In this first of our two-episode season finale, host Josh Dasal and a who's that of return guest hosts - TikTok influencer Charlotte Moore-Lambert, playwright Allan Maule, producer and advertising director Nick Heim, and Oscar-nominated producer-writer Fabian Marquez - go more than a little nuts breaking down the Terry Gilliam global plague-meets-time travel flick, 12 Monkeys (1995), based on the French short film La Jetée (1962), and starring Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, and Madeline Stowe. Topics of discussion include butt scrubbing, half-hearted bondage, and all the things Terry Gilliam doesn't like. Look for Part 2 coming in two weeks!

Time After Time [S03E07]
In this episode of Subgenre, host Josh Dasal and return guest host, TikTokker and voice talent Charlotte Moore-Lambert, get ridiculous about an even more ludicrous premise - that may be the best time-twisting, serial killer comedy you've ever seen. It's science fiction writer H.G. Wells tracking Jack the Ripper in future America in the 1979 adventure-comedy-suspense film, Time After Time, directed by Nicholas Meyer, and starring Malcolm McDowell, Mary Steenburgen, and David Warner. Topics of discussion include free love, the perils of claiming to be Sherlock Holmes, and the joy of '70s sparkle effects.

Customer Reviews
Digging the details of movie microcategories
Binge seasons of the fun, chatty Subgenre and you can’t help but pick up expertise in very specific corners of the cinematic universe. Crime movies? War movies? Too basic. Gentleman Thief pictures? Cinema de submarine? *That’s* more like it. Each episode finds the smart and affable Josh Dasal hashing over anything from a cornerstone to an outlier within that season’s theme, joined by a fellow film enthusiast who’s always engaging and informed (and, upon occasion, me. So, y’know … I know whereof I speak. /g) With a touch of trivia and historical context, Subgenre will have you revisiting favorites and discovering their lesser-known cousins. It’s a good hang.
Das Boot podcasts were totally engrossing & a blast!
The podcasts about Das Boot were absolutely fantastic. I’m a big film nerd, and I loved the way Josh and Steve did a deep dive (LOL) on all the lovely details, including the production, cultural significance, industry importance, characters, story arc, and careers of the cast and crew. Wow. What a treat. The the host and guest have a flowing, witty, obsessive energy that’s very appealing. I was totally engrossed throughout and am looking forward to listening to past and future episodes.
Must have podcast for the movie lover
Josh approaches movies with knowledge, detail, and pure fun. If you like to dive in (pub intended) on subgenres of film this podcast is for you!
