From the ashes of Los Zetas rose the Cartel del Noreste or Northeast Cartel, a brutal splinter group led by the infamous Treviño Morales family and headquartered in the blood-soaked border city of Nuevo Laredo. Known for their military tactics, narco-tanks, and paramilitary wing “Tropa del Infierno” aka the Hell Troop, CDN wages war not only against rivals but against the Mexican state itself. This episode dives into their origins, their iron grip on smuggling routes, and the savage methods they use to maintain power. From public executions to armored convoys that look straight out of Mad Max, CDN represents the next evolution of cartel warfare.

Historically, pop culture has been so important to LGBTQ people, not only because we often experience sexual awakenings to figures in the media we consume, but also because so many of our favorite films, shows, and records have been created by queer people. In this episode, Gabe and Chris have a freewheeling discussion about pop culture, erotic discovery, porn parodies, cruising and Buffy slashfic, with our favorite podcaster and author: Ira Madison III.

Gaza is strewn with rubble, the war's end is nowhere in sight, and an entirely predictable humanitarian disaster is unfolding. With daily reports of starvation and malnutrition, Israel must provide a systematic and orderly distribution of large amounts of aid to stem the crisis—and stave off a Mad Max situation. Meanwhile, our abdication on USAID has led to human suffering elsewhere in the world, and Trump's supporters still seem more preoccupied with trans people in women's sports and a swimmer who came in 5th place. Plus, Trump's betrayal of the voters who fervently believed he would expose a global pedophile ring, how being gay has evolved into a 'super sin' among evangelicals, and reading the tea leaves on whether Trump is really getting tougher on Putin or if it's just a mood swing.

Strap on your goggles and hoist the sails, this week on Born to Watch, the crew dives into a post-apocalyptic puddle with their Waterworld (1995) Review, Kevin Costner's legendary aquatic epic that soaked Universal Studios in ambition, cash, and controversy. Whitey, G Man, and Damo reunite to wade through the waves of cinematic history, revisiting a film as infamous for its behind-the-scenes chaos as it is for its soggy storytelling.From the jump, the team questions Waterworld's place in pop culture infamy. Once touted as the most expensive movie ever made, this maritime Mad Max-on-water starred Costner at the peak of his fame, but was it his creative apex or the beginning of his soggy descent? The guys don't pull punches, balancing deep dives into production lore with their trademark irreverent humour.Whitey sets the tone by confronting the bloated ambition of the project: “Has any Hollywood star become so famous with a catalogue with so many peaks and troughs?” Cue a wide-ranging Costner retrospective, comparing the golden days of Field of Dreams and The Untouchables to the indulgent excesses of The Postman and yes, Waterworld. The verdict? Costner might've been drinking his own Kool-Aid, filtered through a urine distillation machine, of course.G Man leads the crew through the absurd plot, where the Earth is drowned, the polar caps are melted, and dry land is a mythic memory. Costner plays the Mariner, a grim, gilled loner with webbed feet and a personality drier than the lost continent he's searching for. The podcast doesn't shy away from the film's narrative flaws: characters with no backstory, Mad Max rip-offs, and a complete lack of chemistry between the leads, most notably between Costner and Jeannie Triplehorn, affectionately known as “Jeannie Triple Blurter” by the team.Speaking of performances, Dennis Hopper's turn as the Deacon is eviscerated with delight. Compared to his electric villain in Speed just a year prior, Hopper here is an oily cartoon, piloting a rust-bucket Exxon Valdez filled with chain-smoking goons. “It's a bad Beyond Thunderdome,” declares Whitey, and the panel doesn't disagree.The gang revels in the film's infamous production disasters: hurricanes, a constantly rewritten script, Costner's massive creative control, and his falling out with director Kevin Reynolds. G Man reminds us of the legendary quote about Costner directing himself: “Now he gets to work with his favourite actor and his favourite director.” Ouch.Despite the floundering script, there are moments that the Born to Watch crew appreciates. The practical effects, like the massive floating Atoll set and Costner's tricked-out trimaran, get nods of approval, even if the action sequences are undercut by choppy editing and goofy stunts. And the team can't help but laugh at the iconic “pee filtration scene,” the rope-assisted bungee jump climax, and the infamous underwater city reveal, which defies all logic and basic physics.One of the episode's standout sections is “Question Time,” where the trio tackles the film's most baffling plot points: How does the Mariner's boat outrun jet skis? How does dry land remain uninhabited? And why, oh why, would someone spend their life searching for paradise only to leave it five minutes after finding it?The boys also pay tribute to the lesser-known cast and crew: a young Jack Black in a blink-and-miss-it role, Tina Majorino (aka the Enola of Napoleon Dynamite fame), and the brilliant yet misfiring score from James Newton Howard. “He dialled it in harder than Dennis Hopper did,” quips Damo.By the end, the Born to Watch gang reaches a consensus: Waterworld is a cinematic curiosity, too ambitious to dismiss outright, too flawed to celebrate, and just insane enough to warrant a watch. Maybe once.So whether you're a fan of ‘90s action epics or just here to marvel at cinematic misfires, this Waterworld deep dive is a splash of nostalgic chaos you won't want to miss.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation:Is Waterworld an underrated cult classic or a floating disaster?Would you survive in a world covered by the ocean? And seriously, how does that boat outrun jet skis?#BornToWatch #Waterworld #KevinCostner #MoviePodcast #90sMovies #PostApocalyptic #DennisHopper #JeanneTripplehorn #CultClassic #MadMaxOnWater #MovieReview #PodcastLife

