There are a thousand UFO sightings reported around the world every month. Ninety
percent of these sightings can be explained, but ten percent cannot. Officially and
unofficially, the US military has been investigating UFOs since nineteen forty seven. Their
top secret goal is to find out what's behind these unexplained sightings. The Pentagon
classifies them as unusual airborne anomalies, but a better term is X files.
Join us now as Mac one one and Commander Cobra explore these unsolved cases uf
all incidents that baffle even the US military. This is macmloney's Military X files

okay, thank you Raven for joining us. And so why don't we can
do this? Why don't we take a commercial break now and everyone can come
down, and when we've back, we'll be back with ten questions for one
one I'm from super fan Susan kay now. One. She asked me,
should I run the questions? You know, should you run the questions by
me first? You know, in case there was something there that might insult
you or something, right, I said no, I said no, just
do it. Yeah, just you know he doesn't care, right, that's
right? Okay, Yeah, I don't care. Um, we were going
to rolls off me. Okay, all right, So there's a joke.
The water off a duck's back was how to bring the duck into it?
I didn't introduce I didn't introduce UFO an hour now though here in the studio
out, Hello mackay everyone. He just threw a beer on I was in
the middle of drinking a beer at the moment. Street. Well you know,
um, you sleep at that porst. You sleep in the porst sometimes
the push No, I haven't. Actually, the only one that's registered is
my wife's, so I don't mind. Is up on top of a lift.
I haven't even looked at it. And this year Ages, well it
hasn't moved in Ages. But every now and then I'll walk by and I'll
lift up the cover a little bit, you know, like look under a
skirt and say, Hi, how I get what but a fifty years you
know, fifty year old. Wow. So anyway, we were talking earlier
about off Lewis and I attended an event this weekend down in the Massive Point,
Massachusetts, which is down near the Cape if you pavilion went the area
down near the Bourne, the Cape Clyde Canal, the Bourne River Bridge,
Pourne Bridge, so on. And this is for almost for our troops,
and you know, you hear us talking about them all the time, but
this is the first time that I've actually gone to one of their events.
And so basically what they did was that they threw a lot of donations,
with help and supplies and everything, they built this house, really nice house
down the Massive Point, Massachusetts for a woman named Rebecca Man who was a
war aren't dooson chiefer in the army and after two years two tours of combat
in Afghanistan had to have both their legs amputated. So this is what we
always talk about on the show, and I was actually able to see it
first. He and where homeshot troopers go in and they with judge donations only
and with donated materials and lots of volunteers, including about four or five of
the New England patrons you know, built this house, put in the landscaping,
sawing and so forth, and then when it's complete, they basically rip
up the mortgage and they give the keys to the recipient. And the recipient
is one of our veterans from Post nine to eleven Afghan combat who came home
with missing a limb or whatever, and they just need something to kind of
put them back into the real world and nothing will really put them back in
there, but this helps. Okay, they give them this house and they
don't have the mortgage payment hanging over their heads, and so they can go
out in lead I hate to use this phrase, but then go out and
lead a normal life, okay. And it turns out that a lot of
them who get these houses do go out and they grow out and they just
lead really successful lives because they get that push because hey man, no mortgage
or which I think is very cool. And the house itself is designed just
for them. I mean, it sounds crazy, but it's a it's a
house designed for them, and it's it's not just cordwood. I mean I
looked at this, Houz. This is like a really very very cool house.
They've built three hundred and forty nine of these things already, three hundred
and forty nine these houses go between two and fifty and three hundred thousand bucks
just around the country. Are just around the country, in forty eight states.
And the problem is the problem is well, first of the big problem
is is that the Veterans Administration should be doing this. They don't. So
we have to rely on people, you know, organizations, say homes throughout
troops. Okay, but the problem is that they there's a there's a thousand
people on the waiting list, a thousand people on the waiting list, and
and these people. I taught to our friend, you know, General Tom,
and a couple of people there, and they just I said, man,
how are you going to do that? He says, We're just going
to do it. You know, we'll figure it out as we go along.
And they've already done three hundred and fifty of these houses. So anyway,
great, just great people, great, very patriotic ceremony. They had
these guys Vietnam Vet Marines, biker gang and stuff. You know, they
came with all the colors and stuff and they were all dudes, but they're
still doing it. And just a lot of veterans and their families and stuff.
There was probably three hundred people at this place. I was expecting maybe
twenty five and so, but it was a crowd time. It was nice.
It was nice. It was a nice afternoon. So Homestrut Troops just
google them and and donate. They're they're really a good organization. Ninety cents
and your dollar goes to veterans and done. These people will never be the
same. So I think it's up just up to watch to honor these people
and help them out because you know, they were over there fighting for us,
so we could do stupid crap like this. So Homestrot Troops very nice,
very nice ceremony, very nice event. They put it on very well,
and um you know, um we like them. So Homeshrot Troops please
google them. And then we were talking about this as nothing through UFOs.
But I'm going to just say the name Martha Stewart, what is going on?
What's going on? Why? Why? Why? If Sport's Illustrated is
trying to attract I don't know, males between eighteen and twenty five, why
would you put this old bet we're gonna have to cut that. Why would
you put why would you put her on the cover? Well, I think
they're trying to show to the world that the cover of Sports Illustrated is not
an exclusive exclusive to the perfectly cloft, the perfect toned body of the female
who made that decision because women would say that those people that are on in
that photoshop, yes, not real women. They have been like remanufactured redone
to the math. I mean, let's face it, there's a lot of
cosmetic stuff going on. But they, I think Sports Illustrator said, you
know what, we want to show inclusiveness and our Yeah, okay, all
right, Well mission not accomplished, which it really goes out and runs out
together. I mean, I always wanted to be the first of the news
stand. Yeah, like Barnes and not this. Ye're going to get two
hundred of them and then boom, get it, there'll be no line.
Don't want have in the back seat of my car. And what she's doing,
she's she's was flashing the old puppies, right? Is that the angle
a little bit of cleavage? They not so bad. I mean, I
think the shots that I saw on TV. Yes, it was a sports
show in the Boston area, and it was tasteful, the really blatant weird.
That's that's actually good. I'm not going to buy sports illustrated to taste,
right, I want to see tasteful guilt. I want to see women
in miniscule bikinis. I'm sorry, that's that's why you're there. I mean,
I could you know, if I want to see the sports, have
nothing to do it. If I want to see Martha Stewart, I mean,
no offense. I just find out where Snoop Dog is and there you
go, and they're hanging out together on a beach. That's cool. You
should have been there. With her, I just say a show. How
do you know he wasn't? Can you say a show of hands? You
know who believes Snoop is hitting that? I see that big green and yeah
it was unanimous folks anyway, but listen, so when Raven, have you
seen the cover? How to him? You know? Yeah? I guess
Okay, he's stoned all the time. That explains it. Raven, have
you seen the cover of What's Illustraight with Martha Stewart? Um? Have I
seen it? Or have I made it all my wallpaper in my house?
Yes? Really? Yeah? So you're so you're into it? You're yes?
Okay, yes, I love little peaks. Okay, I think the
war you could have said dinosaurs. And watching the show right now, they're
saying what are they talk what do they talk about? They're supposed to be
talking about us? Right? So anyway, well, why don't we do
this? We have good looking eighty year old plus women all the time.
Yeah, that one might not be unanimous, but why don't we do this?
Why don't we take a break now and com down, regroup and when
we right back after this, he'll same too. Macloney's Milk Rag Stuff show

computer service company that I worked for, and said, my computer is filled

good vibes and became became best friends after that. Can I just interject something?
Yeah, okay, I my computer was stalled and I had a book
deadline to you know, get too, so you know, I called the
service company one one, but actually my neighbor actually recommended one one, and
he came over and he fixed it in like maybe five minutes, and then

was great, but then he freagan bills me for three hours. That's how
I met one number nine. Please, so the flophouse story was not true?

