Week 27: Lifeboat (1944)

When not discussing Hitchcock's under appreciated gem, 1944's Lifeboat, Jim and Eric are singing television theme songs, barking in fake German, and talking to giraffes. Don't mind the hissy sound quality, folks, it clears up about six minutes into the show -- and you don't want to miss the pseudo German language featured in this episode. Next week begins a new batch of shows that will be more lively, informative, and entertaining than any shows to day. And these will have decent sound!

Discussion Show 3: Broadway and Listener Questions

It's a wild and woolly show this week as Eric and Jim first discuss The 39 Steps on Broadway, a comedic stage adaptation of Hitchcock's classic film, and then take some of the more absurd listener questions we've received. Boxers or briefs?

Week 25: Shadow of a Doubt (1943)

In an astounding turn of events, Eric and Jim actually manage to stay on topic for an entire episode ... and with good reason, since they're discussing one of Alfred Hitchcock's very best works in Shadow of a Doubt.

Week 24: Saboteur (1942)

A few days late because Eric is absent-minded, but the new episode is here ... Hitchcock's 1942 chase picture, Saboteur, falls short of being a true classic, but that doesn't mean it isn't full of spills, chills and thrills. Check out this week's podcast, in which Eric and Jim discuss this fine film, along with whatever else they stumble onto.
