New episode with friend of the show Chris Lazarus Stachiw from The Kulturecast.

The Begley household is all in (well, except for Lady in the Water) when it comes to Mr. M. Knight Shyamalan, so we were excited to watch his latest film, Knock at the Cabin (2023). Friend of the show, Chris Stachiw, who wasn't as excited, joins me to chat about this pre-Apocalyptic film. Based on t...

Holy moly, this thing ended up being four hours long! Don't worry, most of it is taken up by interviews with cast members, and the writers/directors.

Wake Up Heavy: Recollections of Horror

I started the Wake Up Heavy podcast in essence to have a creative outlet. As mentioned in the introductory episode and on the WUH website, I have dabbled in publishing, writing, and printmaking over the years, but have done nothing creative for the past eight or so. The subject matter seemed like a no-brainer to me, but how to present it? Video reviews? A blog? Well, I'm not quite comfortable with the idea of filming myself, both technically speaking and just seeing my face splashed across a screen, and writing feels like such a chore to me in my old age.

What else is there? A podcast? Hmmm... Well, my family likes podcasts, my wife listens to a ton of them, and we all enjoy Lore and Myths and Legends when we're driving around. But how does one, who has never recorded anything in his life, go about this? Turns out it's pretty dang easy, which may explain why there are so many out there. I had most of the equipment at my disposal, and the rest was very easy to obtain. And, as it turns out, I kinda like doing it! I'm not a huge fan of listening to my own voice, but otherwise I'm enjoying diving into these beloved movies, doing the necessary research, and tinkering with the tools required to make it all happen.

You can follow WUH here and on the website, iTunes, GooglePlay, Spotify, and SoundCloud. I hope to put out an episode every month, with some additional short 'casts thrown in whenever possible. A "season" will last about six months, with a possible break at that point.

As always, thanks so much for stopping by. --Mark
