Father Malone's Weekly Roundup - Coyote vs. Acme (2026)

It's been a long and tumultuous road for this Coyote to get justice from the megalithic Acme Corporation in court. The verdict? We win. Father Malone Pateron.com/FatherMalone linktr.ee/FatherMalone71

"Behind these eyes one finds only blackness, the absence of light. These are the eyes of a psychopath."

The last thing the world needs in 2026 is yet another Halloween film but, to be fair, the last thing the world needed in 2007 was yet another Halloween film, especially one directed by Rob Zombie. Given that the film does in fact exist, Movie Meltdown's Bryan Renfro joins the Kulturecast for the first time to talk all about the finer points of reboots, Rob Zombie, and a whole lot more in this oversized part one of a two part series covering the Zombie reboot series.

Required Viewing 02: Waterworld

It was the most expensive movie ever made, the punchline of a thousand headlines, and a flop so infamous it got its own nickname. This week on Required Viewing, we bail out Kevin Reynolds and Kevin Costner's Waterworld (1995) and study it from every angle — separating the film that's actually on screen from the runaway-budget legend that swallowed it whole. We get into Mad Max on the open ocean, the world-building that still holds up, Dennis Hopper chewing more scenery than the Smokers could ever burn, the environmental anxieties it was early to, and why a movie everyone "knows" was a disaster has quietly floated toward cult reappraisal. Was it the trainwreck history says, or did we all just enjoy watching it sink? Let's find dry land. Media scholar Dr. David D. Perlmutter and Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, navigate this one. New episodes every Thursday.

Required Viewing 01: Sideways

Two guys, a week in wine country, and a whole lot of avoidance. This week on Required Viewing, we uncork Alexander Payne's Sideways (2004) and study it from every angle — why a shaggy road-trip comedy about a failed novelist and a fading actor became the defining midlife-male-sadness movie of its era, and what it's really pouring underneath the pinot. We get into Payne's gift for making you laugh at people you'd never want to be, Miles as a portrait of self-sabotage dressed up as good taste, wine as the film's central metaphor (yes, that merlot line), and how a small character comedy quietly reshaped an entire industry. Great movie, terrible role models — let's swirl it around. Media scholar Dr. David D. Perlmutter and Chris Stachiw, Doctor of Podcasting, pour this one out. New episodes every Thursday.

9: Under Siege

Steven Seagal is one of the biggest action stars of the '90s, starring in some of the biggest action films of the decade. He ended up dropping off the radar completely in the early 2000s, being relegated to the Walmart bargain bins and truck stop DVD corners. Mainstream action fans all but forget his talents, but no longer. The Kulturecast's Chris Stachiw and film critic Trevor Gumbel are joined by Seagalogy's Vern to talk about his book, his favorite Seagal films, and Under Siege. Starring Seagal as an NYC cop, he must take down a local tough who has gone off on a drug-fueled killing spree. It takes him from the bars to the streets of '90s NYC as he attempts to thwart his murderous plans. On Seagal is on iTunes, Google Play, and all podcatcher apps; leave a review!

Required Viewing 00: Syllabus

Required Viewing: A 360° Film Study is a brand new sub-feed within The Kulturecast main feed where Dr. David D. Perlmutter and The Kulturecast's Doctor of Podcasting Chris Stachiw talk all about filmic topics through the lenses of a different film, tv series, or pop culture topic each Thursday. On this Episode Zero: Syllabus, the good doctors sit down to discuss the thesis behind the show, what might cause something to meet the criteria of "required viewing", and what you might expect to hear in the coming episodes of "Required Viewing: A 360° Film Study". ——— Every film says more than whether it was good. On Required Viewing: A 360° Film Study, media scholar Dr. David D. Perlmutter and Chris Stachiw, the Kulturecast's Doctor of Podcasting, take one movie apart from every angle — theme, craft, and cultural fallout — and throw out the star-ratings entirely.
