Another office day means commuting and thus listening to more classic @smershpod.com episodes on the train again, and a particular appreciation of @gralefrit.bsky.social as a guest, very funny and very interesting in terms of writing/theory insight, especially on Thunderball.

Catching up with Halloween Smersh
An absolute treat to hear this love letter to one of the best films of all time, and obviously a few jokes about Tom Atkins getting his end away are to be expected

Working my way through @smershpod.com's Tuesday Night Movie Club back catalogue and just got to Howard The Duck.
Having such a good time with the podcast (a better time than I had with the storybook!), that I'm considering rewatching the film, but I seem to remember it lasting half a day.

"What is reality? Reality on any one world is mere fantasy on all others. Here all is real and all is illusion. What is, what was, and what will be starts here with the words… IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS… HOWARD THE DUCK!"

I don't know what's behind this, but through some mysterious working of fate whenever I'm sad and worried and really need it, @smershpod.com pops out a new Neenan/Crowley episode and balance is restored

I enjoyed this very much. I appreciate John shedding some light on what a clearly bored prop guy came up with while preparing the ancient diary for the film.

I could listen to John Thomson’s Walken impression from now until Doomsday. Listen here, it is the best. He gets the low gravel others miss

A delightful week of absolute belters from @smershpod.com , the particular highlights being today and yesterday's episodes and at some point I think the show will need a battle of the Christopher Walken impressions.
