A live action heap of fun! This week, Peaches and Michael get trashy in celebration of 1987’s THE GARBAGE PAIL KIDS MOVIE! In addition to discussing this contested cult classic’s place as a prime piece of gateway grossness, our hosts ruminate on the popular trading card series that inspired its creation. Joining the conversation is legendary film programmer and critic Jesse Hawthorne Ficks, who recounts his own storied history of bringing these refuse-laden tykes to midnight movie audiences. Then, iconic horror host John Dimes (aka Dr. Sarcofiguy) stops by to shed some light on why his love for the puerile antics of the titular characters endures, despite a much-maligned history. From toe-munching gators to frothy projectile vomit, this episode has it all! Go!
