We have bird news, we have firework-related injuries, we have breast feeding, we have bar farts. We have it all, folks. Also: Sorry about the levels. We're figuring this out.

Jul 22, 2016•1 hr 4 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 1-- This is the pilot episode for a new show that host, James Kislingbury, and frequent guest, Alex Smith, are working on. The show is called "World's a Mess" and it's about the big stories the main stream media won't tell you about-- possibly because they involve animals getting it on. We won't ever know until you listen.
Jul 12, 2016•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 82-- In which Cruz and James rap poetic about Season 6 of Game of Thrones. They talk murder. They talk inheritance law. They talk their greatest hopes and dreams. They talk all the hot, hot Westeros talk that you can handle. Then they go on about Tickled and a few other movies and TV shows. I can't really remember. ALSO: There's a baby in this episode! So, yeah, it's a bit rougher around the edges. But that's life, folks. Also, I got a backlog that you wouldn't believe, folks. I gotta ge...
Jul 05, 2016•1 hr 11 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 81-- We hit up another cult movie. This time Cruz and James tackle the Rutger Hauer vehicle "The Hitcher." It's a movie that's full of as much joie de vivre as it is full of nonsense. In short, it's perfect for us. Then our hosts move onto talking about Band of Brothers, Veep, and, of course, anime. Stay tuned for our next couple of episodes. We probably have some Game of Thrones hot takes to serve up for you soon. Man. Did you see that Bastard Bowl coming? Man. MAN! Follow us on Twitter...

James and Cruz then rap about cocaine in the 1970's, Star Wars, and the Jungle Book. James also goes on about anime for a bit. We actually edited this episode, so it almost turns out kind of good!

Jun 13, 2016•57 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 79-- This episode is about the all consuming heat that is the erotic works of Clive Barker. Oh man. So much leather. And blood. And brains. And stupid people having the wrong emotions. Cruz and James watch Hellraiser. Or Hellblazer. Or something. It's a garbage movie. It's amazing. Then we talk Game of Thrones and Vinyl. Aliens Versus Predator also sneaks in, because of course it does. It always does. And remember, if you or your partner are contemplating opening up a portal to Hell, rem...
May 30, 2016•1 hr 26 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 78-- We're back! Again! Here we are! Today Cruz and James dive back into the podcasting game with Jean-Pierre Melville's neo-noir masterpiece Le Samourai. It's on the Criterion Collection, so you know it's good.

May 25, 2016•1 hr 13 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 77-- We're back and full of beans. On this episode James and Cruz tackle the Ernest Lubisch classic "To Be or Not to Be." Despite the best efforts of Hulu crapping out ever ten minutes, we got there. As a people, we got there. We also probably end up talking about the Daredevil TV show. That's still relevant, right?

May 01, 2016•1 hr 12 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE #17-- A QUALITY QLASSIC! Another episode from the archives. This time we brought out Alexis Simpson because, apparently, we haven't tortured her enough. We tackle the cocaine fueled whirlwind that is the Robert Altman directed Popeye. Man. I don't even know what else to say about this movie. Other wasted talent includes Shelly Winters and Robin Williams. Christ, what a mess. You can watch Alexis and Cruz on "They Live Together" on YouTube. Cover art by Julius Tanag. Follow us on Twitter ...
Apr 30, 2016•1 hr 10 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 16-- Once again Cruz and James stall for time by bringing out old episodes. The rest of April is going to be like this folks. Sorry. The good news is that Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a dope as hell film and if you haven't seen it already, treat yourself tonight and check it out. DO IT. Also, another treat: Say the director's name. Tobe Hooper. Tobe Hooper. You try. Fun, right? Support this program at Patron.com/Quality. Every little bit helps. We think. Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz...
Apr 30, 2016•52 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 15-- Ugh. What a long dumb journey to get these old episode back onto the feed. Kids, let this be a lesson to you all: Archive your shit properly. Episode numbers. Lists. Excel sheets. Don't be like me. Anyways, we have our special guest @JMB on to discuss the movie that ended the apartheid regime of South Africa. We think. Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz and @kislingtwits.

