Featuring a discussion of our hiatus, our return, our separate but similar journeys to IDSG, the last few years in general, the basis of the fascist movement, some appreciation of work by others including YouTubers Hbomberguy and Dan Olsen, ideas for the show going forward, and some Cantwell News...

The Same Log team - myself, Hellraiser bluray boxset star George Lea, and the consensus greatest stage Sherlock Holmes Elliot Chapman - return for New Years with a very seasonally appropriate look at John Carpenter's Halloween from 1978. The very definition of a film for which no introduction or exp

George, Elliot, and myself chat about John Carpenter's strange, unique, ominous, thoughtful, undervalued masterpiece Prince of Darkness from 1987. As usual, we get into lots of digressions which you'll hopefully find interesting. This is not a dream. (It's a podcast.)

We're putting Hannibal Digested onto hiatus for a month and doing another Halloween season of four movies through October. Segueing back via Michael Mann's Manhunter from 1986, the first movie to feature Hannibal. We all have complex thoughts about this movie, which makes for an interesting discussi

We're back, both of us, with a bonus episode to carefully dip our toes back in the brackish, fetid waters of IDSG. In this episode we talk about In Cold Blood - Truman Capote's book, the 1967 film, the two movies about Capote writing the book, and some other stuff, including alternate theories of th

As the series kicks into high gear, so does our humble podcast. In Sorbet, we see Hannibal inspired and hunting for the ingredients for a banquet. In Fromage, Hannibal makes a new friend, and isn't happy about it. A really fun discussion about two extraordinary episodes of an extraordinary show with

Here's one from the vaults, an old episode of now-defunct but fondly remembered podcast Wrong with Authority, featuring myself, Daniel, and our friends James Murphy and Kit Power. On the show, we discussed movies about history and the history they're about, each of us taking turns to host and choose

Hey patrons, here's your exclusive advance access to the next episode of Hannibal Digested, in which I go through every episode of the bizarrely wonderful, gruesome, gothic, hallucinatory, literary TV show Hannibal in the incomparable company of erudite bastards George Daniel Lea and Elliot Chapman.

As promised, here's the first part of the new collaboration between myself, the toothsome George Daniel Lea, and the frankly mouthwatering Elliot Chapman. In this inaugural episode of Hannibal Digested (after last time's preparatory chat about all things lecterian) we look at episodes 1.1 Apéritif &

We're back. Daniel and I reconvene for a chat about the coronation of Prince Charles (I know what I mean - listen to the episode) and the defenestration of Tucker Carlson. We also talk a little bit about our recent hiatus, and our imminent return to regular production of episodes. Enjoy!

So, the next stage in the journey for myself, Elliot Chapman, and George Daniel Lea is a podcast series in which we go through the entire Hannibal TV series. That's the plan anyway. As with all our previous discussions, the shows will go up at George's YouTube channel but you, my dear patrons, will

Dur-dum. Dur-dum. Dum-dum dum-dum dum-dum dum-dum DUM-dum-dum-dum DUM-dum-dum-dum and so on. Join myself, Kit Power and Elliot Chapman below decks for a great white chat about a great white movie. Patrons wade in first - the mayor insisted.

George and I take a look at the original Poltergeist and the first sequel. Elliot sits this one out but don't worry - he'll be back. He and I are tentatively planning a little podcast project for later this year. As my beloved patrons, you get this episode in advance of publication at George's YouTu

The first in what I hope will become a regular series (two a month, hopefully) of readings (by myself and possibly others) of some of the most interesting writing on fascism from within the Marxist tradition. Eagleton's essay, read above, was written in 1976, and is a characteristically elegant caps
