- #32 Sins of Desire!
Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 32 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!
It's finally Jim Wynorski time, as we check out his 1993 debut erotic thriller Sins of Desire! It's got what you'd call an all-star erotic thriller cast, with Jay Richardson, Tanya Roberts, Delia Sheppard, Becky LeBeau, Monique Parent, Jan-Michael Vincent, Nick Cassavetes, Carrie Stevens and Gail Thackray all showing up! That is one crazy cast. There are maybe less thrills than one might expect from the erotic thriller genre, but there are explosions and shootouts and plasma balls and awesome Becky LeBeau songs and also a genuinely beautifully shot finale in a spooky abandoned film studio.
Plus, we chat about the life and times of the one and only Tanya Roberts. She's done it all, from Charlie's Angels to James Bond, with some truly unexpected detours in between, including a rock 'n' roll wrestling movie with Roddy Piper, and The Pandora Directive, the fourth game in the Tex Murphy point and click adventure game series.
Special guest Jim Ether says that's a good game, by the way. Also, please help our buddy Jimmy out by contributing to his Patreon so he can make more delightful arts!

Three agents bust a gang smuggling drugs in watermelons, but then get suspended because of the goddamn bureaucracy so they go on a camping holiday to the woods. It's kind of like Takeshi Kitano's Sonatine, when the yakuza family goes on holiday to the beach, but less nihilistic and with less suicidal imagery and honestly probably not all that much like Sonatine at all now that I think about it.Plus, we look at the life and times of the star of the film, Suzi Simpson! She only did one Sidaris movie, and really only had a major role in one other, but she did write an unproduced comedy script which she said in 2001 is kind of like Caddyshack, so someone should really hit her up and get that thing made.Hey, why not call us on our hotline?(724) 2GO-GO69or(724) 246-4669!1 hr 42 min
- #30 Bikini Goddesses!
Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 30 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!
This time around, we're joined by Jaymz from the NBA-Straya podcast, and Josh from the terrifically popular rock and roll band Househats! And we all check out David DeCoteau's 1996 film Bikini Goddesses, in which a hapless American teenager is sent to work at his father's hotel on the Greek seaside, and manages to free three Greek demi-Goddesses from millenia of imprisonment. Except, being a DeCoteau film from the mid-'90s, Greece is actually Romania, and the teen in question is in his late 20s. Also there is literally only one other actor credited in the film and everyone else is a local whose name DeCoteau quickly forgot. At least some of the dialogue is completely unintelligible. Most of the plot happens in the first 15 minutes, and then the last 15 minutes, and the rest is interminably lengthy sex scenes.
Of course, considering there were few other people of note involved, how could we do our first DeCoteau film without talking about the great man himself? In around 35 years, he's done almost 150 films - everything from hardcore movies to kids fare!

Now you do! And you also get to hear us talk about it, along with our special returning guest, Ash from For the Story podcast! Dangerous Touch is about Amanda Grace, a sex therapist/psychoanalyst/radio host who falls for a mysterious and enticing man named Mick. But what does he want from her? The answers will shock and surprise you! Well, some of them will. Obviously at least one of the answers is "sexy times".And, of course, we also talk about the life and times of the great Lou Diamond Phillips, and find out about a bunch of really odd films he's done, like the 2016 film where he played Richard Ramirez. That seems very strange, but it happened!Hey, why not call us on our hotline?(724) 2GO-GO69or(724) 246-4669!2 hr 3 min
- #28 Fit to Kill!Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 28 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!We're back to the work of Andy Sidaris, and this time we're checking out the final film in his epic Kane trilogy: 1993's Fit to Kill! The agents are trying to keep a Russian diamond from being stolen by Kane, but is he the one they really need to worry about? If the first two in the trilogy were a little too straight-ahead and easily comprehensible for your tastes, boy are you in luck this time - Andy's back to his old tricks and pretty much everyone in the movie is planning 16 steps ahead and double crossing everyone else. It's really something. Plus: the stunning remote-control helicopter on remote-control helicopter air battle you've been waiting for.And of course as always we dig deep into the life and times of someone involved in the film! This episode, it's the great Roberta Vasquez, Playmate of the Month for November 1984, and former department store security guard and cop!Also, according to the July 1985 issue of Playboy she recorded an album in Hamburg with January 1982 Playmate Kimberly McArthur which was never released, so it seems like we should all get together and demand it finally sees the light of day. Gotta be worth it, right?Hey, why not call us on our hotline?(724) 2GO-GO69or(724) 246-4669!2 hr 1 min
- #27 And When She Was Bad!
Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 27 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!
This time around, we check out the 1973 super weird softcore drama And When She Was Bad (aka There Was a Little Girl), which was written by, directed by, photographed by, edited by, and produced by Gary Graver. Oh, and he also appears in two completely separate non-speaking roles in the same scene. This movie is really bananas, on practically every level. It is SO WEIRD. Especially the music. The music is amongst the weirdest you will ever hear in a movie.
And, of course, we talk about the life and times of Gary Graver. How could we talk about anyone else this episode? Graver directed everything from horror to erotic thrillers to exploitation to sex comedies, and also did about 150 porn films under the name Robert McCallum. He was also cinematographer on over 200 films. Some of those were for his good friend Orson Welles!
Coincidentally, between the time we recorded this episode and the time it's going up, it was announced that they finally wrapped post-production on Welles' The Other Side of the Wind (which Graver shot), some 48 years after they started filming it. Now that's bananas!

