Easter falls on 4/20 this year so we've got HIPPY JESUS and SPACE JESUS with JESUS CHRIST SUPER STAR (1973) and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL (1951). We've got Hippy Jesus screaming in the desert and Space Jesus getting shot at by jittery soldiers in Cold War Washington D.C. All this plus Carl Anderson delivering the performance of a lifetime as Judas Iscariot and GORT, the giant silver robot, melting tanks and cannons. This episode has Philena singing "I Don't Know How to Love Him" and Bob saying "Gort Klaatu Barada Nikto" to make her stop. What's the Buzz? We are buzzed. Before we get into the High Holiday weed pairings, Bob reviews FREAKY TALES, a movie that's hopefully still playing somewhere, because you should get really high and see it. Cory fills us in on his big move to Arkansas where he has found a wonderland of storied fast food chains that we do not have in California, Philena fills us in on the new build your own icecream sandwich joint in the Valley, and Bob recounts playing for a dive bar filled with Nazi skinheads with the Disneyland fireworks going off in the distance. And if that wasn't enough, we are joined by Sage, who has thoughts on JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR. Come back in May for The PhilenApocalypse III in Super 3D with TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! JULIE NEWMAR (1995) and HURRICANE BIANCA (2016). Subscribe on your favorite podcast app so you don't miss it.

Cannabis comic Ngaio Bealum is back and we are livin' the dream with a pair of movies about strivers who live their dreams, and their dreams are really friggin' weird. First, Nobuko Miyamoto is a single mom with dreams of making the greatest ramen in all of Japan and Tsutomu Yamazaki is the cowboy trucker who is going help her achieve her dream in TAMPOPO, a "ramen western" from director Juzo Itami in 1985. This movie is filled with surreal tangents, tasty-looking food and a fair amount of freaky sex! Describing the plot does not do it justice. It's also hilarious. One of Ngaio's all-time favorites, you'll definitely want the strain--and ramen--recommendations for this one. And then Don Knotts turns into a fish AND fights the Nazis in THE INCREDIBLE MR. LIMPET, a half-animated, half-live-action cross between "The Little Mermaid" and "Hogan's Heroes" from Warner Bros. "Why does Captain America have to be a fish," Ngaio asks, and there really isn't an explanation except that Don Knotts has "fish rizz" according to Philena. So glad Greg could make it for this one so he could talk about classic animators Bill Tytla and Robert McKimson who shaped the amazing cartoon sequences of this baffling maritime classic. We go a little long in the opening segment where we discuss the "fan" reaction to the new-look Shrek, the upcoming release of the animated THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP with Porky Pig and Daffy Duck, and Philena's culty new job + Bob finally saw THE SUBSTANCE! Next month: EASTER 420 with JESUS CHRIST SUPER STAR (Hippy Jesus) and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL (Space Jesus). Subscribe so you don't miss it.

