With all its inventive, kooky, paramilitary (!) elements, Lost Lambs is delightful and wholly original. Except when it seems like a DIRECT descendent of Thomas Pynchon. Listen in to fully appreciate the narrative stance, the postmodern elements (don't worry, I'll provide a definition), the structure, and the ways this frothy novel is crucially subversive. And the gnats! Dive in to hear my theory for wtf is up with all the GNATs!
The 1990s gave us meta-slashers, satanic spaceships, exploding hookers, body-swapping action heroes, teenage witches and enough Nicolas Cage insanity to sustain an entire decade. Griffey, Heath, Sam, Sophia and Nick battle to assemble the ultimate team of messed up movies from the '90s. Scream, Event Horizon, Frankenhooker, The Silence of the Lambs, Fight Club, The Craft, Candyman, Face/Off, 12 Monkeys and Hocus Pocus are only the beginning. Was the '90s actually an underrated horror decade? Is Event Horizon secretly a Warhammer movie? Does Hocus Pocus belong beside Fight Club? And which combatant walks away with the strongest four-film lineup? Watch the episode, examine the evidence and tell us who won the draft in the comments.

Send us Fan MailToday's episode is my conversation about the 1931 film The Front Page. I'm joined by Matthew Carlson from the What Am I Making newsletter and we talk about the level of effectiveness of the film's humor, how this film paved the way for many that came after it including at least one remake of the story, and the deep rooted misogyny of the story.You can watch The Front Page on YouTube, Tubi, or Amazon Prime and be sure to check out Matthew's newsletter and check out his summer music tour this July and August.Other films mentioned in this episode include:A League of Their Own directed by Penny Marshall12 Angry Men directed by Sidney LumetHis Girl Friday directed by Howard HawksThe Philadelphia Story directed by George CukorAll Quiet on the Western Front directed by Lewis MilestoneOppenheimer directed by Christopher NolanThe Hangover directed by Todd PhillipsAce in the Hold directed by Billy WilderWhite Heat directed by Raoul WalshRain directed by Lewis MilestoneSadie Thompson directed by Raoul WalshOcean's Eleven directed by Lewis MilestoneMutiny on the Bounty (1962) directed by Lewis MilestoneMutiny on the Bounty (1962) directed by Frank LloydThe Spirit of St. Louis directed by Billy WilderGentlemen Prefer Blondes directed by Howard HawksThe Wizard of Oz directed by Victor FlemingThe Silence of the Lambs directed by Jonathan DemmeThe Front Page (1974) directed by Billy WilderSwitching Channels directed by Ted KotcheffWings directed by William A.

Author, podcaster, influencer! Jo Piazza returns to Parenting Is a Joke in the middle of a whirlwind tour for The Parisian Heist, discovering that the greatest luxury of author life isn't glamorous hotels but eating alone at Cracker Barrel, ordering room-service ice cream in a robe, and having nobody ask for a snack or an iPad charger. As Ophira Eisenberg and Jo compare life with a 10-year-old versus a nine-, six-, and three-year-old, they swap stories about a preschooler refusing to wear clothes to a fancy family dinner, settling for "parenting at 60%," and why every ambitious parent needs to stop whispering about having help and start saying it out loud. Their conversation moves easily from raising creative kids—who remake Jurassic Park, shoot stop-motion LEGO dinosaur films, and critique outdated '80s movie jokes—to Jo's meticulous writing process, explaining how she drafts dual timelines straight through before separating and rebuilding them, researches museums across Paris and Amsterdam, and even listens to Gwyneth Paltrow read her manuscript aloud. Along the way they explore the overlooked brilliance of Jo van Gogh, the real mechanics of art heists, why moms might make the best thieves because heists require planning and patience more than action-movie stunts, and how Jo's marriage began with spotting a promising "project" on a reporting trip to the Galápagos. The episode circles back to the small freedoms working parents crave, ending on Jo's perfect solo-tour ritual: eating a chocolate sundae in a hotel robe while watching The Silence of the Lambs instead of discussing tomorrow's family schedule.

