Tonight we celebrate the career of Terry Gilliam!What happens when the animator from Monty Python decides to direct movies? You get Terry Gilliam — an American who somehow made the most British films imaginable.Gilliam's fingerprints are all over Monty Python's Flying Circus — those cut-out animations, the grotesque faces, the surreal leaps between worlds. And when he moved into directing, he carried that style with him: cluttered sets, exaggerated characters, satire of authority, and a constant blur between dream and reality.You see it evolve across three films. Time Bandits — childhood fantasy meets biting satire, a boy escaping his consumer-obsessed parents to loot history with dwarves. The Adventures of Baron Munchausen — a sprawling tale of impossible adventures, about how imagination itself becomes resistance in a world closing in. And Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas — Hunter S. Thompson's American nightmare, filtered through Gilliam's absurd, grotesque lens, with Johnny Depp mumbling like a Monty Python character for two straight hours.Gilliam's films are infamous for their production disasters — blown budgets, lawsuits, near career-enders. But that's exactly why he matters. In an age of safe blockbusters, Gilliam shows what happens when you chase imagination at any cost. His movies are messy, personal, and unforgettable.Terry Gilliam isn't just a filmmaker. He's the warning and the inspiration — proof that cinema can still be wild.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

On episode #134 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, the four superhero sidekicks that is Bryan, Dan, Chelsea, and Preston, voluntarily subject themselves to Superman III (1983), the cinematic equivalent of doing whippets in a RadioShack parking lot. This is the movie where Christopher Reeve, once again donning the cape, finds himself paired with Richard Pryor. Arguably the funniest stand-up comedian of all time and, according to Warner Bros. executives in 1982, also the perfect person to anchor a family-friendly superhero sequel. The result? A film so spectacularly unhinged it feels less like a continuation of the Superman franchise and more like someone dared the writers to lose a bar bet. The post Episode #134 – Superman III (1983) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! Pitchfork Review – Katy Perry: Waking Up in Vegas Score: 7.9 (Best New Hangover)If Hunter S. Thompson had written Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas as a sugar-coated rom-com, Waking Up in Vegas would be the soundtrack. Katy Perry delivers a glitter-fuelled ode to bad decisions, late-stage capitalism, and the kind of hangover that makes you question both your life choices and whether you're wearing someone else's pants.The production is a strange hybrid of ‘80s arena rock bombast and Disney Channel pep rally — Max Martin and co. essentially weaponise cymbal crashes and four-on-the-floor drums until you feel like you've just mainlined a slot machine jackpot. Perry's vocals bounce between faux-indignant girlfriend and motivational speaker who's had three vodka Red Bulls for breakfast.Lyrically, it's a manifesto for the YOLO generation before YOLO was a thing. Lines like "Why are these lights so bright?” and "That's what you get for waking up in Vegas" feel less like pop hooks and more like your friend's drunken Instagram captions from 2010. This is not a song about Vegas so much as it's a song about waking up anywhere with glitter in your teeth and an inexplicable hotel charge.When Perry shouts “Shut up and put your money where your mouth is”, it's not just a chorus — it's a philosophy. The song is basically a musical dare, telling you to make the bad choice, own the bad choice, and then write a three-minute pop banger about it.By the end, you're not sure if you've listened to a breakup song, a pro-gambling PSA, or a piece of subtle anti-tourism propaganda from the Nevada Health Department. But like a $4.99 all-you-can-eat shrimp buffet, it's cheap, loud, and will haunt you for days.Verdict: The perfect soundtrack to putting $50 on black at 3am, losing, and telling yourself it was “part of the experience.”DUBBY DUBBY is declaring WAR on big Energy!

On episode #133 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, the squad piles into the back of a cop car with Martin Lawrence and Luke Wilson to revisit Blue Streak (1999), a film that now feels like both a time capsule and a comedic piece of nostalgia. Remember when buddy action comedies reliably paired the world's stiffest white guy with the loudest, most cartoonish Black guy, and then had them bicker their way to justice? Simpler times as they would say. The post Episode #133 – Blue Streak (1999) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