This week we are landing with a splat on the ground floor of a quarantined apartment complex in Spain for what may be the only (somewhat) heroic depiction of a landlord in film history!It's the very intense 2007 virus outbreak thriller from Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza, which spawned several sequels as well as the American remake QUARANTINE.Discussed on this episode: ethical video journalism, RESIDENT EVIL games, Catholicism, cinematographers with acting roles, and, of course, whether these infected qualify as zombies or not.Join the conversation on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours https://www.patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPodReferences:Special FeaturesThe Making of RECCrew InterviewsFilm Talk Paco Plaza InterviewIGN Plaza and Balagueró InterviewDrink and Be Merry at the Smodcastle Film Festival 08/08/25: https://www.smodcastlecinemas.com/movie/Smodcastle_Film_Festival_2025__Block_07Credits:Eye of the Duck is created, hosted, and produced by Dom Nero and Adam Volerich.This episode was edited by Michael Gaspari.This episode was researched by Parth Marathe.Our logo was designed by Francesca Volerich.

We finish our long detour from the Official M's with a stop at the guzzoline station once again with Nick, Elise, Anthony, Manny, and Dan.  It's a thunderous ride through Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga — and it's safe to say, George Miller still knows how to throw a punch (and then chase it down with a monster truck). This time, the Wasteland's most metal myth gets the prequel treatment, and we're all aboard for the full operatic fury of it. From Hemsworth's scene-chewing Dementus to Anya Taylor-Joy's thousand-yard stare, we debate just how much Furiosa earns its epic runtime and whether it hits the same mythic highs as Fury Road. Is it better as a five-part saga than a traditional three-act film? Does it matter when the action rips this hard? Opinions fly as fast as buzzsaws, and no one escapes unscathed — especially not Dan, who's doing some serious soul-searching over his Fury Road loyalty. Naturally, the crew takes a few exits off Fury Road to explore long-distance hauls, “Oscar bait for people who like explosions,” and whether or not Dementus would've thrived on Tumblr. Elise breaks down the emotional calculus of biker gang vengeance, Anthony stans for gasoline-based morality plays, and Manny lurks in the audio shadows, sharing a mic with Nick and dropping chrome-dusted commentary when it counts. If you're still chasing that War Boy high or wondering how many bananas it would take to build an oil refinery, this one's for you. Come for the dissection of Miller's lore-building — stay for the fight about Fury Road vs Furiosa that will absolutely tear your soul in half. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12037194

Sho Alli and Julia Kreuz break down the Blue Jays' 10-4 loss vs. the Tigers in the series finale. They take your calls and texts, and get right to the 11 strikeouts over seven innings of work from Max Scherzer - despite the loss, how important was this to see considering the injury issues over the course of the season? They get into Chad Green's struggles late in the game - does that change how much the bullpen needs reinforcements? Plus, they get into Bo Bichette going five-for-five, and throw around some names that could help bolster the offensive performance as the trade deadline nears. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

2015 was a MASSIVE year for franchises. Jurassic Park was about to get a whole reboot in the form of Jurassic World. James Bond was going to finally bring Blofeld and Spectre back in Spectre. Mad Max put the action genre on its head, coming back after 30 years with Mad Max Fury Road. And of course, Star Wars was finally brought back to the big screen in a big way with The Force Awakens. All of these, by the way, have been or will be reviewed by us at The Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast, so we recommend checking those out in our archives. The Mission Impossible franchise had a huge mountain to climb to stick out in a year where there were so many other things to choose from. But director Chris McQuarrie and company proved to be more than up to the task as Mission Impossible Rogue Nation was released and not only amongst the best received of the series. But it also grossed over $700 million worldwide and is still considered amongst the best in the franchise. Yeah, we'd say they stuck out. Join the gang as they look at the fifth Mission Impossible movie Mission Impossible Rogue Nation, and decide for themselves if it deserves all its praise. And come back next week as they look at 2018's Mission Impossible Fallout, and get closer to closing out the series.

