2026-01-16 20:28:16 +0000 UTCNever thought I'd hear you guys say "the day my butt went psycho". I don't think that's a millennial thing, my kids watched that (very young gen z). Reboot was awesome and iconic for us elder millennials😁

2026-01-16 20:27:37 +0000 UTCOnce again I will ask you to consider Apple TV’s ‘For All Mankind’. The latest season, which includes industrial action against the big corporation founded by the Obama/Musk mashup seems to offer rich terrain for you. Also, on Canadian children’s TV, I am of the Friendly Giant generation, which leaked across the border into Detroit. Ask your parents.

2026-01-08 15:10:27 +0000 UTCI forget the listener's name but thank you to whoever coined the phrase "mind palace cinema." I agree that's a great concept. I suggest that a strong example of mind palace cinema is Hudson Hawk, because it's a descent into the mind of Bruce Willis from that era. It's a showcase of everything Bruce loves: wacky adventures, singing, slapstick, but also his ego. He opened up his mind palace and invited the world in, and Daniel Waters and Michael Lehmann had the thankless task of being the tour guides. (I love Hudson Hawk.)

2026-01-05 20:16:31 +0000 UTCI'd like to apologize for how weird my question was, it was originally longer and more nuanced, but I cut it down significantly to fit in the time limit 😵💫 What I was originally planning on saying was: "weird question, but As a Canadian based podcast about film culture, I was curious if you had any insight into what exactly the deal is with Canadian children's cartoons a lot of the stuff I'm going to mention might be slightly after your guy's time, but I'm an American millennial my first exposure to canadian culture was when teletoon and Ytv shows started getting imported to the US, and began playing on stations like cartoon Network i liked a few of these shows (I like the early episodes of 6teen or Total drama Island) But hopefully it's not rude to say, that for whatever reason, a lot of Canadian animation that got brought over to the US ended up being kind of.... bad: Atomic Betty Johnny test Fugget about it Almost naked animals The Day My butt went psycho which are all real shows if you haven't heard of them Do you guys have any insight as to why alot of the shows that make their way here tend to be not very good, (why they all seemed to be animated rather cheaply), and do you happen to have any recommendations for underrated hidden gems that Americans might not know about. As someone who is interested in animation history, I feel bad that the majority of Canadian animation I am aware of is kind of trash, I know there has to be good stuff out there!! I really like Danny antonucci, i like a lot of Nelvana shows, i like dan vs, and rock and rule looks pretty cool, but i havent seen it Thanks a lot for listening" After I sent it I immediately regretted it and wished I had taken more time to rewrite it

2026-01-05 19:52:56 +0000 UTCLuke, if you're looking for season 4 of Babylon Berlin, it might be worth checking one of your local libraries. I was waiting so patiently for it to arrive on Netflix with the rest of the show--and I don't fully understand what's gone on with the distribution issues with Sky, etc.--and was happy to find season 4 was available to stream (borrow by episode with a cap of 4 per month or something) through my county library's subscription to Hoopla.
