Pod Stallions 126: Who Mourns for Doctor Who?
7/28/2025
Pod Stallions 126: Who Mourns for Doctor Who? We know what you’re thinking. With a headline like that we’re bound to be Who-bashing all episode, right? (You might also be thinking, ‘bout time they showed up!). Au contrair, my friends. Doctor Who is one of the many things that brought us together as friends, and is something we love deeply. With recent news reports and all the online chatter about the current state of New Who (still considered ‘new’ after a 20-year return!) and its possible exit, it felt like a good time and good subject to explore on our return from hiatus.
So close the door, hit the Tardis controls from ‘Way Back’ to ‘Present Day’ and prepare to walk in eternity as we give our two pence on all that’s gone down and up with everyone’s favourite Time Lord.
Just remember to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow before you leave.....

Pod Stallions 124: Canadian Movies with Matt Weinhold
Back bacon. RUSH. Toques. William frigging Shatner. These are just a handful of the many gifts Canada has given the world. And dang it, they know a thing or two about makin’ movies, too. It’s high time PS celebrated them in an episode, especially since one 1/2 of us claim to be Canadian! (Note: the jury is still oot). And who better to help than our monstrously cool pal Matt Weinhold, Actor/comedian/cinephile/Monster Party Co-host and all-around good egg? All three of us sing our lists of cinematic gold from the Great White North, from comedies to horror to thrillers and beyond. Take off with us, won’t you? (Apologies, that was too easy but obligatory)

Pod Stallions 124: David Lynch
1/24/2025
The Elephant Man, Frank Booth, Agent Cooper and Bob, Sailor and Lula and the big sweaty Baron with bad skin. Just some of the denizens in the film world of David Lynch. It’s safe to say the works of Lynch weren’t everyone’s cup of coffee.

And that’s as it should be, with most left of center output. But his impact can’t be denied, and as weirdos and movie freaks ourselves, it seemed appropriate to celebrate the late auteur. (Plus the man himself is someone we’d happily spend time with).
But don’t think this is the snooty, art-house ep of PS; we still manage to get Richard Lynch and 80s underwater monster flicks in, too. The owls are not what they seem, but this is a damn fine cup of Pod Stallions. Drink full and descend!
Topics discussed: David Lynch, Dune, Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, Dennis Hopper, Twin Peaks, Ray Wise, District 9, Withnail and I, Lost Highway, David Bowie, Kyle McLaughlin, Rober Blake, Tim Burton, Planet of the Apes, Robert Forester, SNL, Jackie Brown, Mark Wahlberg, The Rift, Matt Helm, Victor Buono, The Wrecking Crew, Dean Martin,

DOWNLOAD THE SHOW HERE
Never let it be said that horror kids can't be romantic and have a soft spot for the psychotic underdog, because following up on our Werewolves October ep comes Famous Phantoms of Filmdom. You know what we mean, from Opera to the Paradise, we cover all the ways the original story has 'bled' into other adaptations and pop culture. So grab your favorite opera mask, throw on a cape and settle in for PS's 2nd October eps all about Phantom menaces. (See what we did there? Note: we won't be covering The Phantom Menace. Or Phantom Power by Super Furry Animals, there's only so much time). PS- We know, we forgot Darkman, all Brian's fault and we'll get to it.

Pod Stallions 121: The Alien Franchise

Pod Stallions 121: The Alien Franchise What has two arms, two mouths and gets you right in the chest? It's ALIEN, of course, and since 1979 it's titular character has appeared (tho altered) in multiple big budget flicks, with varying and often disappointing results. With the new Alien: Romulus currently face-hugging the public in a retro way, we thought we'd cover the good, the bad and the Italian (yes, we get to the ALIEN rip-offs!) in our latest convo. In cyberspace, everyone can hear you scream...from listening to the ALIEN-ating new episode of Pod Stallions!

