  • S4E3 Livin' the Dream feat. Ngaio Bealum w/ Tampopo (1985) and The Incredible Mr. Limpet (64)
    2025/03/06
    Cannabis comic Ngaio Bealum is back and we are livin' the dream with a pair of movies about strivers who live their dreams, and their dreams are really friggin' weird. First, Nobuko Miyamoto is a single mom with dreams of making the greatest ramen in all of Japan and Tsutomu Yamazaki is the cowboy trucker who is going help her achieve her dream in TAMPOPO, a "ramen western" from director Juzo Itami in 1985. This movie is filled with surreal tangents, tasty-looking food and a fair amount of freaky sex! Describing the plot does not do it justice. It's also hilarious. One of Ngaio's all-time favorites, you'll definitely want the strain--and ramen--recommendations for this one. And then Don Knotts turns into a fish AND fights the Nazis in THE INCREDIBLE MR. LIMPET, a half-animated, half-live-action cross between "The Little Mermaid" and "Hogan's Heroes" from Warner Bros. "Why does Captain America have to be a fish," Ngaio asks, and there really isn't an explanation except that Don Knotts has "fish rizz" according to Philena. So glad Greg could make it for this one so he could talk about classic animators Bill Tytla and Robert McKimson who shaped the amazing cartoon sequences of this baffling maritime classic. We go a little long in the opening segment where we discuss the "fan" reaction to the new-look Shrek, the upcoming release of the animated THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP with Porky Pig and Daffy Duck, and Philena's culty new job + Bob finally saw THE SUBSTANCE! Next month: EASTER 420 with JESUS CHRIST SUPER STAR (Hippy Jesus) and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL (Space Jesus). Subscribe so you don't miss it.

  • S4E2 David Lynch Tribute w/ The Grandmother (1970) & The Wizard of Oz (39)
    2025/02/16
    David Lynch left this world on Jan. 16, 2025 at a time when we were all coping with way too much tragedy. While Lynch's drugs of choice were coffee and cigarettes (along with griddle cakes drenched in maple syrup), we pay tribute to him by pairing weed with a selection of his short films and THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939), a movie he was so obsessed with that there's a whole documentary about it. For Lynch's short films, we mostly focus on THE GRANDMOTHER (1970), a 33-minute student film where an abused boy cultivates his own grandma out of a disgusting tree he grows in his bedroom, kind of like using hydroponics to grow weed in your closet. How we didn't make this joke during the episode, we'll never know, but we're doing it now--kinda. Philena was way into both versions of THE AMPUTEE (1974), where Catherine Coulson (the Log Lady from TWIN PEAKS) writes angry breakup letters while a nurse dresses the gushing wound from her severed leg. Because Lynch never gave up on the short film as a means of expression, Bob brings up the more recent WHAT DID JACK DO? (2017) where Lynch trades cliches with a tormented monkey who has the hots for a chicken named Toototabon. THE GRANDMOTHER and THE AMPUTEE are streaming on Criterion Channel, and WHAT DID JACK DO? is streaming on Netflix. And for the WIZARD OF OZ (1939), Greg goes that extra dad rock mile by muting the volume and playing Pink Floyd's DARK SIDE OF THE MOOON over it because somebody had to do it, and that somebody is GREG FRANKLIN. Greg had to leave a little early, so there's a lot of him at the front of this discussion for all you Franklin fanatics out there. We do talk about Alexandre O. Philippe's documentary LYNCH/OZ (2022), but THE WIZARD OF OZ is too big a phenomenon to see it only through that prism. So we discuss the movie's tortured production, the Culver City little person fuck fest that was the Munchkin Land shoot, and the sheer artistry of the MGM musical fantasy classic. From the makeup to the music, where do you begin? Where do you stop? Well, Cory, Bob and Philena stopped by marveling at the tremendous acting ability of Terry, the Cairn Terrier who played Toto. Man, that dog was amazing. THE WIZARD OF OZ is streaming on Max. It's not HBO. It's just Max. Since this is our last episode before the 97th Academy Awards on March 2nd, we offer our Oscar gripes more than our predictions. Bob watched "Emilia Pérez" so you don't have to. There's also much praise for The Substance and three out of four of our intrepid hosts call out the Academy for not nominating the best movie of the year, HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS. What gives Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences??? Be back next month when cannabis comic and regular guest Ngaio Bealum joins of for TAMPOPO (1985) and THE INCREDIBLE MR. LIMPET (1964).

  • S4E1 Cory's Stony Hang Movies w/ Cisco Pike (1971) & Arnold's Wrecking Co. (73)
    2025/01/23
    As this new year is hurled upon us, Cory decided we need to slow things down a bit with what he calls "stony hang movies," AKA movies that are actually about weed for a change. While we have featured movies with Vincent Price mainlining LSD, we have somehow avoided the subject of cannabis itself in the selection of our films altogether, so Cory curated this double feature from the depths of Tubi and Roku's catalogs. In our first movie, Gene Hackman is a crooked LA cop who forces burnt-out rock star Cisco Pike (Kris Kristofferson) to sell 100 keys of primo weed in just 36 hours in CISCO PIKE from Columbia in 1971. This forgotten gem boasts an amazing cast all the way around with Karen Black (FIVE EASY PIECES, TRILOGY OF TERROR) as Cisco's long-suffering girlfriend and Harry Dean Stanton as Cisco's former bandmate. As Cisco makes his way through amazing and sadly gone Los Angeles locations in his frantic quest to unload these bricks of shake, he runs into counterculture characters played by Roscoe Lee Brown, Viva, Joy Bang (MESSIAH OF EVIL), Antonio Fargas (Huggy Bear from STARSKY AND HUTCH), Severn Darden (BATTLE FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES), and Allan Arbus (M*A*S*H). Don't get too stoned like Philena. Keep it mellow for this one. Streaming on Prime Video and the Roku Channel And then we have the somewhat less lustrous ARNOLD'S WRECKING CO. (1973) where the annoying cousin Arnold makes marijuana into big business in this satire that may be the worst movie we've ever featured on the podcast. We're going to save most of the commentary on this one for the podcast itself, but it's the brainchild of writer/director/star Steven E. de Souza who went on to write the screenplays for DIE HARD (1988) and 48 HOURS (1982). Now streaming on tubi and Pluto. Cory and Philena give their accounts of the Los Angeles fires, and our speculation on what will happen to TikTok is already woefully out-of-date, but we left it in there anyway (it's worse than we imagined folks). Plus Greg finally gives in to the joys of tubi, and we got listener mail from actual listeners! Thanks for reaching out everybody. We talk a little bit about the passing of David Lynch, but we're saving our love for this artist for our tribute episode to him next month where we discuss the short films of his that are on Criterion Channel, and THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939), a film he was so obsessed with that there's an entire documentary about its influence on him. Please subscribe so you don't miss that one. Hosts: Cory Sklar, Bob Calhoun, Philena Franklin, Greg Franklin Old Movies for Young Stoners by Chaki the Funk Wizard. Used with permission.