After eight weeks of cinematic exploration into the world of "drugs movies" for Season 11, Dan and Sarah are back to share some of our favourite moments from the season! Sarah's season of drugs films has certainly been a 'journey', and not always the warm, fuzzy, hot chocolate kind. From the 'quintessential drugs movie' vibes of Trainspotting and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and the notoriously bleak Requiem for a Dream, to the time-bending drug trips of Synchronic and the chaotic highs of Pineapple Express, this season has had it all. And yes, we've even managed to shoehorn in a few tangents about the American Pie franchise, Herbie, and why we'd rather live in the American Sock timeline. So, what can you expect from the "best of drugs movies" season, you ask? Well, apart from us probably weeping under the stairs, you'll get: Deep dives into drug-themed cinema, from the "most paranoid movie known to man" to films that make you question reality and the human condition. Behind-the-scenes insights including how David Bowie helped secure Trainspotting's iconic soundtrack and why Danny Boyle turned down a knighthood. Explorations of directors' filmographies, including the unique approaches of Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead and the distinctive, often challenging, style of Gaspar Noé. Chaotic discussion, pop culture detours (like debating sexy presidents), and strong opinions on everything from Love Actually to whether Rosie Perez needed to be so 'menacing' in Pineapple Express. Make sure to mark September 8th in your calendar as that is when we return for season 12! Would you like to see the full lineup for season 12?

By the 132nd episode of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, one begins to wonder if Bryan, Dan, Chelsea, and their revolving door of guests aren't actually podcasters at all, but cultural archaeologists, digging through the cinematic rubble of the '90s with the patience of Indiana Jones and the appetite of Mystery Science Theater 3000. This week, their excavation tool of choice is Operation Dumbo Drop, Disney's 1995 attempt to stage a Vietnam War film with all the gravitas of Platoon, if Platoon had a wisecracking elephant in the starring role. The post Episode #132 – Operation Dumbo Drop (1995) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

Welcome to the Shoot the Hostage Season Eleven Wrap Show! After diving deep into the hazy world of “drugs movies” for eight episodes, Dan and Sarah are here to unpack all the highs (and occasional lows) of the season. From the gritty depths of heroin addiction to Climax-ing with LSD-infused sangria, this season was quite the trip! Sarah, who bravely curated this journey into films featuring addiction, walks us through the complete lineup in order of release: Trainspotting Synchronic Go Climax Brokedown Palace Pineapple Express Requiem for a Dream Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas They delve into the diverse drugs movies covered, from imaginary time-traveling substances to the "everything under the sun" approach of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, examining both fictional and real-world issues. As Sarah chose the theme, Dan decided to reveal his dream “drugs movies” lineup, which has few surprises for Sarah. And prepare to test your movie trivia as Dan has a quiz for Sarah based on the films she picked. Will she remember the footwear-based concern of Raoul Duke or what Adam and Zach were stocking up on in go?

On the 131st episode of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, a podcast that has spent more time in the ‘90s than the Clinton administration. Bryan, Dan, and Preston revisit a movie that asks the big, important questions: Can an Austrian killing machine convincingly teach preschool? Is it okay to introduce children to heroin dealers before phonics? And why, exactly, was Kindergarten Cop shown at every elementary school movie day like it was Charlotte's Web? Yes, they're talking about Kindergarten Cop (1990), the high-concept action comedy where Arnold Schwarzenegger, fresh from body-slamming aliens and blowing up jungles, trades his Uzi for juice boxes and circle time. The trio dive headfirst into the genre whiplash of Ivan Reitman's wildly successful, weirdly traumatic family action-comedy. This is a film, after all, that made over $200 million by pitching itself as “Daddy Day Care meets Scarface,” except with more feral children and less Eddie Murphy in makeup. The post Episode #131 – Kindergarten Cop (1990) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Quivercast, we sit down with Zano @wet.marsupial—a passionate surfer, skater, and professional musician with deep roots in California culture. Zano's journey began in the cold, rugged waters of Northern California, but everything changed when his family relocated to Ventura County. There, he found a more welcoming surf scene and immersed himself in the Southern California lifestyle, splitting his time between riding waves, skating with friends, and jamming out on his guitar. Like many young surfers, Zano dreamed of going pro, but a hard truth from his dad redirected his path—surfing might not be the career, but music had real potential.That advice proved prophetic. Today, Zano continues to surf whenever he can, but his main focus is music. As the guitarist and singer for the band Strange Case @strangecase, Zano has found his rhythm touring globally as a guitar player with iconic acts like Sublime and Jakobs Castle. From local surf breaks to international stages, Zano has stayed true to the passions that shaped him. Tune in to hear how he balances his love for the ocean with life on the road and what it's like living out two California dreams.Stab Wetsuits 2023Fear, Loathing and Sublime Vegasjakobscastle.comSupport the showBUY THE ENDLESS SUMMER BOX SET HERE!If you like the QuiverCast here are some ways to help us keep going!

