Foreign Invader / Movie Marriage

Friends with Benefits (2011) / In the Realm of the Senses (1976)

Sajda and Conrado test their marriage with movies about having lots of sex.

The great Caden Mark Gardner comes on to talk about Under the Skin, the 2013 movie directed by British filmmaker Jonathan Glazer and starring Scarlett Johansson as a literal foreign invader - she's a mysterious alien who has come to earth to prey on unsuspecting men... kind of? It's a pretty oblique movie, but that doesn't make it any less of a masterpiece. At least both Caden and I think it is.

Dragon Ball started out as a manga written and drawn by Akira Toriyama in 1984, in 1986 a animated series of the manga began to air in Japanese television, and almost 40 years later, the fans' love for Goku and his adventures remains as strong as ever. I am joined by Dragon Ball megafan P. J. Mancuso to talk about a show that was a huge part of my childhood.

Drake is one of the biggest pop artists working today. I think you could make the case he's the most successful pop musician of the last decade. He's been certified as the highest digital sales artist in the US and holds a gazillion records with the Billboard charts. And he's from Canada! Isn't that crazy? To talk about this very famous man, I am joined by Ben Barzilai. He is the host of The Skip Button, a wonderful podcast covering some of the most critically reviled artists in pop music, including Coldplay, The Black Eyed Peas, and of course, Nickelbak.

Today on Foreign Invader we are talking about maybe THE greatest action director of all time. John Woo started his career in Hong Kong where he became a pioneer of both the "heroic bloodshed" and "gun fu" genre with movies like A Better Tomorrow, The Killer and Hard Boiled. Then, he made a move to America, where he directed such action extravaganzas as Broken Arrow, Face/Off and Mission Impossible II. To talk about him i have a very special guest. Justin Decloux is a filmmaker, a film writer, a distributor, the host of FOUR different movie podcasts, and one of my favorite people on the internet. He is also a huge fan of action movies, and of John Woo in particular. It was a pleasure having him on the show, and I hope you enjoy the episode!

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is most well known in America for being the wife of the Jonas brother Nick. What some people might not know, is that she is one of the biggest movie stars back in her home country of India. So, I wanted to take the opportunity to use this podcast to get a little more familiarized with the big stars of Bollywood, and what better way to do it than through the biggest crossover star we know in America. My guest to talk about this is someone who knows much more about Bollywood than I do. He is a writer and podcaster whose shows include Queer & Now (a podcast about queer cinema) and It Pod to Be You (a podcast about romantic comedies): it's Manish Mathur!
