuse as “motivation,” and viewers absorbed it all as truth. The fallout? Broken metabolisms, broken trust in our bodies, and decades of food and body obsession. In this episode — Fit for TV: How The Biggest Loser Broke Us — and How We Heal — you'll learn…
