Mental Platypus episodes

  • MP44 - Out of Platypus

    We close the book on our Frank Talk miniseries with what is very easily the best of the films we've discussed, Out of Sight. Clooney! J-Lo! Soderberg! White Boy Bob! Soooooo good!

  • MP42 - Heaven's Platypeeps

    Do NOT be taken in by the episode number, this is far from the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything. It is in fact, a discussion of a severely disappointing movie full of gratuitous sweat, and questionable accent, and that's just coming off of the film's star, Alec Baldwin. That's right, we're tackling Heaven's Prisoners, because we said we would, and boy is it a dud!

  • MP40 - Little Platypus Tate

    Very importantly, on this episode, Jason and Jared discuss the second of Scott Frank's 90s screenwriting credits, and Jodie Foster's cinematic directorial debut, Little Man Tate. Even more importantly, they get down to the bottom of all this Pig versus Babe: Pig in the City malarkey.

  • MP39 - Platypus Again

    Our series on the 90's films written by Scott Frank begins with 1991's Dead Again, directed by Kenneth Branagh. Also, a lot of recommendations (highly recommended), and a little bit of Mark Lanegan talk (R.I.P.).

  • MP38 - The Boy Named Platypus

    How does one evaluate a new, solid, strong album released more than four decades into a creatively restless artist's career? That is the question at the heart of this episode, in Jason and Jared discuss, at length, Elvis Costello and the Imposters' very good new album, The Boy Named If.

  • MP37 - Two Turntables and a Platypus

    An innocent discussion of Beck's discography gets excessively heated as Jared says he could take or leave the indelible classic, "Where it's At," which Jason can simply not abide.
