Ever hear a lyric that flips on the light in a dark room? Jack Horner of the UK psychedelic duo The Dirt joins us to unpack Monkey Punch, a live-wire album tracked in just two days that insists albums should feel like stories, not shuffled singles. We dive into the line that’s still ringing in our heads—“Protons neutrons controlled by morons”—and use it as a compass for a bigger conversation about unity over divisio...
Ever hear a sitar slice through a wall of guitars and think, this belongs in a film? We went deep with Helicon’s John Paul Hughes to map how a Glasgow psych band turns orchestral tension into thunderous finales, why beauty lives inside noise, and how structure makes chaos hit harder on stage. From the Beatles’ psychedelic turn to Brian Jones’s restless curiosity, we explore the instruments, scenes, and accidents tha...
Step into a smoky Glasgow rehearsal room and meet John Paul Hughes of Helicon, the psychedelic rock band turning influence into something fiercely their own. We go deep on craft, why permanence beats hype, and how to build songs that still feel new decades later. If you’ve ever argued that guitar music is alive and well, this is your proof.
We trace the DNA from The Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd, and Led Z...
The shine of a big break doesn’t always light the path ahead. We sit down with character actor Robert LaSardo to explore what success really feels like when the cheers fade and the measuring starts—how to wear your colors after a loss, why loyalty outlasts gossip, and what it takes to keep your spirit intact inside a machine that rewards visibility while testing your soul.
Robert brings us into the surreal ...
The best horror stories aren’t just on screen—they’re the ones told in the glow of dead‑of‑night lights, long after the credits. We sit down with cast and crew from Dawn of the Dead to relive the midnight Monroeville shoots, the improvised zombie gigs, and the wild on‑set mishaps that became legend. From a neck‑bite effect gone hilariously wrong to a crew member who asked George Romero for a shot and walked away as ...
Horror stays scary when the set stays alive, and few directors kept a set more awake than George Romero. We’re at Living Dead Weekend inside the Monroeville Mall with Michael Gornick and Tom Dubinsky, digging into the craft behind Dawn of the Dead, Martin, and Creepshow—where a passing idea could turn into the next unforgettable moment. From the Westinghouse lights shutting down floor by floor to a mall blood pressu...
Horror history feels different when you’re standing where it happened. We sit down at Living Dead Weekend 2024 to celebrate George A. Romero, trade stories with longtime friends, and trace how a single location—the Monroeville Mall—became a cultural landmark that still pulls fans from the UK, Germany, and beyond. It’s part reunion, part field study in why certain films never fade: they attach to places, people, and ...
A crowded floor at Living Dead Weekend, a mic in the “fishbowl,” and one of horror’s key voices reflecting on how a scrappy regional production became a global touchstone. We sit down with Russ Streiner to unpack the 30-day, two-block shoot behind Night of the Living Dead, the trade-offs of keeping commercial clients afloat while chasing a dream project, and the nerve-wracking distributor road trip that collided wit...
The scare that hooked so many of us wasn’t just teeth and shadows. It was wood splintering underwater, a breath that didn’t come when it should, and the stubborn belief that a crate at the bottom of a quarry still holds something hungry. We open the vault on Creep Show’s The Crate, the creature fans call Fluffy, and the handmade practical effects that make this segment feel alive decades later.
We talk abou...
