Homosexual designers of the universe, Mannerist postmodernism, dulcet bodies of beautiful women, peaches full of ejaculate, duplicitous couples and the secret to unbridled passionate life.

Truly knowing oneself, knowing one’s culture, knowing one’s literal mother, real drag, real idols, real pain and realness (generally) — “Sometimes, life just STINKS!”

KIM KARDASHIAN + MISHIMA YUKIO + JAPANESE DRAG QUEENS.... and from within them all, a sparkling and transparent diamond enshrining all beauty and homosexual creation as told by the Amazonian Mother of all podcasting herself: Anna Khachiyan of the seminal Red Scare. Between the ecstasies of Russian bimbos and Russian PHD holders, against the macho misunderstanding of Mishima, into the realm of contemporary fertility goddesses, Chi Chi and Anna derive an entirely new reality of self creation, self image, self destruction and real (in)human beauty from Kim Kardashian, her coffee table book SELFISH (2014) and the Miwa Akihiro starring BLACK LIZARD (1968).

Full seven hour odyssey available only on Patreon: patreon.com/imsopopular

On a colossal odyssey through the streets of Tokyo, Samuel and Chi Chi submerge themselves into a sea of memories from Japan past and future, discussing the music of transcendental girl group PERFUME and the quintessential fragrance MONOCLE 3: SUGI COMME DES GARÇONS. Against a breath of fog settled over Yoyogi Park, hot pink sparkling outfits in Harajuku, the warbling voices of Yakitori staff and, finally, the glimmering waters beneath Tokyo Sky Tree, two white gays in Japan mine the country for all it's worth and unearth in its broken culture, sodomized idols and uncanny pop music a lust for life's beauties so intense no atom bomb or tsunami could stop it. Manhandling reality and twisting it into your most perverse fantasies, draining your soul into the void for fame and surmounting national calamity for art... Love the world: spinning world, spinning girl, chocolate disco. A rainbow colored laser beam pierces me through the heart and the world is an endless resetting digital memory of algorithms protested and resisted. Japanese Pop Music Is God and Perfume Is His Prophet.

A very special celebration of I'M SO POPULAR for its one hundredth official episode. Recorded alone in a karaoke booth in Higashi Nakano, Tokyo, Japan.

ISP all star John of Telepathy Party Inc. returns to contemplate two erotic french novels by desperately horny women: Annie Ernaux's SIMPLE PASSION and Pauline Réage's STORY OF O. New theological and worldly pleasures are realized in the navel gazing clits of polite European women baring all... whipped, strapped to a wall and waiting in a state of suspension for the phone to ring. New religions and richer lives await you in a giallo BDSM dungeon of red carpets, bitter ecstasies and labial rings....

It's the third annual ISP Halloween special and Glen Rockney from The Back Wall & Rare Candy podcasts joins to marvel in fear at the most gruesome, horrid and offensive movies ever screened in the I'M SO POPULAR hellfire with three low budget v-cinema masterpieces directed by Yamanouchi Daisuke: RED ROOM, GIRL HELL 1999 and CELLULOID NIGHTMARES. More sexual violence than you could literally ever ask for, a blow dryer in the mouth, a light bulb in an orifice, a schoolgirl condemned to hell beyond imagination, incest, car accidents and a bath filled with mensural blood. Smear it all over your face: Is it all just a movie? Is there an exit? Why am I watching this? Everything promised in the title and more...