irresistible ladies man skills or are you just a natural life? Well? Wow,
apparently I'm a natural because I just discovered rediscovered by high school yearbook and
some of the ladies in my yearbook who signed it made some comments in that
kind of a direction, and I'll get a kick out of it. When
I read him, I'm going I can't believe she actually wrote this, because

Number eight please Susan all right? Number three? Number three? True,
you once asked a co worker on a date after suffering an injury on the
job at a pillow factory, and after you passed out from the side of
your own blood in front of her, you still asked her out on a
date. True. Wow, I'll pay you man. That is the basiest
thing I've ever heard. If my wife at least a couple of people who
are still today that we're in the office, remember that basic it was in
the office? Is in the office? Really? Yeah? It's like the
jfk assassination. You know who? You would cut myself on a cutting knife
that cuts up pillow ticket at a pillow factory. He cuts himself, folks
clad Yeah, the race like a razor sharp cutting electric cutting tool. I'm
sure, all right, So I said oh, gee, I gotta go
to the hospital. So I went down to the office to just to have
to punch out or anything. I just said something, Hey, look,
I need to go to the office. Can you just call somebody to give
me a ride? Yes, because I don't want to drive myself. I
blow it all over my shifter and my messta you were thinking, I said,
okay, I'll give you a ride. So I'm in the office waiting
to get the ride, and I'm sucking on my fingers and it's like a
kind of a couple of fingers and I passed out right in front of this
beautiful woman, one of the secretaries there. Yes, I mean I wasn't
out for long. I was like, maybe as I was out for a
couple of seconds. Okay, it doesn't matter, go ahead. She was
this beautiful Portuguese girl from some of her Her name was Fernanda. Oh,
go ahead. Her American name was Barbara. But a lot of us in
here and about as it turns out, okay, good, go ahead,
please continue, we'll fill you in l So I sort of lusted after her
for a while, yes, And then after that incident, maybe it's about
a week or so afterwards, I started asking her out and she said yes,
yeah, yeah, Wow, that's great. Many yeah, yeah,
my hero, that's that would take a lot of guts. Yeah, I
know, but I was I was young, hadn't done that. I didn't
think about any kind of what does that look like? What does that feel
like? I just just did stuff. Wow. Okay, all right,
let's go on any number four about it. It's going to affect my view
of my personality or anything. Just did it? Number four police Susan Savans.
Number four. We've heard you mentioned your time and genuine devotion spent as
a roadie for the Rolling Stones. What an amazing and experience and opportunity.
How did you happen to come upon this cool job? Well, the myth
continues. They wanting the legend all true stories. It might sound like myths,
but true stories. Um. I always if something I always wanted to
do is be involved in music productions, theater, rock and roll somehow,
so I knew that if I joined the Union, I A T S which
is also movies and theater. And it's a little starbug you see at the
end of the end of the credits when you watch a movie that's star thing.
I A t SC Essential Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, okay, and
I knew they had a local in New Hampshire, so I signed up.
They kind of tested me to see if I would you be good with light
sound, you know, a grip or whatever, and just tested my skills
such as a little bit. It was obvious that I had the skills,
so I signed me and pay my dues. And one of the locals in
Massachusetts, they're running out of guys to do big shows that the same in
the area, so they're looking for volunteers workers from other locals. So the
Rolling Stones that come into town to Foxboro, Massachusetts, and it was a
down law production and he needed some guys. Whether union and non union didn't
matter him. And the word came to me. I forget how that happened,
But it wasn't like Don Low called me. It was some production company
down there asked, you know what locals around them might have available talents?
So how did you become Keith's best friend? So Nike A long story short.
After doing Steel Wheels in nineteen eighty nine, it's going towards the end
of the setup where we're almost done. The stages up all the stuff's up
and we're loading in the instruments, and the guy in the truck says,
okay, one, these are here. You go. These are two of
Keith Richard's guitars. You want to take them to stage left, to the
guitar tech. Get a guitar tech. Name doesn't matter. Ahead, I
said, these is Keith Richard's guitars. Oh my god. So I walked
them back there and I knew the stones were coming in shortly. Yes,
but I did not meet Keith Richards in the flesh. I did not meet
him. I'd like to say that I did, and that's the story.
But I did you lick them? Did you lick his? I did not
wash my hands for a week. I didn't answer the question. I was
there doing the show. The setup took about a week that I believe that
hopefully the next question isn't about hot, is it? Because that will be
even next I please? So it was a please alrighty? Can you tell
us a fun fact or story about your time in the service? Uh?
Yeah, I got a fun fact. Four years of fun facts. I've
been fortunately my service career being in the United States Navy serving my country from
nineteen sixty eight through nineteen seventy three. One of my one of my career
moves was being electronics technician where I learned my trade. I was a year
and a half. I was in an electronics school up in Great Lakes,
Illinois. So I was sent to a duty station that was fun, Virginia
Beach. Had my own apartment via bought them Mustang. Yes the ship.
I was the playground of college girls on the East Coast. Go ahead,
go ahead, driving home almost every weekend up by ninety five. If that
wasn't good enough having that duty, I was sent to Kinnectic Rhode Island,
Port, Rhode Island, and I didn't even know they had a Navy base
in Newport, Rhode Island. Newport, home of all the mansions, home
of the folk and Jazz festival, three hour ride from my house. This
is the well the way Vietnam War was raging. This is what he's Vietnam
War was raging. I lost four or five of my mates from high school
uh in Vietnam, sadly, and what do you stuck in? I was
kind of winding down and then go ahead, but but but you have to
get to the good part now. But The good part is that I'm in
Newport, Rhode Island. These are my new new orders, and they didn't
know what they were going to do with me. They said, well,
you've been assigned to a ship. I said, a ship. Great,
where is it? Well, it's still in the Mediterranean. It's coming back,
but it's taken sweet time coming back, and we'll be back for like
another month or two. So, uh so what do I do that.
I'm worried, like how I'm not gonna be swabing decks or something or cleaning
things. They said, you know what, gring Et, you know electronics
technician, We got we got a plan for you. How would you like
to work in the motion picture projection studio where we do two things. We
loaned out all the movies to the fleet. But in the meantime, excuse
me, he's crying, folks. In the meantime, we have to make
sure all these movies are in good shape before we issue them out. Yes,
we have to check them for splices and things like that. So I'm
in a studio running every piece of film, and each movie comes in like
twenty twenty minute reels, so it takes a few of them for to our
movie and I run them through this machine that stops at every splice. You
have a chance of looking at that splice recording it. If if it looks
like the spices in good shape, you move on. If you have to
redo the splice, you have to reglue it. And when I'm done with
that, we're free to just watch movies. We had this like this mini
theater about I don't know ten seats in it, ten movie seats. I
don't know where they got these movie seats from. And if there's any projectors
that need to be worked on, I worked on something other than that.
I'm watching movies and then okay, here's some movies that just came in from
a ship. Let's check those out. So there's like three of us work
and they're doing this. We get more movies and then watch some more movies.
Well, listen, it sounds like me and at four o'clock and you
have to do But it sounds like me in films for my country. It
sounds like me in film school watching movies all day, passing out and four
in the afternoon. You know what's the difference to me? I was punching
holes in the ocean looking for com Yeah. No, I feel bad for
Switchy because Switchy was under the North Pole for somebody ears, so we should
probably go on to the next one. Really the north pole. But I
punched a lot of holes in the ocean. I bet you did, Susan.
Please next. This is ten questions everyone's want to ask one one allegedly.
Okay, I'm going to move them out of order here. Okay,
just went into that topic there. Yes, So, first of all,
I would like to thank one one and all of you for your service.
I've always has admired everyone who serves or has served our country. It's such
an honorable, selfless decision to dedicate yourself to represent and protect our country.
Well, you're welcome. Still, one one, Is it true that you
were torn between going to film school or joining the military. I didn't know
that being in the military was going to be so easy that way. Oh
really, Yet it was kind I was kind of sweating. I was.
I was actually in Northeastern University in nineteen sixty seven in a program electrical engineering,
and I was just barely making it, just barely getting by, and
I'm going, I don't know, this isn't for me. The problem was
if I was transferring to another school. I lost my two S deferment because
I wouldn't graduate with my original class. Yes, yes, yes, boom,
there goes a two S deferment and now you're subject to the draft.
This was in nineteen sixty eight. Not a good year. Next stop,
I said, you know what I'm gonna. I'm gonna nip it in the
bud right now and enlist in the United States Navy. Wow. Okay,
it was an easy peasy that that put me on the ninety day delay program
so I could finish out the summer and I didn't have to report to the
Boston Naval Shipyard until October. Wow. See And then uh so it all
turned out well right the Vietnam WAT and then laid I mean to bootcamp.
Bootcamp was easy. And here's the fight. I think about bootcamper who camps
only a couple of months, and it has ever said boot camp is easy?