Apr 29, 2016•1 hr 12 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 14-- We dig out this classic from the backlog. In this episode, Cruz and James hash over the commentary from Venture Bros. season 3. Both it and The Eiger Sanction are very good for very different reasons. One last thing to keep in mind is that Clint Eastwood directed this film. Meaning, everything that happens in this film, he not only approved of, but had an active hand in. It is perhaps. . . telling. Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz and @kislingtwits. You can follow James on IG @ki...
Apr 29, 2016•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 13-- We dive back into the archives to revive this lost (ish) episode. In this show we are joined by local biking enthusiast Miles Merlino. James then tries to justify his affection for this movie. Cruz probably disagrees. I'm excited to get this episode up because it means that we're done with the old show's archives from the dark days of Podomatic. Ugh. I hate Podomatic.

With a new episode! Cruz and James are back to discuss Jean Renoir's classic film Rules of the Game. Don't know what that is? What are you? A peasant? He also maybe discuss some other movies. I don't know. We also probably talk about a whole lot of other movies. Honestly, I don't even remember. Just listen, will you? Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz and @kislingtwits. Y...
Mar 18, 2016•1 hr 25 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 7XX-- A QUALITY QLASSIC! We journey back in time for a doozey of an episode. Another show from the "White Guys, Square Glasses" archive. Back then we didn't even have a subject for the show. We survived three years that way. You wonder why we ever changed. . . Also, if you're wondering why it sounds like this, it's because we were literally recording off of an iPhone. Podcasting advice: Don't do that. Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz and @kislingtwits. You can follow James on IG @kisl...
Feb 12, 2016•43 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 7XX-- A QUALITY QLASSIC While James stalls for time, he's going to shove an old, pre-AQI episode in your face! That's right, it's the little seen or loved Wes Craven film "The Serpent and the Rainbow!" It's kind of good, actually! And, like, in a real way. Not in a way where the movie has a Nazi voodoo priest in it. But it's got that, as well. Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz and @kislingtwits. You can follow James on IG @kislingwhatsit.

Feb 12, 2016•58 min•Transcript available on Metacast EPISODE 75-- We are pleased to introduce a new guest star into the AQI pantheon: CAITLIN LEMAIRE, she of "White Wine, True Crime." We talk or, at least, ramble around, her favorite film Silence of the Lambs. It's real good, y'all. The movie. Not necessarily this episode. It's, yeah, it's our longest episode ever. You can follow Caitlin and all of her exploits by, well, googling her podcast "White Wine, True Crime." You can follow her on twitter @bossymatilda. As for us, you can follow James on t...
Jan 21, 2016•2 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 74-- Technically, we're running out of order, but, really, who cares? Cruz makes a triumphant return to the program as we discuss what might very well be Steven Spielberg's greatest film: Raiders of the Lost Ark. Oh, also, this concludes our "month" of SPIELFESTEN, our glorious series on the director. We also then talk The Force Awakens for another forty minutes. Other things as well. Probably.

This time we're doing HACKERS, a great movie that Cruz doesn't understand. I don't now. It's a New Year. I'm drunk. I don't care. Here ya go. Merry. . . Russian Boxing Day. I guess.
Jan 01, 2016•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Episode LXXVII Cruz has vanished. From the ashes of the old podcast James, DRUNK and FULL OF MUCUS has arisen. Sh*t is popping off for real. Our boy James raps Star Wars alone. For a whole god*amn hour. No spoilers. Then tons of them. But you've probably already seen it. So, like, whatever I guess. It's all kind of a mess But you already knew that I bet this joke doesn't work in iTunes. This is probably for the best. Then James talks about Carol And, I guess about Patriot Games But mostly about ...

In his stead, Eric Bryan of Anger As Art joins James to talk about Punch Drunk Love, the last truly watchable film of PT Anderson's career. Don't believe me? Screw you, I don't need your approval.

Nov 30, 2015•1 hr 16 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode 68-- We begin our horrific MONTH OF SPIELBERG with the out and out comedic failure that is 1941. Staring Toshiro Mifune, John Belushi, John Candy, Robert Stack, and, like, a million others, 1941 is the story of aw who cares. It's not good. And according to our math, each joke in the film cost roughly 13 million dollars. It's a dog, people.Follow us on Twitter @goldenagecruz and @kislingtwits.
