Andrew McCarthy, star of such iconic films as Pretty in Pink and Less Than Zero, is also an accomplished travel writer. His latest book “Who Needs Friends: An Unscientific Examination of Male Friendship Across America” tells of a roadtrip from New York to California during which McCarthy visited old friends and dropped in on both quirky backwaters and places of historic importance. Along the way, he learns from the men he meets on the road what friendship means and why it's a crucial element in a well rounded life. Pauline Frommer discusses the book and journey with McCarthy in today's podcast.Mentioned in this podcast:White Sands National ParkPoint Pleasant, West VirginiaWink, TexasClarksdale, MississippiOxford, MississippiThe BluesRoy OrbisonElvis PresleyEmmett TillDon GeorgeBook PassageAbraham LincolnOakland, CaliforniaFriendshipAlzheimersHeart DiseaseMentioned in this episode:Check out the Smart Travel PodcastThis week's show is supported by the new Smart Travel Podcast.

Andrew McCarthy sits down with me to talk about his fatherhood journey. His latest book, Who Needs Friends, Andrew explores his cross-country trip as he explores male friendship and loneliness. The book and road trip was inspired by his son, Sam asking him if he has any friends. Andrew was determined to see how men view friendship and the different stereotypes men feel they need to have when it comes to friendship. In addition we talk about how he wants to be a great role model to his kids about maintaining healthy relationships with friends. Lastly, we finish the interview with the Fatherhood Quick Five.  About Andrew McCarthy  Andrew McCarthy is the author of three books, Brat: An '80s Story, Just Fly Away, and The Longest Way Home — all New York Times best sellers. He is an award winning travel writer and served for a dozen years as an editor-at-larger at National Geographic Traveler magazine. Andrew has directed scores of television shows, but is best known as an actor for the past four decades, appearing is such iconic films as Pretty in Pink and Less Than Zero. He lives with his family in New York. Make sure you follow Andrew on Instagram over at @andrewtmccarthy. Also, make sure you pick up his latest book, Who Needs Friends wherever books are sold. About Who Needs Friends “You don't really have any friends, do you, Dad?”   A seemingly innocuous, if direct, question from Andrew McCarthy's son left him reeling. McCarthy did have friends. Yet, like so many other men, the necessities of modern adult life had forced his friendships to the background. At one point his friends had been instrumental in broadening his horizons, bolstering his courage, providing safe harbor. Now, McCarthy found himself questioning what had happened to those friendships. Whether he needed them, what he valued, and what he had to offer. A simple question had become a moment that demanded a reckoning.  About The Art of Fatherhood Podcast  The Art of Fatherhood Podcast follows the journey of fatherhood. Your host, Art Eddy talks with fantastic dads from all around the world where they share their thoughts on fatherhood.

This week I wanted to stick with movies that came out with soundtracks that felt current when the films were released. Not older songs brought in to set a mood, and not a random collection pulled together afterward, but albums that felt tied to the moment the studio was trying to sell.Fast Times at Ridgemont High, from 1982, is a good example. The soundtrack album came out that July, and Jackson Browne's “Somebody's Baby” reached number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, so the movie clearly had a connection to what people were hearing at the time. There was also some push and pull behind the scenes. Amy Heckerling later said some of the music choices reflected producer pressure as much as her own sense of the characters, which only makes the film feel more like a real snapshot of the early 1980s.Purple Rain, from 1984, is an even stronger case, because the movie and soundtrack are almost impossible to separate. The album came out on June 25, 1984. “When Doves Cry” was released in May, and “Let's Go Crazy” followed in July, so the film reached theaters with Prince already dominating the culture around it. I also like that “When Doves Cry” came out of a specific request from director Albert Magnoli. It was not just a Prince song sitting around waiting to be used. It was part of the movie as it was taking shape.Less Than Zero, works a little differently. People do not usually talk about its soundtrack with the same reverence, but it was still very plugged into late 1987. The Bangles recorded “Hazy Shade of Winter” for the film, and it went to number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, which gave the soundtrack real chart power. The rest of the album also feels very rooted in its time, with Rick Rubin producing and artists like LL Cool J and Public Enemy sharing space with a sharper, louder Simon and Garfunkel cover. It really feels like a late 1987 attempt to pull different parts of current music into one package.Then there is Singles, from 1992, which may be the best example here of a soundtrack capturing a scene while it was still happening. The album came out on June 30, 1992, a few months before the movie opened, and it included Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains, along with Paul Westerberg, who also worked on the score. Cameron Crowe later called it more of an anti soundtrack, basically a souvenir of that scene instead of a tidy album built to sum up the movie. That feels right to me. It was not trying to seem current. It actually was current. Even the gap between the album release and the film helped give it that feeling.So that is the set this week. Four movies, four different kinds of soundtrack success, and four reminders that music can tie a film to its moment just as much as clothes, locations, or dialogue can. One caught the early 1980s world of radio and mall record stores. One became a hit album right alongside the movie. One used a major single to help define its identity. One caught a local scene before it had even settled into history. Those are the kinds of rentals I always like talking about, movies that bring back not just the film, but the moment when it first showed up.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Released in 1985, Tuff Turf is an underrated 80s teen drama that blends street gangs, high school romance, rebellion, and punk rock attitude into one unforgettable cult classic.Directed by Fritz Kiersch (Children of the Corn), the film stars a young James Spader in his first leading role as Morgan Hiller, an intelligent and rebellious teen from Connecticut who is forced to move to Los Angeles after his family loses their business. Struggling to adjust to his new environment, Morgan quickly clashes with a local high school gang known as “The Tuffs.”Things escalate when Morgan falls for Frankie Croyden (Kim Richards) — the girlfriend of gang leader Nick Hauser (Paul Mones). As tensions rise between rival teens, territorial pride, jealousy, and violence push the story toward an explosive showdown. Along the way, Morgan befriends the eccentric and fast-talking Jimmy Parker, played by a very young Robert Downey Jr. in one of his early film roles.Tuff Turf captures the raw energy of mid-1980s teen cinema, combining elements of romance, action, and coming-of-age drama with a distinctly neon, punk-inspired aesthetic. The film also features appearances by Donald Fullilove (Back to the Future) and includes music from The Jim Carroll Band, adding authentic 80s grit to its soundtrack.Though it received mixed reviews upon release and earned a modest box office performance, Tuff Turf found new life on VHS and cable television, eventually earning a reputation as a cult favorite among fans of 80s teen movies. Today, it stands as a fascinating early chapter in the careers of both James Spader and Robert Downey Jr., long before their rise to mainstream fame in films like Pretty in Pink, Less Than Zero, Iron Man, and television hits like The Blacklist.For fans of classic 80s movies, teen rebellion stories, retro nostalgia, and early performances from major Hollywood stars, Tuff Turf remains a hidden gem worth revisiting.If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.