Ever? Have you ever heard that? Not for this. The only
thing that was an annoyance factor to naval bootcampers was firefighting school. Yes,
so one day exercise of going into a building that would be intentionally set up.
It was like a concrete bunker. You potentially set on like an oil
fire. You had to go in where your where your mask? Would you
got to clear your mask while you're in the building. Yes, that you
can walk around and there it's dark. It's to be asking something? Can
I ask you something? Can I just itsppt you for? Didn't you like
intentionally knock yourself out and missed? What happened was the night before firefighting school,
and I slept in an upper bunk. I fell out of my bunk.
I guess I had a bad dream. I fell out of my bunk.
They found me the next morning with my head up against the bottom locker,
unconscious. Once again, do you think that falling out of the the
bunk would wake you up? Yeah? I didn't. Yeah, just put
your bath to sleep. Okay, that's good. I didn't have to go
to firefighting school. I figured they're gonna set me back a week. I
don't any matches around. Did you get did you get the tear gas school?
Did you go to? I mean I didn't go to any of that
room with a cheer gas alright, missed all of that. He'd like that
too. I'm watching TV the rest of the day and all these guys are
coming back coffin and which could said and buy it? What we should throw?
The race trail spoken up the recreation room, you know, Susan,
Please jeez, wish you guys a god audience. I could watch TV,
you guys think and I didn't have to watch and so far back to repeat
it unbello. Normally when you when ship like that happens, you get sent
back and you know you're you're completion of boot camp. Raven, Raven?
Do you think any less now of one one, now that you know what
he really did in the service? Um, not any less? No,
I didn't need the firefighting training, you know why because I didn't finally get
on that ship, the USS Vogia Destroyer Escort in Sport, Rhode Island.
Yes, and I would you know, appear on the ship, you know
maybe once a week at show up the ship doing something when they had that,
when they we had these ops and uh out at the in the bay.
My battle stations was et shot, so I didn't have to move.
I just put on my headphones. Else is running around. I love listen
to the MTV. But please, Susan, next battle station was et shot.
Next, Susan, please please all right. Next question one one,
could you tell us one thing we don't already know about you? Please?
Not that you already haven't one thing you don't already know. Um, I
can come back to that arnestly. That's that's a that's I don't know.
I can't even think of anything that would be that's okay, okay, worth
worthwhile revealing, or there would be uh lows hedgehogs un edited really okay?
Yeah, then okay, next question, then save someone? Okay, if
you could add anyone to Mount rush War the Mount Rush Moore, who would
it be? And why? Oh well, that's an easy one, Taylor
Swift. He would be Keith Richards My hero so many reasons, one being
he's a he's an excellent rock and roller, excellent guitarist, loves the blues,
loves the gigs, loves life and listen to the fullest. There you
go that he does of any kind of dangers he might have encountered along the
way, married to a beautiful wife, is a beautiful a bunch of kids,
and you know he's got it going on. And he lives in Connecticut.
And he lives in Connecticut. Is that? And he has the likeness
would be perfect up there, right? Yeah? Nice, please, Susan
dank questions and one's two left wenty all right, so one one, if
you got to choose one, would you rather join Metallica or the Backstreet Boys?
Excellent? Well question. Given those two choices, I'd have to choose
Metallica. Really yeah, because at least my hearing such as it is,
it wouldn't be a problem for him. I could listen to that stuff all
day. Really, you want to be in a band with those assholes?
Those guys? Man? Have it? Those guys just drama queens. I'm
sorry. I know they make a lot of money and a lot of people
like them. But who we next? Please? I'm not sure he'd say
the Backstreet Points, but you know, all right? So number ten if
I count it correct, So this is the last one. One one one?
Is it true that you moved your you and your wife all the way
to England just to get out of pay in your bar tab? At this
not telling you that's a filthy rue with us. That is an unfounded room
where I've paid my bar tab. If Matt hasn't usually paid it, I
should have been a few dollars to see. It's like a cat attack,
you know, or maybe some of the women we had metal on the way,
we would pick up the party. Okay, why don't we give Susan
a round of applause now and stop him from thinking the hole he was giving
him? SolV Thank you, Susan. You're gonna hang around with us,
right, Susan, You're gonna hang around. I would love to thank you.
Well done, Susan, I must say, right, Raven, very
well done, Raven. What you think of that? I'm a learned a
lot more about one one tonight. He likes to pass out often. I'm
gonna help him what he was doing? Okay, whatever he said, we
might have to cut it out, but we'll see. Why don't we do

Yeah, okay, Well, and that means what good morning in French or
something? Hello, welcome, welcome? Yeah, nice, nice last name.
That's cool. So you're in Massachusetts somewhere right, yes, okay,
and you're an inspire. You're a horror writer. You've been a horror writer
for ten years? Is that right? Yeah, a little over ten years?
Okay, all right, and then you're also interested in UFOs and everything
else we are, right, correct? Okay, So so um, let's
get to the horror first, if you don't mind, all right, not
at all? Okay? So what did you you know when did you be
so define horror for us? First? Um? Well, I mean horror
is you know, the things that scare us, the stuff that we tend
to not you know, we don't want to we don't want to watch it,
We don't want to read it, but at the same time we do
because it's gory, it's intense, it drives up us scare and fear levels,
then we love it. Is it because I'm not a real big,
big fan of horror movies. I like old scary movies, monster movies and
stuff like that, But like the the they call it, and Raven on
her show called like the flash of the flash scare or something like that.
There's a rod Fargas Yeah, something like that. Yeah, yeah, right,
when when they want you to jump and stuff like that jump scare,
I don't like that. And I also don't like when it's like really really
bloody. I saw the original Last House on the Left years ago. It
was just it was really bad, really bad, you know, really graphic.
That turned me off to all those movies. But what do you like
about them? So funny story, I actually I've been actually watching h I've
been binge watching Eli Roth's History of Horror and there's a bunch of different types
of tropes of horror that they've been showing, and I recently found out that
I do not like and I'm not a fan of body horror because a lot
of the films are just right there in your face. Yes, you think
you know what you're going to get, and then it's that and then song
yeah yeah, And they show they were talking about the thing with Kurt Russell
and I've never seen that. The remakeery beyond. But but do you think
that's good? See the original thing, which we've talked about a lot in
the you know, happened in the early fifties, is a really very very
suspenseful movie. But there's no gory in it. There's nothing in it.
I mean they cook them at the end and that really is you know,
the most blood in But it's a very suspenseful movie. I can remember watching
it as a kid, and it comes the monster down the hallway. They're
waiting to elexacued him. It's great. So so what's the difference between the
tension and then the goal. You know, the gore is just most satisfying
quickly will quickly satisfying to I think, like, like you mentioned the early
horror films, it's like they're not going to show you a lot. But
that's what makes it good is the build up. Yes, like for instance
and the Bride of Frankenstein, we only see the bride for like the last
five minutes of the phone. Yes, so like so then with like the
gore factor, it's kind of like maybe they realize as the years passed on,
now it's like, Okay, we want to scare people, but we
really want to scare people. Why they're going to get scared? Yes,
whereas just kind of like what what am I going to expect? It's you
know, said a number of times. It's like in Psycho, you know
the famous stabbing in the shower scene. You think you're watching a woman getting
stabbed, but you never see the woman being stabbed. You see the knife,
you see her screaming, you see the blood going down, you see
the shower crat and fall, everything but her being stabbed. And and it's
better than not better. It's your imagination. It's your imagination. It's it's
it's a little more um, I don't know what the word is, not
seeing her of being stabbed, you know, I mean it least a little
bit to the imagination, as bad as it could be, you know,
so the special effects in your head can be way better than Yes, right,
Lucas Industrial light and magic. Yea, yes, right, I agree.
So what's your favorite what's your favorite horror movie, The Shining Oh I
hate that movie. Man, that movie. I didn't. You didn't get
it either, right, Susan, No, no, no, no,
I don't get it either. Man, can I can? I list it?
I'm glad, all right? Listed number one, and then then you
can give the five reasons you like it. Okay, here's the five reasons
I don't like it. Number one. Jack Nicholson overacting, eating the scenery.
It's crazy, man, it's nuts. He's supposed to be crazy,
but he's not supposed to be crazy, all right, he's supposed to be.
