388 - Gobbledyween: Society (feat. Greg Sahadachny)

Tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme: the rich have always sucked off the poor, and podcasting icon Greg Sahadachny has always joined Gobbledyween for the most ridiculous and outrageous pick of the season. This time, Paul and Arlo have chosen to torment Greg with Brian Yuzna's 1989 satire Society, which is a dumb teen sex comedy until--well, until it isn't. The gang discusses the film's subtext and/or screaming neon text; Screaming Mad George's "surrealistic makeup effects"; how the movie surprisingly rewards repeat viewings; and the film's unlikely parallels to Lynch, Friedkin, Polanski, and a whole buncha other pretentious arthouse weirdos.   Next: Gobbledyween comes to a close as Broken Magic author Eric Sipple joins us to discuss Emil Ferris' graphic novel My Favorite Thing Is Monsters.
