We're celebrating Brooklyn, the baby Brat Pack, and Boys' Catholic school with the criminally underseen HEAVEN HELP US. The Wives Colangelo are joined by podcaster, writer, and pop culture maven, Margo Donohue, who just released the book FILMED IN BROOKLYN all about movies set in her stomping grounds. We read a bit from Mike McPadden's TEEN MOVIE HELL, have the chance to examine how teen boys function differently around women compared to all-male groups, and try to figure out why we love Kevin Dillon's Rooney so much, even though he says the f-slur more in this movie than any others combined.--------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------Buy Margo's Book! : Filmed in Brooklyn https://www.arcadiapublishing.com/Products/9781467146760--------Follow Margo on social media: @BrooklynFitChik--------Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

Welcome back! After a VERY long break, Julia sits down with her friend a fellow Giants fan to discuss the upcoming season! *This was a recorded in early August so some events we are referring to are quite old* Enjoy! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
As the sun starts to set on the summer season, the boys are back with their season finale in I Eat Movies #13: Wanna Bet? - Little Darlings (1980) / Spring Fever (1982)! While the teen sex cycle of films from the 1980s would evolve into a genre told from an almost exclusively male point of view, the dawn of the decade suggested different with the coming of age charmer, Little Darlings. Costarring Tatum O'Neal (Paper Moon) and Kristy McNichol (TV's Empty Nest) as two girls from opposite ends of the track who are pressured into a bet to see who will lose their virginity first at summer camp, the vulnerability and relatable adolescent confusion displayed by the film's talented roster vividly recall all your teenage insecurities with beauty and hilarity. Next up, the old bait and switch is pulled with Spring Fever, a film not even remotely resembling its hijink-infused poster art. Instead, we're treated to a Canadian tax-shelter production concerning female teen tennis players competing at a Florida tournament that might just surprise you. In addition, we read from Mike McPadden's essential tome Teen Movie Hell (with words from the wonderful Rachel McPadden) and discuss the sometimes misguided and occasionally hilarious reviews both films endured from the critics of their day. All this and more to be feasted upon in our season closer so start munching!
After a 16 month pause, we are back with in-person screenings at our home venue of 4070 Vilas Hall. Things kicked off this week with a trilogy of films: MAKE WAY FOR TOMORROW, TOKYO STORY, and WHERE'S POPPA, that each explore the relationships between elderly parents and their adult children. In conjunction with our screening of WHERE'S POPPA we thought we'd share an episode of a podcast hosted by Cinematheque's Ben Reiser called 70 Movies We Saw in the 70s. This episode was originally recorded and published in July 2020, shortly after the death of Carl Reiner. The co-host for this podcast was film historian, Mike McPadden, whom you may remember from an episode of Cinematalk that he guested on with Jim Healy where they discussed Demons 2. Mike died this past December, and we are happy for the opportunity to share some more of his wit and wisdom with you now. Also on this episode is film historian, Kat Ellinger.
"Gary, I want you to know that I really appreciate what you've done for me. You've been a true friend."In honor of Mike "McBeardo" McPadden, the wives are joined by Wes Allen of the 'Why Did We Ever Meet?' podcast (and the father of BJ & H$'s niece and nephew) to talk about the super intense yet progressive drama disguised as a teen sex-comedy, THE LAST AMERICAN VIRGIN (1982). Misunderstood upon release, the three make the case for a reappraisal and argue this is the kind of movie the LGBTQ+ community can embrace.-----Articles DiscussedInterview with Diane Franklin: She Can Break Your Heart https://jerrysaravia.blogspot.com/2017/07/interview-with-diane-franklin-she-can.htmlTeen Movie Hell by Mike McPadden https://www.bazillionpoints.com/books/pre-order-teen-movie-hell-the-crucible-of-coming-of-age-comedies-from-animal-house-to-zapped-by-mike-mcbeardo-mcpadden/-----Follow Wes @WDWEMPodcast on Twitter and @WhyDidWeEverMeet on Instagram-----Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatpromFind the show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtProm-----You can also follow the hosts on their social media channelsBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor-----Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDooTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/
After the inevitable and seemingly mandatory Chicago vs. New York pizza argument (with Zion as a potential spoiler), Scott and Gabe decide to answer the real question: Just who the fuck is Ben Reiser? For those wondering the same thing, this episode is for you. Ben talks about what he did with all that Presidents Of The United States money, how a short film got him his job at UW Madison, and opens up about his late friend —and “Teen Move Hell” author— Mike McPadden.