Pro-wrestling really had a chokehold on our imaginations in the ‘90s. Whether our brains were being bodyslammed by WWF (WWE) or beat down by WCW, we loved every choreographed minute of the glammy, absurd high drama. Perhaps the most ‘90s of all wrestling shows of that time was the punk rock DIY version, Incredibly Strange Wrestling, which got its start in San Francisco in 1995 and then toured the world. Imagine an even more unhinged take on pro-wrestling mixed with the spirit (and sometimes masks) of Luche Libre and in-your-face Jackass-style antics. Add a few punk bands and a lot of tortillas flying around the audience, and you have some incredibly strange wrestling. Joining Audra and Raymond is the author, podcast host, and former Incredibly Strange wrestler, Bob Calhoun, who worked under the moniker Count Dante. Bob regales us with tales of the phenomenon, plus discusses some of the best moments of ‘90s wrestling in general. We even read some listener mail on the topic. Join Retrophilia on Instagram and Facebook, and share your memories too. And check out Bob's podcast, Old Movies For Young Stoners!
Bret Berg from the Museum of Home Video and the American Genre Film Archive joins us and he has chosen a pair of made for TV movies ranging from 70s horror to 1990s ripped-from-the-headlines true crime. Our first feature is GARGOYLES (1972) one of the many TV terrors that scarred Gen-Xer childhoods. Cornel Wilde and Jennifer Salt are a father-daughter team of occult researchers who discover a race of living gargoyles in the caves of New Mexico. Former SF 49er and LA Ram Bernie Casey in full-body Sam Winston make-up effects plays the winged-stuff of nightmares as the Gargoyles' leader + Scott Glenn as a young dirt bike punk! Then, Kellie Martin is an ambitious nerd girl who murders mean girl Tori Spelling in DEATH OF A CHEERLEADER aka A FRIEND TO DIE FOR, the most watched TV movie of 1994, if Wikipedia is to be believed. The film is based on the true story of 15-year old Kirsten Costas who was stabbed to death by a classmate, Bernadette Protti, on June 23, 1984. While this movie is a departure from what we'd usually program on OMFYS, something about it dredged up Cory's memories of being accused of horrible animal mutilations because he was the only goth kid at his high school, and Bob found parallels to a murder near San Francisco that his mom was briefly suspected of. This movie may have been even more traumatizing than GARGOYLES! In the opening segment, Bob, Bret and Cory talk about other made-for-TV horror movies, and the inspiration behind The Museum of Home Video, his weekly "found-footage variety show for stoners, seekers, archivists and drinkers." Bob brings up The California Music Channel, the San Francisco Bay Area's public access answer to MTV, which is something he hasn't thought about since the 80s. Cory counters with The Box, Los Angeles' music video request show. Is there a hyperlocal Chicago or Milwaukee version of MTV? We want to know! Be sure to check out Bret Berg's weekly live stream of media weirdness Tuesday nights at 7:30 pm PST at www.museumofhomevideo.com Thanks Bret.

GUEST OVERVIEW: Born in Waukegan, Illinois, Gretchen doesn't call any one place home. She's moved around from Illinois, to Germany, Wisconsin, Tennessee and Arizona. The daughter of a nuclear engineer and a homemaker, Gretchen studied travel and tourism at Lamson Business College in Arizona. Like any well-traveled and adventurous woman, Gretchen has held a motley of jobs ranging from working at “The Funny Firm” comedy club in Chicago, to renting out cars, to booking psychics on radio stations in Phoenix. It was in the latter job where she was set up on a blind date with future husband, Danny Bonaduce who was working at the local radio station, Power 92 KKFR. Gretchen is a devoted mother to their two children, Countess Isabella and Count Dante. Gretchen has two brothers, Kurt and Derek and is currently working on an independent film about Derek's experience in Iraq and her Uncle's WWII experience as well as her own book about her life and struggles with her former self.
Can a human being be killed with one well-timed blow? Without question, yes. But is the secret to this fighting style held by ancient Chinese monks, or a flamboyant guy named Count Dante who advertises in the back of comic books? We look at real situations where one punch (or slap, or chiropractic adjustment) can kill a person, either immediately or after a delay. Then we bring in author, paramedic and martial artist Peter Huston to discuss the legend of Dim Mak and how propaganda, marketing, Chinese culture, the allure of the ancient, Kung Fu movies and suburban American kids fit into the creation of this idea.
Gør jer klar til Karatekrigen 2.0! John Keehan havde en ydmyg ambition om at revolutionere den amerikanske karate-verden. I stedet endte han som en form for kampsportens Darth Vader, da han omdøbte sig selv til Count Dante og gik over til the dark side. Sensei Dantes karate handlede nemlig knapt så meget om sundhed og sport - og mere om bare at rundsmadre alle. Så da konkurrerende skoler startede op, betød det krig. En krig der endte med en solid gang "Fatality!" Kom med på eksplosiv tur gennem karatens tidlige år, hvor Chicagos gader mindede om scener fra Street Fighter og Mortal Kombat. Finish Him!

We're continuing Rothrockuary with the baffling and not even a little bit endearing saga of Honor and Glory. PS - although this movie is about two sisters, their names are not "Honor" and "Glory."Host segments: Devori's strange jealousy; just call her Chesty; Jeff and Joe's weird stuff; Count Dante's Dojo; the green bean rules of engagement; a lot of Depp hair gel.

