    Qs and Tease with Stewart Parker

    Josh touches on the first round of listener feedback, his appearance on Movie Night Extravaganza to discuss Jackie Brown, and then talks briefly about this week's guest. Then Josh and Sean sit down with the best fine art handler in all of Austin (and maybe the world) Stewart Parker. We dive into what life was like before we all had the internet in our hands at all times, what it was like growing up in Odessa with a single mom who was a movie nut, and the inability of the pre-internet male to just throw away his smut, much of which ties into the film we're covering next week, which everyone grew up with a relationship to but only one of Stewart, Sean, and Josh felt like they remembered pretty well. Next week's film can be found on all VOD platforms, Tubi, and Archive.org. Stewart Parker's business, Parker Art Handling, can be found on Instagram and at its website: parkerarthandling.com. All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Fried Green Tomatoes with Gabe Joyner of SVU Pod: Especially Heinous - Main Event

    With Gabe Joyner of SVU Pod: Especially Heinous making herself comfortable in our guest's seat again this week, we grab the cellophane and hop a train to Alabama, where we'll just have to hope Chris O'Donnell isn't torn from our lives in the messiest way possible by the mode of transportation around which our lives now rotate. Along the way, we'll furtively fall in love with the Marys, but not in a way that anyone will explicitly know because Hollywood can't handle it. What Hollywood CAN handle, however, is a little cannibalism played for comedy, which sends us down some dark paths played for laughs. So come on down to the Whistle Stop Cafe with us and get yourselves some of the titular delicacy from the 1991 female empowerment through cannibalism and queer-coded romance Fried Green Tomatoes, starring Oscar-winners Kathy Bates and Jessica Tandy alongside ingenues Mary Stuart Masterson and Mary-Louise Parker. Fried Green Tomatoes can be found on Amazon Prime through the end of June. Gabe Joyner can be found on Instagram, Threads, and her tattoo shop.  SVU Pod: Especially Heinous is on hiatus, but can be found on Patreon, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and everywhere else podcasts are available.  All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Qs and Tease with Gabe Joyner of SVU Pod: Especially Heinous

    Sean and Josh get back together to talk for the first time in a couple months, catching up on what's been happening since the last episode of Season Two, including talking about Josh's appearance on Movie Night Extravaganza to discuss Jackie Brown. After getting that out of the way, they sit down with the inimitable Gabe Joyner, tattoo artist extraordinaire and co-host of SVU Pod: Especially Heinous, discussing growing up in Wisconsin, making friends while stabbing them over and over with needles, blonde facial hair, and next week's film which seemed like it was ever-present in the early '90s. Next week's film can be found on Amazon Prime through the end of June. Gabe Joyner can be found on Instagram, Threads, and her tattoo shop.  SVU Pod: Especially Heinous is on hiatus, but can be found on Patreon, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and everywhere else podcasts are available.  All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Space Jam with Maayan Olshan - Main Event

    New father (congrats on #2!) and parkour/mindset coach, Maayan Olshan joins the pod to proselytize about the 1996 Michael Jordan/Looney Tunes flick, Space Jam. While Maayan can't get enough of this treasured childhood mainstay, Josh and Sean had no childhood affinity for the film. Would his unbridled passion for all Bugs and Co. transfer to the hosts? Would they take issue with the film's plot or lack thereof? Did an entire film relying upon a very famous non-actor hamstring the film or was Michael Jordan's magnetism enough to overcome such a thing? Is this film entirely Stan's dying fever dream after falling head first onto concrete? There's only one way to get the answer to these and so many more questions, and that's to check out this installment of the Unkind Rewind. Space Jam can currently be streamed on Netflix. Maayan Olshan can be found on Instagram, Threads, TikTok, and Beacons. As talked about in the first half... Conan Neutron's just released tour dates can be found here. Our Beastmaster guest Jeremy Steen's Oscar talk can be read at Referential.

    Qs and Tease with Maayan Olshan

    After wrapping things up on Gymkata and Pump Up the Volume, Sean and Josh sit down with our next guest Maayan Olshan to talk parkour, being a new father, mindset coaching, and about his childhood with movies. That includes a youth spent loving a very popular film that neither Sean nor Josh saw until well into their adulthood, for podcasting. And congrats on the second kiddo, Maayan! Next week's film can currently be streamed on Netflix. Maayan Olshan can be found on Instagram, Threads, TikTok, and Beacons. As talked about in the first half...

