Bonus: Madonna Movie-cast (Part II) - Dick Tracy15 Mar 202600:39:19

What's so intriguing about Dick? Sure, it's bursting with color and cartoon villains, but is it really for kids? Perhaps there's a quiet layer of mid-life emptiness lurking under the primary lights, snazzy costumes, Madonna's torch songs—along with her brazen banter and boobage. The Notorious J.A.M. and CK-1 dig past the dozens of celebrity cameos and the massive marketing machine—and ask the big question: Can this yellow-coated hero ever step out from under the long, dark shadow of Batman?

Bonus: Madonna Movie-cast (Part I)01 Mar 202600:55:20

The Notorious J.A.M. rejoins CK-1 for a dive into the cinematic surreality that failed to make Madonna the world's biggest movie star: The ultra-low-budget, revenge fever dream A Certain Sacrifice and the helium-voiced, screwball chaos of Who's That Girl? Brace yourself for love slaves, satanic rituals, diabolical driving, cougars on the loose, and a whole lot of 'what were they thinking?'

#21: Madonna - Crazy For You01 Feb 202600:58:57

Eye to eye, we need no words at all… except we're gonna need a lot of words (plus one secret word) for Madonna's greatest '80s tunes and a couple of controversies. Your crazy co-host, Ms. AK-47, is back to recount an unhealthy Breakfast Club obsession and her favorite songs (and least favorite fads) of 2025.

#22: Japan – Still Life In Mobile Homes (w/special guest: DJ Serious)15 Nov 202501:19:23

The not-so-mad DJ is back to talk 'bout Japan: the band and the country – as the winds then shift to Akiko Yano and YMO. CK-1 keeps bringing up Duran Duran, for some reasons, and I hope you like clips, because this is our clippiest to date.

#24: Joe Jackson - Steppin' Out01 Apr 202500:51:15

Cruising smoothly before surfacing like a submarine sandwich with tasty layers of Kraftwerk and glockenspiel: Did this song inspire the entire sophisti-pop movement or a just a corny chick flick? Is it about freedom, fantasy, or the afterlife? What's a TVO? Is it different for girls? Can you get what you want if you don't know what you want? Then we chat about the new Beetlejuice movie and a Duran Duran concert.

Bananas? How could two persons devote over 40-minutes to talking about that? You may be surprised to learn that they can be as sweet to the ears as they are to the palate. Tally 10 picks o' de bunch - none too filling. AND, perhaps, the '20s ain't looking so bad with new grooves from: Shakespear's Sister, Tears for Fears, Duran Duran, Kylie Minogue, Abba, Billy Idol, The Stranglers, Clan of Xymox, Lebanon Hanover, but there's only one act that could ever satisfy AK-47's electro-appetite...

BONUS Movie-cast: Garbage Pail Kids & Rock N Roll Nightmare16 Oct 202100:36:40

It's Halloween. Let's try something different. Just as the carousel rotates in reverse: DJ CK1 and the Notorious J.A.M. speak less of music and much more about the art of cinema circa 1987. 1st Half: The Garbage Pail Kids Movie. 2nd Half: Rock 'n Roll Nightmare (aka The Edge of Hell). To listen, however, YOU must take the oath. This is non-official super secret stuff, folks - so no bitching to The Board.

#34: David Bowie - Loving The Alien (w/special guest: Notorious J.A.M.)16 Aug 202101:04:23
Torture comes and torture goes. We hope you like David Bowie (or can tolerate him somewhat) because this is our most artist-centric episode to date. We start with with an exclusive interview with a real-life Bowie enthusiast: Notorious J.A.M. of VisArt Video and get a whiff of his top-6 essential Bowie albums. Then (about 40-minutes in) AK-47 bursts onto the scene with yet another hefty smattering of Bowie. Had enough Bowie? Well, our Listener Mails got something to say about the good and bad of... you guessed it... BOWIE! But AK-47 also wants to bitch about those YouTube reaction videos. Ironic, considering that this entire podcast is based on reactions. Granted, most ours are more delayed, usually. If anything's worthy of a reaction, it's this new: Fancy video.