San Francisco movie and media critic Pam Grady joins us and she finally brings Westerns into OMFYS with ZACHARIAH (1971), a homoerotic oater starring John Rubenstein and a very young Don Johnson as star-crossed gunslingers who just can't quit each other on their road to hippy-dippy enlightenment. Billed as "The First Electric Western," Country Joe & the Fish, the James Gang and the New York Rock Ensemble show up with their late-1960s Gibson guitars and Fender stacks even though everything else about the movie takes place in the 19th Century. John Coltrane drummer Elvin Jones nearly steals the show by shooting a dude and then playing a kick-ass drum solo. ZACHARIAH is streaming on YouTube but this DVD-rip on Archive is far superior so Airplay that to your flat screen: https://archive.org/details/zachariah-1971-dvdrip-xvi-d Our second feature is the very-noir psychological western PURSUED from tough guy director Raoul Walsh in 1947. The Hollywood pothead par excellence ROBERT MITCHUM plays Jeb Rand who struggles to recall the massacre of his family through repressed memories and expressionist dream sequences. Making the past more than prologue is that the people who slaughtered the Rands are still plotting to finish the job. Also starring Teresa Wright as Jeb's love interest and sister-by-adoption (ew); Judith Anderson as the matriarch who's definitely keeping secrets; and the Skipper's dad, Alan Hale Sr. New Mexico's landscapes are brought to life in PURSUED by the breathtaking cinematography of James Wong Howe and it's all set to a sweeping Max Steiner score. Bob and Cory also discuss how Raoul Walsh got his eyepatch plus the ghastly prank the great director played on Errol Flynn, so wait for that. PAM GRADY will be introducing Scorsese's Dylan near-mockumentary, ROLLING THUNDER REVUE, on Sunday, Sept. 24th at the 4 Star Theater (2200 Clement Street, San Francisco).

This week, Ben chronicles the life of the deadliest man alive: John Keehan, aka Count Dante. Founder of the Black Dragons school of karate, and inventor of the Poison Hands technique, Count Dante was a man perhaps two decades ahead of his time. Loved by some, hated by many, he was the perfect heel, and both the pride and shame of Chicago. Sources: The Life and Death of the Deadliest Man Alive - Chicago Reader Count Dante - Wikipedia

Chicago native, James Keehan, known later in life as Count Dante, was a martial artist who considered himself a master of the violent fighting style known as "Dim Mak" and once challenged Muhammad Ali to a duel. Count Dante was a character before his time who had a vision for karate tournaments that would be harder-hitting, more violent, and much bloodier than what his fellow practitioners of combat were accustomed to. The "Crown Prince of Death" added flair and style to his persona and had big dreams but unfortunately, life seemed to always crane kick him in the face before he could accomplish those dreams.

In the 1960s, Chicago was becoming known as a center for Karate teaching and international tournaments, and the main person behind this movement was John Keehan. In the last of this two part series, we delve into Keehan's devolution into a persona he created, Count Dante. He was at the center of Chicago's “Dojo Wars,” which would end up taking a dark turn.