They should have given that to someone who you didn't know, because every
second he's on the screen, it's Jack. It's Jack, and he wants
you to know it, okay, and he had lived it and all that
shit. Number two, all right, Stanley Cubra Raven might not have told
you this, but I want the film school ms. In film school,
I wrote my dissertation on Stanley Kubrick, Okay, and then he directs that
piece of crap. I mean, come on, that knives wide shut.
Very disappointing. Number three, they don't do the favorite everyone's favorite scene.
I didn't read the movie, but I didn't read the book, but I
know Switchy did. And everyone's favorite scene is like what happens at the end
and the in the hedges or something? Right, Switchy right, And they
left it out of the animals, right, the hedge animals. Yeah,
that's what everyone. And then I get two more. But you know it's
only a two hour shof so listen, so why what you know? But
also I gotta add one, it's the hedge animals were not there. That's
a bummer. But also I think it's Scatman. Crugger's plays. They tells
tells the kid early on. He's got the shining, He's got this in
any way, he's such an important character in the book and in the movie.
He gets all the way down there and then Kubrick kills him, kills
on me. He killed him in real life, he died, like,
you know, weeks later because cub and Kubik was nuts, you know,
and you know he only had like one line Scatman, and he did it
one hundred and ten times. It was it was unnecessary, but that's just
the way he worked. But justin to you, so tell me where I'm
wrong, Okay, So I mean, I I like it because it's kind
of, like we just had mentioned, it's a slow it's kind of a
slow buildspite Jack's eccentric nous. It's constantly but it's a slow build and you
don't really get that. The creepiness, you don't really get you don't see
anything until like halfway through. Yeah, it's quite the aesthetic of the hotel
itself, and I like the paranormal aspects. So yeah, seeing the two
little kids, so the twins in the hallway and the kid and the bike
is scary. There's no doubt about that that you know, that's creepy.
That's creepy, but go on. Um, probably one of my favorite scenes.
But at the same time, it's a scene that refies me as Room
two thirty seven, the woman in the bathtub. The woman in the bathtub.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, gets me every time, no matter how
many times they've seen the movie. It's just yea yeah, yeah, yeah,
I mean I could see it. But do you agree that Jack over
as um? Yeah, I mean, because that's how we that's how we
know Jack with Nicholson. Yeah, what's the pointing? Yeah, I know,
but he's always as Jack. I would say that I had heard somewhere
that Stephen King's other two choices were Robin Williams and John Voyd. Knowing that
doesn't kind of to make Jack Nicholson seem more Susan. Susan's raced in her
hand ahead Susan. Um, So I thought he was gonna say it when
he so I heard it was supposed to be Robert de Niro. I think
he would have been a little mossy siler. I think he would have underplayed
it a little more. You know, because the guy who's supposed to be
nuts there does be great if we tuck the whole show about this, because
I hate this movie. He's shown to be some nuts that he's sitting there.
He's supposed to be writing a novel. Okay, ha ha, the
novelist is nuts, right, but he's just typing one line? What was
it? Yeah? Jack is a poor boy's boy off off Yeah, and
he's written in a million times and you know, so that's the show us
that he's really nutty. And I agree it's a long build up to it,
okay, but it's like too long. Jose Barry Lyndon By, Um,
yeah, what's his name? Jever see that that's actually a good movie.
But it's like about three and a half hours long. It's like way,
way, way long, you know, justin JEVC guys white shut,
I have not Oh you can see it and come back on the show.
It's one of them. It is so disappointing. It's like the Beatles coming
up with a shitty single before they retire. It was awful, awful.
One one said he thinks it's about swinging, but you know, they you
because it was good. Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, uh, theatrics.
Clockwork Orange. He did Clockwork Orange is a very uh violent film for the
seventies, and it was very kind of like a look into the future.
It was banned in a lot of places. Yeah, yeah, it was
uh you know. And he did um Doctor Strangeloves obviously that justin Oh you
gotta in two thousand and one. That's how I did my dissertation. I
was two thousand and one that snows, you know, in your hand to
kind of figure out what it meant at the end, and then all that
I just typed it up. But Doctor Strangelove is his best movie. It's
his by fire, his best movie because it chose you without cheving in your
face, the absurdity of one. So anyway, all right, so the
shining, So what else throw out on another movie that we can jump on
your phone before before he does that? Okay, I was just I was
just talking to Mac before the show started. Second of Mac, who went
to film school? Okay, before the show, I was I'm a member
of ia TSC. Hey, I was a graduate student there. That's right,
he's a graduate. We still order you guys around now, I'm not
really good ahead. What the school was it? Emerson College. They not
run Hollywood. Yeah, they run Hollywood like this right Boston. You know,
I had i wash we got When we got into the office into the
studio tonight, I was talking to Mac about this is the fiftieth anniversary of
the Exorcist. Yeah. Now, if you're going to talk about horror or
influential horror, the Exorcist, for its day kind of started. It was
the one, you know with the modern effects. Yeah, yeah, and
a lot of that. I know, people that seriously, we are still
not right. Which you look at it today and you say, well,
you know, it's fairly tame compared to a lot of the stuff that's so
in your face. But the concept of the relatively at the time new special
effects, the concept of the child, yes, being the one who's being
put upon, not the adult. And uh, you know this is one
of Raven's favorite movies. Raven, the Exorcist is fifty years old. Did
you realize that I was that old, Chad? And the other thing about
it was, you know, the good against evil, you know, the
Catholics God and the devil. That just freaked out a lot of people in
Boston. They actually the Catholic Church banded in Boston. You can't get better
publicity than that, Boston, you know. Whenever, whenever I think back
to horror, I mean I love early horror. I love you know,
the original Dracula Frankenstein. I like that all, you know, even the
bad horror coming into the fifties, forties, fifties, you know, with
all the crazy radioactive stuff. I still, you know, as bad as
that can be, I still enjoy it. I watched it all the time.
Man. I remember walking in the seat the Exorcist as a kid and
walking into the we we ended up in the second row of the theater because
there were no other seats, and I had no idea what the movie was
about I just knew the church didn't like it, so I said, well,
I'm gonna go seat for the Exorcist. Yeah, did you get hit
by the green pea soup? Well, you know, we we were.
We were so trashed when we went in. Well that's a good idea.
I got God's on his truth the Root the Root three Cinema in Chelmsford.
Let's get high and there. I probably still if the seats are still original
to place there. I probably still hand marks on the second row seats from
me digging because every time they went up the stairs to see that kid,
I'm like, don't do it, don't walk up the stairs. And like
I said, the guy I went in you're with, Yes, I don't
think he slept with the lights off for probably another ten years, really yeah,
because it just messed him up so bad. So I saw it.
I went home and nailed my bed to the floor. Yeah. Yeah.
You know what happened to her? Remember who's the Who's the actress? Blair?
She went on to marry Rick James. Remember, Yeah, she hung
out with Mark Parento on WBC. N Oh really for a long time.
She turned into a good looking girl. She was backing up the Rhine Tree
of Mike. But that's another show. Let's listen, let's go to back
to just what do you think of the extract? Talk to me, she's
never seen it, your review ahead, go ahead. I think it's it's
like he said, it's one of those classic films. The first time you
say, you're just kind of like, wait, what, yeah, what
happened? What's what happened? And it's like, also, it's one of
those movies that, like, the more you watch it, the more like
you take me to like little different things that you didn't see last time you've
seen it. Yeah, yeah, we're talking about But that that that to
me, you know, when you when you watch a movie two three times
and you're and you're still picking up kind of a little nuances or whatever.
To me, that's like a really good movie, you know what I mean.
That's that's it's more than just the first you know kind of pass you
know, and that and I think that kind of makes it kind of like
a vintage movie or or something that people are going to watch. You know,
people are watching Psycho Now, but they're not watching the remake of Psycho
now, right, you go to the to the original. So Um,
we're talking to Justin Benvenue, horror writer, also a UFO enthusiasts and also
with us as Susan Kay, super fan. Susan. You enjoying yourself tonight?
I am. Thank you so much for having me. Wow, you
sound like Raven. Raven is with us tonight. Raven. Are you enjoying
yourself? Raven? Yes, friends, I'm having the best men of my
life. Wow. Okay, all right, I'd ask everyone else, but
I know they're having a good time. So so, um, what what
what's the latest horror movie? Justin that you you know that you've liked I
know that m Raven is big on you know, horror movies. Um,
contemporary horror movies. But you know what sticks out in your mind as like
a really good movie, Let's say, in the past five years horror movie.
