FANGORIA Presents: Nightmare University (with Dr. Rebekah McKendry)
While Colors of the Dark is on break, bonus show Deep Cuts is back with another round of wild, weird, and wonderful cinema. This episode serves up a diverse mix of pure what-the-heckery, including lost 1980s gems (with some SOV), recent found-footage discoveries, Jess Franco, and another Soviet-era deep cut.
This week's episode taught Magda and Lindsay a valuable lesson: a bad book can be made better by an even worse movie. That's right, they're discussing all things Wuthering Heights…and “Wuthering Heights.” Okay, okay. So even though they may not have loved everything about Emily Brontë's sole work, they definitely agree it has depth and is, in its own right, revolutionary. The movie…well, that's another story….literally. Books mentioned in the episode: “Maryr!“ by Kaveh Akbar “Hope in the Dark“ by Rebecca Solnit “The Tattered Cover“ by Ellery Adams “The Gate of the Feral Gods“ by Matt Dinniman “Wuthering Heights“ by Emily Brontë “Agnes Grey“ by Anne Brontë “Jane Eyre“ by Charlotte Brontë “Samantha: The Next Chapter“ by Fiona Davis “Deep Cuts“ by Holly Brickley “Carrie“ by Stephen King “Foundation“ by Isaac Asmiov Email us!

It was a fierce business rivalry in the early 1900s between competing cave owners around Mammoth Cave in south-central Kentucky. It involved sabotage, dueling false advertising and smear campaigns, and other cartoonish hijinks that resulted in a national park being established. But it will go down in history as the most intense…cave disagreement known to man. --Written by Adam Smith--Join our Discord server!https://bit.ly/deepcutsdiscord--Pick up some Deep Cuts T-Shirts and other merch!https://bit.ly/deepcutsmerch--Get the official Deep Cuts shoulder patch!http://bit.ly/deepcuts_patch--Listen to our album, a 9 song rock opera about the rise and fall of Napster!https://open.spotify.com/album/63C5uu1tkzZ2FhfsrSSf5s?si=q4WItoNmRUeM159TxKLWew

On this episode of Word Balloon, I'm joined by writer Dave Baker to talk about his new Top Shelf graphic novel Punk N' Head, a wild, heartfelt, and sharp-edged story that blends music, identity, and outsider energy into something that feels both chaotic and personal. Dave breaks down the inspiration behind the book, the visual collaboration, and why this one hits close to home.We also get into his adventures in animation writing. The hustle, the rooms, the realities of working in that fast-moving industry,and he shares an absolutely insane story about developing a Navy SEALs vs. aliens film that proves Hollywood can be as surreal as any sci-fi script.On top of that, we talk about his own podcast Deep Cuts, where Dave digs into the overlooked, under-discussed corners of pop culture. It's a funny, candid, and occasionally unbelievable conversation about making comics, surviving the entertainment business, and finding your voice in the chaos.
Once again, the dudes get to be super nerdy about their favorite band and create a compilation of the best deep cuts from the 80s Metallica albums.

FANGORIA Presents: Nightmare University (with Dr. Rebekah McKendry)
This week's episode has a little something for everyone. We cover several brand-new films that didn't make our top 10 list but that we were able to catch this past week. Then we dive into made-for-TV witches, 1970s ghosts, 2009 direct-to-video fare, and one hell of a Hellraiser mock-buster. Additionally, we cover a legendary horror graphic novel that we had been dying to read for quite a while.I believe I had watched:Web of the SpiderFreaky TalesThe Steam ExperimentVash Level 2Spirit (hellraiser mock buster)

Scott made a social media post about the ruling on the field during the Buffalo Bills vs. Denver Broncos NFL Playoff game, and it went a bit viral. It was a quick, normal-people-language explanation of the controversial interception call from that game. Scott explained what the call on the field was and why it was called. Folks had a LOT to say about it.

We're breaking down the film that proved Brendan Fraser, Adam Sandler, and Steve Buscemi are the power trio we never knew we needed.Here's what's on the Playlist:The Review: Does the "slacker-rocker" energy still hold up in 2026, or is it just static? We discuss the chemistry of The Lone Rangers and why the "himbo" energy of Chazz Darby is timeless.The Box Office Breakdown: We look at the numbers. Airheads didn't exactly set the world on fire upon release, but how did it transition from a box-office "bomb" to a VHS and streaming staple?The Cast & Crew: From a pre-superstardom Adam Sandler to the legendary Chris Farley, we celebrate the incredible ensemble that filled out the airwaves.Deep Cuts & Trivia: Think you know everything about the movie? We're dropping little-known facts about the soundtrack, the original casting choices, and what actually happened behind the scenes at "KPPX.""How can you pluralize 'Lone Ranger'?"Join us as we settle that age-old debate and celebrate the film that taught us all that if it's too loud, you're too old.

