Cult Classic Mania

Hello Maniacs and welcome back to another episode of Cult Classic Mania. Matthew talks about the satire science fiction, alien invasion film - Mars Attacks! (1996) directed by Tim Burton for better or for worse, who knows how this'll turn out. Its pretty awful if you're not aware of the satire elements but overall a fun, nostalgic watch. The 4/15 episode is a horror film featuring Dr. Evil's Evil Son... Seth Green from 1999. ALL HAIL THE 90's. Want to know where you can get more...

Hello Maniacs and welcome back to another episode of Cult Classic Mania. This week Matthew talks about the amazing horror-comedy cult classic, The Stuff from 1985 directed by Larry Cohen (RIP, 1941-2019). The Stuff is a film that I have a deep love and appreciation for so I hope I served it justice with this episode. I am incredibly excited to be back for season 2 and I feel like this season will be our best season yet. The 4/8 episode will feature a film from 1996.. Starring Sarah...

In part two of this episode, I share my favorite stories over the years from Horse Master—what I remember most about the horses, and what I've learned from them over the last 11 years. Plus, a very special What the Hay? Q&A with questions and favorite memories from listeners.

Hello Maniacs and welcome back to another episode of Cult Classic Mania. This week Matthew talks about the dumpster fire that is Samurai Cop from 1991, directed by Amir Shervan unfortunately. This movie is easily the worst film I ever had the displeasure of viewing. It truly is a dumpster fire.... So bad that I'm actually taking a break next week. Just kidding, the real reason I'm taking a break is to prepare for the month of April. I'll release a half assed episode maybe for 3/25 to just...

Hello Maniacs and welcome back to another episode of Cult Classic Mania. This week Matthew sits down to talk about the new-ish indie horror slasher, Pool Party Massacre from 2017 directed by Drew Marvick. Its extremely campy and sleazy, meta, and all-around a great throwback to 80's cheese. Talk to you all next week for Samurai Cop from 1991. 20% off a new 4K Fire TV device w/ Trade-In: https://amzn.to/2tOTaTt You can support us monetarily by donating to our Patreon:...

Hello Maniacs and welcome back to another episode of Cult Classic Mania. This week Matthew breaks down the most iconic anime of all time, Akira from 1988 directed by Katsuhiro Otomo. Akira is one of films that you must watch before you die because Akira is one of those films that's a unique viewing experience either in your own home or if you're lucky enough view this iconic film in a theatrical setting. I can't stress enough how important this film is and how it changed the world of anime...

In part one of this 2-part episode, I talk about my choice to end my long-running show, Horse Master, where I'm going from here, and share stories from some of my favorite episodes—what I remember most about the horses, and what I've learned from them over the last 11 years.

Hello Maniacs, this isn't an official episode unfortunately but more or less a long list of announcements. Feel free to skip this post but please vibe out to our bitchin' new theme song first. If you're dying for content, go check out Slashers podcast because they covered C.H.U.D. I (1984) in response to Jake doing C.H.U.D. II (1989) with me! You can check that out here: https://player.fm/series/slashers/episode-4-chud Thank you again for the new theme song Petravita, he's got mad flow for...

This episode Matthew sits down with Jake Allan from Slashers Podcast. We talk about the absolute disaster of a sequel, C.H.U.D. II Bud the Chud (1989). Originally it was supposed to be Return of the Living Dead 3 but they backed out fast. Return of the Living Dead 3 was a disaster too so it comes around full circle I guess? Whatever, check out the loosely hockey based theme podcast, Slashers here: https://anchor.fm/s/882357c/podcast/rss MAJOR APOLOGIES FOR THE AUDIO ISSUES. ZENCASTR IS THE...

This episode Matthew talks about the disaster The Day Mars Invaded Earth (1963) starring Kent Taylor. You could easily argue that Mars didn't invade Earth and they somehow only invaded the Fielding's residence. So its kind of an alien invasion film? Oh well, it doesn't matter. I promise C.H.U.D II Bud the Chud (1989) is a better movie. A big thank you to CultCelebrities.com for the sponsored post. You can support us monetarily by donating to our Patreon:...

This episode Matthew talks about the legendary trucker exploitation film, Breaker! Breaker! (1977) staring the man, the myth, the legend Chuck Norris. What movie did you think I was going to talk about, Smokey and the Bandit? No, we don't take ourselves seriously at all. I hope all of you enjoy the sound quality improvement.

This month's podcast episode was recorded live from my retreat at C Lazy U Ranch! I had a nice fireside Q&A session with riders who attended the clinic about horse behavior, safety on the trail and more. Listen in on the discussion and see if your questions were answered!

In this month's podcast episode I'm talking colt-starting and bits—when to start using them, why, and how to know it's time to move up to the next step in training. Joining me is a very special guest: a precocious young lady named Morgan who reached out to me to educate herself about the whole process. Everyone has something to learn from this episode whether you're bringing up a 2-year-old like Pepperoni or working with a mature 10-year-old. As always, thanks to SmoothStride Riding Jeans...

In this episode, I'll explain what "problem behavior" means in this context, and the difference between replacement training and punishment to extinguish problematic behaviors. This particular kind of training can often get better results than punishment—if your timing is good. Listen now to find out how it works, and how to apply it in three common scenarios.

You asked, so I'm answering! This week, I'm dedicating the whole episode to questions I got from listeners—from an owner who's fed up with his horse's buddy sour behavior to safety in the trailer. Plus, the answer to one question everyone seems to want to know about me is revealed. Enjoy!

In the last episode, I answered the question, "Did I get the wrong horse for me?" (If you missed it, go back and listen!) So you've decided your horse—whether he's too much horse, not enough horse, or is just downright dangerous—is not the right horse for you. Now what? Let's talk about where to go from here. Then, listener Q&A on what to do if your horse refuses to keep cantering—without escalating to a blow-up. As always, thanks to SmoothStride Riding Jeans for making it possible to get...

This time, podcast listener, Judy, wrote in asking the difficult question, "At what point should you give up on a particular horse? Or rather, did I get the wrong horse for me?" I'll touch on the things you should think about when you find yourself in this often heart-wrenching situation. As always, thanks to SmoothStride Riding Jeans for making it possible to get this podcast to you, the listeners, for free.

This time I'll talk about how to start getting your horse into shape for your riding goals this season, whether that's climbing mountain trails or ready for competition. Plus, you asked, and I answered! In my new segment, "What the Hay?" I answer some of the questions you asked about legging your horse up for spring riding.
