Einige von uns haben vielleicht schon einmal eine CD oder eine DVD gerippt. Aber einen Film inhaltlich rippen? Da hatten Filmemacher in der Türkei und in Italien uns in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren einiges voraus. Mit „Remake, Remix, Rip-Off“ besprechen wir eine geniale Doku zu diesem Thema sowie vier weitere filmische Repräsentanten dieser Ära und wer könnte den Bastarden da besser unter die Arme greifen als Alessandro und Hakan von „Wir quatschen über Filme“?! Dabei flossen Raki und Rotwein in Strömen, bis selbst das Audiointerface darin ertränkt wurde.

QE or QT? The impact of these hangover expressions from another era is only now becoming apparent. Christopher Mahon of Columbia Threadneedle talks to Jonathan and Neil about how the Bank of England bought government stocks and sold them back at a loss. One example:paying £101 (QE) and later selling it for £28 (QT). The cost of this insane behaviour to the taxpayer? Probably over £115 billion (that's billion).Secure your tickets to our live event in Edinburgh – on the life and times of Fred 'the Shred' Goodwin – by clicking here.

This week, your favorite ex-puppeteers tackle the foam-rubber fiasco known as Mac and Me—the 1988 E.T. knockoff so brazen, it makes you wonder if anyone at the studio had actually seen E.T. (or sobriety).We dig into the wobbly alien puppetry, the animatronics that look like they were powered by a car battery on its last legs, and of course, that infamous McDonald's dance sequence that plays like a fever dream sponsored by fries. Along the way, we'll explore how this cult catastrophe came to be, how an iconic creature studio could produce such a disastrous puppet, and why Paul Rudd has spent decades keeping it alive on Conan.It's part roast, part puppet autopsy, and part ode to the kind of movie that's so bad, it somehow becomes immortal.Because sometimes puppets inspire wonder… and sometimes they inspire lawsuits.Join the discussion on our discord! https://discord.gg/JDtWJrhPF6Follow us on twitter @PMoNPodcast and on Instagram and Threads @puppetmastersofnoneFind out more about the puppet masters on our website: https://puppetmastersofnone.wixsite.com/puppetmastersofnoneOriginal Music Composed by Taetro. @Taetro  https://www.taetro.com/Send us a text