Um, I don't know if it's been made in the last five years,
but I like the movie Crimson Peak. M it's I would I don't
think considered like a horror but maybe it's like a like a para normal suspense
thriller. If you well, okay, the good Crimson pea Crimson Peak.
Is it a movie or like a Netflix series? It's a movie. It's
it's kind of like a subtle ghost story. Why do you like it?
I like it because again it's got that nice slow bills, it's kind of
history effect in it, and it's just the Um it was directed by Gilmero
del Toro, So yeah, is that who's in it? The guy that
was Loki the Uptilson m Okay, he's the guy who directed Birdman, right,
I believe, So yeah, that's it with um, that's a really
interesting movie with Michael Keaton. He plays like an old Broadway style who may
or may not be able to fly and stuff. It's really really that's a
movie that I watched and I was thinking about it two or three weeks later.
You know. Um, just a good movie. So he's an interesting
director. That's good. You know. Is that a late is that movie?
When was that movie? When did he come out? Ah? I
want to say like twenty eighteen. Okay, del Toro did the Pacific rim
too. The Really yeah, I liked I kind of liked it. I
mean I thought it was about the Transformers and said, oh, yeah,
there the big robot thing. The big robots were what do I call him?
Transformers? You guys you guys. You yeah, and even Ron Pearlman
was in it. I mean just crackay picking up a paycheck. I mean,
you can't blame him, you know. So listen, why don't we
do this, Why don't we take a commercure right now and we'll continue the
discussion. You know, listening to mcmanie's Military as not show here on the

Also with us up there in sideways and yuh is a good good friend,
good witch. Raven is with us. Raven, how are you night?
All right? So I'm so happy to be here. Okay, you
got dulled up for us tonight. Oh yeah, I got my hues news.
Okay, I'm looking to you with too, I see you okay,
okay, yeah, okay, all right. Also joining us is justin Bend,
New How's that justin ben Venue? Um? Yeah okay, And there
you are in Massachusetts, fellow Massachusetts fellow masshole as they call us. Um,
you're a horror writer interest in UFOs. We're talking about horror movies.
We just kind of got into horror movies. Everyone likes horror movies. Okay,
what do you what do you think of monster movies like at like King
Kong, god Zillo, things like that. Do you like them? H
I'm absolutely a fan of uh monster movies. Um, Godzilla, and my
mom loves Godzilla. So any time that song, she'll throw that on King
Kong ye Kin kung Y. Yeah, Giant tar Angela or oh yeah those
are great, Yeah, Giant those those all so like they're so corny,
but that doesn't make them great. Yeah they're so bad, they're good.
So that was a I was a big fan of the kracking, the krack,
oh Hamelin what was originally? Oh yeah, the originally Harry Yeah,
right right right. We talked about Ray Harry House on what on the show
was a mean some of the gun. He was a guy. He was
a guy who um was extraordinarily patient, I guess because he did stop action
sequences for many movies Jason and the Agonauts. He has like an nine minute
you know, um duel with skeletons. It's crazy shinbad the Sailor, uh
them the sixth, the sixth Armed Octopus. Instead of having eight arms,
they only had money. They came from beneath the sea. Great movie The
Beast from twenty yeah, yeah, yeah, just and if you watch it,
and did he do on Earth versus flying sauces too? Yep yea and
twenty million Miles to Earth yeah yeah, which is another great movie. And
and um, the Monster and that is kind of cool. But but like
like Justin said, they're corny butt, they're great. That's what makes them
great because it's like there's no pretenses of it, you know what I mean.
It's just like, wow, there's a nine minute sword fight with skeletons,
and it's unbelievable when you think this guy, they would move all the
skeletons just a little bit. Take frame just we made dirty movies with Bobby
Dolls when we were in college doing the same thing. Okay, it takes
so along, it takes so long you would not believe it. And I
can't believe that that that he had the patience, because if you screw up
one thing, you got to go back and do the whole thing over him.
So was Ken frustrated? Ken was frustrated Ken, Ken. You know
Ken was not because he was anatomically he was not in anatomically correct. He
was frustrated around all the all the Bobby. It turns out well once again.
Another another thing Matc is the Bernard Herman did many of those music scores,
and his scoring for that kind of film and in science fiction films like
Day the Erster Still was always just flawless and really really added to the uh
the movie. It was the name of the instrument. Yeah, that was
for the Day the Ears still, Yes, unbelievable. One of my favorite
movies Vibra Times by the Beatles, I mean by the Beach Boys. But
see that's the that's the difference now is that these days and I know they
made the earth the day the earth should still twice reeves. But but if
you made a movie similar to that now, it wouldn't be Renad Herman music.
It would be you know, ac DC or something, you know what
I mean. It would be like you'd be in your face, it'd be
crazy. And what's a raven? What do you call it? In a
scary movie? When you know it's like a shock scale. Well you you
mentioned it a lot on your show where it's like a jump scare. That's
a jump scare. Okay, so this jump scars. You'd have like two
or three good jump scars in horror movies way back when. Now there's like
twenty of them. You know what I mean. It's it's it kind of
reduces your you know, the fact that you're a right and all scared or
whatever, the more that you see them all right, h justin how about
Alien Alien? We can bring aliens into the show like the movie. Yes,
um, I've seen it a few times. Again, it's I would
say, it's kind of like on that version like body Horror, but at
the same time it's a classic. So yes, yeah, I like it.
Yeah, Susan, you said, because it's because it's it happens in
space too and the class of hop. Yeah, yes, Sousan, is
that a favorite movie? Benest Alien? I like it. It was to
me like one of the first of its kind, and it was very I
think it was very well done. Yeah. I started the first day it
came out in the theater in an urban neighborhood in Boston, Okay, neighborhood
it's it's the Okay, it was the funniest freaking thing in the world.
I'm telling you. I mean, that's I'll just leave it there. But
it was hilarious but scary too, very very scary. And we got high
before we went in, you know, as you guys were talking, and
at one point when you know what comes out of that guy's stomach is like,
oh my god, this was a bad idea. But a good movie.
But a good movie, you know what I mean. But a good
movie, but but really strecturally good. And Sogny Weaver, whose father started
at NBC twenty years before, is really good. She's like the first female
actors who really carried one a big, big movie. You know, she's
really good. And then they made like fifteen sequels. But that first Alien
is it kind of has it all if that's what you're in for. But
just you know, okay, if I was watching actually, when I was
watching History of Horror, they brought up Alien and they had said that a
lot of people thought that whoever one of the male actors was, they thought
he was the main protagonist. So when he gets killed off an event,
John focuses, Yeah, I think, yeah, I realized that, oh,
she's going to be the person we're looking for the rest of the movie.
Wow, that's cool. Yeah, And so that movie was in that
was a while ago, so you know, I mean that was kind of
groundbreaking in a way. You know, nineteen seventy nine is seventy nine.
Oh my god. Right, I have three real, real fast three ahead
really kind of messed up movies that are kind of horror. But that messed
up one would be called Thanks Killing, Thanks Killing with the Turkey? What
was that about? Right, it's a it's a possessed turkey. It's it's
a bad movie, but it is funny it okay, And because the turkey
that they use, like the special effect is so bad, it's like it's
hysterical. Okay, go ahead years ago. The next one would be a
movie it's fairly recent called Benny Loves You. Oh yeah, And that was
the guy that played Never long Bottom in the Harry Potter series. He's the
he's the star of Benny Loves You. Benny is his stuffed animal from a
kid. So that one's kind of okay funny. Next, and the last
one is called The Greasy Strangler. We talked about this two weeks ago,
and this is so bad it is I can't even describe it. It is
raven like if you went on the Raven knows about it. I'm telling her
about a strangulation, if you if you, uh, it went like the
cons or one of these and they said it was like the weirdest movie they've
ever ever the Greasy strong The plot, what is it? In one sentence?
