Bobcat Goldthwait • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #173
LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the fabulous director, actor and standup BOBCAT GOLDTHWAIT!Bobcat is a voice that listeners of a certain generation will most definitely be familiar with, but to know him merely for being in Police Academy is to do his career a woeful disservice as Bobcat is a multi talented force of nature! He’s written and directed a number of unique movies with a very individual feel and energy, as well as many comedians’ specials, and continues to throw down on the comedy circuit too - often seen these days alongside good friend and brilliant comic Dana Gould. He and Brett catch up and go into it all, including his homestead out in Illinois and his newfound lumberjack skills, deceptively cynical movies, being a ‘human claim’, Bigfoot, Robin Williams, directing comedians and also Jimmy Kimmel, being a parallel world Beetlejuice and the Michael Keaton effect, his early life persona and being Zed from Police Academy, the love of ducks, double dates, and so much more. Fascinating and awesome.

It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with national treasure - comedian, host and author JIMMY CARR!As lovely as you would expect, this chat with Jimmy, Brett and the infinite cinema cosmos is a revelatory and fully enjoyable trip, involving the seeds of his book writing, solo cinema going, generational fears, grief and catharthis and the art of comedy. Of course, this merely hints at the sirface of the iceberg (not a Titanic reference) as there is far more besides, but you can expect a wild and hilarious ride.

Meredith Salenger • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #167
LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with actor, producer and podcaster MEREDITH SALENGER!A marvelous chance to catch up and check in on all things Meredith, who you may well know from her starring role in classic The Journey Of Natty Gann - though even a casting glance at her IMDB profile will reveal how much she’s been involved with since then (it’s a LOT). A lovely, warm ray of sunshine of an episode (with a cool breeze coming in), involving so much goodness including her meeting of husband and friend of the podcast Patton Oswalt (and their ace podcast), living as a couple and the intricacies therein, death and the soul, creepy sleepovers, starring in a grubby role, a LIVE epiphany and - maybe the tipping point of the whole episode - her part in the original ANNIE! Hear Brett’s world implode in real time, it’s quite something.
