Cult Film Showdown: Enter the Octagon Archives - We Talk Podcasts

If you're looking for some solid entertainment we can't recommend enough checking out the latest We Talk Music podcast with Thom Hazaert. And it's a good thing he's so entertaining too, since he'll be helping to host the Oh Say Can You Stream fundraising event on April 11th.

There might just not be a single part of the music industry that Tom Hazaert hasn't touched. He's been a musician, record executive, journalist & more. This means he's made a lot of great contacts in the industry. Now he's using that history, along with his association with the David Ellefson Youth Music Foundation, to give back to the community.

That's the impetus for the Oh Say Can You Stream. Money raised from the night will go towards the School's Out initiative. It's a project providing instruments and lessons from celebrity entertainers to children in isolation during Covid-19.

All the details of how Oh Say Can You Stream came together, who's involved, and the relationship between Megadeth bassist David Ellefson and Thom Hazaert can be found on the episode. Thom also covers the decision for Ellefson to release the single "Simple Truth" early, with proceeds from the song going to the Italian Red Cross.

Plus,since both are fans of the genre, WTM host Mo and Thom take a little time to discuss the Wes Craven film Shocker. A horror cult classic, Thom produced a documentary on the film's heavy metal soundtrack for it's Shout Factory Blu-ray release . This sets up a small discussion between that metal soundtrack on Shocker and that of another 80s horror cult classic, Trick or Treat.

So put on the headphones download or hit play, and enjoy yourself with Thom Hazaert. This is a great way to get ready for the April 11th Oh Say Can You Stream live event, and we couldn't be more excited to see it take place.

The event kicks off this Saturday (4.11) at 3 PM CT/4 ET can be streamed on GMEC's Twitch and Facebook, David Ellefson's Facebook and YouTube channels, and DEYMF's Facebook page. More details on who is involved are below.

It's time to Enter the Octagon with season 11! This season, each of the guys brings 2 season themes and all 8 movies will battle it out to be the theme of season 12! The theme this episode is One Shit Wonder and the movie is Miami Connection!

The year is 1987. Motorcycle ninjas tighten their grip on Florida's narcotics trade, viciously annihilating anyone who dares move in on their turf. Multi-national martial arts rock band Dragon Sound have had enough, and embark on a roundhouse wreck-wave of crime-crushing justice. When not chasing beach bunnies or performing their hit song "Against the Ninja,"

Mark (taekwondo master/inspirational speaker Y.K. Kim) and the boys are kicking and chopping at the drug world's smelliest underbelly. It'll take every ounce of their blood and courage, but Dragon Sound can't stop until they've completely destroyed the dealers, the drunk bikers, the kill-crazy ninjas, the middle-aged thugs, the "stupid cocaine"...and the entire Miami Connection!

As always, the KFEB hosts provide ratings for the films that are based on the fun, enjoyment, and craziness of the film. These scores are tabulated and an on-going grid will keep you up to date with the search.

So sit back and enjoy the laughs as KFEB seeks a Miami Connection for some 100% pure boogaloo!