Quel plus grand et effroyable spectacle que la destruction du monde ? L'Apocalypse de Saint-Jean, écrit à la fin du 1ᵉʳ siècle après Jésus-Christ, ressemble à un script de superproduction hollywoodienne : « Le ciel se retira comme un livre que l'on roule ; et les rois de la terre, les grands du monde, et tous les hommes, esclaves ou libres, se cachèrent dans les cavernes parce que le grand jour de leur colère est arrivé, et qui pourra subsister ? » (Rediffusion) Le texte biblique inspire depuis des siècles nombre de représentations, et reste une source inépuisable pour l'art spectaculaire par excellence, le cinéma.Un cycle à la Cinémathèque française, adossé à une grande exposition à la BNF, explore la représentation de l'Apocalypse au cinéma.Nous recevons François Angelier, l'un des commissaires de l'exposition et expert associé au cycle de la Cinémathèque lors duquel sont projetés 25 longs métrages, notamment Deep Impact de Mimi Leder, Dr Folamour de Stanley Kubrick, la série des Mad Max de George Miller, ou encore Melancholia de Lars Von Trier.À l'affiche de notre cinéma également ce samedi 15 février 2025, nous reviendrons sur les polémiques qui plombent les chances d'Emilia Perez aux Oscars, et notamment les critiques négatives émises au Mexique (avec notre correspondante Gwendolina Duval).► Pauses musicales : System System de Voilààà et Lass, Loose control de Jafunk, Apocalypse de Cigarette after sex.

The short-lived spree of Pavel Marinof came to an end on a lonely road on the outskirts of Melbourne.

We are coming in hot (think wearing leather pants in the desert hot) for #SCI-FI-JULY Presents: Dystopian Summer 2: Dystopian HARDER.  This week, we talk about WHEELS OF FIRE, a nearly New World movie directed by the famous/infamous Cirio H Santiago and starring Gary Watkins (Hunter), Laura Banks (Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan) and Lynda Wiesmeier (Avenging Angel).   If you haven't seen WHEELS OF FIRE you should know it's very different from the grossly overlooked action/musical, STREETS OF FIRE, starring Michael Pare and Diane Lane.  WHEELS OF FIRE blends everything you loved about MAD MAX and THE ROAD WARRIOR with a pinch of Lucio Fulci's CONQUEST and a heavy dollop of STRYKER.   WHEELS OF FIRE takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where shirts are optional, cars blow up at the slightest provocation and some people are trying to build a spaceship to reach a newly discovered planet.  Trace and his sister, Arlie, find themselves on a crash course of bad decisions that puts them in harm's way at every turn.  Sadly, Arlie gets the worst of it and Trace lacks any sense of urgency to save her.  Instead, he and his handy flamethrower blazes across the sandy abyss getting into fights with everyone he meets until he meets Stinger, a young, leather-strapped ingénue with a pet eagle that sounds like a hawk.  As you might imagine, one of us is not happy about this.  Each of us gives our own Letterboxd description for WHEELS OF FIRE and we spend an inordinate amount of time talking about the Baldwin brothers.  More specifically, the brothers that aren't named 'Alec'.  Can you name 12 movies off the top of your head starring Stephen Baldwin?  We couldn't either.  For all the shows in Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here:  https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/

**Heavy content warning! This episode contains coverage of a very problematic (and cursed) piece of film history. For those who wish to join us in the murky waters ahead, listener discretion is advised…Today we're introducing the listener-selected winner of this year's Miniseries MAYhem, our latest genre series: Lost and Found!!We're going deep on the origins of the Found Footage movement with some complicated thoughts on Ruggero Deodato's infamous and objectionable 1980 satire of western docu-journalism.

Viajamos por los paisajes desolados, hermosos y devastadores del fin del mundo. Exploramos cómo los videojuegos como Death Stranding, The Last of Us o Fallout, y películas como Mad Max o El Mensajero del Futuro, nos enfrentan a realidades rotas donde la humanidad lucha por sobrevivir. ¿Por qué nos fascinan tanto estos mundos colapsados? ¿Qué nos dicen sobre el presente… y sobre nosotros mismos? Sumérgete en el ABISMO y busca con nosotros las respuestas a los misterios que nos rodean. Historia, crimen y lo desconocido, se dan la mano en este pódcast. Hecho por gente, para la gente. ABISMO

