Failure to Launch - Roger Corman’s ”The Fantastic Four”

The Disinformed Podcast

02/07/22 • 104 min

On a dysfunctionally dynamic edition of Disinformed, we chat about one of the forgotten chapters in comic-character cinema history - Roger Corman's doomed iteration of The Fantastic Four. How did this film get made? Why wasn't it released? We'll chat about the conspiracies and climate surrounding the flick, as well as some general filmic superhero history in this week's installment. https://linktr.ee/disinformedpodcast Sources: Fantastic Four Trailer Land Shark!!!!https://flightstightsandmovienights.com/review-index/the-list/

Stanford Tree Mascot

The Disinformed Podcast

12/16/19 • 45 min

In this vibrant, vivacious & verdant episode, executed with a pizzicato flair and brought to you by Seat Freaks, our heroes discuss concert experiences, fumble flusk the intro, salute Saliva, mispronounce Margot, ban the band, fluster Michael, philoSophosize, meet Merrily Manson, Hail the Evil Empire, allegedly slander Stanford, love Gordon Lightfoot, jet-pack the Jizz Gremlin, then discuss the mysterious inner-workings of the Leland Stanford Cousin Farcking Crew of Beaver Bashing Bastards, Marching Band, Hair Care and Tire Emporium. Corrections:

Apparently Michael can’t find ANYTHING mentioning the LSJUMB being banned from the Sun Devil Stadium. We guess he was ... DISINFORMED
Same for the airline. We guess he can’t trust anything he had heard about Stanford.
They’re just the Cardinal, not the Cardinals.

Save Me, San Francisco - The Spanish Flu Epidemic

The Disinformed Podcast

07/20/20 • 113 min

On this week's infectious episode our heroes flash back to the early 20th Century's pandemic, The Spanish Flu, to evaluate American mask backlash in its infancy. Michael also professes his undying adoration for Train, Shane hurls hipster epistles, and Jon finds a way to work poop and peener into the show yet again. Top that with a heaping helping of Tim Travel with Ebony and Co in the misspelled saga known as My Immortal, and you have an episode primed to ruin your mind.