In this episode of Ear and Loathing, your hosts Aaron, Damon and George (The Gitmo Bros) talk about fancy watches, a high tolerance for shitty music, the pompous train we're on, and adolescent Andy Levy is psyched on Long Island. In the Torture Chamber segment, Aaron and George compete for meaningless points by making Damon listen to his most hated music. Will Damon survive the Torture Chamber long enough to play one of his favorite songs? Tune in and find out! Songs featured in this episode: "Blowin' in the Wind" (Stevie Wonder and Glen Campbell), "Crazy Nights" (Loudness), "Touch and Go" (Emerson, Lake & Powell)

On the gloriously unhinged 130th episode of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, Bryan, Chelsea, Wade, and, making a cameo so brief it rivals Dave Matthews in Don't Mess With the Zohan, Preston, plunge headfirst into Adam Sandler's 2008 absurdist comedy of a movie. You remember Zohan, don't you? The one that critics in 2008 treated as though it had personally wronged them, like a bagel shop that ran out of lox and schmear. The plot, if you can call it that, involves Sandler as a cartoonishly invincible Israeli commando who fakes his death, defects to New York, and fulfills his true calling: cutting hair and romancing Jewish grandmothers with the sort of sensuality usually reserved for X- rated Werther's Originals commercials. It's a premise so deranged that even Roger Ebert, God bless him, recognized it as a minor work of genius while everyone else sharpened their critical pitchforks. The post Episode #130 – Don't Mess With The Zohan (2008) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

Some people move to Texas for the brisket. Others come for the low taxes, wide skies, or a spiritual reawakening via H-E-B. But for Chelsea Nicole; fearless co-host, cinephile, and recent expatriate from the state that resembles a giant penis (Florida); it was the promise of freedom. And by freedom, I mean the chance to resurrect a 2001 cult classic starring Tara Reid, Rosario Dawson, and Rachael Leigh Cook in glitter eyeliner and low-rise pants: Josie and the Pussycats. Yes, Chelsea is back and officially a Texan, meaning she's now legally allowed to say “y'all” unironically and has probably already been gifted a gun and a pair of boots. To celebrate her Lone Star residency, we opened the vault of cinematic absurdity and dusted off Josie and the Pussycats, a film once dismissed as bubblegum fluff but now understood; by the enlightened few; as a prophetic takedown of corporate culture, mass marketing, and boy band brainwashing. Joining the pod is none other than returning champion and editor extraordinaire Kristi Shimek, whose knowledge of the craft is only matched by her ability to say "DuJour means bus pass" with a straight face. Together with Chelsea, Dan, and myself, we deep-dive into this satirical pop-rock opus on episode #129 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema Podcast. The post Episode #129 – Josie and the Pussycats (2001) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

There are few films that could convince four grown men in 2025 to willingly dodge the U.S. military draft, board a non-refundable flight to Hong Kong, and enter an underground full-contact martial arts tournament with zero formal training; ave, perhaps, for some light cardio and a YouTube rabbit hole of aikido fails. But in Episode #128 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, Bryan, Dan, Preston, and special guest Wade throw themselves; emotionally, spiritually, and imaginatively; into Bloodsport (1988), the film that launched Jean-Claude Van Damme into the cultural bloodstream like a spinning heel kick to the sternum.

Core purpose/passion: I believe healing begins in what I call “the innermost cave”—a place where one meets their greatest obstacles and finds the tools for deep transformation. Being in the cave means you're daring to live with your loss, It's where the shadows of grief, mourning, and the traumatic imprint reveal themselves. And given the chance, it will transform you. This is the heart of my work: not just surviving grief, but partnering with it, dancing with it, and emerging changed.  Website | LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Twitter    ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, FCAH, RBHT  As a de-registered (2021) board-certified naturopathic physician & in practice since 1992, I've seen an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.  My resolve to educate, empower and engage people to take charge of their own health is evident in my best-selling books:  'What Patients Don't Say if Doctors Don't Ask: The Mindful Patient-Doctor Relationship' and 'A Healer in Every Household: Simple Solutions for Stress'.  I also teach BowenFirst™ Therapy through and hold transformational workshops to achieve these goals.

