Schlock Express: No Justice For Vigilantes (6/27/25)

1:01:06 – We’re back on the Schlock Express to explore the world of low-rent vigilante movies, looking at the difference between rogue cops and vigilante cops enroute. A selection of eighties titles gives us a chance to explore the idea of Vietnam as a causal factor in urban vigilantism, lady vigilantes fighting for the kind of feminism that male viewers of this schlock can cheer on and a fake sequel to a non-existent original.

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.
