Joel Murphy and Molly Regan were just trying to have a nice night out to celebrate their three-year anniversary. But they inadvertently ended up stumbling across a cult.

Molly joins Joel and Lars Periwinkle to talk about their bizarre night out on this week’s Hobo Radio Podcast. Joel also has some fun with Tik Tok’s Disney text-to-speech feature.

Hobo Radio 588 – Shouldn’t it be Revenge of the Sixth?

Featured, Hobo Radio, Mad Men, Podcasts, Star Wars, The Sopranos

May the 4th has become a Star Wars celebration day. So Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle spend May the 6th looking at the state of Star Wars films. They question Disney’s decision to fire Phil Lord and Christopher Miller from Solo, considering how well they did with Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse and The Mitchells vs. The Machines, and wonder if Disney is too afraid to do anything original with the franchise.

They also weigh in on Joyce Carol Oates’ criticism of Mad Men and share some thoughts on The Sopranos.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “No Time” by Bronson Scott

Silver Linings Playback 34 – Star Wars Holiday Special

Chewbacca, Christmas, Featured, George Lucas, han solo, Luke Skywalker, Podcasts, Silver Linings Playback, Star Wars

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre watch maligned movies and find their silver linings. For the month of December, they are watching Christmas movies.

When Silver Linings Playback launched in May, Joel and Andy spent the month watching maligned Star Wars films. So it’s only fitting that they end the year by watching the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special, a made-for-TV movie so reviled that for years the cast refused to talk about it in interviews and George Lucas tried to have all copies destroyed.

[Editor’s Note – While it isn’t officially streaming anywhere, bootleg copies of the special can be found on YouTube, including this link right here.]

Theme Song: “Bankin’” by Bronson Scott
