Doom Patrols and Donkey Farts

Matt and Ted have a great time talking about the first two episodes of the Doom Patrol television series! If you haven't seen it, take our advice: watch the motherfucking Doom Patrol. This episode was plagued by technical difficulties (recording over Wi-Fi in the mountains can be an adventure), but I've done what I could to save the file. Unfortunately, the video component was too corrupted to use at all. Most of the audio is broadly acceptable, but I did have to ADR a couple of spots. I promise you'll know which ones!

Nobody Wants You Here, Phantom!

The Fagan brothers don't have loads of love for the 1996 super hero fantasy The Phantom, yet Matt finds himself surprisingly charmed by a character that just doesn't have a place in the contemporary storytelling landscape. But they made The Phantom anyway! The result is a movie that seems uncertain of its own intentions, and never really delivers on any of the things it's trying to be.

Alchemy, Flat Earthers, and the World's Greatest Cat Burglar

Matt and Ted have a free-wheeling discussion about Hudson Hawk, a Fagan family favorite! We recorded this episode on January 1, 2024 and we're releasing it at the end of November; will our various predictions come true? This is the movie that began our obsessions with Sandra Bernhard, and Richard E Grant, and led us to such films as How to Get Ahead in Advertising. Hudson Hawk was a famous flop, and it is not without its cringey moments, but it's fucking funny!

Spaceballs the Episode of This Podcast

Full video available on the Depot Devoid Podcast channel on YouTube! Comedy and tragedy intertwine this week when Matt and Ted discuss SPACEBALLS! On the one hand, it's a hilarious spoof that both of the Fagan brothers remember with exuberant fondness. On the other hand, the episode was recorded a while ago, on the same day that Matt got some really bad news about his dog. Revisit one of the best comedies of the 1980s, but do it with deflection, distraction, and tears. This is the Depot Devoid Podcast, and laughing in the face of grief is kind of our thing!

Scream 6 is Too Horny.

Matt and Ted Fagan catch up to the Scream franchise in what is still, at the time of this writing, the last entry in the series. But probably not for long. This episode was recorded well over a year before publication, and the future of Scream 7 has changed considerably! What hasn't changed is Scream 6. which is like a teenager in a slasher movie: horny and uncertain. But we still love our friends from Woodsboro, even when they do us a little dirty.

Boner Pills vs. The Final Girl

Scream 5 (the five is silent) corrects many of the mistakes of Scream 4, makes a few all-new mistakes, and generally entertains the heck out of us! Matt Fagan describes his perfect theatrical experience with the 2022 Scream, and even his less-forgiving brother Ted winds up having a good time. Until we have our dream sequel where all the dead Ghostfaces battle Pinhead in Hell, at least there's Scream 5!

We All Scream 4 Ice Cream

Full video of this episode is available on the Depot Devoid Podcast channel on YouTube! Scream 4 is a blast of fresh air, blowing out the stank of Courteney Cox's Dark Palace, and filling the Depot Devoid with the delicious smell of Deputy Judy's lemon squares. The Fagan brothers also discuss dreams they've had that were inspired by slasher movies, and learn the true meaning of Scream!

Courteney Cox's Dark Palace

Full video for this episode is available on the Depot Devoid Podcast channel on YouTube! Scream 3 might roll around at the bottom of the inverted bell curve that represents the arc of the franchise, but the Depot Devoid Podcast can't just skip over it. Our dear chums Gail and Dewey are, as always, a joyous company to keep, but for a movie from a genre master (in a franchise that acknowledges the mechanics of good horror storytelling) it falls short of expectations. Matt Fagan loves the Scream franchise, even though sometimes it tries pretty hard to push him away. Ted Fagan is begrudgingly willing to continue the journey. Nobody is getting out of Courteney Cox's Dark Palace unharmed.

Scream 2: Electric Boogaloo

Full video for this episode is available on the Depot Devoid Podcast channel on YouTube! Happy Halloween, friends, and we hope you packed your bags because... Woodsboro Goes To College! And Depot Devoid Podcast tags along for the ride. This rushed production is so full of holes, it's a wonder the actors didn't all fall out, yet for some reason it remains a delight to watch. Dewey limps. Gail streaks. Randy is full of more holes than the plot itself! Come on out to our party, and don't forget: harmonica style is okay!

One Scream Two Scream Red Scream Blue Scream

Kicking off the Halloween season, those meandering Fagans take their first slasher movie into the Depot Devoid! They're starting with Scream One, famously regarded as the best of the prequels to Scream 3, and one of Matt's favorite Courteney Cox vehicles. Does anybody have anything new to say about Scream? Probably not! But Woodsboro is a kickass place to hang out in. If you're not getting stabbed. Also available as a full video on the Depot Devoid YouTube Channel.
