IS MONSTER PARTY HAVIN' A LAUGH? JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD ponder the age-old question of whether humor and genre topics can live and laugh comfortably together. So, as Elvis Costello might ask… WHAT'S SO FUNNY ABOUT HORROR, SCI-FI, AND FANTASY? Let's face it, making a truly funny horror, sci-fi, or fantasy film or television show can be tricky business. There's a fine line between a loving send-up and an uninformed attack. And even with the best intentions, that doesn't guarantee you'll be watching a knee-slapper. In this side-splitting study of genre jocularity, MONSTER PARTY puts all their funny favorites (and not-so-favorites) to the test. How did films like ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN and YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN manage to find the sweet spot between over-the-top comedy and a loving homage to Universal horror films? Is SPACEBALLS a better film than we remember, or should we just push that reassessment aside and watch GALAXY QUEST instead? How do genre TV shows like RED DWARF and WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS generate laughs while presenting often thought-provoking horror and sci-fi concepts? Where do cult classics like DR. STRANGELOVE, REPO MAN, MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL, and THE ADVENTURES OF BUCKAROO BANZAI fit in? And are superhero vehicles like THE BOYS, PEACEMAKER, and the DEADPOOL film series the best comedies coming out of Hollywood today? Helping us answer these important questions while tickling our ribs in her own right is a return guest who is no stranger to the world of horror, sci-fi, and fantasy humor. She is a mega-talented writer who has worked on such beloved genre comedy projects as MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 and HANGING WITH DR. Z. Please welcome back… TAMMY GOLDEN! OH, AND YES, WE DID JUST WIN THE 2026 RONDO AWARD FOR BEST PODCAST! OUR HEARTFELT THANKS TO ALL THE MONSTER PARTIERS OUT THERE WHO HELPED MAKE THIS HAPPEN! NOW, LET'S START CANVASSING FOR 2027!    

Not many people can say they helped dismantle the most dangerous nuclear weapons network in history. Then again, not everyone is former CIA operative, Jim Lawler. Jim speaks to Raza Jaffrey about his CIA career (that almost wasn't), bringing A.Q. Khan's nuclear network to its knees, and whether he thinks a similar Khan-level threat is lurking in the shadows...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Få tekniska landvinningar har präglat ett århundrade på samma sätt som kärnvapnen präglade 1900-talet. Efter Trinitytestet den 16 juli 1945 och de ödesdigra bombningarna av Hiroshima (6 augusti 1945) och Nagasaki (9 augusti 1945) vändes stormakternas militära planering upp och ner – och världen blev inte riktigt sig lik.Som ett traumatiserat kollektiv reagerade världssamfundet först med tvekan, oro och bestörtning – och så småningom även med en sorts acceptans. Vad gör man med ett vapen som kan förinta en fiende, men som samtidigt är svårt att värja sig mot?I reprisen av avsnitt 27 av Militärhistoriepodden samtalar historikern Martin Hårdstedt och idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved om 1900-talets kärnvapenutveckling och dess betydelse för militärhistoria.Än i dag finns kluvenheten kvar. Kärnvapnen byggdes in i stormakternas arsenaler och förändrade taktik, strategi och doktrin – men de kom aldrig att användas i krig efter 1945. I stället blev de i praktiken testade och politiskt signalerade: en yttersta maktresurs som skulle avskräcka snarare än avfyras.Hur kunde det bli så? Nådde mänskligheten en teknisk slutpunkt när möjligheten att förinta sig själv blev verklig? Hur ska vi förstå den massiva upprustningen, bärsystemens utveckling och de doktriner som växte fram? Finns historiska paralleller – eller är kärnvapnen en unik företeelse i mänsklighetens militära historia?Med start i Manhattanprojektet diskuteras kärnvapnens tekniska utveckling, olika presidenters syn på vapnet, försöken att legitimera kärnvapen i säkerhetspolitiken, doktrinerna “massive retaliation” och “mutually assured destruction (MAD)”, samt de många bärsystemen och deras betydelse för stormakternas positioner i kalla krigets komplexa politiska landskap. Frågorna hänger kvar i luften.Bild: Svampmolnet efter Castle Bravo – USA:s kraftigaste kärnvapenprov (15 megaton) – vid Bikiniatollen den 1 mars 1954.