In episode 39 of Secret Level, we take a deep dive into the wild history of Count Dante and The Black Dragon Fighting Society! This episode is a little different, but it is tied to geek culture. This story is inspired by an old comic book ad from the late 60s and early 70s that we came across, and we had to know the story behind it! Little did we know how absolutely bonkers and fascinating the story would be! I mean, there were dojo wars in Chicago in the 60s and 70s! This is a crazy story of a bulls**t artist that marketed himself as "The Deadliest Man Alive!" Enjoy the show!Follow us on Twitter and Facebook - @GTSecretLevel
Ever heard of the hair dressing, car selling, cape wearing, karate master Count Dante? Yeah, me neither until I came across this incredible new project from the minds of J.C. Barbour and Wes Watson. You might have seen his ads in comic books back when. You might have even joined the Black Dragon Fighting Society to learn the secrets of Dim Mak from the Deadliest Man Alive. This new series is a take considerable liberties look at one of the lesser known but incredibly superhero like martial arts personas of the 70s. Count Dante is a new limited series coming out starting in April with Scout Comics. Where else are you gonna find Chuck Norris and Billy Jack in a comic book? Honestly, probably not that rare but give it a listen and ask your LCS to reserve you a copy of this unique book. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to Adstravaganza Part II! There's so much we wanted to cover about comic book advertising that we had to have a second episode; this one is jammed packed with Grown Ass Men goodness. This time we have three fantastic special guests. Joseph Dasaro creates art inspired by comic book ads and even has some tattooed on his body. https://twitter.com/dasarosmith Cultural expert Paco Taylor lays out the saga of the deadliest man alive, Count Dante! https://pacotaylor.contently.com Last but not least its another visit with Grown Ass young person Acadia Bost who continues the melancholy tale of trying to raise sea monkeys. Don't miss it! Original Music by Adam Bernstein Also follow us on Twitter - https://twitter.com/GAMcomicpodcast?lang=en
Any comic book fan, especially those who read comics in the 60's and 70's, will remember all the crazy ads that ran monthly across the pages. Perhaps you remember, Sea Monkeys, Count Dante, Raquel Welch pillows and other amazing items that you just had to have. Well, Grown Ass Men have always been super interested in these so we contacted an expert on the subject, Kirk Demarais. His book "Mail Order Mysteries" is a definitive look at the ads and what was going on behind the scenes. Also in this episode - a brand new cover of the Traits classic "Nobody Loves the Hulk" by Sam Mastandrea and Adam Bernstein. Give a listen folks! Original music by Adam Bernstein
Today we dodge herpes monkeys, take a year off work to watch the longest movies ever made, and visit the mean streets of Chicago to meet Count Dante, the Deadliest Man Alive!!! In a quiet state park in Florida, a monkey infestation is brewing. The government has been trying to fix the problem for nearly 100 years but the public wants the monkeys left alone. But now . . .30% of the primate population has Herpes B which is fatal to humans and just a scratch can lead to a painful death. Then we grab a years worth supply of popcorn and sit down to watch the six longest movies ever made! And finally, Count Dante was a man and a myth. His life was bigger than the comic books he advertised himself in. Did he really know the "Death Touch?" Did he compete in death matches overseas?

Today on The Neil Haley Show's Caregiver Dave Celebrity Segment, The Total Tutor Neil Haley and Caregiver Dave will interview Gretchen Bonaduce. We will discuss her book URVIVING AGENT ORANGE: AND OTHER THINGS I LEARNED FROM BEING THROWN UNDER THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY BUS. With talent, tenacity, and charisma, Gretchen Bonaduce has proven time and again that she can overcome adversity and make her dreams come true. Her first associate producer credit came from the 2003 NBC show Life Moments. That same year, she was picked to shoot a pilot for the soap network with daytime soap star Lisa Rinna. Learning she had a knack for producing shows, she then when on to Executive Produce two seasons of the VH1 hit show, Breaking Bonaduce in 2005/2006. Not only did she executive produce on the show, but she also appeared as a cast member alongside her then husband Danny Bonaduce and their two children. She is the proud mother of two children, Countess Isabella, and Count Dante, two kitties, David Bowie and Ini kitty, dogs Harley, Joffrey, and Brooklyn, all rescues.
Technically we're a news podcast, although it should be pointed out that "technically" is a powerful word. Join Graham and Rob for another journey through the sometimes strange worlds of science and technology news as they discover oddities like Elon Musk's latest "Boring" endeavour, getting power from screams (allegedly), spontaneous dinosaur combustion, slices of ketchup, armoured jackets for dogs, death-themed cafes, a rather strange company that wants to kill you in time for the Singularity, and much, much more. It's all deeply weird and terribly strange - which is basically the watchword of The Geek Show these days.

The hosts are a little loopy on boozy eggnog and holiday cheer as they tackle Defenders #23. Topics of discussion include: Holiday Pangea; Inspector Insector (aka Hank Pym) has a very unpleasant raygun; Hub's embarrassing Netflix history; Jack Norris is no Sandra Bullock; and a fun new nickname for the Sons of the Serpent. All this, plus Count Dante, and the return of Hostess Fruit Pie Theater! Enjoy! Enjoy!
