This week Oren (accidentally) brings something nasty to the Banned Things table with the 1987 West German horror film Nekromantik. He said he thought it as a comedy. It definitely wasn’t. Come along for the ride as our hosts try to process what might be the second most romantic film about…
Episode 32 – Day of the Dead (1985)
It’s starting to look like Zombie Month with yet another zombie film in the Banned Things queue, this time the 1985 George Romero film Day of the Dead. Oren and Todd break down this very goopy, gory movie with their usual wit and insight, though they were both wrong about…
Episode 31 – 2 Live Crew (Nasty As They Wanna Be)
Oren and Todd do their first episode looking at a banned piece of music, with guest coast Dave Coalmine along for the ride. Just how nasty was the album Nasty As They Wanna Be? Well, you’ll have to tune in to find out, but it’s probably pretty nasty. Also, be sure…
Episode 30 – Brain Dead (or Deadalive)
This week Oren and Todd settle in with a film that reaches new heights of gore that’s from the director of The Lord of The Rings Trilogy, Peter Jackson. Brain Dead (or, as it was known in North America, Deadalive) it’s been banned in places like Germany and South Korea….
Episode 29 – Gravity Falls
We’ve had a few weeks off and now Oren and Todd are back with something a bit more mellow — a look at the Disney XD show Gravity Falls. What, that’s been banned!? Well, no, but it’s been censored, and that’s close enough for us this week. Plus, Oren takes…
Episode 28 – Monty Python’s The Life of Brian (Live)
We completed our epic Easter cross-over event with a live episode featuring Todd, Oren, and Carlo Sia from Half-Cut Conspiracies to discuss a film that probably shouldn’t have been that controversial but actually was, Monty Python’s The Life of Brian from 1979. Hope you all had a great holiday!
Episode 27 – The Last Temptation of Christ
Here it is, part one of our special Easter Crossover Event, with special guest Carlo Sia of Half-Cut Conspiracies here to help us take a look at Martin Scorsese’s most controversial film, The Last Temptation of Christ. Is it a film about a man’s struggle to be good despite the temptation…
Episode 26 – Dr. Seuss Gets Cancelled
Wait, has Dr. Seuss been cancelled!? Well, no, not really, but Todd and Oren decided to take a look at five of the six books that are being removed from publication by Dr. Seuss Enterprises. And while there are a few images here that are somewhat problematic, this episode still…
Episode 25 – The Turner Diaries (Finale)
Did you miss the live wrap-up of The Turner Diaries? Don’t fret! We’ve got the recorded version of it right here! It’s exactly the same as the live version, except you can’t phone in anymore. We talk about racism. We make some announces. There are special guests. It’s a good…
Episode 24 – The Turner Diaries (Part Three)
It’s over. They’ve done it. Oren and Todd have made it to the end of The Turner Diaries which, they hope, is the worst thing they’ll ever have to experience as part of this podcast. And boy, did this part of the book give them a lot to dig through,…
