Dean and Phil are fighting to restore full functionality to YOUR Chillpak Hollywood Hour, they are preparing to attend a convention in Rhode Island from April 26 thru the 28th (https://x-filersunited.com), they are watching several very good recent movies, they are mourning the loss of many music greats and you can hear all about it AND about Dean’s return to stand-up comedy, as well as an update on a certain graphic novel, in this week’s brand new episode!

Has there ever been a more wild and free-wheeling grab bag of topics on a single installment of YOUR Chillpak Hollywood Hour as there is on this week’s show? Consider the topics discussed:

The mysterious death of Thomas Kinkade, the occult meaning of words and symbols, Dean Haglund running a 5K race, the legacy of Mike Wallace, the films of Guy Maddin, the latest in the MPAA’s battle with The Weinstein Company over the rating of Bully. All that, plus your friends in podcasting weigh in on a documentary about Comic-con, a Woody Allen drama, a John Cassavetes classic, two great, award-winning independent films from last year (one from the UK, one from South Korea). And on top of all of that, we even have a brand new theme song by The B-Film Extras!
