William Fruet’s exploitation film is considerably better than you’d expect, considering it was trashed on its release, lashed as the other film with touring prints of Last House On The Left, and fell into relative obscurity. It’s all due to some strong character work and great acting.

Dawn Of The Dead

Wrong Way, from 1972, is a fairly grim softcore sexploitation film that features drugs, hippies and rape. It managed to get a theatrical release in the UK, but only with all the sex scenes cut out of it. It’s now lost to obscurity.

Wrong Way

A classic film that was unloved when it first came out. This looks specifically at what made the film a bit of a flop when it was released and cult classic when it reach VHS. Plus a little bit about the BBFC knocking back Gestapo’s Last Orgy again.

This is my first experience with Christopher Brown, stubbling onto this podcast by researching video nasties, and i am happy to have done so. Chris not only digs deep into the film, but also why it ended up on the bannned list. This is a great way to learn about a time in film history where censorship was in full force. Being from the United States the video nasties list isn&#39;t general knowledge and it was a treat to get some more info from a fellow fan&#39;s perspective.

An entertaining ride into sleaze and grim.

Another recent podcast discovery. Seems the brits are doing some outstanding genre podcasting of late.  Hrad to believe a so-called democracy would actually imprison someone over a horror film, but there you go. Anyways, really enjoyed your Night Gallery podcasts Mr. Brown, just as I&#39;m enjoying these very interesting bits of UK horror history.

You don't have to like tennis to like this. There is so much to learn from how this rivalry made each player better. This series explores the unique tennis rivalry between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal-- two very different players, both exceptional, in pursuit of perfection. Swiss-born Roger Federer was seemingly born with a racquet in his hand and at a young age he quickly masters the game, but what he needs to reach the top is to learn how to master his emotions. Meanwhile, Spaniard Rafael Nadal learns the game under the tutelage of his uncle Toni on the clay courts of Mallorca, where the decision to make him a left-handed player separates him early from his competition.

Roger Ailes started Fox News and is described by many as one of the main drivers of the polarisation of US politics. 
If you don't know about Ailie you should. A great place to start is the ShowTime miniseries "The Loudest Voice". 
This interview is with Joe Lindsley who worked directly for Ailes for 2 years. 
"Very earlier on, Roger called me Ailes Junior. He told my dad, 'I've never met anyone more like me than Joe.'" As the protégé of Fox News chairman Roger Ailes, Joe Lindsley was closer to the man who built Fox News than any Fox executive.
Lindsley recounts how Ailes would routinely ask him to change media coverage of stories based on 'who is good and bad' and how Ailes said 'there is no such thing as truth'. 
This interview corroborates much of the TV miniseries "The Loudest Voice".

As the protégé of Fox News chairman Roger Ailes, Joe Lindsley was closer to the man who built Fox News than any Fox executive. He helped write Ailes' speeches, sat next to him at executive meetings, and went to church with his family on Sundays.