On Episode #127 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, a podcast that functions as both group therapy and cinematic exorcism, our scaly trio of hosts turned their collective, dragon-singed gaze toward Reign of Fire; the 2002 post-apocalyptic lizard-thon that imagined a world where dragons reemerged from the London Underground and decided that humanity had simply had enough time. This month's theme? Man Month. A celebration of films from that hallowed, oily era when masculinity was measured by shirtlessness, gravitas, and one's ability to shout at mythical creatures while swinging an axe. Enter: Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey, and Gerard Butler; three men so hyperbolically manly in this film that you could bottle their sweat and sell it as artisanal barbecue sauce. The post Episode #127 – Reign Of Fire (2002) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

On Episode #126 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, our beloved panel of armchair cine-soldiers (who may or may not be honorary members of the IRA; the Irish Rewatching Association) don their greenest beer goggles and deep-dive into one of the more politically confused action-thrillers of the Clinton years. Somewhere between All the President's Men and The Pelican Brief, Alan J. Pakula must have asked himself, “What if instead of Deep Throat or Julia Roberts, it's Brad Pitt with an Irish accent trying to buy missiles in New Jersey?” Enter The Devil's Own (1997), a film that answers no questions but asks a few truly baffling ones, like: Who thought this script was ready? Why does Brad Pitt sound like a leprechaun who studied abroad in New Mexico? And why are Harrison Ford's eyebrows doing all the acting? The post Episode #126 – The Devil's Own (1997) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

"The only way to get through hell is to go through it."Co-hosts Alex Simmons and Chris Ryan have assembled a powerhouse panel of writers to dive deep into the fiery crucible where personal anguish meets creative expression. In this episode, the spotlight shines on the just-released "Soul Scream Anthology: Fear and Loathing." Every guest on today's episode is a contributor to this potent collection of horror stories for a changed world.Join Chris, Alex, and an impressive lineup—including E.F. Deal, Teel James Glenn, Karen Renner, Daemon Manx, Charles Barouch (aka Oliver Bear), and Stephen Van Patten—as they wrestle with the big questions: How do turbulent times, personal pain, and societal fears become the raw material for compelling stories? How can writers transform rage, anxiety, and grief into powerful fiction that challenges, heals, and provokes reflection?From stories inspired by political turmoil and censorship, to tales born from lived experience with violence, abuse, and recovery, the panel reveals how today's dark realities inform their most haunting—and hopeful—work. The conversation tackles the creative process, the emotional toll of writing through crisis, and the power of words to resist, connect, and transform.Whether you're a seasoned author, an aspiring writer, or a reader looking for stories that speak to these challenging times, this episode offers hard-won wisdom, candid confessions, and an unflinching look at the intersection of art and resilience.

A Note from James:One of the funniest guys I've ever spoken to—Dave Barry. I always love talking to him. He's been America's top humorist since the early '80s with a syndicated column in 500 newspapers and a long list of bestselling books. This is his third time on the podcast, and his latest book, Class Clown: Memoirs of a Professional Wiseass, is out now.We get into everything—his process, his adventures, and his signature style of humor that's made him a legend. It's always fun with Dave.Episode Description:James sits down with Dave Barry to explore the surprising journey behind his new memoir, Class Clown. Dave shares how his humor evolved from playful everyman columns to a more personal, story-driven style. They talk about his outrageous adventures, from picking up his son in the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile to getting booed by telemarketers and dedicating a sewage station in his honor. They also break down the shifting landscape of writing, how syndication shaped Dave's career, and why modern humor feels trapped in political silos.This is a rare chance to hear how one of America's greatest humorists built a career by doing things to write about them—and why his readers became his closest allies.What You'll Learn:Why Dave Barry was initially reluctant to write a memoir.How performing outrageous stunts became central to his writing.The critical role of reader engagement in building the success of his humor column.How the writing industry—and the path to building an audience—has radically changed.Dave's candid perspective on modern political humor and why neutrality feels impossible today.Timestamped Chapters:[00:00] Introduction to Dave Barry[01:00] Writing a Memoir: The Journey Begins[02:00] The Humorist's Approach: Balancing Persona and Reality[03:00] Adventures in Journalism: Creating Stories by Living Them[05:00] Tactical Humor: Rivalries, Stunts, and Getting Involved[08:00] When Humor Becomes the Story: Telemarketers and Public Reaction[12:00] Building a Community: How Dave Engaged His Readers[17:00] The Syndication Era: How Writing Used to Pay[23:00] The New Writing Economy: Substack and the Digital Shift[28:00] Assault Humor and the Loss of Neutral Comedy[31:00] What's Next: Substack, Slowing Down, and Florida's Wild Identity[35:00] Writing Novels vs. Columns: Dave's Fast-Paced Storytelling Style[41:00] Stand-Up Comedy and the Influence of Nate Bargatze[44:00] Comedy Club Lessons: James on Bombing and Recovery[46:00] Criticism: Dave's Approach to Bad Reviews[47:00] Farewell: Dave's Thoughts on Humor, Writing, and LegacyAdditional Resources:

On Episode #125 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, we cracked a dozen metaphorical eggs and finally found the perfect duck. Not a perfect duck, the perfect duck: 1986's Howard the Duck, a film so strange, so inexplicable, so duck-breasted, that it could only have emerged from the mind of George Lucas during what historians now refer to as the "Post-Ewok Malaise." The lineup this week: myself (Bryan, duck-lover, genius), Dan (duck-hater, probably allergic to joy), Chelsea (convinced this film is a PSYOP), and Wade Davis (whose facial expressions alone deserve their own audio track). Together, we swim through the feathered fever dream that is Howard the Duck, a film that made so little money and ruffled so many feathers that it inadvertently hatched an empire: Pixar. Yes, really. We owe Toy Story to Howard the Duck. You're welcome, America. The post Episode #125 – Howard The Duck (1986) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

The Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire is the largest ren faire in the state. It will bring out fairies, pirates, knights in shining armor, and more for five weeks, starting in mid-July, near the Skykomish River outside of Monroe. It has a whole lot of fans including one of our colleagues at KUOW, Vicky VanHout. She says Ren Faires are all about dressing up in medieval garb, dancing to medieval themed music, archery, and axe throwing. A celebration of cosplay and history together! But, not everyone is happy with the state of the faire. They say something’s amiss, and it’s not the pirates hitting the grog too hard or Mistress Tiddlywinks’ donkey breaking into the cabbage patch… The Village of Merriwick, AKA the fictional home of the Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire, is at the center of a new investigative report in the summer edition of Seattle Met. The story details a series of allegations about management’s treatment of volunteer staff and questions about their financial priorities, as well as bigger questions about changes that some argue are sacrificing the “soul” of the Faire. We reached out to both Washington Renaissance Arts & Education Society and Wandering in Time Productions for their response to Nathalie’s story. They declined an interview, but they did send us a statement: "Wandering in Time Productions is a Pacific Northwest institution, employing nearly 120 full-time, part-time, and contract staff. Its partnership with the Washington Renaissance Arts & Education Society has WITP providing essential services to help produce a high-quality, immersive event each year. In 2024, WITP assumed responsibility for guild and entertainer payments and transitioned to a more equitable contractor model, reinforcing its commitment to fairness and sustainability. WITP, in partnership with the WRAES, puts its heart and soul into bringing an extraordinary production to life each summer. Putting on a high-quality event that welcomes approximately 10,000 visitors daily takes time, effort and significant financial resources. Like many businesses across Washington, the Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire has felt the impact of rising production costs. As a result, we have had to make difficult decisions, including increases to ticket prices and a more selective vendor invitation process to ensure the Faire’s continued success. We have also adopted policies, such as quiet hours, meant to ensure that the greatest number of our guests and participants are as comfortable as possible. WITP is also aware that, in past years, a small number of vendors, staff and entertainers have acted in ways that do not reflect the values of our community. When concerns were brought to our attention, WITP responded quickly and decisively based on available information. WITP remains committed to creating a safe, respectful and welcoming environment for all. WITP and WRAES look forward to welcoming all our guests this summer, especially those who have attended for generations, to create magical and memorable experiences together. Our focus remains on creating a safe, inclusive and memorable experience for the many guests, vendors, entertainers and staff who make the Faire possible each year."

Join us as we delve into: Panicking to Cash When the market takes a downturn, it's natural to feel the urge to convert your investments to cash.
