Podcast appearances and mentions of Rocky Horror

Welcome back to Cult Season, where we continue our sincere attempt to make you feel a little bit worse about the world and everything in it.This week, we turn to Stefan Molyneux, online pioneer, prolific content creator, and self-proclaimed most popular philosopher in the world. Alternatively his wikipedia entry describes him as "an Irish-born Canadian white nationalist podcaster and proponent of conspiracy theories, white supremacy, scientific racism, and the men's rights movement." Charming...One thing is for sure: Molyneux is the only man alive who can turn literally any question into a monologue that combines demonic liberals, cutting off friends and family, and female reproductive choices. A true Renaissance man for people who hate Renaissance values.In this first episode we take a brief tour through the Molyneux Expanded Universe™, which includes some infamous clips from his early days as the creator of an online 'philosophy' cult themed around anti-spanking, anarcho-capitalism, and misogyny. We also cover his pivot to MAGA apologetics and overt white nationalism and finally to late-stage Molyneux, where he now lurks in Twitter Spaces, berating callers and insisting the world is populated by demon-ridden NPCs gleefully urinating on their moral superiors.Look forward to learning about his extensive rhetorical techniques, which include thin-skinned narcissism, a penchant for violent metaphors usually featuring urine and anal torture, his constant demand that listeners cut off their families and, of course, his favourite claim: that anyone who disagrees with him is a man-whore NPC who wants to kill you.Also featuring:A Weinstein cameo (because of course)Chris recounting the proto–Decoding the Gurus origin story involving a Facebook post and some early Molyneux contentAnd a rare chance to hear Matt physically wince at a Rocky Horror cold openIf you've ever wanted to hear a preening narcissist berate his listener for raising entirely reasonable points... well, this is the episode for you.Scott Adams should be careful, a new contender has emerged for his crown...Part 2 coming soon, assuming we survive this one.LinksFreedomain Radio 6162: The Most Frightening Fact!

On this week's audio and/or video episode Phillip is joined for the first time by Julie Klausner, a comedy actress, Producer, and comedy writer and of course podcast host of How Was Your Week, and co-host of Double Threat. They are here to discuss 1962's The Music Man starring Robert Preston and Shirley Jones. Phillip starts by reading the general information about the movie with some trivia bits thrown in. It's then time for Listener' Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Then Phillip and Julie discuss the film, that Phillip had never seen before. It's a very fun conversation. They then answer the question of whether they noticed anything in this movie that Tarantino might have liked or used in this film. Then they individually rate the movie. It's then time to answer whether they would buy this movie, rent it, or find it for free. Phillip then gives his Phil's Film Favorite of the Week; Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives (1986). Julie had to leave the show early because she had a hard out, but she did give her documentary favorites for the week; Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror (2025), Boorman and the Devil (2025), and Chain Reactions (2024). Phillip then promotes next week's show when he will be joined for the first time by Frank Hannen from the Bachata Talk podcast and Aventura Podcast to discuss 1972's The Godfather. Thanks for listening and/or watching.

Elise and Marcelo wish you a Happy Halloween by talking about the cult classic The Rocky Horror (Picture) Show! Featuring Joey Hamilton and special guest Rocky Horror creator Richard O'Brien.

The cult classic film The Rocky Horror Picture Show will celebrate its 50th anniversary this fall. Timed to the occasion, HarperPop will be publishing ROCKY HORROR: A Behind the Scenes Look at the Cult Classic (HarperPop; on sale September 30, 2025; 256 pages, 4-color throughout, $50.00; ISBN 9780063385689), a visual compendium of rarely-scene photographs by legendary rock photographer Mick Rock. Full of unique behind-the-scenes moments from the production of the iconic film, ROCKY HORROR is set to be the ultimate collector's item for fans and cinephiles alike.Capturing the essence of a cultural phenomenon that defied the odds, Rock's collection is a testament to the film's enduring legacy and its vivid undercurrents of sexual fluidity and B-movie camp. The Rocky Horror Picture Show initially flopped upon its release but rose to become a midnight cult classic, inspiring audiences to interact with the film through live performances and spirited audience participation.The late Mick Rock-famous for his work with music legends like David Bowie, Queen, and Blondie-was granted exclusive access during the six weeks of filming. His camera captured not only the action on set but also the essence and energy that made Rocky Horror unique. "I could snap whatever caught my eye, stirred my imagination," said Rock. This creative freedom resulted in an extraordinary collection of images that offer a fresh perspective on the film.The book features a foreword by Richard O'Brien, the creative force behind Rocky Horror, who reflects on the film's incredible journey to becoming a theatrical staple with the longest-running release in history. Interviews with cast members, Mick's personal notes, and other production ephemera are beautifully compiled in a stunning four-color format. The book also contains quotes from the legion of fans of the movie, including Joan Jett, Billy Corgan, Courtney Love, Juliette Lewis, Jinkx Monsoon, Duff McKagan, Anna Sui, Karen O, Trixie Mattel, Peaches, Norman Reedus, Cassandra Peterson (aka Elvira, Mistress of the Dark), and many, many more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Think you know the story?  Think again! Classic tales of literature, myth, history and legend as you've never heard them before... straight from the mouths of the characters themselves.   We've interviewed the key participants in the most famous and enduring stories of them all, and in five- to -ten minute monologues these legends give wildly contradictory accounts of what really happened... Think you know the characters?  Think again! Speaking candidly and definitively in an attempt to set the record straight, these famous figures finally reveal their true natures... shattering their popular images. Mary Shelley's classic tale of man dabbling in the creation of his Prometheus has never been told like this! (Well... Rocky Horror might have gotten the ball rolling!)

