Episode 213: RAD & GLEAMING THE CUBE w/ Reject

I know, I know, you are asking your podcast player of choice out loud, right now, “WHY IS CHRIS REJECT BACK?” Well, it is simply because we love him. Also, LVAC is having some cool sales right now, so get some stuff printed, will yah?? On this extreme sport filled episode, Reject joins us to discuss two tubular films, Rad [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091817/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_1_nm_7_in_0_q_rad] and Gleaming the Cube [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097438/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_gleaming]. Look, as much as we like to bust on Chris, the reality is he is a great dude who does great work, and you should make him feel cool by checking out LVAC [https://www.xlvacx.com/], or DRYROTT [https://merchbin.net/collections/dry-rot], or SQUARE OF OPPOSITION [https://store.squareofopposition.com/collections/sofo-releases], or whatever.

Kinda. On this episode, we do our usual Wack and On Track and we spend a bit more time discussing the ways DHS is being used to terrorize innocent people. I want to link to a charity, or a community organization, or an ICE WATCH group, but you should probably find a local one to you. I know things are hard right now; do not give up, we can do this together. Like I said, patronize any one of Chris’s scams — I mean, businesses — and let him know we sent yah so he stops harassing us all the time. Thanks friends, love you.

Episode 212: MIKEY AND NICKY (76)

HOW CAN IT BE? ANTHER DOWN ON THE STREETS EPISODE OF THE INFAMOUS CINEPUNX PODCAST? On this episode we get into a conversation discussing Mikey and Nicky [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074901/], the 1976 Elaine May written and directed film that sits at the junctions of crime films, buddy films, and crushing tragedies. Josh Cassavetes and Peter Falk really make this film incredible and we spend a chunk of time parsing out what makes this classic Philly film so great. [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/MV5BMTQ1MDA3NTM1N15BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwMzQwMzM2NjE%40._V1_.jpg?resize=1021%2C600&ssl=1] [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/BpuONQ75jUQiHZH8qkBZQb5e5n33QC_original.jpg?resize=1067%2C600&ssl=1] We also spend some time lamenting the fascist take over of the country, discussing some recent cinema, and Josh reminds me of the band I was in during college. It is a cavalcade of unjustified nostalgia and questionable critical insight. Our opener song is of course CROSSED KEYS and the break song is from the band Josh discusses during the episode. NOT GORGEOUS. Ok I think that is it- Thanks for listening!

Shame List Picture Show S9E20 — Christmas Movies feat. Alonso Duralde

Season 9, Episode 20 (Originally released on December 24th, 2025) Hello and welcome to our annual Christmas celebration of The Shame List Picture Show. A Christmas episode has been a tradition since the show’s very first season, and Nick and Michael both felt it was important to keep that tradition alive. It’s the signal that one season is ending, but another is just around the corner. This week, Michael is joined by SLPS co-creator Nick Richard, along with a very special guest: Alonso Duralde. In addition to being a film critic and podcaster, Alonso is a devoted Christmas movie lover, and his book Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas has just been reissued in a brand-new, updated edition. Together, we cover a wide range of topics, including the Hallmark/Netflix cycle of Christmas films, what actually makes a movie a Christmas movie, our favorite holiday films, and—of course—the eternal question: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Be sure to check out the newest edition of Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas, and please have a wonderful and safe holiday. https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/have-yourself-a-movie-little-christmas.jpg?ssl=1 Be sure to check out our Patreon at www.patreon.com/shamelistpictureshow [http://www.patreon.com/shamelistpictureshow] Edited by: Austin Proctor Produced by: Michael Viers Theme Music by: Austin Proctor Opening Narration by: Nick Richards http://www.zachmclainmedia.net/Credits Music by: Ten-Speed [https://tenspeedmusic.bandcamp.com/] Logo Design by: Amanda Viers [https://amandaviers.com/]

Episode 211: MIDNIGHT RUN & RUNNING ON EMPTY w/ Black Guy Fawkes

CINEPUNX RETURNS FOR THE HOLIDAY SEASON!! On this incredible new episode, we discussed two films recommended by Paul Thomas Anderson, Midnight Run and Running on Empty. Joining us on this cinematic adventure is Blavk Guy Fawkes aka Ian Robinson, and we were delighted to talk to him [https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/IMG_5204.jpeg?resize=720%2C480&ssl=1][https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/IMG_5207.webp?resize=570%2C386&ssl=1]I won’t waste your time with more apologies about our huge break. If you listen to the episode, you’ll hear why it’s been such a long gap between episodes and there’s some good reasons there but also we’ve just been enjoying life. On top of that it’s the holidays so I have things to do for family and quite honestly my laptop is broken again so until I get that fixed, I won’t be typing anything. You’re reading this from my voice to text! Thanks for keeping the faith Thanks for listening!

Shame List Picture Show S9E19 — Frankenstein feat. Jason Hillman

Season 9, Episode 19 (Originally released on December 18th, 2025) Hello and welcome to another episode of The Shame List Picture Show. Today, Jason Hillman returns to the pod to talk Frankenstein — not just Guillermo del Toro’s latest opus, but the monster and myth across its many adaptations. Michael and Jason wax philosophically on what works (and doesn’t) in Frankenstein on film. Spoiler: Michael is far more forgiving than Jason. One point of total agreement, however, is their shared love for Kenneth Branagh’s Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. We dig into all of it.
