Cinema Smorgasbord – How Do You Do, Fellow Kids? – Transformers One (2024)

On this episode of HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW KIDS? (the world’s finest Steve Buscemi-themed podcast), we’re looking at TRANSFORMERS ONE, the all-CG origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, with a heavyweight voice cast bringing them to life – including Steve Buscemi as legendary rabble-rouser STARSCREAM. Is it more than meets the eye, or.. uh.. bad? Guess we’ll talk it over right after we dig into the latest Buscemi news. It’s time to roll out!

Cinema Smorgasbord – Whatever Happened to Vic Diaz? – Black Mama, White Mama (1973) (THE FINALE!)

We knew this day was coming, but it’s the FINAL EPISODE of WHATEVER HAPPENED TO VIC DIAZ?, our glorious deep-dive into the film career of “the Filipino Peter Lorre” Vic Diaz which was one of our first ever podcasts under the Cinema Smorgasbord banner. It’s been a fine few years, and what better way to round things out than with an all-timer exploitation classic starring Pam Grier and Margaret Markov as two women chained together and making their way through a peril-filled “South American” jungle. Add in a truly demented Sid Haig performance and you’ve got a recipe for (filthy) fun. And of course we have a tremendous Vic Diaz performance as the sleazy drug dealer Victor “Vic” Cheng! Let’s end this thing with a bang!