Greasy guy kills people? Wow, the loves he loves grease? How
about that pitch meaning you know, I'm telling you he just and it's there's
so much bad weirdness about it. You're like, you're done with it,
and you go, what did I just just lose an hour and a half
of my life? Speaking of that, losing an hour and a half of
their life, Let's go to Switchy because we haven't asked them today what he
had for breakfast? Switchy spotlights on you in there this morning? Yes,
I had the big Tater at Tutor's Biscuit World. Oh, Tutors, go
ahead. It consists of nice potatoes, um eggs, and you can have
bacon or sausage. I had bacon, ton of bacon, and uh,
they give you a bowl of gravy on the side. Now this also comes
with apples, but I'm not an apple guy. So if you you pass
on the apples, you get an extra egg. So I had three eggs
over easy, nice potatoes, old gravy on the side, white toast,
and a ton of bacon. Yeah. Healthy, man. I'm gonna say
about that's about twelve thousand calories, Yes, twelve thousand. Who cares?
Still cares? All right, let's guess. Let's guess. I'm gonna say
you're at tutors right, Yes, okay, I'm gonna say that was inflation.
I'm gonna say eleven bucks, ten dollars even? How about ten dollars
ten dollars? Wow? Is this the place you don't have to leave a
tip? Right? They don't have a tip cup, they don't have a
honey you. It's that kind of cafeteria style. Yep. You order your
stuff, you go sit down, they'll bring it out to you. You
don't put a five bucks underneath the on the plate when they're picking it up.
Do you do you bust your own tables there? I haven't. I
don't think that's stuff allowed. Who knows? Well, let me put this.
You know what I do. In the UK, they're not big on
tipping either, but I'd like some of our cafes, yes, personal service
and I write, I'm yeah. I try not to force a tip on
them because it just doesn't No one wants that. They write love notes on
napkins, so I bring a paper with me in my pocket, just the
love staff for the excellent serve, excellent food, whatever, blah blah blah,
you're beautiful and all that stuff. It's gonna be. It's gonna be
from Pennington, It's gonna be. How are we gonna bail someone out?
Was in England and where you might be deported? Right? That would be
the best of all situations. So anyway, I'll hired John Cleese from Its
called Waned to be my barrister. Good movie. So oh thank you?
Switch you? Which you half on lunch? Um? Just a sandwich?
Oh really? Okay? What was in between? What? It was?
A jelly sandwich, blowy sandwich, sich it's mayonnaise and yes, yes,
yes yes, let us in tomato put tomato on them. Not a lot
of mayonnaise, but just susan. What's your favorite horror movie? What's your
what's the one that stays with you play. I've been jotting them down dependents
because nowadays some of the horror movies actually involved the supernatural. You know.
So, um, I was really happy with The Ring, the first one.
Um. So there's a Netflix series that's called The House on Haunted Hill.
Oh yeah, yeah, good. The original movie was excellent. Ye.
My favorite is an old movie with Michael Keaton. It's called I think
it's called White Noise where he's listening Yeah, yes, I want to say
EMPs, but I got it backwards. Yeah yeah, right, he's listening
to those and oh my god, I love that movie. Yeah, that's
a really good movie. Yeah. Yeah, he's a good actor. He's
in just about every movie he's ever been in. Its kind of interesting in
a way. Yeah. Yeah. And recently I've watched The Black Phone,
which is oh that's Ravens. Yes, that's a good one too, and
you and I was shocked Ethan Hawk is the Bad Guys. That was really
well done. Uh yeah, that's one of Raven's favorite series, is The
Black Phone. Wow, huh, Raven, why don't we go to you?
Can you tell us your three and you can use Phil's voice if you
want. Oh, you know what. I actually heard that you Raven were
working on a Christopher Walking impression. You want to just tell us? Yeah?
Ready, hey, you know, um, I love the black Phone
too. It was fantastic. Raven is so talented. Wow. Okay,
Rave, So tell us your three top horror movies please m book um um,
also, um, some of my home videos. Okay, my home
videos of his home videos. Hmm, let me see m Okay, we'll
take your word for it. It's okay. One one. Let me just
go to one one. Uh, tell us your three favorite you know,
horror scary you know? Mmmm? Exorcist is number one? Really was?
Yeah, And I was dating my wife and day, let's go see that.
And we saw it at the Root Tree Cinemas facility. We stopped at
the candy store across the street. First missus Nelson Nelson. Okay, it's
a trip, a little shop in it. Go ahead, so you bring
your girlfriend and go see the Exorcist. Go ahead, and you cheap out
and buy the candy of Okay, Okay. And I don't know, I
don't really watch a lot of horror movies. I can't even think of,
you know, as far as scary movies, I like the I always go
to the others. Yeah, it's scary, but there's not in your face
scary stuff going on. You don't know what's going on. Until you know
what's going on, you find out what's going on. Yep, that's right.
That's a really good movie. That's a really interesting It's subtle. Yeah,
right, yeah, just subtle. Can't stop watching it. You can't
even if you're watching it on at home and you hit pause because you got
to take a pee. You really don't want to know, you really want
to just pee your pants and watch the Really it's pee your pants good pea
knickers. Can have another one. Get a cup. If you're a world
get a cup like everyone else. You know, another one, you get
a third one. Um shoot out at the Okay Corral. I don't know.
I can't even. It's a very scary movie. Okay, I don't
know. Um, I'm gonna name alions Aliens. Alien is good. Aliens
was always a good one because something coming out of his stomach. It's kind
of that's the concept of it is scary, right, And they, as
Justin said, they knocked off that John all special effects either were right.
What's that guy's name? John? He was like the guy John Hurt,
Yeah, the elphant man, and that he's get he gets killed off spoiler
alert in the first ten minutes in the movie. It's like, okay,
now what and Sigourney Weaver takes over. That's really kind of cool. Yeah,
um, I'm gonna say that, um my favorite. I mean,
the original Frankenstein is a scary movie in what it doesn't show. Okay,
so you know, he's kind of like, um, you know, a
full you know, how should I say? It's like a fool in paradise.
He doesn't know who he is, what he is whatever. And there's
a sequence where he escapes and he goes down to this kind of pond.
Then there's a there's a young girl, they're a little girl, and he
becomes friends with her. Now, this is thirties movie making. It's black
and white. It's not you know, Simite Verita and nothing. It's just
movie making, right, and you know, and then stuff happens, and
then the next thing, you know, I think you see her or a
dress or a hat or something floating in the in the pond, you know,
and you know he's killed her, but you never see it. It's
never even really mentioned, other than the fact that that's why the villagers go
after him. That's what I mean. It's kind of like something that happens
off camera in a in a way, sometimes it's even more affecting than if
you see the person, you know, kind of cut the pieces, you
know. I think I'm turned off by in your face blood and gore.
I got the only see in a Quentin Tarantino movie, don't don't don't,
Oh don't you Now I have to cut this off justin you know movies Quentin
Tarantino hack, right, terrible, terrible, Let him speak, let him
speak, go ahead, justin. Um, I think he's hit a mess.
I also think he's too full of himselves. See one one. I
mean, name one good movie. He's name one good movie he's directed.
Actually, I like Reservoir Dogs. That's like Susan Coodbye, nice, Senior
Susan Goodbye. But I didn't yeah director, right, okay, yes,
okay. But ever since then, that's how he that's the you know,
that's how he got to hang his hat, let's say. But ever since
then, it's been one shitty movie after another that he gets but he gets
but you know, but but he gets like Brad Pitt and these people to
Styren in them, and therefore he's going to get plaining of publicity. And
you know, we can make a movie if Brad pitts in, it was
gonna make money. Okay, So, but they're terrible movies. That's a
worse That movie blows and that movie about Hollywood. I can't believe that.
That is like like shitty once upon time in Hollywood. Did you see that
justin I did? I mean, I remember like looking forward to it,
and then I watched it and I was like, okay, what it was
so boring? They go boring, boring, boring, wan wan boring.
Okay. I didn't even make it through the whole movie. It was just
hard to watch. It's hard to watch. And you know that you see
him and Brad Pitt, Yeah, he's he's a good guy. He's the
only guy who in that repeat I talked about how he's the only guy who
stood up to Hobby Weinstein because Harvey Weinstein grabbed when the Paltrow's ass and he
was going out with him her at the time, and he said, I'll
if you do that again, I'll kill you. He's the only one out
in Hollywood. Who stood up to that guy. Now he's in prison for
about five hundred years, but you know, at the time, no one.
So that's why I kind of like him. But he's he's he's like
Tom Cruise. He's not he's a celebrity. He's a movie star. He's
not an actor, you know what I mean? And I think it they
get on him raservoid dogs. It was he that So anyway, So Quentin
Charter, no, but but he can he can. He can get Quentin
Charter qt Q tip can get big stars. And that's why his movies,
that's why you know about him. It's not that he's a good director.
