2023/01/20

This week on the show that talks about stuff on purpose, we try to get to the bottom of this whole "shoegaze" thing. What is it exactly? What was it? What does it mean to be "shoegaze"? If you know, then this episode might not be for you. If you don't know, then join us on this fascinating journey as we try to figure out what the hell "shoegaze" is. That's pretty much all we're doing this time around. We've heard the term "shoegaze" ten thousand times, but we've never really put a whole lot of

TRAPPO's Mail Bag #18! (The Batman One)

2023/01/13

The show that talks about you on purpose is talking about BATMAN on purpose this week. That's right, dear listener, this episode is all about the fallout from last September's Super-Controversial Live Action Batman Rankings episode, which got a surprising number of responses from some very passionate fans of The Dark Knight, and we finally decided to respond to them. Sure, it took us a while, but at least we're dismissive of your personal rankings, so that's cool, right? But we also talk about a

2022/12/23

Happy holidays! This week, since it's that special time of year, we're talking about Christmas movies! In a roundabout way. We're actually talking about a lot of the behind-the-scenes machinations behind the made-for-TV holiday movie factory, and how things in this industry have changed since a very big story broke in 2019. It's a story that deals with racism, homophobia, Christian conservatives, and a whole lot of other heavy topics, so if you don't want to deal with that stuff during your holiday

It's time to open up TRAPPO's Mail Bagfor the final time of 2022! Time certainly flies, dear listeners. This time around, we're reaching deepinto TRAPPO's throbbing sack to discuss In This Moment, Talking Heads, the forgotten work of Jim Steinman, Stuart Gordon's cinematic adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's Dagon, misconceptions regarding Chrystabell's transcendent Midnight Star, and things wrap up with a very special surprise that we won't spoil here, but you're gonna love it.

On this very special episode of the show that talks about stuff on purpose, we're discussing cult film director Frank Henenlotter's 1990 masterpiece Frankenhooker, the touching story of an amateur scientist who refuses to give up on the woman he loves after she's torn to bits by an errant remote control lawnmower, and the extreme lengths he goes through to bring her back to life. This movie is really something special, and since it's that special time of year, we figure you dear listeners deserve a

Welcome back to the show that talks about you on purpose! It's a brand-new episode of TRAPPO's Mail Bag, and it's just jam-packed with listener feedback!

TRAPPO's "Spooky" Mail Bag!

TRAPPO! ·

2022/11/18

In this very spooky edition of the show that talks about you on purpose, we address a bunch of comments left on the old blog that referred to our trio of Halloween-related episodes we released back in October. That's why it's called TRAPPO's "Spooky" Mail Bag, in case you were wondering. We figured we'd just put all those comments together under one roof for your convenience. It's a pretty decent episode, too. Some good feedback. Some funny responses. We have a pretty good little community here, and

This Is Not A Review Of "Forgiveness" by Girlpool

TRAPPO! ·

2022/11/11

The episode you're listening to is not a review of 2022's Forgiveness by synthpop duo Girlpool. You may think it is at first glance, but we assure you that's not what this is. Sure, we may discuss Forgiveness for a few minutes, but that hardly qualifies as a review. We also discuss Allegoria, the feature film debut from hard rock musician-turned-filmmaker Spider One, who is also the younger brother of Rob Zombie. Allegoria is currently streaming on SHUDDER.But we don't review Allegoria,

It's spooky season, and so we've decided to record a lengthy chat on the recent Hellraiser reboot for Hulu this week on the show that talks about stuff on purpose! And I do mean lengthy. This week's episode isn't quite our longest yet, but it's very close, so fair warning. We get into a very in-depth and varied discussion that covers all the relevant bases regarding the movie and the franchise in general, so if you haven't seen the movie yet and don't want to be spoiled, you might want to skip

Welcome to season two of the show that talks about stuff on purpose! TRAPPO is back with our next round of essential albums, but we're not just doing the same old boring thing we did to kick off our first season. That would be a waste of time. Instead of doing five albums each, we're each bringing TEN albums to the table in this ridiculously overstuffed LIGHTNING ROUND conversation!

I know that's not terribly exciting for you, dear listener, but we weren't exactly keeping track of the numbers here. And let's be honest, is the 13th installment of anything really that big a deal? Anyway, this time around we're talking about legendary avant-garde jazz musician Miles Davis, deranged indie rock band Starcrawler, the possibility
