Hey gang,
Apparently, Libsyn can’t post our episodes to the blog anymore. In fact, they claim they never could, which is super strange because they have been the entire time we’ve had this blog. So I’m looking into it to see if I can find a work-around to make it post again.
For all three of you who follow us, that is. š

Cause we care and shit.
Hi friends,
We’re doing another theme month in October. This time, we’re doing Directors Who Aren’t Directing. These will be movies features people who typically sit in the director’s chair, but are only acting this time around. An example would be Eli Roth in “Inglorious Basterds” or anytime one of Edgar Wright’s director friends have a cameo in his movies. If you have any suggestions for us, please tweet them to us or post them on our Facebook page. That would be SUPER.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!
SHUT UP! Paul Heath returns to the podcast and this time, he’s in the room with Kyle in LA! It’s magical, it’s wonderful! Spoiler alert: we go off on many a tangent and countless sidebars are begged. It’s the type of episode you’ve always dreamed of. Minus the naked lady Bond villains.
Listen on Monday, God DAMNIT!
Also listen to the Pharos Project and Hammer Horror Podcasts
Returning guest and other half of the Battleship Pretension Podcast is our ol’ pal Tyler Smith. Commercials are despised and BatmanĀ is discussed. Basically the best time you could possibly have on Monday.
Get ready.
It’s a mixture of charming befuddlement, bagpipery, and defiled religious relics when we watch Ken Russell’s 1988 pseudo-horror movieĀ The Lair of the White Worm. The Twelfth Doctor himself, Peter Capaldi, is in it. So how does that fit you? Also Hugh Grant, and a woman who is a snake person. I mean, it’s pretty cool.
If you’d like to watch the trailer, click on the hyperlink like we’ve all been taught to do from a very early age.
Also, watch Lincoln’s “The World Without Christmas” because they’re quite good.

Scent and memory are a funny thing. Itās amazing how you can be minding your own business, pass by someone on the street who is wearing the same cologne your boyfriend in 8th grade wore, and suddenly youāre in his basement in the darkā¦sitting on the floor playing Mario Kart on a Nintendo 64. For real. Get your mind out of the gutter. We were only 13!
This morning, I reached up to grab my hairspray only to find out that the can was empty. If you know me, you know that this is somewhat of a tragedy. Iām a girl who loves her hairspray. Thinking I might have some squirreled away somewhere, I dug around in the drawer where I keep spare toothpaste and contact solution and came out with a bottle Iāve had for a while. Several years ago, I was Betty Draper for Halloween and tried toā¦

Itās our two year anniversary!!!! Holy crap! That weāve stuck it out this long is truly phenomenal. Kyle owes someone some money for this podcast still existing. At any rate, as they did last year with the two-part John Carpenter retrospective, Lincoln and Kyle are joined by Paul Heath from The Pharos ProjectĀ and Robert Walker, creator of Victorian Cut-Out Theatre, for a talk about the Evil DeadĀ series of films by Sam Raimi and the recent reboot/remake/reimagining by Fede Alvarez. This is a long and meandering question which also touches on the RobocopĀ trailer, āVideo Nasties,ā reboots versus remakes versus reimaginings, and a whole lot of puns and things. Yay!
Thanks for listening for two years! Hereās to at least two more!
Follow Paul on Twitter, and listen to the Pharos Project
Follow Rob on Twitter, and watch Victorian Cut-Out Theatre

This week, itās a very special, rather meandering episode in which our heroes discuss Edgar Wrightās newly completed Cornetto Trilogy [consisting of Shaun of the DeadĀ (2004), Hot FuzzĀ (2007), and The Worldās End(2013)] and how they relate to their friendship and their dumb student films. It also gets a bit spoilery toward the end, so a warning to those who havenāt seen the final chapter. Beyond that, the fellas discuss new releases Blue JasmineĀ and The Spectacular NowĀ as well as old garbage The IslandĀ and The Day After Tomorrow. Itās a good time all around.
Next week, itās the 2 Year Anniversary special in which Kyle and Lincoln are joined by friends of the show Paul Heath and Rob Walker to discuss the Evil DeadĀ films. Get ready for that, and donāt go readinā any fleshbound books.
FANFARE! Itās our 100th episode! Hooray! Whoād have thought weād ever get this far? Certainly not us. Itās blatant self-congratulation as Kyle and Lincoln count down their top five episodes, top five movies, and bottom five movies in the nearly two-year history of the rambly, shambly podcast you know as this one. On top of this, thereās yet another edition of āWhat the Fuck is That From?!ā in which things donāt go any better than it normally does. Kyle also lets you in on a brand new, catch-all remedy for everything. Itās going to be a thing.
We wish to thank everyone who has listened to us blab over this century of podcasting (thatās how it works, right?), those whoāve listened to everything, and those who have only just joined us. We love you all and couldnāt and wouldnāt do it without you. Neato, gang!
