Sean McTiernan came thru to talk Rammellzee in Jim Jarmusch' STRANGER THAN PARADISE. Possibly our most interconnected episode yet, going all the way back to Sean's first appearance on the pod, into his amazing episode about Rammellzee's art, and our own ep about WILD STYLE. All linked below, along with a great resource for all of Sean's other work.

Writer and rap scholar Abe Beam (Passion of The Weiss) came through to discuss ABOVE THE RIM, an alleged classic and Tupac Shakur's final film to be released in his lifetime. We discuss basketball, whether the film is any good, Tupac's riveting performance. https://twitter.com/TheFakeAbeBeame
April Fools! Anthony picked an absolute banger. Jane Fonda's 1980 labor screed + any rap that has ever been affiliated with it. Plus, we got a new mic. Sorry we're late.
@VyceVictus from the Action For Everyone Podcast came through to discuss NOBODY (2021) starring Bob Odenkirk, RZA and Christopher Lloyd. We get to go deeper on the art of an action film, and of course get to explore our usual paranoia, wrapping the whole thing up with some international RZA bangers.
A sub-60 minute banger, written, directed, produced by and starring Andre Nickatina. Ryan gets educated. Ant lets him know. Also an opportunity to play a ton of Nickatina's music.
The legend Sean McTiernan (@nochorus on twitter - Live at The Death Factory is the podcast) came through to discuss Den of Thieves starring 50 Cent and Gerard Butler in ABSOLUTE UNIT mode. Yeah its HEAT for dum dums, but isn't that actually a good thing? Speaking of Heat, Ant brought it with his track selections. Stick around. https://twitter.com/NoChorus
Rah Digga returns! We discuss the Jersey MC's performance in Thirteen Ghosts, a film destined to break the brains of horror "aficionados" everywhere.
Shout out to this listener-submitted request! A completely bonkers crime drama from 2008 starring Busta Rhymes, Sticky Fingaz, Armand Assante, and Tom Berenger's Liquor Face.
This found footage style film doesn't star any major rappers, but it definitely stands squarely in "rap movie" territory, following stick up man Curtis Snow as he steals and fights to get by in an Atlanta neighborhood known as "The Bluff"
April Fools style, we watched CHESS: The Musical...for reasons.
