Recorded almost a year ago, our long-awaited Casino episode finally escapes the vault. At one point, Austin asks me if we'll be caught up by Killers of the Flower Moon's Oscar campaign and, true to my word, I yell "NO". In other news, my CassaBesties co-host Mallory Blair makes her CineMythology debut and we play the worst game I've ever thought up for this podcast. Was it all worth the wait? Probably not but I hope you enjoy it all the same. @MalloryMovies @austin_hayden @creamatoria ...

We celebrate the life and career of Ryan O'Neal with a discussion of his slickest star vehicle. My audio is a little choppy at times because I had to cut out a lot of barking. Peggy was very excitable during this episode but can you blame her? It's Ryan O'Neal, it's Isabelle Adjani, it's Bruce Dern, it's Walter Hill, folks. What a cast. What a picture. What a podcast. @creamatoria @austin_hayden @CineMythology Send mailbag questions to [email protected]

We run down some of Austin's favorite new movies, some of Raymond's favorite old movies and exactly one prompt from the mailbag. Not a great ratio, I don't know what to tell you.

You know what, I loved having this conversation with Austin and I loved listening back to it while editing. This is a movie that both encourages and defies explanation. Truly one of a kind. We had a couple hours to chat about it which didn't increase my understanding of the film one bit but considerably increased my appreciation of it and that, to me, is a sign of great art. It's beguiling; It continues to unfold without ever truly revealing its secrets. I hope you all get a chance to see...

A year after their Night of the Living Dead episode, Becky and Raymond return to the works of George A. Romero. It's an impulse they can't explain, perhaps something buried deep down in their psyche. This filmmaker meant something to them when they were younger and they can't resist coming back again and again, year after year. They get up and podcast. The people who listen get up and podcast! @Beckalano @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]

Kelsi and Trey from The Extra Credits podcast join us for the middle chapter of our Friedkin trifecta. Everything goes well until a stunning revelation an hour into the episode. Will the CineMythology listeners revolt? Will Raymond ever regain his credibility? Did he ever have any credibility to lose? Press play now on the podcast people are saying is "about film history". @TheExtraCredits @austin_hayden @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]

Riding high off the box office success of Cape Fear, Scorsese brings an unexpected adaptation to the silver screen. We're joined by Ra'Shawn from When Cinephiles Attack to dig into this movie's emotional violence, Thelma Schoonmaker's experimental editing techniques and all things Michelle Pfeiffer. @TheSimbaTattoo @cinephileattack @austin_hayden @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]

The CassaBesties finally round the corner to John Cassavetes' directorial work with this discussion of his seminal feature debut. CineMythology's Austin Hayden pops in to discuss his favorite filmmaker and how Cassavetes' reputation has been unfairly pegged to a single aspect of his process. What makes Shadows so great and its creative success so difficult to replicate for generations of independent filmmakers?

Like Pee-wee Herman, Paul Reubens was one of a kind and there's no better film to remember him by than Tim Burton's madcap debut feature. We're joined by podcast logo artist extraordinaire Amanda Chavez to discuss all the bits, quotes, goofs and gags that we've been obsessing over since childhood.

Our run of tribute shows races on as we celebrate the late great William Friedkin with his Oscar winning masterpiece. You may think Popeye Doyle is a reckless monster but, at the end of the day, you'd be right. Buckle up, assholes, the only other Friedkin protagonist with this much pizazz is f*****g Pazuzu. @austin_hayden @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]

After Robbie Robertson's death, we thought it would be appropriate to double back and discuss Scorsese's most iconic documentary but then we got carried away and ended up talking about Barbenheimer for most of the episode. Austin was on a tight schedule and I thought it'd be difficult to do 90 minutes on a rock doc so I took us down a few too many rabbit holes and, before I knew it, we were out of time. It's all tangentially related to The Last Waltz; we discuss big cultural moments and the...

Let us tell you the story of Love and Hate. We absolutely LOVE Charles Laughton's work behind the camera and we absolutely HATE that there isn't more of it. Conan interviewing Gene Wilder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3MqONAYz8E @creamatoria @austin_hayden @CineMythology [email protected]

Martin Scorsese puts a new coat of paint on an old Hollywood classic. Break out your cigars and get ready to laugh out loud, but not in a genuine way, more in a really forced, purposefully obnoxious way that feels vaguely menacing.

We come in hot on this bad boy with a long discussion about the strike and where the industry may be headed.

Hey gang. Since Twitter is circling the drain, I figured I'd use the podcast feed to update everybody on the show and solicit your questions and comments for an upcoming mailbag. Please send them my way at [email protected]. After we get that business out of the way, Becky and I cover a mystery motion picture classic to give you all a little bit more bang for your download buck. Catch you next week!

Mella from When Cinephiles Attack returns to the podcast to discuss Julie Dash's first and only theatrical feature. We interrogate the movie's place in film history, discuss the origins of the L.A. Rebellion and find a profound sense of meaning in license plates. @Mell_Bell @CinephileAttack @creamatoria @austin_hayden @CineMythology [email protected]

We circle back to honor the late greats Ray Liotta and Jonathan Demme with the movie that put the former on Scorsese's map. How many other movies will we talk about before getting to Something Wild? How many other movies will we talk about AFTER getting to Something Wild? Who is the biggest hunk in this movie's handsome cast? And how many f*****g airplanes will fly over Raymond's apartment? Tune in now to find out. Deadline Interview with Scorsese: ...

We celebrate the late great John Singleton by discussing his seismic feature debut and the legacy he left behind. From the extraordinary cast to Singleton's technical flourishes, this picture truly deserves its place among the classics.   @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]

Returning champion Becky Catalano joins us for a discussion of Scorsese's most popular flick and the debut of a new segment which goes surprisingly well. We cover everything from the towering performances to the non-stop needle drops, underlining the film's humor and humanity along the way. Are these Fellas actually Good? Tune in now to find out.   @beckalano @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]

This one was recorded a while ago and Austin and I were talking about the (then) impending writers strike which ended up becoming a major chunk of this episode. We got pretty deep into A.I. generated "art" and how it fits within broader political and cultural trends in America, what that portends for our future and how Slacker is a weirdly appropriate movie for this current moment. @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]