Pod Stallions 119: Joe Flaherty Tribute
4/25/2024
Episode 119 Pod Stallions: Joe Flaherty Tribute Life is swings and roundabouts, we are lucky to live through times enjoying brilliant art, but as the years creep on, we lose more of the artists. Joe Flaherty gave us more laughs than can be counted, and because he means so much to us we do our best to honour him, his many characters and his dependability in the latest Pod Stallions. We, um, also manage to squeeze in commercials featuring Doctor Who actors, Lifeforce, and the cinematic oeuvre of Steve Railsback. It'll all make sense. Enjoy.

Pod Stallions 115: Doctor Who at 60
11/23/2023
Pod Stallions 115: Doctor Who at 60 We're not ones to dwell on the passage of time (and let's face it, no one wants that shock to the system) but it IS hard to believe that it's now been 60 years since two schoolteachers went to that junkyard for the trip of a lifetime, and Doctor Who began. Luckily, according to the Doctor, time is immaterial. But let's throw caution to the wind and have a jumbo-sized PS episode celebrating Adventures Through Time and Space. It's safe to say DW is embraced and referenced more by us than any other topic, and it's been a long, strange journey. Reverse the polarity, Sonics at the ready, Allons-y! #podcast #podstallions #doctorwho DOWNLOAD THE SHOW HERE

Pod Stallions 112: Movie Serials
7/11/2023
Before the MCU and Multiverses, before the Snyderverse, before the summers that the Shadow and the Phantom RULED the cineplexes (didn't they?), it was a world when the superhero and pulp characters reigned supreme in Saturday morning serials. The precursor of the modern action movie, their impact can be felt to this day , and since we keep our fingers on the pulse, we thought it was high time we showed them some love. So grab yer popcorn and Buck Rogers Disintegrator Pistols as we thread the projector and eat a bowl of healthy serial(s).

Pod Stallions 111: Busted TV Pilots Round 1
6/9/2023
Welcome to the first of what is a new obsession with us, Busted TV Pilots!
For the inaugural episode, we've chosen two absolute doozies starting with the "Man from the 25th Century" AKA "Irwin Allen's Kitchen Junk Drawer." Followed up with Jason's choice, the American version of "Spaced" which, totally doesn't suck.
Then we trail off into topics like Dick Shawn, rare SCTV and voice-over legend Bob Holt.
Got a busted TV pilot for us? Let us know in the Pod Stallions Facebook group!

PodStallions 110: What We're Watchin'
4/16/2023
Keen-eared listeners of the Pod Stallions podcast know that those boys can talk, know a lot of stuff and have opinions, whether they're asked for or not. Each episode peels back another layer of the enigma-onion that is BraSon, revealing more of their likes, loves and mehs. We thought it was a good time to rip another layer off and talk about What We've Been Watching Lately. Comedy, horror, Love Boat, documentary, sci-fi, Love Boat and punk rock are all discussed as well as the Love Boat. It's like a convo between video store geeks if we still had video stores to hang out in. Give it a whirl; who knows? You just might get turned on to try some suggestions and may even be familiar with others. But don't forget, Be Kind, Rewind.
Topics include Green Room, VFW, Love Boat, Doctor Who, Are you being served?, Star Trek, History of the World Part 2, Battlefield Earth, The Intruder Within, GORP, Patrick, Australian Cinema, Documentaries, Bob and David, Dick Shawn, Failed TV pilots, #podstallions #plaidstallions #toyventures #startrek #loveboat #tvpilots
So wade in, as the curtain is pulled back to reveal Brian and Jason at their most naked (metaphorically, obviously), in Pod Stallions' Group Free For All!

LISTEN HERE “Pop quiz: What do The Flintstones, The Wild Wild West and Car 54, Where Are You? have in common? Is it that they could ALL have used more Victor Buono? Well, frankly, YES. But more importantly, they’ve all had big screen re-makes/re-imaginings for this episode! Yes, as usual, we do the work, so you don’t have to, and there’s a lot of ground to cover. Sitcoms, cartoons, cop shows and SNL sketches (??) have gotten so many theatrical incarnations that this Ep could be one of a series we do. So pull up a chair, turn up the volume and get ready to play along as you inevitably yell more titles at the speakers as we explore ‘From Small Screen to Silver Screen’ on the new episode of Pod Stallions.
