    Episode 14: Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    Late-style masterpiece? Lore-encumbered dud? Or something in between? Snot Priest (Cole) and Piss Smelter (Bryan) shift into gear to discuss Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, and whether the great George Miller still has it in him to make it epic.

    Episode 13: No Blade of Grass

    Took a while, but we finally covered a movie about a guy with an eyepatch. Bear with us as we rank the best live births in film, severely misinterpret a Rolls Royce joke, and manage to only make ONE covid-19 comparison. All this and more(?), in Cornel Wilde's No Blade of Grass!

    Episode 11: In the Mouth of Madness

    Peer behind the veil into a world not unlike our own, where fiction subsumes reality, fandom precipitates violence, and John Carpenter directs a monster movie within an inch of its life. It's In the Mouth of Madness, adapted from Sutter Cane's novel of the same name, starring John Trent, Linda Styles, and Jackson Harglow.

    Episode 10: The Running Man, with Patrick H. Willems

    Your favorite show is back - and so is this podcast! In what we're noncommittally declaring our "season 2 premiere", we pick the brain of YouTube wunderkind and longtime pal Patrick Willems (@patrickhwillems) on all things 80s, up to and including Paul Michael Glaser's The Running Man. Don't change the channel!

    Episode 9: Delicatessen

    Carve out some time, because this one's meaty; let's hope we didn't butcher it. It's time to dig into Delicatessen (1991), un film français de Jean-Pierre Jeunet et Marc Caro.

    Episode 8: Southland Tales

    Hold on for dear life as we go all in on Richard Kelly's densely-layered political panorama Southland Tales, one of the boldest, messiest, most polarizing passion projects of the aughts. This is, as always, the way the world ends.

    Episode 7: Rollerball (1975) with Stephen

    With friends like these, who needs penalties? This week, with the aid of Batting Around cohost/accredited beefcake expert Stephen (@TangoGolfKilo), we cast an analytical eye at Norman Jewison's 1975 dystopian sports drama Rollerball. Yes, we figure out what Rollerball Twitter would be like; no, it is not good.