Plus, listeners talk about their favorite Rocky Horror memories, and what the story in its many forms means to them.

Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy play a little catch-up this week but also replay their early review of Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, opening this week in case any of you missed it. Before that though they talk about a tribute to an iconic cult film celebrating its 50th anniversary (Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror). Gabriel Byrne reexamines his troubled life (Death of a Ladies Man) while Renny Harlin delivers the sequel to his horror reboot (The Strangers: Chapter Two) and Jordan Peele produces a very confused horror film about football (Him). If Emma Thompson with a Fargo accent trying to thwart a kidnapping on a frozen lake is more your speed they have you covered (Dead of Winter). Or maybe its about June Squibb lying about being a Holocaust survivor in Scarlett Johansson's directorial debut (Eleanor the Great). Finally there are also a pair of romantic fantasies involving tests that lead you to your soulmate (All of You) and the latest from filmmaker Kogonada with Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell in a title that speaks for itself (A Big Bold Beautiful Journey).4:26 - Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror11:07 - The Strangers: Chapter Two17:40 - Death of a Ladies Man23:48 - All of You33:58 - Dead of Winter43:23 - Eleanor the Great56:08 - Him1:07:13 - A Big Bold Beautiful Journey1:20:18 - One Battle After AnotherCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCASTBe sure to check outErik's Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics' Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

Welcome to this special bite-sized Bonus Episode of Revolutions Per Movie with Linus O'Brien, director of “Strange Journey: The Story Of Rocky Horror", which documents the cult phenomenon created by his father, Richard O'Brien. We talk about Richard's curious charisma, his personal struggles & his accidental creation of Rocky Horror, Drag Race's Trixie Mattel's early life-changing experience with the film, how Rocky screenings continue to provide a safe space for everybody to be their authentic self, Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon, Rocky Horror being the longest running theatrical release in the history of film (and how the Clinton St Theater continued to run the movie to an empty theater during the pandemic so the run wouldn't be broken), the amazing archival footage of teenage Michael Stipe of R.E.M. speaking in the afterglow of the movie while dressed as Frank-N-Furter, 70s newscasters trying to crack the whys of Rocky, the live shadowcasts and toast & rice, and how the legacy of Rocky Horror boils down to two words: community and connection. So please support this great film in person this weekend when it's being independently released in theaters all over the world, and continue to support indie!GET TICKETS TO STRANGE JOURNEY (in theaters this Friday Sept. 26th):https://rockyhorrordoc.com/LINUS O'BRIEN:https://www.instagram.com/linus.obrienREVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE:Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film or music videos to discuss.

“It's just a jump to the left…” Join Ian, Megs & Liam for our 297th episode as we put on our fishnets, grab some toast, and throw rice in the aisles for a dive into the cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975). Kev? He makes a very late entrance—literally busting through the door in gold hotpants shouting “Don't dream it, be it!” in our 297th episode as we discuss: Is this the greatest cult film of all time—or just the weirdest date night ever committed to celluloid? Do we forgive this film for its lack of consent based on the overall themes of inclusivity… when maybe we really shouldn't? How Tim Curry turned Frank-N-Furter into one of cinema's most iconic characters—and why no one else could've pulled it off. Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick as “the straights”—and why they're the perfect foils for absolute chaos. We've got some thoughts on free speech and what's happening with Jimmy Kimmel—because much like Rocky Horror, controversy loves a stage. Why the soundtrack still slaps nearly 50 years later—and which numbers we still belt out. How the midnight screening culture kept this film alive—and whether fan participation is more fun than the movie itself. Which jokes land, which ones haven't aged well, and why the film still divides audiences. Is Rocky Horror satire, celebration, or just… unexplainable? And finally, whether The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the Best Film Ever—or just the best excuse to dress up and sing badly in public.

For episode 257, I'm joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski working behind the scenes. This episode is an Oscar season vibe check, as Myles and I do some category pondering. There's no big declarations or anything of the sort, though some potentially narratives are emerging. We also talk about The Long Walk (reviewed here by yours truly) now that Myles has seen it, while I tell him about Megadoc (reviewed here), Chain Reactions, and Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror. Throw in your questions and it's an episode with something for everyone...As always my friends and faithful listeners/readers, I do hope you all enjoy the latest episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, our 257th one to date (here's to many more).
