On this episode of Tales From Hollywoodland, the crew salutes the legendary career of Robert Mitchum, one of classic Hollywood’s most effortlessly cool and enduring stars — a true Hollywood man’s man.

From his unforgettable turns in film noir classics like Out of the Past and The Night of the Hunter to his rugged performances in Westerns, war films, and gritty dramas, Robert Mitchum carved out a career defined by toughness, charm, and a laid-back rebel attitude that Hollywood couldn’t resist. We explore how Mitchum’s screen persona, off-screen reputation, and unmistakable presence helped redefine masculinity in classic cinema.

Join us as we revisit his most iconic roles, discuss his lasting influence on generations of actors, and celebrate why Robert Mitchum remains one of the most fascinating and timeless figures in Hollywood history.

This Week on Earth Station DCU! We are not talking about Drew’s brother, but Drew Leiter and Cletus Jacobs continue their review of Peacemaker Season 2 by reviewing episode 6. Caught between Lady Shiva’s uneasy alliance and a surprise attack from the Unburied, Cassandra must choose whether to stand with her mother’s deadly “allies” or take everyone on alone in Batgirl #4, 5 & 6. Superman: Lex Luthor Special #1 follows Lex as he narrates his own twisted heroism, manipulating public perception and engineering crises to prove that Metropolis—and the world—should rely on him instead of Superman. All this plus, DC News, Shout Outs, and much, much more!

This week on Earth Station Boo, we’re joined by special guest Jake to revisit George A. Romero’s 1968 classic, Night of the Living Dead. Made on a small budget, this film changed horror forever with its raw visuals, practical effects, and intense atmosphere.

We discuss the film’s black-and-white cinematography and documentary-style approach, as well as its powerful social themes of race, fear, and unrest. We also focus on Duane Jones’ groundbreaking performance as Ben and the film’s shocking ending, which challenged traditional horror tropes.

Join us as we explore why Night of the Living Dead remains one of the most influential horror films of all time.