A beloved Pride tradition around the world is the roar of Dykes on Bikes: a fierce motorcade of motorcycle mamas who kick off the parade with a chrome-plated spectacle of queer power, and noise. They first rolled onto the scene at San Francisco Pride in the mid-'70s and quickly became a staple all over the world. Inspired by those heavy-metal heroines, Chicago's own Bikes and Mics emerged—a no-rules posse of queer performers, riders, and creatives. This year, the group celebrates their 10th anniversary with a high-octane Mad Max–themed ride, complete with leather, dust, and rumors of a Tina Turner impersonator showing up as Aunty Entity.Today, comedian and motorcycle mama Tamale Sepp joins us to dive into the wild, fabulous history of Bikes and Mics and Dykes on Bikes—two-wheeled revolutions led by fierce queer women who love a little heavy metal rumbling between their thighs.BIKES AND MICS: https://www.bikesandmics.comFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM:★ instagram.com/tamalerocks★ instagram.com/faustofernos★ instagram.com/marcfelionPlus-• JoJo Siwa cancels upcoming Chicago Pride performance amid controversy over dating a man. • Comedian Margaret Cho says Ellen DeGeneres was “not nice” and acted like a “mean girl.”• Sidetrack, one of the world's largest gay bars, plans to open the first-ever airport gay bar at Chicago's O'Hare Terminal 1.• Openly queer musician Daniel Hamrick hijacks a ‘Straight Pride' event with a trans power ballad.

As a follow-up to the masterful Mad Max: Fury Road, Furiosa had a tough road to hoe. It mostly lives up to those lofty expectations, but it also suffers from the same ills that plague most prequels. We essentially knew the titular Furiosa's story. It was told brilliantly through the performance of Charlize Theron. Seeing it fully realized onscreen, as beautiful as it can be, doesn't feel entirely necessary. This only ends one way; we've been privy to that. In the end, your left to wonder whether it would've served this universe better to see what comes next. Why drudge up the past? Critics and audiences, those that actually saw it, loved what Furiosa had to offer. But that aforementioned question must have weighed on the general audience's mind. Grossing more than $200 million less than its predecessor, Furiosa lost a lot of money for WB. It may not have felt necessary, but it certainly deserved a better fate than that. Now, sit back, trade some guzzoline for a Sabre-Toothed Squirrel from Smog City Brewing, and top off your blood bag! The Thunderous Wizard, Chumpzilla, and Bling Blake are all shiny and chrome! Witness us! This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – Fury is born! Lingering Questions – Where does this rank in the Mad Max saga?

JD and The Ringer's Tate Frazier break down the first round of the NBA Draft, including the Raptors taking Collin Murray-Boyles out of South Carolina and his initial reaction (00:00), the talent taken at the top compared to projections, the astonishing trade between the Hawks and Pelicans, the Brooklyn Nets using all five of their acquired first-rounders, and the continued influx of Canadian talent into the NBA. Then, JD takes a look at Max Scherzer's return to the mound for the Blue Jays and what it means for the team, as well as the Evander Kane trade from Edmonton to Vancouver (43:13). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

The rapidly imploding remnants of the foot troops of the Democrat Progressive party have become truly bifurcated.  On the one side, elderly boomers whose remaining natural life expectancy is measured in single-digits, and on the other pandered-to ultra-violent Antifa basement dwellers who burst into teas at the mention of their biological gender.  Orchestrating both are the far-left Progressive puppet masters whose only remaining grasp on political power are their collaborators on the Federal bench and the 100 million illegal migrant third-world invaders they have brought into our nation, even as they watch a Mad Max horde of younger generation and increasingly conservative and patriotic Americans speeding up behind them in their rear-view mirrors, political pitchfork and torches in hand.Join me as I share highlights of this past weekend's geriatric ultra-violence, and laugh at the last desperate gasps of a Progressive fascism that, like all the other fascists before them, has failed in its efforts to destroy our great nation! Get Your FREE Copy of Our Best-Selling Book: "The Law of Self Defense: Principles"Visit Here: https://lawofselfdefense.com/getthebook"You are wise to buy this material.

We suit up with Nick, Elise, and Anthony for a screaming-death-metal joyride through Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior — a film that finally lets the Mad Max franchise become its full, feral self. This week's episode is a dirt-caked love letter to flamethrowers, mohawks, and one of the best truck chases ever put to film. With more grease, grunts, and guzzolene than you can shake a trident at, the gang is running on all cylinders. Elise marvels at the commitment to practical stunts, Nick channels his inner Humungus apologist, and Anthony quietly starts a one-man HR investigation into post-apocalyptic warlord ethics. We dig deep into George Miller's world-building genius, from snake-based anti-theft devices to the emotional fallout of boomerang fatalities. And while Max may only speak 16 lines in the whole movie, the hosts more than make up for it with their breathless, flame-fueled commentary. We get into the politics of wasteland sex appeal, the dietary mysteries of jacked desert warlords, and why George Miller should be legally required to keep making Mad Max movies until the heat death of the universe. If you've ever wanted to hear someone yell “I'm not a sex therapist but you can get fucked” and mean it as a character beat and a thesis statement — this is the episode for you. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082694
