Cage's Kiss: The Nicolas Cage Podcast

What makes a man?! We don’t know. What makes a man want to slaughter buffalo? We still don’t know, but we watched and discussed Butcher’s Crossing. Enjoy all the bad “buff” jokes.

We watched and discussed the 2023 film The Flash since (spoiler!) there’s a Nicolas Cage cameo. We talk about microwaving babies and the trouble with Ezra Miller, and we start beef with John Francis Daley. THAT’S RIGHT!

Linda would like to offer her sincerest apologies - this episode should have been posted a couple months ago, but chronic fatigue and a very busy work schedule have been kicking her ass. The CHUDS discussed the hits and misses of Renfield and how to fix it all.

We’re talking about the Nic Cage western ‘The Old Way’ as well as Cat Balou (Watch it. Watch it now.), why none of us are parents (the world’s a better place for it), how Alec Baldwin killed a person, and CLINT MOTHERF*CKIN’ HOWARD!

As usual, the movie for this episode was met with mixed feelings. We've seen Nicolas Cage play complex characters before, but none so complicated as this. In this episode, we discuss Cage's performance as a fictionalized version of himself in 'The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.' We discuss the bromance, the hits and misses, how the film could have improved, the missing NPH nude scene, and the cuteness of Daddy Pedro Pascal.

We're back for V-Day, which just so happens to be our pod anniversary! We're bringing the romance by watching and reviewing 'Prisoners of the Ghostland' so you don't have to! We discuss how nobody wants to be Eskimo brothers with Michael Jackson (RIP Lisa Marie Presley), how Donnie refuses to accept parental responsibilities for children of strippers, and where exactly this movie went wrong. Don't worry, we fixed it.

We're back, behbeeee! We're celebrating Nicolas Cage's birthday with his 2021 film, 'Pig'. Linda discusses how this movie surprised her in a wonderful why and sings a ruined version of a beloved song that will ruin it for you forever; Donnie discusses his time in the food industry and shares a bit of his frustrations with Cage's prep cooking; and Adrian shares the box office performance and (as always) has a brilliant sequel idea. Remember: 'You don't have to care' and 'F*ck Seattle.'

Don’t miss Donnie's one-man rendition of Les Miserables and Adrian’s solo performance. Donnie and Linda recommend loving the Willy, but Adrian finds no wonder in this Wonderland. Spoilers ahead.

This week, the CHUDs are talking about the last 2 episodes in Netflix's 'History of Swear Words', covering the words 'p*ssy' and 'damn'. Mostly, they go off on tangents and we find out why Linda and Donnie are so fuggin weird (Hint: it's another cousin story).

Listen to this bitch put up with these 2 dicks. This week, we’ve got Big Nic Energy! Also, we become dick wizards. We’re covering the History of Swear Words, episodes 3 and 4, ‘Bitch’ and ‘Dick’. We feel that the new Netflix show doesn’t properly cover the actual history of swear words, so we give a shout-out to our friends who do a great job covering the history of words and phrases - Origin of Speakcies.

Linda and Adrian toss some sugar and honey into Donnie's Ice tea, just before we poo out our episode and explore the majestic decency of the F word. Floccinaucinihilipilification

We’re celebrating Cagemas Day (our sweet baby boi’s birthday) and our 100th episode! Less exciting, we watched The Croods: A New Age. Donnie and Linda found it entertaining (though, not without its problems) while Adrian (as expected) hated everything about it. Join us as we discuss the movie and take a moment to thank some patrons and friends.

In this episode, we’re talking about the comic book Nicolas Cage and his son Weston created with the help of Mike Carey, ‘Voodoo Child’. It answers the question What happens when you cross ‘Spawn’ and 'The Crow’ and take away anything interesting?! Plus, we get to find out why Adrian is no longer allowed in family restaurants, Donnie gives us a spoiler for ‘Glass,’ and we share our new segment ‘Burger King or Hell?’

Hey there, CHUDs! We realized that we covered The Croods before we started our Sequel Return More Harder segment. So, this week we’re discussing our (probably very accurate) predictions for what we should expect to see in The Croods 2: A New Age. Also, we discuss what we would like to see from Nicolas Cage in 2021 and we come up with a masterpiece starring Weston: ‘Druid Kommander.’ Finally, is it just me? Or was Cage putting the OI in FOIN in the trailers for ‘The History of Swear Words?’ There are SO many trigger warnings for this episode, I can’t even begin. So sorry.

This week the gang goes through the fargate to witness mortal kombat with the aid of our guide and celebrity guest - the one-and-only Len Kabasinski! That’s right, we covered Nicolas Cage’s latest direct-to-streaming movie, Jiu Jitsu! We talk about real Jiu Jitsu (versus whatever this was) costuming choices and classic martial arts movies that were so much better; Linda shares some behind-the-scenes information; and Len imparts some great wisdom for all creative types.

While Adrian is still MIA, Donnie and Linda covered the 2019 direct-to-streaming feature, ‘Grand Isle’ which features Kelsey Grammer as a low-falutin small-town investigator looking into a rash of missing (or murdered?!) teens, KaDee Strickland as a desperate wife, and Cage as your drunk uncle from down south (HUH HUH). At one point, Linda and Donnie say they didn’t realize it took place in the 80’s, to which Adrian complained that there’s an on-screen message saying, ‘1988,’ but this aint the big city! We can’t read!

Apologies for the sound quality and my coughing, but this may be our best episode to date! Donnie and I (Linda) are joined by Kiara Williams! We set out to just discuss Cage’s 2019 movie, ‘Primal,’ but we ended up fixing it and creating an amazing franchise of nightmare fuel! Also, Kiara was kind enough to teach us about Canadian culture in hopes to end the syrup wars. We left an extra bit at the end since the laughs didn't stop. Check out Kiara’s amazing YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs3VbL_OXrsjxqeWymuwK5g?disable_polymer=true

Don’t bother watching Kill Chain, we did it for you! Linda plotted out the beats of the movie like she was hunting a killer and Donnie and Adrian present ‘The Closer.’

Have you ever wished they had one of those old-fashioned ‘INDUSTRY!’ educational films where they show you the whole process from picking coco leaves to distribution of cocaine while also detailing the value per gram throughout the process? Sure! We all do! Luckily, there’s 'Running with the Devil.' We have our friend, Anthony, from Capes on the Couch join us to try to make sense of our lives after having seen this.

Linda has arisen from her grave to discuss ‘Color Out of Space’ and Steve from Speakcies shares his expert knowledge on the majestic Alpaca! Check it out to learn more about Richard Stanley, Joely Richardson, alpacas, and H.P. Lovecraft’s original story!