Crackpot Cinema: Ep. 29 — BUSTIN’ LOOSE (1981) and D.C. CAB (1983) Guest co-host PAT HEALY comes roaring back for high-octane, outrageously anti-social, bizarrely heart-warming careen into the early-’80s R-rated comedy oddities BUSTIN’ LOOSE (1981) with Richard Pryor and D.C. CAB (1983) with — get ready — Mr. T, The Barbarian Brothers, Charlie Barnett, Marsha Warfield, Max Gail, Bill Maher, Irene Cara … AND Gary Busey as Dell (he demanded the special “AND” credit). Unnecessarily and inappropriately profane highlights include: • Joe Mason — Barber for Hire, Foot for Popemobile to Run Over! • The curious ’70s-turning-’80s phenomenon of R-rated PG movies! • How false advertising worked for BUSTIN’ LOOSE, but failed for BLUE COLLAR! • UNCLE TOM’S FAIRY TALES aka Richard Pryor’s THE DAY THE CLOWN CRIED! • Gary Busey does filthy toilet floor “intestinal yoga”! • Mr. T pities the gimmick star who can’t crowbar “Just Say No” messaging into a filthy comedy about genuinely dangerous and reprehensible “heroes”! • Pat Healy tweet-slaps Adam Baldwin! • Timothy Carey goes to Hell — and Charlie Barnett drives him there! • The profound impact upon young Mike McPadden of NEW YORK magazine critic David Denby’s one-line summation of ST. ELMO’S FIRE — i.e., “Directed by the brutally untalented Joel Schumacher.” (Thank you to KINO LORBER for putting out BUSTIN’ LOOSE and D.C. CAB as Special Edition Blu-Rays!)
70 Movies We Saw in the 70s: Ep #24 — JEREMY (1973) Fun City Editions kingpin Jonathan Hertzberg joins Mike and Ben to celebrate Vinegar Syndrome’s surprise Black Friday release of the Robby Benson-Glynnis O’Connor teen romance JEREMY (1973)! Gloriously awkward and credibly adolescent highlights include: • Robby Benson, sensitive Tiger Beat pin-up! • Glynnis O’Connor, sensitive Linda Blair-type! • Joe Brooks, composer of “You Light Up My Life,” star of IF EVER I SEE YOU AGAIN and — hoo-boy — what a creep! • The injustice of Robby Benson not scoring his own AM Gold chart-topper in the era of Shaun Cassidy, Andy Gibb, Leif Garrett, and Rex Smith! • The ability to buy a movie ticket at any time and see W.C. Fields, the Marx Brothers and/or King Kong during NYC’s “Fun City” era! • The cosmic connection between JEREMY and ON THE RIGHT TRACK! • The Dennis Christopher of BREAKING AWAY vs. the Dennis Christopher of CIRCUITRY MAN! • The case to be made for Willie Aames as an “edgy” teen idol! • The powers and abilities of “Supporting Characters” host Bill Ackerman that go far beyond those of any mortal podcaster! • Ben Reiser’s intensely “at-home” personal connection to Linda Manz, Ruth Gordon, and Lee Strasberg! • Yet another visit to Mike McPadden’s 12-year old psyche as it created a graphic carnival sodomy scene from ODE TO BILLY JOE that does not, in fact, exist!

The Cinematheque’s series of free, view-at-home movies continues with Demons a 1980s cult horror movie that, among other things, plays with the notion of movie theaters as a source for viral infection…and demonic possession. On this episode of Cinematalk, our special guest is writer and cinephile Mike McPadden, author of two positively essential film guides, the recently published Teen Movie Hell and, now in its third printing, Heavy Metal Movies, a compendium that describes Demons as "Italy’s hallucinogenic meta-commentary on its own berserk splatter movies of the ‘80s. McPadden has provided commentary tracks for several home video releases on blu-ray, and he’s also the co-host of two other podcasts we highly recommend, Crackpot Cinema, co-presented with TV writer Aaron Lee, and 70 Movies We Saw in the 70s, co-hosted with the Cinematheque’s Ben Reiser.

PRETTY BABY. BLUE LAGOON. ENDLESS LOVE. When contemplating "Brooke Shields movies," these leap to mind. Not here. Mike McPadden & Aaron Lee crack the pot with JUST YOU AND ME KID (1979), TILT (1979), WANDA NEVADA (1979), SAHARA (1983) and BRENDA STARR (1989).

