Fellow Unbelievers:

In this Host Segment from Jungle Goddess, Joel and the Bots take on both Racism and Imperialism. From Europe’s Molasses, Rum, and Slaves to the U.S.A’s “Manifest Destiny,” to Red China’s “Belt and Road Initiative,” to Islam’s Global Jihad, not enough has changed for the better about our species. Nevertheless, Joel doesn’t…[Read more]

Correction: Rodgers and Hammerstein. Rodgers sure got around on collabs.

Fellow Unbelievers:

Here, the ethnic hatred flaw is an internal error, what Rodgers and Hart called the “You Have to Be Carefully Taught” error in sapient beings:

Fellow Unbelievers:

Here, technologically-imposed ethnic stereotypes were a form of torture from Lawgiver Pearl Forester on Mike and the Bots:

Fellow Unbelievers:

Try as Crow might, he couldn’t get the others enthused about the tropes in Blaxploitation films:

Fellow Unbelievers:

From 7:38 to 8:41, Joel and the Bots condemn the injustice and immorality of an old racist trope of horror movies, as well as the real-life horror of “Strange Fruit”:

Fellow Unbelievers:

The Hosts and the Bots of MST3K were never afraid to challenge legitimately terrible racist tropes in cinema. Here, they take on the title character in Jungle Goddess or what we today know as Karens on the Right and AWFLs (Affluent White Feminist Liberals) on the Left.

Megyn Kelly would no doubt find a note of familiarity…[Read more]

`Reg and Jake:

It’s just so damned amazing that Woke Right types profess such concern for the decline of the West, yet know so little of Western culture and history!

And the Woke Right types express shock, shock when people of immediate African ancestry, Lupita Nyong’o and Zendaya, embrace and participate in Western culture!

Why, they’re not…[Read more]

Reg:

I meant Paula White, Trump’s Tongue-Speaking Babble Whisperer, not Carla White. Whether I listen to a Carla White is based on first, her existence and second, the evidence for what she says.

Reg:

The Woke Right Podcast-istanis were “singing into a can” whose echos never reached me until just recently on the subject of The Odyssey. I learned all the above facts on the Classic dramatic arts in the Seventh Grade and read The Odyssey in the Ninth Grade. Woke Right MAGA probably slept through all those lessons.

And I always muffle my…[Read more]

That will teach ya not to cover your ears when the promoter sirens sing…..”Oh brother where art thou” (by the excellent Coen brothers, is the best version of the Odysseus….:-) and some great songs too…..

Jake:

I’ll try to catch when it streams. Like most other Americans, going to a physical theater with sticky floors and paying for overpriced popcorn and yellow suntan oil topping and Junior Mints is a bit out of reach with everything else going up, another point against Woke Right ragging on the movie. They have some warped priorities in a…[Read more]

I thought Odyssey was dopearama. So much press with this movie. Weird.

Fellow Unbelievers:

Of all the people who need to watch MST3K, it has to be Megyn Kelly, Matt Walsh, Elon Musk, and all the Woke Right who are bleeding from wherever over the Christopher Nolan vésion of The Odyssey:

First of all, The Odyssey, however epic and fantastic, is a work of…[Read more]

Just look at that pic. Chimps with their toys. Dogs trained to be what they become. Give me that old time religion. It is good enough for me.

Religion is substantively substanceless and its subsistence saturates substantial pockets of stupidity that leak into and support woo and ideology. What else does one need to know except how religion still has a hold over so many? So how the fuck are idiots gonna figure out Magma and Palestinianism are lying to us?

Religion explained the unknown while the unknown was vast. Neuroscience explains why those explanations felt true. As our understanding of the mind grows, revelation is asked to compete not with disbelief, but with explanation.

Hypatia of Alexandria might have said……”If the soul’s visions admit of natural explanation, then let us investigate…[Read more]

I meant Carlo Lombardi would be a prequel to “Psychic” John Edward, not John Walsh. John Walsh of America’s Most Wanted would pursue a Carlo Lombardi.

Fellow Unbelievers:

The things you can do with a Heath Kit, like confirm that The Dead Talk Back…or at least confirm that the living can talk a big game about the dead talking back:

Fellow Unbelievers:

Another movie with the theme of “Past-Life Regression” but used as a mass-audience party stunt and carnival grift is The She Creature. It’s surprising that Carlo Lombardi didn’t have a prequel to The John Walsh Show for the rabbit ear and Cathode Ray Tube set:
