It’s not every day that you see a “video art zombie film” about a man convinced he is an alien zombie roaming the streets of L.A. on the prowl for brains and gay sex. Unfortunately, moviegoers in Australia won’t be seeing the film anytime soon, since L.A. Zombie has been banned from being screened at the Melbourne International Film Festival.
This week, Joel Murphy and Lars praise L.A. Zombie for its originality and urge Australia to reconsider. They also discuss Leonardo DiCaprio’s insufferable smugness, the improved goodies being given out at the Red Cross and Teddy Almond Turtle, the adorable pug who says “Batman.”
How much does Lars love Christopher Nolan? How much does Joel Murphy want to punch DiCaprio in the face? Does the pug really say “Batman”? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

It’s been a big week for free speech. First, the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals declared that the FCC’s indecency rule, which was put into place after the infamous Janet Jackson nipple fiasco, is unconstitutionally vague. Then, E!’s Marc Malkin, clearly feeling emboldened by the court’s decision, exercised his first amendment rights by posing the question: “How Will Mel Gibson’s Latest Rants Affect Jodie Foster’s Beaver?”
Joel Murphy and Lars discuss both of these developments on this week’s show. They also reveal the real reason Lars was off of the show last week and they debut a brand new segment that may shock all of you Batman fans out there.
What does Bruce Willis smell like? Could Lars knock out Muhammad Ali? How will Mel Gibson’s latest rants affect Jodie Foster’s Beaver? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

Lars is M.I.A., so Joel Murphy is joined by Chris Kirkman, who does his best to class up the joint this week. The two have a lot to discuss, including M. Night Shyamalan’s fall from grace, Terry O’Quinn and Michael Emerson’s Emmy prospects and the latest developments down at the Department of Defense’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
Kirkman also reveals the top five worst films he has ever seen, an eclectic list that includes two films about primates, one featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger and a film that made him physically ill.
Where is Lars this week? What are the five worst films Kirkman has ever seen? What killed the dinosaurs? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This Sunday night, most Americas will head outside to watch people blow shit up in honor of our victory over England 234 years ago. It’s a strange tradition, but one that all Americans seem to love. Joel Murphy and Lars do their best to make sense of this yearly spectacle and also pay tribute to America, albeit somewhat unenthusiastically.
They also discuss Despicable Me’s stange new gimmick, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World’s ineffective advertising campaign and Wonder Woman’s boring new costume. Finally, the dynamic duo looks back on of the earliest Hobo Radio podcasts – the infamous Fourth of July “stripper show” from way back in 2006.
How was the movie industry forever changed in 1994? When exactly does Scott Pilgrim come out? What the hell is Wonder Woman wearing? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

The ads for the new film Knight and Day claim that Tom Cruise is at his “Jerry Maguire best” in the film. Joel Murphy and Lars don’t really think that is something to be proud of.
Luckily, the dynamic duo is at their podcasting best this week. Seamlessly transitioning from one topic to another, Joel and Lars discuss Timothy Olyphant’s career, SyFy Original movies (including a new one pitting Deborah Gibson against Tiffany) and the reason reality shows in D.C. fail.
Would Olyphant make a good Snake Plissken? Why do people in the South use polka dotted fabric to patch their pants? What the hell is a gatoroid? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
