Episode description

“I have mastered your god! Accept me! Now!”

This week your favorite Distinguished Professors confront the Italian 1984 Sandahl Bergman vehicle and H. Rider Haggard re-envisioning She! Discussion topics include the distinct lack of Haggard’s version of She in this version, the racism and colonialism of the original, similarity to Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death, the glory days of Skinemax and USA Up All Night, the necessity for more boobs, a quick intervention for Vanderpool, the fusion of barbarian Renaissance Faire and Western garb, Hercules/ Ercole/ Machiste connection, video game similarities, the rockin’ Rick Wakeman soundtrack, Nixon in ’88, the editing ate the story, the runners-up for quote of the movie, our new band Leper with a Chainsaw, on-air production notes, sexual assault and a call back to Supergirl, the workings of werewolf orgies, discount Robin Williams, Godan’s Communism, a long Superman Returns digression, the definition of a fop, speculations about the true target audience, the dubious responsibility of being a goddess, and a pronoun connection to Her.