Dr. A.Q. Khan is making millions selling nuclear secrets but when he decides to sell the nuclear bomb to Libya's renegade ruler Colonel Gaddafi, the CIA and MI6 realise they need to act against Pakistan's real-life Dr. Strangelove.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Following the war, LeMay builds the Strategic Air Command (SAC) into a dominant force, though he struggles as a "fish out of water" in the political environment of Washington. He clashes with Robert McNamara and the Kennedyadministration during the Cuban Missile Crisis and the lead-up to the Vietnam War. LeMay's uncompromising approach leads to the infamous remark about bombing North Vietnam "back to the stone ages," reflecting his inability to adapt to changing public attitudes toward aerial warfare. Despite later being caricatured as a "Dr. Strangelove" figure, he never expresses remorse for the firebombing of Tokyo, viewing it as a military necessity. His legacy is further complicated by his disastrous 1968 vice-presidential run on George Wallace's segregationist ticket. Though he claimed he only joined to influence Vietnam policy, the move forever tarred his reputation, a mistake he eventually acknowledged by saying he was "a hero one day and a bum the next." 8/82016 LEMAY OFFICIAL PORTRAIT

Alexander Graham Bell made the first ever telephone call 150 years ago this spring. That single moment of connection would transform communication - and provide storytellers with a rich device for drama, comedy, intimacy and tension. Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode trace the history of the phone on screen, and examine how the movies have handled the thorny problem of the smartphone. Mark speaks to author and critic Kim Newman about some of the most iconic telephone calls in cinema, from Dr Strangelove to Scream.Meanwhile, Ellen delves into how film and TV are responding to the smartphone age, with the help of critic Kayleigh Donaldson. And she speaks to American filmmaker Janicza Bravo, whose 2015 film Zola made inventive use of the cellphone. Producer: Jane Long A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

Ever look up and wonder what you're looking at? Well, this time it's the Garage Hour. We're too busy to pull a Strangelove, however - there's a space station (international), a satellite (train or track), and a semi that got punted into orbit by Ktulu's little brother, Bl'Slyu. Pile them in with a mess of auto manufacturer recalls from the likes of Ford, Porsche, Tesla and BMW (just in case your driveshaft is separating, your cameras are shorting, or your fuel pump ain't), a few robot semis (those that escaped Bl'Slyu's wrath), an out-of-control tram (a trolley, but for fancy people), the return of the Bodycount Conundrum, some sporty urban shooting and a few deranged urban robot cars, and it's definitely good gearheadness. Just for sport (more of it): Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails, Ray Liotta, bad drivers, bad kitties, excellent cops, tactical gun training, terrorists, sinkholes, cloud seeding and more pinko spying.

“Based on what I've seen, it was done by Iran.” When Donald Trump spoke on Air Force One about the bombing of a school in southern Iran, he was, of course, lying.That is what Trump does but in the attack on Iran he has also tapped into the American fantasy about their righteousness that can only be fully displayed through military force. When Stanley Kubrick made Dr Strangelove, he was fascinated by what he saw as ‘the delicate balance of terror' that was part of the Cold War. To give his satire power he realised it needed ‘inspired lunacy'. That inspired lunacy now drives Trump's military strikes where satire is meaningless and death is what happens to other people.On Free State, we look at how far America will go in Iran. What happens when Trump loses interest? What happens when Netanyahu wants something else?Let us know what you think - info@freestatepodcast.com Hosted on Acast.