It's half energetic far-out melodrama, and half static law office drama - quite literally, in the sense that both parts are written and directed by separate teams and share no actors. So that's frankly unusual. Also it turns out the film as a whole is weirdly divisive amongst the cast of Get Soft, and probably not in the way you'd expect!Plus, we talk about the life and times of both Eber and Nélida Lobato, the director and star of the film! Director and star of the better half, that is. They were dancers from Argentina, who made it sort of big in the US, then went to Paris and made it pretty big, and then went back to Argentina, and became superstars! You will find out more about them on this episode than any other English language source, promise!Hey, why not call us on our hotline?(724) 2GO-GO69or(724) 246-4669!1 hr 51 min
- #25 Hard Hunted
Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 25of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!
We're back to the beautiful world of Andy Sidaris, as we continue our look at the final 7 Sidaris family films, with 1993's Hard Hunted! It's the middle part of a (sort of) trilogy, you know, so it's the darkest one. Kane's back, and he's got his hands on a nuclear trigger! An agent dies! Donna gets amnesia and also gets kidnapped! Nicole gets ruthless and will not let anyone stand in her way to get Donna back.
Also for some reason Kane is no longer Pat Morita - he's RJ Moore, son of Sir Roger. That's more odd than dark though.
Plus, we talk about the life and times of one of the one and only Dona Speir, star of 7 Andy Sidaris films (but not the Andy Sidaris film Seven, or the David Fincher film either).

1 hr 50 min - #24 Alien Abduction: Intimate Secrets!Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 24 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!We've been talking about it for quite a while, and now finally, the gang are joined by special guest Ash from very popular podcast Hey Brother Can You Spare A Dime, You Know I Got A Jonesin' For Porno But Only 'Cause I Like The Stories (better known as [For the Story](https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/avery-mitchell/for-the-story))! They're sort of like Get Soft, but with hardcore.We check out the sci-fi new-age weirdness of 1996's Alien Abduction: Intimate Secrets. Three women go...somewhere in Europe. Their car breaks down. What happens next will astonish you! But honestly it won't if you've read the title (they get abducted by an alien).Plus, we talk about the life and times of one of the film's stars, Pia Reyes! She was a champion lacrosse player, appeared in music videos, became a Playboy Playmate, had a career in b-movies, and...well, this time what happens next genuinely will astonish you! It's a truly bananas story.Also, somehow these shows keep going over 2 hours lately? That's puzzling. Hey, why not call us on our new hotline and tell us what you think about that?(724) 2GO-GO69or(724) 246-4669!Or just tell us some things about your cats or something. Either is good with us.2 hr 16 min
- #23 Playback!Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 23 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks!This episode, we let our very special guest, Anthony, the creative force behind the erotic thriller documentary [We Kill For Love](http://wekillforlove.com/), pick the film! And he said, hey, what about Playback from 1996? It's got George Hamilton, Harry Dean Stanton, Shannon Whirry and Tawny Kitaen! And it's from the director of the ill-fated 1994 Fantastic Four movie, and it's co-written by the writer of Leprechaun 3! It's all about corporate intrigue, and marriage problems, and trying out super fancy sex clubs to fix those marriage problems! And we said, holy smokes, that's a good choice.Also, bonus, if you ever wondered what it sounds like when Dr Snuggles tries to record a show with a sinus infection, you're in luck!Plus, who else could we focus on for the Softcore Spotlight than the star of the film, Tawny Kitaen? From Indiana Jones-esque bondage adventures, to doing gymnastics on the hoods of cars for Whitesnake, to cartoon voice acting, to Celebrity Rehab and more, she's done it all, for real.2 hr 30 min