My Aim Is True is the 1977 debut album by Elvis Costello, marking the arrival of one of rock's sharpest songwriters. Blending elements of punk, new wave, and pub rock, the album delivers a raw yet sophisticated sound, filled with biting lyrics and infectious melodies. Backed by the American band Clover (before forming his own group, The Attractions), Costello crafts anthems of love, anger, and rebellion with tracks like Alison, Watching the Detectives, and Less Than Zero. With its nervy energy and literate songwriting, My Aim Is True set the stage for Costello's prolific and influential career.Listen to the album on Apple Music Listen to the album on SpotifyWhat did you think of this album?

As Gen Z slowly but surely unearths gems in film history, one of our beloved Gen X films, Less Than Zero, always seems to escape their discovery. This is because the film is not available anywhere- when it is streaming for a few months on MAX, my various text threads light up, but alas, it leaves as quickly as it comes. One of my top 10 gifts ever received was the Vinyl LP for my Birthday 5 years ago and they can pry my burned DVD of the film from my cold dead hands. It's one of my all-time favorites and I am not alone. Everyone knows that this is Robert Downy Jr.'s best performance, that fans of the Brett Easton Ellis novel hated it, that Jami Gertz' performance was widely criticized (not by me- I love it) and that Brad Pitt is famously in the movie as a random party guest, but let's look deeper into the design, the cinematography and the soundtrack. In this episode, we begin looking at the creative elements of this film that no one will discuss with me. No one. So here I am, crowd-sourcing for as much info as possible to put into one place.

“Dude, you know you can donate plasm…” Because of the obvious “Halloween tingle” wafting through the Bunkerpoon, we decided to finish out “the month of Halloween” with a rrrrrevisitation of the grrrrreen tinted, goth infused, Sabbath inspired doom metal druids hailing from Brooklyn, New York known as TYPE-O-NEGATIVE.    To be fair, “technically” we have already done an INSIDE THE METAL featuring TYPE-O, but that's been (approximately) 3 years and 10 days ago, and A LOT has changed since then, not only with regard to the world at large but also with the quality of this podcast as well. Having said that, we felt that discussing more TYPE-O-NEGATIVE made perfect sense, as their catalog (and our podcast) is all about “thickness and girth.”   HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ALL!!!  It's time to put on your “platfoam shoes” and get ready to r-r-r-r-r-roll your R's while trick or treating with “Tom Johnson” during our “pre-Chronicles Chronicles” Halloween event in the Bunkerpoon Dungeon. Remember that “Summer's Eve” is not the same as “Summer Breeze”, discover the proper way to prepare “a handheld” and JOIN US via the “Interdimensional Bunkerpoon Portal” as we go (BACK) INSIDE THE METAL (AGAIN) with TYPE-O-NEGATIVE.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode   Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182   Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, or wherever you get your Podcasts.