For the maiden voyage of the SS Crackpot, Mike McPadden and Aaron Lee reflect on their past as HUSTLER magazine pros with four films dedicated to the “men’s sophisticates” game: the decidedly non-obscure THE PEOPLE VS. LARRY FLYNT (1996), Steve Coogan in THE LOOK OF LOVE (2013), the documentary PORN KING: THE TRIALS OF AL GOLDSTEIN (2005), and the Don Knotts/Nat Hiken head-scratcher, THE LOVE GOD? (1969). Bonus: we invoke one the Gods of Crackpot Cinema—Jack Webb—with an in-depth ramble on the smut-busting 1951 DRAGNET radio episode, “The Big Book.”
The Episode That Glows in the Dark! Mike McPadden and Aaron Lee pratfall into Le Cinema du John Ritter with AMERICATHON (1979), HERO AT LARGE (1980), THEY ALL LAUGHED (1981) and SKIN DEEP (1989)
70 Movies We Saw in the 70s: Ep 6—HOT STUFF (1979) Robust funnyman Dom DeLuise mounts the director’s chair for the first—and last—time with HOT STUFF, a Miami-set crime farce wherein he co-stars with Jerry Reed and Suzanne Pleshette. Together, they play kooky cops who set up a phony fencing operation to bust an array of contraband-peddling oddballs. Oh, does it not work. What DOES work, however, is UW Cinematheque honcho JIM HEALY joining co-hosts Mike McPadden and Ben Reiser to take on HOT STUFF for a zesty, informative discussion that includes Sydney Lassick and David Carradine (as his prison bride) in SONNY BOY; the Gene Siskel Sneer of Disapproval, what else was playing in Summer ’79; and how Dom’s directorial debut rests at the heart of the Hal Needham/Burt Reynolds/Mel Brooks Venn diagram.
Barbara Mackle had just been kidnapped. An armed man and woman had stormed into her hotel room, bound and chloroformed her mother, and taken her at gunpoint to their car. They drove for roughly 20 miles, then stopped in a remote, wooded area outside of Atlanta. They injected her with tranquilizers, then brought her to a grave. At the bottom of the grave lay a fiberglass box. It contained a lamp, food and water, and ventilation tubes. The kidnappers ordered her to get inside. Then they buried her alive. Then Brandi tells us a story that nearly ruined Halloween. It was Halloween of 1974 when Ronald O’Bryan and a friend took their children trick-or-treating in a Pasadena, Texas neighborhood. The children ran excitedly from house to house, getting candy along the way. But at one house, no one answered. The kids ran impatiently to the next house, but Ronald stayed behind. When he caught up with the rest of the group, he held five 21-inch Pixy Stix. The kids couldn’t resist.

Pop music has had its share of bands with siblings: Gallaghers, Finns, Carpenters, Davies, Wilsons (some with heart and some with surf), Isleys, Warhursts….. Then there’s the Mael men!!!!! Welcome to episode 135 of Love That Album podcast. Sparks, (ostensibly, Ron and Russell Mael) are that rare beast that are hugely identifiable despite having changed styles (and record companies) several times. By the time they released album number 11, “Angst In My Pants” in 1982, they’d experimented with rock, prog, euro-disco, pop….and they still had many albums and styles to go. Yet, when you hear a Sparks song, there's that "something" that makes you sure it's them. I am honoured to be joined by music and film writers, Heather Drain and Mike McPadden to discuss “Angst” as well as related peripheral topics. The album is loaded with jerky new-wave era pop. Like its title, much of the album sounds musically nervous and this is reflected in many of the record’s songs. Join us as we talk about cigarettes with human traits, Stars on 45, humour in music without being comedic, fragile masculinity, taking the Mickey, anxiety, and (of course) hiding public erections….amongst several other tasteful topics. I also make a production comparison that I hope Heather will forgive me for…….. Having Heather and Mike on the show was a joy. They brought so much insight, and I look forward to further shows with them.

