Special Report: I'm Gonna Git You Sucka! (1988)

Special Guests: Antonio Fargas, Peter McCarthy
Guest Co-Host: Chris Cummins

Keenan Ivory Wayans's I'm Gonna Git You Sucka (1988) is at once a parody of and follow-up to Blaxploitation films of the 1970s. In it, Wayans stars as Jack Spade, the new blood trying to take down Mr. Big (John Vernon) with a team of classic heroes like John Slade (Bernie Casey), Hammer (Isaac Hayes), Slammer (Jim Brown), Kung Fu Joe (Steve James) and Fly Guy (Antonio Fargas).

Chris Cummins joins Mike to discuss the film. Special guests include actor Antonio Fargas (Putney Swope, Cleopatra Jones) and producer Peter McCarthy (Tapeheads, Roadside Prophets).

Episode 22: Tapeheads

Special Guests: Bill Fishman, Peter McCarthy
Guest Co-Host: Skizz Cyzyk

Let's get into trouble, baby! It's time to look at the 1988 film Tapeheads starring John Cusack, Tim Robbins, and a whole heck of a lot of other people in remarkable cameo roles (Mike Nesmith, Jello Biafra, King Cotton, Susan Tyrell, Courtney Love, etc). Follow as Josh (Robbins) and Ivan (Cusack) form Video Aces, a video production company that makes its bones shooting funerals, pet seances, wills, commercials and, inevitably, music videos.

Mike talks to the Tapeheads director Bill Fishman and co-writer Peter McCarthy. Along for the ride this week is commentator Skizz Cyzyk , a real live video ace.