Send us Fan MailEps.4 S3 Faith, Free Speech, and the Cost of Speaking TruthThe hosts draw powerful parallels between Kirk's assassination and historical political murders, noting how figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy met similar fates for speaking truths that challenged the status quo. They examine how mainstream media has selectively quoted Kirk to vilify him while ignoring the nuance of his positions, including his refusal to accept funding offers from political powers.Eps 5 S3 Brothers ReflectThe conversation weaves through personal reflections on loss, with powerful memories of their parents' passings and how those experiences transformed their emotional landscape. "My emotions are different after our parents passed away," one brother admits, highlighting how profound loss reshapes our perspectives on life. Their planned visit to their grandmother takes on special significance as they acknowledge it may be "unfortunately for the last time," while still hoping for more time together.Eps 6 S3 Spiritual Warfare in a Divided WorldThroughout our conversation runs an undercurrent of spiritual warfare—the sense that today's events reflect not just political or cultural struggles but a deeper conflict between good and evil. Eps.7 S3 A Conservative TalkFrom there, we widen the lens and tackle the mess of the moment: a grim Texas headline, claims of police stand‑downs, and the way leadership and media shape what we fear and what we ignore. We argue about the government shutdown, funding fights, and how outrage becomes a script. Then we crash straight into culture wars with a spicy take on the Super Bowl halftime debate and the Bad Bunny backlash—who gets the biggest stage, who decides, and why the choice feels bigger than music.Eps.8 S3 Everything Is Bad NewsEd Gein's crimes shaped Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Silence of the Lambs, and talk about what the series gets right: the psychology, the casting, and the uneasy line between truth and myth.Eps.35 S3Saturday Night FeverA bad day of Uber driving, tips, and not wasting gas • Banking fraud scare, cancelling a card too fast, and getting stuck at Walmart checkout • Claims of political corruption, investigations that go nowhere, and distrust in accountability Eps 37 S3 A Hot Summer Talk, Work and Media ScandalsJoe buys two lottery tickets and if he wins, he will buy a house for Thee Gooch, Sis, Remo and pay for being in the show and partial for the family, and Thee Gooch will built his own houseEps 38 S3 WIFI Technical Difficulties And Media Thee Gooch's having trouble login in the showJoe describing Thee Gooch audio dropping Thee Gooch is getting annoyed with his Wi-Fi Thee Gooch notifies Joe that he wont be on the podcast next weekJoe explains he was tired from work, he ate and drank 3 beers he fell asleep and threw up while he was sleeping and woke up choking and couldn't breathe and was coughing.Thee Gooch explains why are you eating while you go to sleep, there's people that die from that cause.Support our podcastTip us : http://paypal.me/theetalkerspodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/theetalkerspodTip us: https://buymeacoffee.com/theetalkers4uTip us : https://cash.app/$TheeTalkers
The Compendium Podcast: An Assembly of Fascinating and Intriguing Things
A headless body hung in a Wisconsin barn, strung up like a deer carcass. That was what police found when the Ed Gein case broke open on the first day of hunting season in 1957, and it was only the beginning of what waited inside his farmhouse. This is the true story of Ed Gein, the quiet, polite handyman from Plainfield, Wisconsin, who became known as the Butcher of Plainfield and inspired some of the most terrifying characters in film history. We trace how a domineering, deeply religious mother named Augusta shaped a lonely boy who never broke free, and how that obsession curdled into something monstrous after her death. You'll hear what really happened to shopkeeper Bernice Warden and tavern owner Mary Hogan, what investigators discovered among the rubbish and rot inside his home, and the detail most people get wrong: Gein only ever confirmed two murders. The rest of his grim collection, he said, came from graves he had robbed. We also untangle how one man's life fed three wildly different films; Psycho, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and The Silence of the Lambs, and ask the uncomfortable question of how much sympathy a story like this can hold. A true crime story about isolation, control and the real horror behind Hollywood's nightmares. Topics included The discovery in the barn on the first day of hunting season The murder of Bernice Warden and the antifreeze receipt that gave Gein away Augusta Gein and a childhood built on isolation and religious fear The suspicious death of Ed's brother Henry What police found inside the farmhouse The confirmed victims versus the grave robbing Mary Hogan and the women who resembled his mother The schizophrenia diagnosis and a lifetime in an institution How Gein inspired Norman Bates, Leatherface and Buffalo Bill Whether the story deserves any sympathy at all Resources and Further Reading Ed Gein - Wikipedia Deviant: The Shocking True Story of Ed Gein, the Original ‘Psycho' – by Harold Schechter "Monster, The Ed Gien Story (2025) - Netflix Host & Show InfoHosts: Kyle Risi & Adam CoxIntro Music: Alice in dark WonderlandCommunity & Calls to ActionReview & follow on: Spotify & Apple PodcastsInstagram: @theCompendiumPodcastWebsite: thecompendiumpodcast.comSupport us: Sign up to PatreonShare this episode with a friend!