Author and broadcaster Samira Ahmed used to watch A Hard Day's Night once a week and she's just written an enthralling account of the shoot and its impact for the BFI's Classic Films series. A movie, she points out, that celebrates Britishness and suburbia made largely by immigrants that broke every Hollywood rule, a film made to capture the essence of the Beatles before the bubble burst “which turned out to be the start of something not the end”. She talks to us here about … … the film's connections with the Goons, the Young Ones, Dr Strangelove, Star Wars, Billy Liar, It's Trad Dad and the Nouvelle Vague … and its influence - from the Dave Clark Five's Catch Us If You Can and Paul Jones' Privilege to Charlie XCX and the Moment … how the train sequence for I Should Have Known Better invented pop video … the play John and Paul wrote (Pilchard!) that was a homage to its scriptwriter Alun Owen … Paul's two-day solo shoot with Isla Blair and other (mercifully) deleted scenes ... Profumo, pirate radio, the changing Britain of 1964 … Pattie Boyd, Anna Quayle, Alison Seebohm and other stand-out female stars … Wilfred Brambell's gigantic fee and how badly his part has aged … why George and Ringo emerged as the stars … surely the greatest scene? – “She's a drag, a well-known drag. We turn the sound down on her and say rude things” … “hair that moved!”: the film's impact in the USA … “beat-up and depraved in the nicest possible way” … and how the dubbed-on dialogue about Ingmar Bergman made the German version “a film for cineastes”.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 66: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: It's literally a disaster of BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS. Some of Trump’s Troops are being told that it isn't 'war with Iran' - it's a war to start a Biblical Armageddon: “Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to earth” says one whistle-blower NCO about his commanding officer. You heard it: a non-zero number of Trump Commanders aren't just fighting an illegal, ill-prepared, ill-fated war against an Iran that posed no realistic threat. To them it's a literal Holy War, start the apocalypse, end times, and then they all get raptured. More than 200 reports of such religious insanity, to a group called MRFF (Military Religious Freedom Foundation) and reported by one of my former MSNBC Coordinating Producers, Jonathan Larsen. MRRF is pushing back against us doing the whole Book of Revelations Crusades thing - and the newest development: the religious nuts in the military are holding emergency bible classes for those who may be deployed. Maybe not Apocalypse Now but Apocalypse SOON. The religious nut jobs are in charge, Hegseth may be in on the delusion, and so: no sign of bad luck in Rapture. B-Block (35:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The right wing allegation that MAGA Twitter twerp "Gunther Eagleman" only retweets if you pay him; Markwayne Mullin mistakes the smell of plumbing for the smell of war and keeps referring to "President Hegseth", and Weijia Jiang, CBS News reporter and president of the White House Correspondents Association. She and they not only actually insulted every journalist ever by inviting Trump to the Correspondents' Dinner - but he accepted and thinks he's getting an award. Trump is a man who has literally tried to get reporters killed for a decade, and they're going to sit in the same room with him. I guess because Goebbels is dead and is unavailable. I don't usually say 'I really went off on these idiots' but - I really went off on these WHCA idiots. C-Block (50:00) THURBER'S VERSION OF THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: His magazine-length version of his only non-fiction book, "The Years With Ross" about the founding of "The New Yorker" magazine (and its legendary, almost mythical founder, Harold Ross). It is as hysterical - and sometimes nearly as impossible to believe - as the best of his fiction.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Love… Relationships… Marriage… God's design for these things has always been radical. Some might even call it “strange.” In a world that's consumed by what's new and what's next, these teachings from scripture get overlooked. But what if God's design is the key to unlocking what God wants for you in a relationship? In a marriage? What if God's radical design is what makes love not only rewarding but remarkable. And all you have to do is embrace this Strange Love. Study Guide: https://mailchi.mp/mountaintopchurch/marriage-021526Learn more about Mountaintop Church at https://mountaintopchurch.com

How did Stanley Kubrick turn nuclear annihilation into a comedy? John, Matt, and Westy get into the Cold War satire that somehow made mutually assured destruction hilarious. We're talking Peter Sellers playing three roles (he was meant to do four, but pulled a sickie), George C. Scott being tricked into giving maybe the performance of his career, and a pie fight ending that never was. Plus, the realistic events that were so absurd Kubrick figured he might as well lean into the lunacy.

Devin & James are back in the Den for a career retrospective of one of Hollywood's greatest curmudgeons: GEORGE C. SCOTT!! We've been promising this one for years, and it's finally here. We've selected a handful of our personal favorite Scott performances, starting with Paul Schrader's notorious sleazeball thriller HARDCORE. Next, we ride the streets of 1970s Los Angeles with the criminally under-seen THE NEW CENTURIONS. Then we check ourselves into THE HOSPITAL for a particularly (im)potent Scott performance, and follow that with the existential cool of THE LAST RUN. Next, we take a trip to 1968 San Francisco in the disjointed romance of PETUNIA. Finally, we get spooky as hell with the greatest cold-case ghost story of all time, THE CHANGELING. Along the way, we take shorter looks at many other Scott essentials, such as DR. STRANGELOVE, PATTON, THE HUSTLER, ANATOMY OF A MURDER, RAGE, EXORCIST III, THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS, THE LIST OF ADRIAN MESSENGER, ISLANDS IN THE STREAM, and even a few others. Grab a stiff drink, settle in, and enjoy cinema's greatest angry man in all his salty glory.

This week, we review Dr. Strangelove (1964), Stanley Kubrick's pitch-black Cold War satire that turns global annihilation into biting comedy gold. Peter Sellers shines in multiple roles in this razor-sharp political farce where a deranged general sets off an unstoppable chain of events leading to nuclear catastrophe. Blending absurdity with alarming realism, the film skewers military logic, political paranoia, and the madness of mutually assured destruction.Is war a matter of strategy… or just one big Freudian slip?

On this edition of Scene Missing,I'm joined by filmmaker/artist Gabriel Hardman and writer/critic Ian Brill for a sharp, no-nonsense look at the 1946 noir classic The Strange Love of Martha Ivers. We dig into the film's ruthless psychology, its tangled relationships, and how the performances from Barbara Stanwyck, Van Heflin, a young Kirk Douglas, and Lizabeth Scott still punch hard today. Hardman breaks down the visual language and shadow work that make the film so uniquely tense, while Brill dives into the screenplay's moral ambiguity and the twisted power dynamics at its core. From the opening “accident” that sets everything in motion to the film's bleak, pressure-cooker finale, this is a deep, character-driven postmortem of a noir that doesn't get enough modern attention. Perfect for fans of classic Hollywood, noir obsessives, and anyone who loves watching a great movie picked apart by smart people who know how the machine works.