In this episode of Deep Cuts Live, I sit down with Jason Wood, the founder of Outcast Cigars and a key figure behind Miami Cigar Co., to talk entrepreneurship, brand building, and what it really takes to carve out space in today's premium cigar market. We go beyond the blends and the bands to explore Jason's journey—from navigating distribution and retail relationships to building a brand identity that resonates with modern cigar smokers. This conversation dives into the business side of cigars, lessons learned along the way, and how Outcast Cigars fits into the larger Miami Cigar Co. ecosystem. If you're a cigar retailer, brand owner, or aficionado who enjoys hearing the why behind the smoke, this episode is for you.
In this episode of Deep Cuts Live, I'm joined by Teresa Wessling, a seasoned tobacconist at Georgetown Tobacco, one of the longest-running specialty tobacco stores in Washington, D.C. We dive into what it truly means to be a modern tobacconist—balancing tradition, education, customer experience, and retail best practices in a highly regulated and fast-evolving market. Teresa shares firsthand insight into building long-term customer relationships, maintaining a strong humidor program, and what makes a brick-and-mortar tobacco shop thrive in a city like D.C. This episode is especially valuable for cigar retailers, shop managers, and aspiring tobacconists, as well as anyone curious about the human side of premium cigar retail.
Season 6 of Deep Cuts Live kicks off with a deep dive into the world of ADVentura Cigars.

A blowout can be loud, but the echoes are louder. We kick off with Ohio State's rough night against Miami and pull the thread until it reveals something bigger: how trenches, tempo, and decision-making still decide games in an era obsessed with skill stars and highlight throws. The memes are brutal, yet the film is clearer—if your line can't anchor and your playcaller waits to adjust, elite edge rushers will turn your season into a cautionary tale.From there we zoom out to the shifting map of college football. NIL and the transfer portal have leveled the old money games, and the SEC's untouchable glow looks dimmer as unfamiliar programs crash the bracket. We debate fixes to the expanded playoff—home games for byes, tighter portal windows, incentives that protect seeding—and share why parity isn't a problem to solve but a feature to celebrate. Then comes our contrarian pick: Indiana's balance on offense and discipline on defense make them a tough out, especially against pass-happy teams that can't run when it matters.When the takes cool down, life barges back in. There's an 80-inch screen at a surprisingly classy Finley hotel, a vow renewal with church folks grinding and requesting Drowning Pool, and a chef whose green beans steal the show. We drift into the comfort of nostalgia—Sesame Street clips, Newgrounds chaos, the Chappelle Show sketches that still sting and still sing—and cap it with a metal rabbit hole that connects faith, fury, and riffs in all the right ways. Sports, comedy, and music collide into the same truth: preparation, timing, and conviction lift everything.If that sounds like your lane, hit play, ride with us, and then tell us what you think: should teams with byes get home playoff games? Subscribe, share with a friend who needs new takes and new tunes, and drop a review so we know what to dig into next.Send us a text message and let us know how awesome we are!

Send us a textEver notice how some jokes age like fine wine while others turn flat the second the credits roll? We dig into that sweet spot where craft, culture, and timing collide—starting with the thorny question of separating art from the artist as the Diddy headlines swirl, then moving straight into the films and shows that shaped our comedic DNA. From Boomerang's Black elegance and Harlem Nights' stacked cast to Life's eternal quotables, we unpack why Eddie Murphy still holds the belt for big-screen comedy while Jamie Foxx might be the most versatile performer of his generation—piano, pipes, and punchlines on demand.We run a spirited bracket on the funniest Black sitcoms to last five seasons, with Martin winning on character work alone—Dragonfly Jones, Jerome, and Otis still crack us up. Then it's a lap through sketch comedy's hall of fame: In Living Color as blueprint, Chappelle's Show as peak, and the ripple effect across Key & Peele. TV nostalgia hits hard with New York Undercover and a spicy take on The Wire, raising the question of what's timeless versus what's just beloved. Along the way, we share personal stories, unexpected cameos we forgot we knew, and the kind of lived-in details you only get from rewatching classics at 2 a.m.Horror fans get a full segment too. We draw clean lines between thrillers and slashers, break down why The Conjuring rattled grown folks, and revisit Candyman's lingering dread. Even spoofs get their flowers—Scary Movie, Hollywood Shuffle, and a few cult picks that still surprise. We close with a tight watch list—Vampire in Brooklyn and Talking Dirty After Dark included—and a big takeaway: classics aren't crowned by hype, they're proven by rewatch value, quotability, and how well they keep saying something real long after the moment passes.If you laughed, argued with us in your head, or added a title to your queue, follow the show, share this episode with a friend, and drop your top five comedies in a review. Your list might change ours next week.Thanks for listening to the Nobody's Talking Podcast.

He was a preschool teacher, but in the height of the 1980s Satanic Panic, he as well as other teachers at his school, underwent years of trials for sexually abusing children, becoming the longest and most expensive criminal case in United States history. And it resulted in zero convictions because, and this cannot be expressed heavily enough, no one abused children because they had all been coerced to lie by their parents and the police.--Written by Mike Bedard--Join our Discord server!https://bit.ly/deepcutsdiscord--Pick up some Deep Cuts T-Shirts and other merch!https://bit.ly/deepcutsmerch--Get the official Deep Cuts shoulder patch!http://bit.ly/deepcuts_patch--Listen to our album, a 9 song rock opera about the rise and fall of Napster!https://open.spotify.com/album/63C5uu1tkzZ2FhfsrSSf5s?si=q4WItoNmRUeM159TxKLWew