As a fifth-generation farmer from Cowra, Jo Treasure works alongside her family managing prime lambs, Black Angus cattle, grazing crops and perennial pastures, while continually looking for ways to improve profitability and long-term sustainability. In this episode, she shares how she is running a mixed farming enterprise, making strategic business decisions, and encouraging more young people to pursue careers in agriculture. Jo shares how an unexpected gap year led to a lifelong career in agriculture, why she's focused on improving financial literacy and business performance on the family farm, and the practical decisions behind their livestock, pasture, and cropping systems. She also explains how direct marketing, feedlots, improved genetics and pasture management are helping build a more resilient farming business. You'll hear about Jo's passion for agricultural education, the school lamb program she's expanded across multiple schools, and why giving young people hands-on farming experiences could help shape the future of Australian agriculture.

This week on AwesomeCast 788, Sorg, Katie Dudas, and Dave Podnar explore the growing appeal of retro technology, screen-free devices, customizable gadgets, and digital tools that give users more control. Katie begins with Mama's Night Off, a browser game inspired by Dungeon Crawler Carl and the Maeve Chocolate Dirty Shirley bar. Dave introduces Garmin's new screenless fitness tracker, an alternative to smartwatches and subscription-heavy wearables. Sorg shares his experience setting up RetroArch on Apple TV, including its wide range of supported systems, open-source games, ROM management, controllers, and the tinkering required to make everything work. The conversation expands into the tension between digital convenience and physical ownership. The hosts discuss GameStop's response to Sony's physical-media decisions, the rapid progress of PlayStation 5 emulation, and why consumers are returning to CDs, vinyl, cassettes, retro games, and other physical formats. They also have an extended discussion about generative AI, creative production, AI-assisted image editing, automation tools, corporate responsibility, electrical-grid pressures, and the rapid construction of data centers. The hosts examine the difference between rejecting AI entirely and learning how to use it responsibly while still demanding accountability from businesses and government. Later, the show looks at NASA's Psyche spacecraft capturing a Mars flyby, Pittsburgh movie history through the Pastfinders app, a minimalist flip phone for people who want fewer distractions, a development board that turns old Nintendo Wii Remotes into customizable controllers, and Google Photos restoring a traditional search option alongside Ask Photos. Stories and Gadgets Discussed Awesome Things of the Week Mama's Night Off and the Maeve Chocolate Dirty Shirley Bar Katie shares a browser-based game connected to Dungeon Crawler Carl. Players fire magical projectiles at cherries to help create Mama's Dirty Shirley. The hosts discuss the game's intentionally retro presentation and voice work by Jeff Hays. Play the game and view the chocolate bar: https://maevechocolate.com/products/virgin-dirty-shirley/?game Garmin's Screenless Fitness Tracker Dave introduces Garmin's wearable fitness tracker designed without a screen. The device offers health and activity tracking without requiring users to wear a full smartwatch. The hosts discuss its approximately ten-day battery life, Garmin Connect compatibility, optional Garmin Connect+ subscription, and Garmin's reputation for durable hardware and direct fitness feedback. Engadget: https://www.engadget.com/2219713/garmin-finally-made-a-screenless-fitness-tracker/ Garmin product information: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/1989182/#specs RetroArch on Apple TV Sorg explains how RetroArch can turn an Apple TV into a multi-system retro-gaming device. The software supports numerous systems, including Nintendo, Sega, arcade, PlayStation-era platforms, and older computer games. The hosts discuss Bluetooth controllers, open-source games, shareware versions of Doom and Wolfenstein, storage limitations, organizing ROM libraries, and troubleshooting incompatible files. Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/retroarch/id6499539433 Supported platforms: https://www.retroarch.com/?page=platforms Awesome Person of the Week Ralph Teetor and the Invention of Cruise Control Dave highlights engineer Ralph Teetor, who became blind as a child and later earned engineering degrees. Frustrated by the repeated acceleration and deceleration of drivers, Teetor developed an early version of cruise control. The hosts discuss the evolution from basic speed control to adaptive cruise control and its relationship to modern driver-assistance systems. Teetor later served as president of the Society of Automotive Engineers, and an SAE award for educators bears his name. Automotive Hall of Fame: https://automotivehalloffame.org/honoree/ralph-r-teetor/ Chachi Says Video Game Minute Playing GTA III and Vice City Inside GTA: San Andreas A PC mod allows players controlling CJ in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas to walk up to an in-game television and launch GTA III or Vice City.