It's not that the good plots of scripts he's in with these people. I
think he supplies them hash and they're in his movies and they make money.
They don't care. The people will give them money. They don't care if
it's good or not. If it makes money, let's do it again,
you know. So anyway, but my face, so I'm a big like
monster movie fan. The original Gladziller is kind of cool, The original King
Kong is kind of cool. The original thing is kind of colol. So
justin are we talking like old no fogies here. We're just not with the
could you look at I enjoy those? Yeah? Good. Do you model
some of your scripts or some of your writings based on that the genre of
filmmaking or or otherwise. I actually I take my writing from a lot of
different spots, um on movies that I've watched. Um, from the news,
like the real life news of stuff, what happens, and just like
a little bit of stuff and I just blended together and see if it matches.
Really. Do you write mostly novels or short stories or what's your medium?
So? I mainly write novels. Um. I have four books of
poetry. Actually, my first book ever was a book of horror poetry.
And then I go to Western Horror and then it's pretty much just alving horror
from there, the Western Horror. What's what's the title? Um, It's
called A Bloody, Bloody Mess in the Wild Wild West. Yeah, eight
love it. We're eighties in the eighties right now. So you have stuff
that's out there now that's uh available, stuff we can get an Amazon or
yeah, we find us available on Amazon. Okay, cool, let's check
it out. I love horror, Okay, so why don't we do this
after on back room discussion. Why don't we take a commercial break now and
we'll be right back after this. I'm listening to mcmaoney's militarys of show here

How's that? That's good? Okay? Joining us? He's also from
Massachusetts. Horror writer. You're a pull enthusiast, et cetera, et cetera.
So um, tell us about what I mean? What you're You're right?
What have you done? Books? Plays, screen place? So aside
from from books, I also write poetry, and I also write short stories.
I have I believe, over fifteen short stories published in various anthologies and
magazines. Excellent, okay for you, that's cool, okay? And how
long have you been doing this? I've been writing since two thousand and ten.
Okay, So now he looks like he's about eighteen. How old are
you thirty five? You're thirty five? No way? Wow? Okay,
all right, all right? And what get you into it? Did you
go to? Uh? School for writing or any of that. So I
was actually I took a creative writing class in high school. Yes, that
really interested that. It really interested me. And I was actually supposed to
take a Shakespeare superlative but I had been taken that robably a good thing,
probably a yeah that was boring, that would be boring. Yeah. And
also I really took the English. So I never went to college. So
after I graduated, I just really got into writing. Wow. Huh wow,
And uh did you support yourself doing this up? Okay, I'm sorry,
I'm sorry. I had to ask. Okay, all right, what
are you doing your daytime? You know, what are you doing here your
real life? Um, I work at a at a store at my local
mall in the Newington Mall where no okay sound south, okay, wow,
okay. So when you were growing up, what influences did you have?
So you're thirty five, so you you're you're a kid twenty years ago,
twenty five years ago, so I would say, I mean, from like
a horror standpoint, it was just like a lot of the movies we've discussed,
you know, I'd see those and like my parents didn't have any restrictions,
like oh, you can't watch that, you know, they'd be like,
as long as you understand that if you get scared or you see something
then you want to leave the room, it's fine. Yeah, okay,
okay, it's fine. And there was a couple of moments. I'm not
gonna lie. I probably rely left the room, you know, But for
the most part, as much as this they upset him. But I really
took to the shining the first couple of times I watched it. So that
always kind of what do I what do I What am I missing? Man?
What am I missing? I don't know. It's just one of those
films. I either like it or you don't like it. There's nothing wrong
with it if you don't like it. Yeah, but you know, but
here's the thing I think that I think that the fact is that you have
a Stephen King book. Okay, big book, big best selling book.
Right, you get like the biggest director or one of the biggest directors ever,
Stanley Kubrick. Right, yeah, you go some reason you hired Jack
Nicholson. So now you are you're you're there's three things going for this movie
that you know aren't really going for a whole lot of movies it's a big,
big production, and I think that they owe it. I think they
owe more to the people who are anticipating this and buy the tickets to put
a better movie in, to make a better movie, you know, not
a movie that you're scratching your head what they f's going on here and this
and that and you know, and they leave out the best pots and like
I said, Jack Nixon just like overacting what the chainsaw and his Johnny I
mean, come on, and one hundred years, no one know what the
he Johnny means? You know. Um, it just disturbed me. It
was just really disturbing that that Kubrick really, uh, you don't direct of
that mess. So maybe I just know too much about the sausage being made,
you know. But it was Kubrick in his right mind when he did
he have issues when he was making a lot of these movies, mental issues
or something. He was no, no, he was a guy. He
was American who lived in England and he was afraid to fly like me,
okay, And so what he did for Eyes Wide shut justin you've got to
go see that movie and come back and report to us how much that sucks.
But what he did was instead of getting on an airplane. All right,
this is how much pull this freaking guy had. He created Greenwich Village
at the Shepperdton Studios in London, you know, he took it was all
CGI. And when Tom Cruise basically the movies about Tom Cruise being lost in
Greenwich Village, he can't get home and he keeps running into these characters,
you know, junkies and prostitutes, and I don't know how to get home
because he lives up in the Upper West Side. All I want to do
the home movie. I want to say, take a cab, just you
know what I mean, you know, just hail cab, get him Colin
Uber and go Colin Uber. Okay, but that's what the movie's about,
Okay. And so he Cuber spent the money, you spent someone else's money
to create Greenwich Village as CGI in London because he was afraid to get in
an airplane. So he was kind of eccentric. But he directed great movies.
I mean, Doctor Strangelove is like in the top five of the best
movies ever made. Two thousand and one is considered, you know, one
of the masterpieces. Okay, Barry Lindon, even though It's a long,
kind of drawn up movie. When you watch it, every film, every
shot in it is like perfectly filmed, like a portrait. Um, you
know, just um Spodocus. He directed Spotocus, one of the best movies
ever made, you know. Yeah, he came in halfway and took over
that movie and directed it. Pats the Glory, which is like the most
anti war film. You'll love see it, And they're just great, great
movies. But at some point he kind of lost it. He lost it
and maybe he lost money. Maybe boy Shining Uh, and and um Full
Metal Jacket about his movie in Vietnam. Terrible movie. It's about a war
in a city Vietnam was plot in the jungle. I mean, what are
you doing with the city anyway? And then eyes wide shot and he died
and then it came out, so who knows, but he was an eccentric
guy. Okay, that killed five minutes. Also Clockwork Orange right ahead of
its time, ahead of its time, you know. Violent. Uh,
that was kind of a hip movie to see. Everybody went to see that.
Malcolm Malcom down right. Yeah, it was the one he did after
two. Everyone expected he really disappointed. Yeah yeah, yeah, everyone expecting,
like Hey, what's this guy gonna do? And then it's like this
kind of really weird, kind of slightly future in England. And wasn't that
rated X? I mean rated? It took a real bad rating violence somebody.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yep, yeah, it's it's
it's I don't know what he was thinking of, but yeah he could have
gone through something else, but just the way it is, so justin so
anyway, So when did you start writing? What age were you when you
started writing? In Um, i'd say, like I really like when I
took writing seriously, when I post started writting would be probably around when I
was like nineteen or twenty, because I would just well, I mean when
I was in high school if I was born in one of my classes,
like science mostly, I just started writing poetries and stories really but like really
like big time stories. I would probably say when I was in nineteen or
twenty. Okay, do you want to recite I want of your poems tonight
on the air. We'll put some music behind it. Um no, I'm
good. He kind of put me on the spot there. Ahead, Now
come on, you must have one, right, go ahead, you must
know one. Just a couple of lines. Kay, did I actually have
my phone right here? One up my phone? Some of my poems from
when one of my folks. That's okay, see this's just the slow build
up we've been talking about. It's called silence all right, all right,
okay, called butcher block block. Let's go. Slice a finger gets it,
pierce against the skin, cut straight through the bone. Sever one digit
down, slash another finger slit. A vein has been punctured. Gash it
gushes blood, glaceraate the middle's gone, carve a slushing sound, mince,
the pinkies, loss, chop, a lonely thumb, butcher meat lies in
the block like it. Yes, let's get in place. So it's like
a homework to me. Okay, sounds deep. Are you live in Alberboro
that's about one hundred miles from us? Or so? Okay? Good?