    Pump Up the Volume with Conan Neutron - Main Event

    Sean and Josh talk all things Pump Up the Volume with Conan Neutron, of the weekly podcasts Conan Neutron's Protonic Reversal and Movie Night Extravaganza and of the rock band Conan Neutron & the Secret Friends, whose brand new album The Way of the Neutron dropped this week and can be streamed or purchased on Bandcamp. Conan hadn't seen Pump Up the Volume in at least 30 years, so how would his fond memories of the film hold up? Would the fap-heavy humor grate on his nerves? Did Christian Slater's performance veer too heavily into Jack Nicholson impersonation territory or would he give a surprisingly nuanced performance? Was Allan Moyle's film as transgressive as feared or more progressive than one might have thought? The answer to these and so many more questions lie within this episode of the Unkind Rewind. Pump Up the Volume is hard to find outside of physical media, presumably because of its soundtrack, but *pssst* it can be found on the Internet Archive.  Conan Neutron's links are as follows:  - Conan Neutron’s Protonic Reversal - Music Interview Podcast - https://www.protonicreversal.com/ - Caterwaul - Yearly 4 Day Music Festival - Minneapolis, MN - https://caterwaul.org/ - Movie Night Extravaganza - Fast Moving Movie Discussion Show -  https://www.movienightextravaganza.com/ - Conan Neutron & the Secret Friends - Rock Band: Neutron/Crover/Ash - https://www.neutronfriends.com/ - And Conan Neutron & the Secret Friend's new album can be streamed/purchased here: https://neutronfriends.bandcamp.com/album/the-way-of-the-neutron Conan can be found on social media at: Instagram, BlueSky, Letterboxd, Facebook, Threads, and Twitter All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Qs and Tease with musician/podcaster Conan Neutron

    After dispatching of last week's film Gymkata from atop a pair of pommel horses at the village's center, Sean and Josh sit down with Conan Neutron, of the weekly podcasts Conan Neutron's Protonic Reversal and Movie Night Extravaganza and of the rock band Conan Neutron & the Secret Friends, whose brand new album The Way of the Neutron drops on March 20th and can currently be partially streamed on Bandcamp. In our getting to know you session with Conan, we dig into his life as a musician, his forays into podcasting, and his youth spent in less glamorous parts of California. We also get to the bottom of what he remembers about a seminal youth-in-revolt tale that announces the arrival of the 1990s and presages the medium you're devouring right now.  Next week's film is hard to find outside of physical media, presumably because of its soundtrack, but *pssst* it can be found on the Internet Archive.  Conan Neutron's links are as follows:  - Conan Neutron’s Protonic Reversal - Music Interview Podcast - https://www.protonicreversal.com/ - Caterwaul - Yearly 4 Day Music Festival - Minneapolis, MN - https://caterwaul.org/ - Movie Night Extravaganza - Fast Moving Movie Discussion Show -  https://www.movienightextravaganza.com/ - Conan Neutron & the Secret Friends - Rock Band: Neutron/Crover/Ash - https://www.neutronfriends.com/ Conan can be found on social media at: Instagram, BlueSky, Letterboxd, Facebook, Threads, and Twitter All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.

    Gymkata with Greg Schaum - Main Event

    Greg Schaum--former Royals post-game radio host, baseball advisor/agent, Director of Player Development, and current Partner and Director of Sports Recruiting at Klutch MFM--joins us to look back at the film he grew up loving that boldly asked the question: What if we took an Olympic-level athlete who may or may not be charismatic enough to carry a major motion picture and tried to turn him into a martial arts movie star, complete with an entirely new discipline built around his legitimately impressive skillset? Did Kurt Thomas earn his Razzie nomination? Were background actors maimed while making this film? Was said maiming committed to celluloid? Did production seriously just hire out their extras from an asylum and compensate them with a buffet and alcohol? The answers to these and so many other questions lie within this triumphant episode of the Unkind Rewind. Gymkata is available on most VOD platforms, but it can also be found on the Internet Archive. You. Should. Watch. It. Greg Schaum can be found at his company's website: Klutch MFM And on social media at: Instagram, Facebook, Threads, Twitter, and BlueSky All music in the show was composed by Divorcio Suave.  Josh Duggan can also be heard with co-host Adam Schwitters on the seminal Law & Order: SVU podcast, Munch My Benson.