The discussion includes GameStop's continued interest in eBay and the changing economics of physical game retail. https://www.ign.com/articles/gamestop-ceo-ryan-cohen-insists-sony-killing-physical-discs-doesnt-matter-at-all-because-video-game-sales-make-up-so-little-of-his-business PlayStation 5 Emulation Progress Developers are making progress booting PlayStation 5 titles through multiple emulation projects. Two-dimensional games are advancing more quickly, while fully rendering complex three-dimensional games remains a significant challenge. The story sparks a broader conversation about game preservation, physical ownership, digital licensing, and consumer distrust. https://www.tomshardware.com/video-games/playstation/ps5-emulation-ramps-up-in-wake-of-sonys-end-to-physical-media-ps5-titles-now-booting-across-different-emulators-with-rapid-community-development-for-both-2d-and-3d-games AI, Creative Work and Data Centers The hosts discuss the growing use of AI-assisted tools in image editing, video production, business documents, email, captions, background extension, and design mockups. Sorg explains how AI can help reformat posters for different social-media dimensions without replacing the original creative work. The discussion distinguishes generative AI from other machine-learning tools, such as automated transcription, rotoscoping, search, and image organization. Dave raises concerns about social-media challenges potentially being used to gather free voice-training data. The group discusses how Google, Adobe, Canva, and other platforms increasingly build AI functions directly into existing software. The hosts argue that professionals cannot simply ignore the technology, but they should evaluate where it is appropriate and disclose its use when needed. The discussion also addresses the electrical demands of new data centers, corporate incentives, local government decisions, environmental protections, grid capacity, and the disproportionate placement of industrial infrastructure near lower-income communities. Their central argument is that rapid technological growth must be accompanied by accountability, regulation, public representation, and responsible development. NASA Psyche Mars Flyby NASA's Psyche spacecraft used a Mars flyby as a gravitational assist while traveling deeper into the solar system. The mission captured detailed images and a time-lapse view of Mars during the maneuver. Dave highlights the value of scientific exploration driven by curiosity and the desire to understand more about the universe. https://science.nasa.gov/blogs/psyche/2026/07/17/nasas-psyche-mission-delivers-mars-flyby-data-time-lapse-video/ Pittsburgh Bridges on Film and Pastfinders Sorg highlights a collaboration between Pastfinders and the Pittsburgh Film Office focused on Pittsburgh bridges featured in movies and television. Examples discussed include locations connected to Mayor of Kingstown, Sweet Girl, Jack Reacher, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Dark Knight Rises, Dogma, The Silence of the Lambs, and Mindhunter. The hosts discuss how the Pastfinders app sends location-based notifications about historical sites, movie locations, landmarks, and unusual local stories. Pastfinders: https://www.pastfinders.app/ Pittsburgh Film Office bridge-tour post: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1458603939638716&set=pcb.1458603999638710 The Light Flip Minimalist Phone The hosts examine a modern minimalist flip phone inspired by classic designs. It uses physical buttons, T9-style typing, a small screen, and a dedicated operating system rather than standard Android. The group discusses the appeal for people who want calls, messages, navigation, and limited apps without carrying a high-powered smartphone. They also consider whether younger users might adopt simpler phones to reduce social-media use and screen time. https://9to5google.com/2026/07/21/light-flip-minimalist-phone-announcement/ OpenMote: Repurposing the Nintendo Wii Remote Sorg introduces OpenMote, a drop-in development board that turns a Nintendo Wii Remote into a customizable controller. Demonstrations include pointing the remote at lamps to control them. The hosts brainstorm uses for smart-home controls, games, production equipment, lighting effects, custom 3D-printed controllers, and event technology.