The At The Flicks team have often been referred to as Brats (ok, just one member in particular), so when Darren suggested we review a movie called Brats, it was too good an opportunity to pass up. It is not however our origins story.  Instead, it is a documentary about the mid 80's movie brat generation, told by one of their own.  Actor turned director Andrew McCarthy (who appeared in St Elmo's Fire and Less Than Zero), felt that the term movie brats, as coined by writer David Blum, was something of a put down.  While it's certainly true that the article that coined that term was less than flattering about that unique generation of actors, for many of us at that time, a “movie brats” movie was something to seek out and savour.  For Andrew McCarthy, both the director and essentially on-screen narrator, Brats became a voyage of self-discovery as he revisited both the past and other members of the so called Brat Pack.  He chats to Emilio Estevez, Demi Moore and Ally Sheedy amongst others.  What emerges is a fascinating study of youthful American movies of the period coupled with a satisfying self-reflection story. As for the At The Flicks team, things we learnt in our discussion were: ·         The Breakfast Club and The Cotton Club are not related. ·         Why we believe Anthony Michael Hall wasn't referred to ·         Why Molly Ringwald didn't appear in the documentary ·         Why Graham and Darren hate the music video of John Parr's song Man In Motion (Jeff on the other hand loved it) ·         Which one of the participants gave the most insightful reflection on the past Oh, and the team all realised they dislike the author of the original article, who is interviewed by Andrew McCarthy later in the documentary. So, if you have an interest in 80's cinema then this is a documentary you really don't want to miss.  We all gave it a thumbs up, which means Phil wasn't in the review group! See you for the next gonzo review show or At The Flicks  Bye for now

Jack and Geraint are joined by journalist Clara Hill (@clara_ish) and general friend of the show Eve (@femsocialist) to talk about the antifascist protests the two guests have attended in recent days, and the far-right riots that necessitated them. (NOTE: Eve shows up about halfway through.)

It's Brat Girl Summer! Well, kind of...We're in-between seasons here at Secret Handshake, so we decided to do another mini-series, this time focusing on the '80s kids from the Brat Pack. And what better way to kick this run off than with three films starring Andrew McCarthy, the guy who helmed BRATS - the Hulu/NEON documentary that runs down he and his peers' dominance of a decade's pop cinema scene. St. Elmo's Fire! Less Than Zero! Heaven Help Us! Let's fucking gooooooooo!

Bret Easton Ellis anser sig ha blivit svartlistad av både litteraturvärlden och av Hollywood med 30 år emellan. P3 ID möter kultförfattaren som skildrar sex, knark och seriemördare. Nya avsnitt från P3 ID hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. Bret Easton Ellis är bara 21 år gammal när han slår igenom med romanen ”Less than zero”. Plötsligt är han hela sin generations röst, när han skildrar unga, vackra och rika ungdomar som känner absolut... ingenting. Några år senare fångar han återigen tidsandan med boken ”American psycho”, en roman som beskrivs som så våldsam att hans eget förlag inte vill ha med den att göra.P3 ID möter en författare som med böcker som "Rules of Attraction”, ”Glamourama” och ”Lunar Park”, har förfärat och charmat både läsare och kritikerkåren i snart ett halvt sekel. I en intim intervju med P3 ID:s Vendela Lundberg berättar han om åren som litteraturens it-boy, om att bli cancelled, om att åldras – och om att kallas för reaktionär och bitter.Med den nya romanen ”Skärvorna” har Ellis gjort comeback och återvänder till 80-talets Los Angeles, en lika förförisk som farlig miljö där en seriemördare sätter skräck i staden.I avsnittet medverkar också författarna Tone Schunnesson och Stefan Lindberg.Programledare och avsnittsmakare: Vendela LundbergProducent: Sally HenrikssonLjudmix: Fredrik NilssonLjudklippen i programmet är från Sveriges Radio, BBC 4, Charlie Rose on PBS, Fox News, ljudboken ”The Shards” från W.F. Howes, ljudboken ”The Secret History” från Harper Audio samt filmerna ”Less Than Zero”, ”American Psycho”, ”The informers” och ”The Canyons”.

Time, time, time, see what's become of me....Three best friends, Clay (Andrew McCarthy), Blair (Jami Gertz) and Julian (Robert Downey Jr,) reunite at Christmas break after a disastrous Thanksgiving meeting. Blair has been worried about Julian, he owes Rip (James Spader) a whole lotta money, his family has had it with him, and he's freebasing in public spaces. Clay comes home hoping to repair these relationships, but finds a Hazy Shade of Winter instead. A cautionary tale that teaches us that just because you've lived fast and died young, it doesn't mean you're leaving a good looking corpse. Juggle some Jelly Bellies and unwrap a Ferrero Rocher, it's Less Than Zero - this week on Doom Generation.
