I Know Movies and You Don't w/ Kyle Bruehl

In the fifth episode of Season 10: Dealer's Choice, Kyle is joined by fellow cinephile Derek Paranay to discuss the joy of nostalgia and the formative encouragement of the hero's journey in Nick Castle's ode to the everyman in the science-fiction space opera fantasy about putting theoretical skill into practical application in The Last Starfighter (1984).

In the fourth episode of Season 10: Dealer's Choice, Kyle is joined for one-on-one conversation with screenwriter August Gummere to discuss the unique blend of existential apocalyptic horror and slapstick camp comedy that made a zombie cult sensation that redefined a genre in Dan O'Bannon's Return of the Living Dead (1985).

In the third episode of Season 10: Dealer's Choice, Kyle is joined by novelist Samuel Cullado to discuss the Coen Brothers' underrated retooling of the Torah's Book of Job as it surveys the cultural upheaval and religious existential uncertainty of a Jewish-American man caught between the dimming light of rationality and the frustrating futility of faith in A Serious Man (2009).

In the second episode of Season 10: Dealer's Choice, Kyle is joined for a one-on-one conversation with sketch writer and actor Dan Bauer to discuss Jorma Taccone's absurd action satire about infantile masculinity, patriotic exaggeration, and homoerotic testosterone tensions that define the SNL sketch adaptation that is the cult film MacGruber (2010).

In the season premiere of Season 10: Dealer's Choice, Kyle is joined by script supervisor and editor Katy Baldwin for a one-on-one conversation about the inventive blending of genre, the grounded deadpan comedy towards the supernatural, and the perfect trifecta of personalities that created one of the lasting pop cultural sensations of the 80s in Ivan Reitman's popular cult classic Ghostbusters (1984).

In the season finale of Season 9 (Keep It Musical!) Kyle is joined by a panel of guests, screenwriter Katy Baldwin, editor Kristi Shimek, and novelist Samuel Cullado, to discuss the contradictions of hedonism, creativity, and expression against the backdrop of impending fascism, prejudice, and hate in the Weimer Republic that is Bob Fosse's audacious meta-musical that served as a parallel commentary for the 70s feeling of disillusionment and lost idealism in the multiple Oscar-winning Cabaret (1972).

In the forty-ninth episode of Season 9 (Keep It Musical!) Kyle is joined by script supervisor Katy Baldwin and screenwriter Reagan Osborne to discuss the foundational musical classic of abstract choreography, sensational lyricism, and exquisite composition that defined the modernized version of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet turned into a commentary about bubbling race antagonism in America in Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise's co-directed West Side Story (1961).

In the forty-eighth episode of Season 9 (Keep It Musical!) Kyle is joined by editor Kristi Shimek and musician Ben Childs to discuss the framework of Greek tragedy conceptualized by songwriting duo Howard Ashman and Alan Mencken to comment on the falseness of nostalgia, the desperation of poverty, and the dangers of feeding into societal avarice in Frank Oz's adaptation of Little Shop of Horrors (1986).

In the forty-seventh episode of Season 9 (Keep It Musical!) Kyle is joined by screenwriter Gio Maldonado and fellow podcaster Sean Ellis to discuss the irreverent cultural commentary on angry parents, societal irresponsibility, and the absurdity of systemic MPAA censorship in Trey Parker and Matt Stone's feature length addition to their vulgar television sensation in South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut (1999).

In the forty-sixth episode of Season 9 (Keep It Musical!) Kyle is joined by a panel of guests, screenwriter Katy Baldwin, artist Anna Cullado, and fellow podcaster Claire White, to discuss the gaudy artificiality of Baz Luhrmann's operatic ode to Bohemian ideals, classic love story mythology, and the power of the stage in the madcap stylized musical of musicals that is Moulin Rouge! (2001).
