La Llorona Sep 02, 2020

Show notes

Lock up your sons and daughters as we weep and wail over La Llorona, a uniquely Mexican spin on the classic ghostly "Woman in White". This vengeful spirit drowned her children and, mistaking your children for her own, will do the same. Tweet feedback to @podcastbutevil.

Opening Track: "La Llorona" by Carmen Goett
Repeated Knack: "My Sharona"
Closing Track: "My Bologna" by Weird Al Yankovic

Mr. Burns Aug 25, 2020

Show notes

We are saying Boo-urns as we talk about (and like) The Simpsons' 104-year-old plutocrat and gadabout, Charles Montgomery Burns. Mr. Burns is a singularly evil blight on Springfield, and one for which voice actor Harry Shearer rightfully deserves a lifetime achievement award for outstanding achievement in the field of excellence.

The Invisible Man Aug 13, 2020

Show notes

We're totally transparent in our love for The Invisible Man, both the H.G. Wells classic and its indelible 1933 Universal film adaptation.

Caligula Aug 05, 2020

Show notes

The (Roman) Empire strikes back, as we examine how in the span of less than four years Caligula's rule was so debauched and bloodsoaked as to grant him infamy for millenia to come. Could you imagine such a thing ever happening again? Boggles the mind. Tweet feedback to @podcastbutevil.

Intro: Theme from 'I, Claudius'
Outro: The Smiths: Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now

Q Jul 21, 2020

Show notes

Grab a cup of tea, earl grey, hot, because this week we boldly go along with special guest A. Ron Hubbard (@ARonHubbardBM) of Baldmove.com (@Baldmove) for an engaging discussion of Star Trek's quizzical Q, a cosmic trickster god with a penchant for bedeviling the Enterprise and her crew as a "test" of humanity's cosmic value. Send feedback to @podcastbutevil. Make it so!

Iago Jul 07, 2020

Show notes

Idi Amin Jun 30, 2020

Show notes

Idi Amin was a brutal dictator whose cruelty knew no bounds. Dan and Doug attempt to explore the history and psychology behind him, and why the human species seems to periodically produce leaders of this ilk, with no comparisons at all to any particular modern example. As always, please send feedback to us at @podcastbutevil, and be sure to like, rate, and subscribe.