The hosts discuss why some users prefer entering straightforward terms rather than asking an AI-generated question. The change becomes an example of why providing a choice can reduce frustration when companies add AI to familiar products. https://9to5google.com/2026/07/20/google-photos-classic-search-toggle/ Also Discussed The return of CDs, vinyl records, cassettes, retro games, and physical media. The difference between owning digital media and licensing access to it. Consumer distrust of large technology companies. The space required to store large physical-media collections. Using Gemini to interpret business acronyms and generate a first draft of a statement of work. Severe-weather alerts and Katie briefly leaving the podcast during a tornado warning.

It uses physical buttons, T9-style typing, a small screen, and a dedicated operating system rather than standard Android. The group discusses the appeal for people who want calls, messages, navigation, and limited apps without carrying a high-powered smartphone. They also consider whether younger users might adopt simpler phones to reduce social-media use and screen time. https://9to5google.com/2026/07/21/light-flip-minimalist-phone-announcement/ OpenMote: Repurposing the Nintendo Wii Remote Sorg introduces OpenMote, a drop-in development board that turns a Nintendo Wii Remote into a customizable controller. Demonstrations include pointing the remote at lamps to control them. The hosts brainstorm uses for smart-home controls, games, production equipment, lighting effects, custom 3D-printed controllers, and event technology.

The hosts discuss why some users prefer entering straightforward terms rather than asking an AI-generated question. The change becomes an example of why providing a choice can reduce frustration when companies add AI to familiar products. https://9to5google.com/2026/07/20/google-photos-classic-search-toggle/ Also Discussed The return of CDs, vinyl records, cassettes, retro games, and physical media. The difference between owning digital media and licensing access to it. Consumer distrust of large technology companies. The space required to store large physical-media collections. Using Gemini to interpret business acronyms and generate a first draft of a statement of work. Severe-weather alerts and Katie briefly leaving the podcast during a tornado warning. Dave's upcoming races, including the Two-Face Race and Trick or Trot 5K. The next AwesomeCast interview with Spotter Global and its technology for detecting drones and identifying operators.

The vision of the animals explained by Heaven, and looks like the same interpretation of Daniel 2's statue. Then comes the ram and the goat prophecy and the Spirit's pointing to the location of the antichrist's sources.
This is another piece of HardLore history in the making, as we're joined by our first ever actor, the great Brooke Smith of Silence of the Lambs, Grey's Anatomy, Bates Motel and more!I am once again joined, very appropriately, by Alec Faber of Holy Blade, Twitching Tongues & God's Hate (and formerly of the Reel Deal podcast with… me)Long before she graced the silver screen as the iconic Catherine Martin in Silence of the Lambs , you could find her romping around all over the lower east side as one of the infamous WARZONE WOMEN, and a staple of 1980's New York Hardcore. She spent the golden decade of NYHC taking legendary photos of bands like Agnostic Front, Bad Brains, Cro-Mags, Underdog and more, as documented in her incredible book Sunday Matinee.We get into her life as a legendary publicist's daughter, befriending and falling out with the Cro-Mags, the informal formation of the Warzone Women, growing out of hardcore just as acting started to become more serious, her life changing by being in one of the greatest movies of all time, AGAIN with Grey's Anatomy, and everything in between… An incredibly fun conversation with a genuine legend.

Daniel now serves Darius the Median King and is honored in the same way, but not without a challenge from some jealous peers. Also we hear the vison of the four animals.
Nebuchadnezzar seriously humbled, then restored, then a vocal champion for God. But a successor, Belshazzar, isn't buying the story and has to receive a visitation of his own, which Daniel explains. Babylonia is finished.
And we're back... Jackson playing hurt. Reliving the magic of 1380 the Woman. Talking muffins. Talking about the TV series “The Five Star Weekend”. Iggy's recollection of this show is shaky at best. We start talking about the killing floors and the slaughter process. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Nebuchadnezzar creates a statue of his own and demands all worhsip it. Those who refuse - 3 Jewish provincial leaders - are thrown into a fire that has no power over them. Nebuchadnezzar repents. But soon after he is warned about his coming humiliation.
Daniel interprets the dream of a pagan king and gives us an outline of world history from the time of Babylonia until the coming of Jesus to set up His Kingdom!
