Wipe that shit-eating grin off your face and heed all of the content warnings (seriously), because we're discussing Pier Paolo Pasolini's notorious anti-fascist 1975 film Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom. Tagging in for the conversation is Zoë Rose Smith, the co-host of the Tainted Love podcast!Join us as we do a very deep dive into this controversial film, beginning with a Pasolini primer before parsing through the film's graphic depictions of sexual assault, torture, sadomasochism and coprophilia. This is an extremely challenging film, but dare we say we admire it?Plus: debating the queer representation in the film (can it be both positive and negative?), comparisons to our current political climate and discussing whether or not the film qualifies as porn (it doesn't).Questions?

Arachnophobes beware: we're discussing writer/director Mathieu Morel's 44 minute film Anapidae (Call Me), which is about an unusual graveyard caretaker who befriends the grieving widow of his dead lover.Oh, and he also has a pet tarantula that appears to be growing larger (metaphor alert!)Plus: what we like and dislike about this "novella", a Yann Gonzalez (Knife + Heart) connection, and making heads and tales of the dream-like sequences in the film.Questions?

Lay down a line of protective brick dust and scream "I don't believe!" because we are discussing Iain Softley's 2005 Southern Gothic thriller, The Skeleton Key.Starring Kate Hudson and Gena Rowlands, this Ehren Kruger joint has a great twist (or is it a reveal?) that may or may not have dicey racial implications.Plus: not trusting Peter Sarsgaard, Black character exposition, the difference between hoodoo and voodoo, and the ending we still can't believe a studio signed off on!Reference: Max Schiersner Caodaglio.

Send us a textA Florida beach meltdown, a nationwide cloud outage, and a truly awful Halloween costume walk into a workplace. What sounds like a joke turns into a sharp look at how culture, tech, and judgment collide where people get paid and policies get real. We return from a short break with fresh stories and hard lessons: how a single AWS failure rippled into payroll panic, why “it's just a costume” can become a harassment case, and what classic scenes from The Office still teach us about influence, uncertainty, and keeping teams steady when the headlines aren't.We share candid travel moments that morph into a discussion about public decency and liability, then pivot to an organizational behavior assignment featuring Michael Scott's surprising competence and Jim's cooler strategy. The contrast sets up a bigger point about leadership: sometimes you stabilize by dialing in the work; other times you intentionally break the tension. Knowing which move to make is culture management in action.From there, we unpack real HR mechanics. Outages expose how reliant we are on a handful of cloud rails and how unglamorous continuity planning saves actual paychecks. We talk tokenized mobile payments, vendor dependencies, communication trees, and the simple power of a backup plan. On the talent side, we challenge a common salary myth: it's not that people never negotiate, it's that strong recruiters pre‑close early. We walk through pay ranges, must‑have trade‑offs, and how clearer expectations prevent messy last‑minute asks that sour the relationship before day one.Finally, we lean into the Halloween talk: blackface is never okay, “terrorist” costumes are unacceptable, and sexualized gags at the office invite risk. If you want festive without fallout, set guardrails that are simple, inclusive, and enforced. We keep it snarky, but the aim is practical—help you avoid the next viral moment and build a team that can laugh without crossing lines.If this mix of real talk and useful tactics helps you navigate your own WTF moments, follow the show, share it with a colleague who needs it, and leave a quick review so others can find us.

Toss that girl in the pond and break out the good champagne because we're discussing James Whale's seminal horror film Frankenstein (1931) to celebrate the release of Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (2025)!Join us as we discuss how Frankenstein's success (along with that same year's Dracula), helped kickstart a series of Universal monster films. We also discuss what made this film so terrifying for audiences in 1931, despite the fact that the creature itself is one of the most sympathetic characters in horror history. Plus: another lesson in German Expressionism, lamenting the uselessness of Elizabeth (Mae Clarke), heaping all the praise on that dummy shot, and recounting a funny anecdote about....hard-boiled eggs??? Questions?

Monroe's 2010 remake of I Spit on Your Grave for its 15th anniversary.Beyond asking who is this for and why are there no female creatives involved (!), we're digging into the revenge, questioning the gaze, and talking about queer actor Daniel Franzese dropping his voice to play redneck. Questions?

In this episode, Anna Rose and Nico Mohnblatt catch up with Ian Miers from the University of Maryland, starting with his work on seminal ZK blockchain research, Zerocoin and Zerocash and the creation of the first zk-focused blockchain project Zcash. They then explore the history of trusted setups, including the trusted setup bug discovery in Zcash, and subsequent improvements like Powers of Tau. Ian also discussed his work on ZEXE, a system that has inspired the formation of Aleo, and his more recent works: zk-creds for building flexible anonymous credentials from existing identity signals like passports, and zk-promises for supporting anonymous reputation, moderation, and callbacks in decentralized systems. They also touch on broader topics like post-quantum security considerations, sybil resistance, and the need for programmable privacy tools.

Hop on your motorcycle, avoid that "child" in the road and slide to a stop because we're discussing Katsuhiro Otomo's seminal anime Akira (1988)!Join us as we offer a primer on all things Akira, as well as its influences on, uh, everything. We then work our way through its very, very dense plot, which somehow condenses hundreds of manga pages into a 2-hour runtime. This includes a queer read for Kaneda and Tetsuo, as well as debating whether or not the film has a "woman problem."Plus: raisin-faced "children," singularities, and one horrifying sequence involving malevolent stuffed animals (and a lot of "milk").Reference:Osmond, Andrew.

We're celebrating the 25th anniversary of queer director João Pedro Rodrigues' controversial erotic drama O Fantasma (2000).There's a lot to unpack in this movie with very little dialogue or narrative tissue, as we follow protagonist Sérgio (Ricardo Meneses) from sexual encounter to sexual encounter. It's a strange (and occasionally very, very hot) film that left us a bit perplexed, but we can't deny that it fascinated us to no end. Questions? Comments? Snark?

For Episode 350 (!) we decided we wanted a party, so we're headed south of the border to hang out at the Titty Twister with the Gecko brothers in Robert Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn (1996).From an epic game that lasts the whole episode to a little bit of drunken slurring by the end, this is a good time through and through. Plus: Quentin Tarantino's screenplay and how this collaboration anticipates 2007's Grindhouse (see previous episodes), worshipping Santanico Pandemonium, Trace's pitch to watch the TV series, and the many, MANY titles that we may cover in the future.

Just in time to celebrate the release of Macon Blair's remake, too!Join us as we offer a primer on all things Toxie before diving into this ridiculously silly (and charming!) little film.

Assemble your spear and follow the fly in the box because we're discussing Dario Argento's 1985 giallo fairytale, Phenomena.Starring Jennifer Connelly, Donald Pleasance and Argento's frequent collaborator, Daria Nicolodi, this movie is wild (seriously: take a shot every time we say the word).
