Is this brand new show “an action-packed crowd-pleaser”? Give it a listen and find out! It sure is long, we’ll guarantee you that! The cold open deals with the year 1939. Then the show officially starts with all the news you can use coming out of Canada – the good, the bad and the so-called ugly! Your friends in podcasting then go deep into fine art and discuss the works of many great artists, before returning to the business of show and analyzing the current Disney lawsuit against the Federal Communications Commission and the record-setting 2026 box office performance by a beloved leading lady. Dean saw the 1953 sci-fi comedy The Twonky (if you have been listening regularly, you understand), and Phil follows up the brilliant horror double-bill he described last week with another logical pairing: Nicolas Roeg’s 1973 Don’t Look Now and Dario Argento’s 1977 Suspiria (with a little bit of Hitchock’s North by Northwest thrown in for good measure).

From free sex bungalows to Phil’s new monthly stage show, from two popular Netflix series to two Palme d’Or winning movies, from whisper quiet roller coasters to the proper pronunciation of the word “behemoth”, from a sci-fi cult film about a walking television from another dimension to appalling online attitudes expressed about the way popular entertainers look, it’s safe to say that this week’s show truly has something for everyone! So, pull up a chair, put on headphones, crank the volume and join Dean and Phil as they drop in on a Los Angeles City Council meeting, as they visit Universal Studios, as they go backstage at Skylight Theatre, and as they advocate for a world free of violence and full of right speech. We’re pretty sure it’s interesting. We have a sneaking suspicion it might be oddly inspiring. We know it’s utterly hilarious. And, oh, yeah, there are puppets!