So wow? Huh So why this pretty heavy duty? I thought that would
get the bigger laugh than I did. Listen, Why why why the horror
though? Why is? Uh? Why is your lyrics for Rachel gets the
machine song or something? Yeah? But what's indigestion? What? What does
what appeals to you? Um? I'll actually break it down in two ways.
Like when I first decided that I wanted to write a book, I
knew it was gonna be a poetry book. Well, I actually didn't know
whether I wanted I didn't know what type of like poetry I wanted to write.
And I thought to myself, I actually have a lot of dark poems
that either like not that I wasn't emo in any way, but I had
like, you know, like the emotional type of phones. But also I
had like Halloween scary horror type poems. Yes, and I had a lot
of those. So I was like, you know what, I'm going to
write a book of horror poetry. And I had already had appreciation for horror
to begin with. So I just kind of combined the two and it really
just took off from there. Yeah yeah, yeah, huh, Well that's
a way. That's a niche. That's a niche. And you said your
parents watched scary movies all the time. I wouldn't say all the time,
but they watch them. Yeah, I did watch them. And then like
I said, yeah, they said, you know, just be aware this
is a scary movie. And yes, you don't something up such a you
can leave. Um if you remember a couple of weeks ago, Raven's father,
Raven's father, lonely Larry, told the story about how his wife at
the time, Raven's sister was, I mean, Larry's wife was pregnant with
Raven's sister two weeks overdue. They didn't know what to do, so he
brought her to see the movie Erase Ahead, Erase Ahead, but horrible movies.
Ever, and her water broke and she went to the hospital. Perfect
yes, wow, yeah, so that's instead of inducing her, he brought
it to see a Race Ahead and after and on the bed screaming, you
know, as the baby is being blund she's screaming it. Larry, I
can't believe you brought me to that movie. You know, I almost gave
birth watching that movie. Did you real me too? Yeah? Wow,
anyway, I've never seen it. Yeah yeah, Oh, it's it's yeah,
it's you don't want to see twisted it's twisted before. Yeah. Yeah.
Anyway, So have you seen the movie The terror what's it called The
Terrorizer? Supposed to be the one that makes people like throw up in the
movie theater? Oh well, all put out there The Terroriser? Yeah yeah,
yeah on Netflix or something. No, it's actually it was actually in
a movie. Yeah, wow, to give you plastic bags? Which project
did that because of the shaking of the camera. Yeah yeah, yeah,
well the right, there's another movie that right, you make you nauseous,
right if they're not putting in this subliminal stuff, you know? So,
um, justin what do you watch on TV these days? What anything?
Um? What I said earlier, I've been binge watching Eli Russ History of
Horror. Yep, yep, Um we should just he's a guy, Eli,
we're out as someone who made you know, he's made his bones and
making these kind of low budget horror movies. Would you say, yeah,
yeah, okay? And what else? What else do you do? You
ever watch anything lighthearted? Like you know, Jevity is something from the Prairie
House in the Prairies, right. Unfortunately, if I can't watched any Little
House in the Prairies because my mom would throw it on and I'd be like,
you know, I don't leave the real stuff to do on the computer,
So you can watch and I'll just listen, that's fine whatever. You
know, Michael Landon was like bomb during that entire series. He was either
drunk or he was on not Culke or all these things that he said it
himself. I'm not so. I never saw her a little house from the
prairie. So anyway, so where are we? Uncle al Tom Wise?
Um? We are at there we go. We got you know, it's
really bad when I asked this question and rescuing me of all people, we're
about sixteen minutes moments. Okay, good, Well, I'll tell you what.
Why don't we do this? Why don't we just bring those show to
a halt and we'll put in some best off or something. Well, okay,
we can, okay, okay, So I want to thank everyone for
participating tonight. First of all, justin ben Venu ben Venu, right,
Okay, I flung French. I at French all through grade school, all
through high school. All I knows how to say autobus and pain means bread,
right, okay, So well, thanks for joining us. We really
appreciate. Will you want if Ravens sends you like the names of two or
three movies, will you watch them and them come back on just to give
us your opinion of them? Sure? Absolutely, Yeah, you're going to
probably put eyeslight shut on there, So just go see it and maybe maybe
I'm mistaken, but I'll tell you what a mess I mean. You know
tom Cruise is in it, well, no, no, what do you
mean, waste his time? He's he's so unbelievable as a doctor. He's
a doctor in it. Okay, and he's married to you know, Nicole
Kidman, which is bizarre and the first so that's why I watched it.
And she gets naked with them, but they're smoking pot. She goes crazy.
It was like, it's it's like the reason why you never smoke pot
with your wife. Watch that scene. Okay, wow, okay, but
he's so unbelievable. No, there is and he has he says forty two
times in the movie, I'm a doctor because you know, when no one
believes that little Tommy Cruise is a doctor with the tooth in the middle of
his head. So you know, it got screwed up from there. You
know, it's just about watching watch and they're supposed to be like satanic messages
in it, and you know all this stuff. I think they just like
threw that out there just so people go watch it because it's a mess.
If it's from some out of the director for again about it, it wouldn't
have been released, it would have been to fail you. But anyway,
go watch it will Justin tell us what you think about it? All right,
let's all watch it again. Thank you Justin for joining us. We're
really a cruciate Okay, I'm gonna say good night to Raven. I'm gonna
say good night to Raven. Now, Raven, thank you for joining us.

twentieth. Is that your your righty? Does that the hand? You're right?
Well, of course I can't wash my hand. Just you'd be surprised
the things you don't appreciate that you do. I can guess a couple of
them. Yeah, wow, I appreciate it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I know, I get it. Let's give Susan round the applause please,
which she knows we will sweeten up. Thank you Susan for joining I

Great to see everyone. That's it. Okay, let's as I said,
good by to everyone. Thank you, okay. Holmeshrop Troops Homes Our Troops
is an organization that gives UM that collects donations from you to build houses for
our wounded veterans from Afghan Afghanistan and also the Iraq law. They may have
lost limbs or whatever, and they make these homes that are more adaptable to
them, not a lot of stairs, wide doorways, low counter space.
We went to an event this weekend Lois and I and it was really fantastic
to see people coming together to help out veterans. So just go to Homeshrop
Troops. What they do is they build the home adapted right to the veteran
UM and then they give them the keys. They I saw them, they
give them the keys, They RiPP the mortgage. It's their home forever and
they don't have to worry about that thing every month paying them and they go
out and live as normal I hate to use that term, as normal life
as they could. And a lot of people who are who moved into these
homes have homes have gone out and you know, just kind of lived as
normal a life as they can. Homeshrup troops. They've built about three hundred
and fifty of these things, the beautiful homes. The problem is they get
a thousand people on the waiting list. So please go to Google. Look
up Homestrut troops. See what they're about. Ninety percent of your around dollar
goes to veterans. The VA should be doing it, they're not. So
people like Homestrut Troops doing it. So please donate. And I think that's
it. Oh wait a minute, there's nothing too. So we had good
Reads, the publisher of War of Dragons by Macloney, now available everywhere,
did a good Reads contest. You know about those one? One? I'm
not really do you know about them, Susan, I don't either, But
anyway, with for good Reads. Right, yeah, so they say,
you know, if you I don't know, into some kind of contests,
you will get a free signed book by me. I guess. So usually
they have like about six hundred people. Six hundred people go far, aren't
you know? I guess that you just put their name in or whatever.
This time there was twenty one hundred people, so I'm hoping that means something.
Yeah, So anyway, we're gonna be sending those books out next week.
Also, I just want to say, we were thinking of a contest
name one of Al's b's but you know which one? Would it be?
The Queen the Queen Bee? But anyway, so we have like about five
extra copies of War of Dragons, so we're gonna come up with some kind
of contest to him away to our listeners. So other than that, I
think we're all set one one anything to add wanting JJ No, you've said
it all, okay, all right, so we're gonna go get a book
Love and Let Die Love It? Yeah yeah, oh that's yeah. Yeah,
wait till you read the end though. Love and Let Guy, the
movie about the book writing, The Beatles and James Bond, how they intersected
to the sixties and seventies. Yeah, fascinating actually, um so, while
we'll go get a cheeseburg with fries and angerings for you, then Wanni and
Chaka Montini and until you hear us the next time. This is Mac for
the entire game, saying be safe, be happy, and bye bye
