Django Nudo and the Smut Peddler are joined in the studio by Kitty Lash to explore the weird and wonderful world of Mondo films. First we explore parallels between Netflix's "Clark" (2022) and "I - a Summer Lover" (1972), the former starring Bill Skarsgård while the latter his dad Stellan Skarsgård and both getting nude while sleeping with mother/daughters, as well as "The Vicious Breed" (1955). Having argued over definitions of 'Mondo' and whether it is right to call tribes 'tribes', we dive into mondo movie maelstrom: Pigalle Crossing of Illusions (1973) - Spy thriller about stripper smuggling microfilm, but really just an excuse to show off lots of striptease and erotic acts from Moulin Rouge and other Pigalle venues. Include cowboy acts. (In Paris? Pourquois cowboys?) Mondo Balordo (1964) - Boris Karloff guides us through a world "throbbing and pulsing with love, from the jungle orgies of primitive tribes to sin-filled evenings of the London sophisticate." And Bedouin pimps - or maybe Lebanese. Mondo Freudo & Mondo Bizarro (1966) - We have visionary American 'scumbags' Lee Frost and Bob Cresse to thank for adding an American twist to the Mondo genre with their Olympic International films. "Possibly the creepiest of all the Mondo films," according to Kitty, but sexy in bits depending on your fetish and "strangely erotic". Mondo Bizarro also has an opening credit sequence and music track ripe to be ripped off by Quentin Tarantino. The Wild Wild World of Jayne Mansfield (1968) - In which we are taken on a tour of Rome and Paris by Jayne Mansfield, before she is then killed in a car accident (though not decapitated). Graphic, horrific footage from the crash. Made after her death, the film is narrated by a Mansfield sound-alike, talking about getting her bum pinched in Rome and interviewing tranny beauty queens. Her death car can be seen as part Scott Michael's Dearly Departed tours of Los Angeles. Mondo Pazzo, aka Mondo Cane 2 (1963) - Sequel to their ground-breaking shockumentary Mondo Cane is another beautifully photographed but equally disturbing crackpot travelogue of global gross-outs and international insanity. Kwaheri (1964) - We now go into darkest Africa. Warning from Kitty Lash: this Mondo film was the most stomach churning, with the open skull brain surgery by the African witch doctor. Cannot be unseen! Plus "wild orgies of the body and mind." Malamondo (1964) - Early Mondo film about weird teens doing things like skiing nude, distinguished by the soundtrack by Ennio Morricone. The score does not so much support the pictures as beautiful photography seemingly there "to give visual accompaniment to a hauntingly sublime score."Mondo Keazunt (1955) - Four Italians cross the "Green Hell" of the Amazon, with snake fights and piranhas eating a cow alive. Keazuntheit! Don't miss the sublime Spotify Mondo score collection and we promise to have Kitty Lash back soon. We end with a brilliant Mondo radio ad.

Ben Mitchell is an Australian singer-songwriter and activist writing songs with blues, country, folk and indie-pop influences. AMERICANA UK said “Mitchell has a strong voice that adapts well to a number of styles, but it's his song-writing skills that put him in a league above.” Released as a stand alone single in 2019, and perhaps Mitchell's most political song to date, ‘Right To Know' is Mitchell's call to arms for the good people of all countries to demand the right to know what governments are up to, supposedly, on their behalf. "You rarely hear political songs that sound so good but Ben has found a way to mix politics and a good ole fashion country hit in one. He speaks on many topics in this country track such as the government, farmers, and more. He creates a protest with firey guitar melodies and flawless vocals.” REIGNLAND (Music Blog) Beyond writing and recording protest songs and rally cries, in early 2020 Mitchell initiated a ‘truther' channel for sharing censored and non-mainstream news, Friends of Truth. This culminated in him being invited to speak and perform at the first ever Millions March Against Mandatory Vaccination rally held on the Gold Coast, Queensland last month. Mitchell's previous albums (Slow Is The New Fast, Summer Lover, Chance To Love and The Stars Can See) reflect his interests in eastern philosophy, basic human psychology and the infinite elements that make life an endless adventure. And love. Of course! In June 2021 Mitchell is due to release his latest album, ‘Are You Gonna Be Free', a collection of uplifting and inspiring songs written in response to the unprecedented tyranny and oppression sweeping the globe. This will follow the release of his current single, ‘The Great Awakening Blues' available on Bandcamp now. To donate Health Freedom for Humanity please visit healthfreedomforhumanity.org/donate
