Doc Sleaze: It Definitely Didn’t Happen to Me! (4/30/25)

57:20 – By decree of Donald J Trumper, this is a politics free edition. Well, maybe. This time around, Doc Sleaze’s natural scepticism is put to the test as he ponders as to why he has never been invited to join the local coven and why weird phenomena never happen to him, either. Also included, an excursion into classic British smut and the sexual orientation of the Tate brothers. Little Miss Strange brings us some entirely deniable celebrity scandal and gossip in ‘Total Bollocks’ and we drop in on edition of ‘Action Business Bulletin’ to examine the impact of US tariffs.

Doc Sleaze: Psycho Nation (3/31/25)

48:05 – As a new age of American fascism dawns, Doc Sleaze explores his theory that the US elected a psychopathic fascist as president because they are a nation of psychopaths. The Doc also gives short shrift to media attempts to rationalise the chaos of the Trump administration, lectures the UK press on its inability to grasp the principles of democracy and looks into the UK right’s obsession that foreign criminals are ‘crowding out’ indigenous villains. Plus, we get a preview of where the US is heading via some news from the future and look at low budget seventies exploitation movies. Patrick Stewart is on hand to soothe outraged American listeners (yeah, I know that nobody ever listens to these shows) with his dulcet tones. Includes:

Patrick Stewart Reassures Americans ¦ Target: Trump ¦ ‘The Ultimate Warrior’ (1975) Trailer ¦ Movie in Brief – ‘The Ultimate Warrior’ (1975) ¦ News From the Future ¦ Psycho Nation ¦ More News From the Future ¦ ‘They Come Over Here, Stealing Our Crimes…’ ¦ ‘Malibu High’ (1979) Trailer ¦ Forgotten Film – ‘Malibu High’ (1979) ¦ News From the Future Again ¦ Democracy Misunderstood ¦ ‘No Means No…’ ¦ Rationalising the Irrational ¦ The Wisdom of Patrick Stewart
