Episode 429: Plump Fiction (1997)

Special Guest: Bob Koherr
Guest Co-Hosts: Chis Gore, Mike Sullivan

Based loosely on Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary’s indie darling, Plump Fiction (1997) stars Paul Dinello and Tommy Davidson as a salt and pepper hit man team. Dinello has been asked by his boss to take out the boss’s wife, Mimi Hungry (Julie Brown) to show her a good time. Their adventure brings them in contact with a handful of other Tarantino films as well as other independent movies of the day.

Mike Sullivan and Chris Gore stop by to discuss Plump Fiction, Chris's film My Big Fat Independent Movie and more. Writer/director Bob Koherr provides some history and behind-the-scenes stories of making the film and what it did for his career.

Special Guests: Myrna Sokoloff
Guest Co-Hosts: Mike Sullivan, Rob St. Mary

We’re looking at the Conservative comedy, An American Carol 2008. The child of Charles Dickens and Bill O'Reilly, the film tells the tale of Michael Malone -- a stand-in for filmmaker Michael Moore (Kevin P. Farley). He's a liberal know-nothing who’s inflamed hate against the Land that We Love and is visited by four ghosts -- well, three ghosts and a contemporary country singer -- to try and convince him to love country music and stop complaining about gun control, global warming, unjust wars, and other bleeding-heart liberal causes.

Directed by David Zucker (Airplane!, Top Secret), the film was co-written by , as a reaction to Hollywood intolerance.

Rob St. Mary returns to the show along with Mike Sullivan to discuss the film, satire, and falafels. This isn't a podcast, this is The Flintstones.

Note: The Thomas Jefferson joke is from Joe Machi.

This Italian film will curl the nosehairs on a dead nun. It's a "parody" of Jurassic Park but with chickens. Funny, no? No. Chicken Park comes to American shores courtesy of Jerry Calà, a national treasure in his homeland and scourge of anyone with a funny bone in the U.S.A.
