  • Beating a dead horse, we're continuing our 2-part Subgenre roundtable show! In this second part of our two-episode season finale, host Josh Dasal and return guest hosts - Playwright Allan Maule, TikTok influencer Charlotte Moore-Lambert, Oscar-nominated producer-writer Fabian Marquez, and producer and advertising director Nick Heim, continue through the paint-peeling asylum that is 12 Monkeys (1995), based on the French short film La Jetée (1962), and starring Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, and Madeline Stowe. Topics of discussion include popular movies of 1995, the meaning of "insurance", and why men need women to love the same movies they do.

  • We're back with another questionable Subgenre roundtable show! In this first of our two-episode season finale, host Josh Dasal and a who's that of return guest hosts - TikTok influencer Charlotte Moore-Lambert, playwright Allan Maule, producer and advertising director Nick Heim, and Oscar-nominated producer-writer Fabian Marquez - go more than a little nuts breaking down the Terry Gilliam global plague-meets-time travel flick, 12 Monkeys (1995), based on the French short film La Jetée (1962), and starring Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, and Madeline Stowe. Topics of discussion include butt scrubbing, half-hearted bondage, and all the things Terry Gilliam doesn't like. Look for Part 2 coming in two weeks!

  • In this episode of Subgenre, host Josh Dasal and return guest host, TikTokker and voice talent Charlotte Moore-Lambert, get ridiculous about an even more ludicrous premise - that may be the best time-twisting, serial killer comedy you've ever seen. It's science fiction writer H.G. Wells tracking Jack the Ripper in future America in the 1979 adventure-comedy-suspense film, Time After Time, directed by Nicholas Meyer, and starring Malcolm McDowell, Mary Steenburgen, and David Warner. Topics of discussion include free love, the perils of claiming to be Sherlock Holmes, and the joy of '70s sparkle effects.

  • In this highly unusual Subgenre episode, host Josh Dasal and his guest host, filmmaker NC Jones, get lost in one of the oddest time travel movies - heck, oddest movies - ever covered here, the 1979 Czech New Wave absurdist film, Tomorrow I'll Wake Up and Scald Myself with Tea, directed by Jindrich Polák. It's a space-age, time travel, doppleganger, Nazi-defeating love story set behind the Iron Curtain, with a theme song built for the club. Topics of discussion include actors playing twins, special effects magic, and how to avoid explaining how time travel works in a time travel film.

  • In this Subgenre episode, host Josh Dasal and his guest host, playwright Allan Maule, might need a whole body full of tattooed clues to untangle this film school favorite, the 2000 Christopher Nolan memory thriller, Memento, starring Guy Pearce, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Joe Pantoliano. It could be real, or it could all be in our minds. And there's not one John G. among us.

  • In our final episode of Season 2: Charming Thieves, we're continuing our roundtable show with part two of this two-part episode of Subgenre.

  • In this episode of Subgenre, host Josh Dasal and his first-time guest host, producer, advertising director, and Muppet afficionado Nick Heim, get felt up - [insert Statler and Waldorf laugh here] - as they release their nerdy perspectives on the 1981 high-fashion jewel heist in London romp, The Great Muppet Caper, directed by the puppet master himself, Jim Henson, and starring Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Charles Grodin, Diana Rigg, and a cast of hundreds. Topics of discussion include Henson and company's desire to elevate the craft of puppetry in movies, how a contest produced the movie's title, and the repetitive hilarity of Murphy beds and busting lightbulbs.

  • In this episode of Subgenre, host Josh Dasal and his guest host, screenwriter and Hollywood studio guy Steve Baumgartner, reach all the way back to the dawn of the French New Wave as they react to the 1956 French-language noir classic, Bob le flambeur, directed by esteemed filmmaker Jean-Pierre Melville, and starring film veteran Roger Duchesne and ingenue Isabelle Corey in a movie about down and outs dreaming big in the rough Paris district of Pigalle. Topics of discussion include what makes a great crime film, the French New Wave, and whether a heist film truly needs a heist in order to work for an audience.

Topics of discussion include the wide-ranging films of Sean Connery, getting actors to do their own stunts (even when they don't want to), and the most agonizingly slow 75-second count in movie history.
