Episode Eighty-three - Samantha Kuester

Meet Samantha Kuester, the chief costume designer for “Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return.” Samantha discusses her career, as well as Jonah’s "Many Loves of Hercules" toga and his many wardrobe malfunctions. Meanwhile, Captain Deana Dolphin of the “MSTie Minute" drops by to cohost with Ryan and Greg. The podcast gang discuss their original comedy horror radio play, a Halloween special parody of “War of the Worlds.” Then it’s off to celebrate the campy Sam Raimi/Bruce Campbell horror classic, “Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn.” And the gang agrees that the haunting “Blade Runner 2049” is as near perfect a piece of sci-fi cinema as they’ve seen in years. Kate talks about rock musicians who are also scientists, a new species of Madagascan orchid, and the horrifying cat gadget, “Licki Brush.” In the Mini Soda Review, Deana, Ryan and Greg enthuse over Cock and Bull’s Cherry Ginger Beer. There’s a Very Adamant Stance against dog shirts that sort of fizzles out when writer Erica Rodriguez revolts mid-sketch. All this, and a General Mills Halloween play rehearsal grown horribly awkward when the Fruit Brute throws his script down and storms offstage, sobbing uncontrollably because he can’t work another minute with that stage-stealing hack Count Chocula, while a furious Frankenberry hurls profanity-laden abuse at both of them for their lack of professionalism, Boo Berry steals snacks from the dressing room, and a hungover Yummy Mummy furtively tugs on a flask of whiskey and tries to keep his shakes under control, on this week’s episode of the Revival League Podcast!