70 Movies We Saw in the ’70s: WHAT’S UP DOC (1972) Barbra Streisand and Ryan O’Neal run brilliantly, hilariously berserk through San Francisco’s built-for-slapstick landscape, propelled forth by screwball comedy history, cartoon crack-ups, and director Peter Bogdanovich’s superhuman mastery of controlling chaos. Brooklyn boys Mike McPadden and Ben Reiser are also on the scene and you are, too, as we howl the praises of WHAT’S UP DOC!
Pop music has had its share of bands with siblings: Gallaghers, Finns, Carpenters, Davies, Wilsons (some with heart and some with surf), Isleys, Warhursts….. Then there's the Mael men!!!!! Welcome to episode 135 of Love That Album podcast. Sparks, (ostensibly, Ron and Russell Mael) are that rare beast that are hugely identifiable despite having changed styles (and record companies) several times. By the time they released album number 11, “Angst In My Pants” in 1982, they'd experimented with rock, prog, euro-disco, pop….and they still had many albums and styles to go. Yet, when you hear a Sparks song, there's that "something" that makes you sure it's them. I am honoured to be joined by music and film writers, Heather Drain and Mike McPadden to discuss “Angst” as well as related peripheral topics. The album is loaded with jerky new-wave era pop. Like its title, much of the album sounds musically nervous and this is reflected in many of the record's songs. Join us as we talk about cigarettes with human traits, Stars on 45, humour in music without being comedic, fragile masculinity, taking the Mickey, anxiety, and (of course) hiding public erections….amongst several other tasteful topics. I also make a production comparison that I hope Heather will forgive me for…….. Having Heather and Mike on the show was a joy. They brought so much insight, and I look forward to further shows with them.

Born in the drive-in theater backseats of the 1970s, the demonic visions of Teen Movie Hell fueled the VCR, cable TV, and shopping mall multiplex booms of the 1980s before collapsing in the 1990s in a pixelated pile of cable dissipation and Internet indulgences. Between George Lucas's American Graffiti in 1973 and Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused twenty years later, lust-driven laugh riots on the order of Animal House, Porky's, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and Revenge of the Nerds boomed at the box office and conquered pop culture by celebrating adolescent misbehavior run amok.

Mike "McBeardo" McPadden, author of TEEN MOVIE HELL - A CRUCIBLE OF COMING-OF-AGE COMEDIES FROM ANIMAL HOUSE TO ZAPPED! joins me for fantastic pizza from Gino's East River North (a true Chicago classic). We tackled a fantastic deep dish "Gino's Supreme" and had scant few leftovers to speak of by the time we left the car! We talked at length about teen coming-of-age comedies, and: We didn't use plates; we went "full animal." The "Slobs vs. the Snobs." Mike's book is perfect for bathroom reading. What leads a 50-year-old man to collect all this information on coming-of-age teen comedies? The quintessential teen movie moment: Phoebe Cates in "Fast Times." Why does "Fast Times" hold up better than most films in the genre? Mike takes aim at "Ferris Bueller," the "sacred cow" of coming-of-age movies. How does a book like "Teen Movie Hell" in the "Me Too" era? Teen movie archetypes: The jock! The nerd! The cheerleader! The fascistic authority figure! Chronic masturbator! The massive talent of Rodney Dangerfield. I like Gino's pizza so much I decided to wear it home. There were four "Revenge of the Nerds" movies. WHYYYYY? My main problem with "The Breakfast Club." Are coming-of-age movies still being made, or made well? Some of the more obnoxious movie titles, including Gimme an F! "Meatballs" is the moment when Bill Murray became Bill Murray. "Snowballing" is the second-best title in teen movie history. The fantastic soundtrack to "Valley Girl." Car Con Carne is presented by The Autobarn Mazda of Evanston.

This week on Arts & Seizures, hosts Mike Edison and Judy McGuire are talking booze and bars with guests Sean Manning, author of “Come Here Often?: 53 Writers Raise a Glass to Their Favorite Bar” and Zak Davis of Shmaltz Brewing Company. Kicking off the show, the group tastes a few highlighted beers from the Shmaltz Brewing Company line while chatting with Sean about how a neighborhood bar can become as comfortable as a second home or a memory best avoided—a wild evening half remembered and better forgotten. But what makes a particular bar special, better than the one just down the street? The answers vary considerably as the group welcomes Executive Director of Heritage Radio Network, Erin Fairbanks, and phone guest author Mike McPadden to the show for their thoughts. After the break, the hosts taste some more beer while talking about their personal favorite bars throughout the city. Tune in for a frothy show! This program was brought to you by Roberta’s Pizza.
