Queen Venerator

We're back with part two of Brad's pre-high school mixtape of songs, and Christ Almighty are they terrible. No one forced him to admit that he listened to this stuff, yet here we are. Topics Include: Brief discussions of Bumblebeez 81, the Lo-Fidelity All-Stars, and Citizen King The MTV show  Fear Fuel: a bad band A very long, several part discussion of Jimmie's Chicken Shack An Australian Siri gi...

We're officially back from our extended leave, and it's Brad's turn to run down his mixtape of songs he listened to pre-high school. Whereas Sean's "mixtape" was predicibly pretty cool all things considered, Brad's mixtape is... not. Enjoy? Topics Discussed: The inevitably lengthy discussion of the Sick New World tour Disassembling computer towers to burn an American Hi-Fi song The profundity of "...

On this bonus episode, Sean and Brad discuss a wide array of topics, including: What Pokemon type would Jesus be? Speedrunning Rotating food gifs The cardinal sin of putting lettuce on sandwiches Hypnospace Outlaw Cheddar Bay Biscuits The many weird cities of Northwest Ohio The SnoCore Tour and their many insane concert lineups A gaggle of B-tier nu-metal bands The 2003 album Tommorow Come Today ...

We're back with another wild one here at Queen Venerator. Sean's pick for this week is a "mixtape" of songs that got him into music before high school. This is a VERY 90's heavy episode as Sean and Brad discuss Blind Melon, Bush, Beck, Stone Temple Pilots, and a bunch of movie soundtrack songs. Did you know that Deee-Lite did a cover of "You Sexy Thing" for the Dumb and Dumber soundtrack? You do n...

We have finally arrived at the end of our journey through our Top 100 horror movies. Thank God. On this episode, Sean and Brad discuss a bunch of zombie movies, a bunch of anthology movies, a few massively controversial picks, werewolves, a priest from hell, cyberpunk nightmares, haunted VHS tapes, religion gone wild, non-Dune sandworms, shunting, rooms filled with barbed wire, exploding heads, sl...

We're entering the home stretch for this month's scary programming as we cover numbers 50 to 26 on our Top 100 Favorite Horror Movies list. In this batch, Sean and Brad discuss functionally useless cookware, watermelon salesmen, alien-derived hallucinogenics, British mods fighting zombies, men in rubber suits, melty Goldblums, Vincent Price being a weirdo, sexy interdimensional horrors, the new fl...

We roll along with our October festivities as we discuss part two of our Top 100 Horror Movies. This time around, Sean and Brad discuss arthouse aliens, possessed hands, devil goats, sexy saxophonists, anime thrillers, scary mannequins, body hammers, horrifying head ripping, big sharks, found footage innovators, supernatural voodoo women, a decaying Griffin Dunne, grocery store slashers, haute cou...

October is upon us. Again. It is the time to celebrate all manner of scary stuff: skeletons, goblins, draculas, and of course, RANDOM FUCKING WINDOWS UPDATES THAT ERASE YOUR FUN BONUS CHAT EPISODES.  Yes, this was not the plan for this month. Sean and Brad were not even going to do anything to celebrate this year, but technological forces beyond their control (ask no further questions) have steere...

We're back with Brad's pick on this episode of Queen Venerator. This time, we discuss the ramshackle 1987 post-punk album Guitars of the Oceanic Undergrowth by the band Honolulu Mountain Daffodils aka the most obscure album he could find apparently. Seriously, this album was actually trying to stay off the world's collective radar at the time, and it seems to have succeeded here in 2022. The brain...

On this bonus episode, Sean and Brad discuss mustard, the largest (and smallest) covered bridges in America, insane concert lineups, the buffaloes of Domino's Pizza, and much more.

Sean and Brad are back, and this time around they discuss Sean's pick of the Law and Order: SVU episode "Conscience" from Season 6 starring Kyle MacLachlan. Pretty normal episode of SVU here. Nothing completely insane that would compel us to discuss this random episode. Also, we discuss Longmont Potion Castle for an extended period of time because why not? Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram...

Normal people would not talk about Law and Order for four-and-a-half hours. However, Sean and Brad did, so editing the show is running long. As such, we present this bonus discussion of PC Gamer's 1994 list of the Top 40 PC Games of All Time to tide you over.  Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/queenvenerator/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/queenvenerator Facebook:...

It's a New Day (yes it is) at Queen Venerator, as former guest Sean becomes the new co-chair going forward. It takes all of two minutes before Brad and Sean devolve into discussing Ice-T, defunct fast food items, the movie Freeway, Idris Elba punching a lion, Less Than Jake, Sega's Top Skater, and kites. Eventually, they get around to selecting the topic for next week's show, which is the  Law and...

We're finally back at it one recovered hard drive and several months later with our Top 200 Cover Songs of All-Time. On this episode we're discussing numbers 80 through 51, and this is where business and weirdness begin to pick up. We have jangle pop covers of piano jazz, piano jazz covers of Michael Jackson, a bunch of classic soul covers, Ice T getting mad at sawdust eating vegans, several cover...

We've finally come to the end of the road as Boyz II Men would say. Our month plus long journey to rank every 80's action movie montage song featured on the Blood Bros series of mixtapes has reached it's conclusion, and we're going out in style with our Top Ten. Failed talk shows! Satan's Alley! More dancing on BMX bikes! Robert Tepper! This episode has it all. Also, we run down all of the songs t...

On this episode, we continue our quest to rank every 80's action movie montage song featured on the Blood Bros mixtape series, and there's a lot's going on here. In fact, so much is going on that we split the episode out into a fourth part to accomodate everything. But this episode still has discussions about some of the biggest titans of the montage song genre, some of the weirdest inclusions on...

No show this week due to Brad moving an entire house's worth of stuff, but we'll be back next week with the conclusion of the Ranking of Blood Bros tracks.

On this episode, we continue our personal vision quest to rank every 80's action movie montage song featured on the Blood Bros mixtape series, and business has picked up. Lots of cool deep cuts! Lots of favorites ranked too low! Don Johnson! This is a good one. Songs Featured:  Alan Silvestri - Delta Force Theme Animotion - Staring Down the Demons (Thrashin') Bill Conti - The Storm (Karate Kid II)...

On this episode, we begin our three part quest to rank every 80's action montage hype song featured on the Blood Bros. series of mixtapes, and we're starting out hot on this one. There's a little bit of everything on this one including: electronic music titans, celebrities going wild, awful Steve Perry garbage, and a whole lot of Rocky IV. Good Stuff. --- Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram:...

On this episode, we continue to explore new album releases from 2022.

On this epsiode, we finally start catching up on various album releases from 2022. Spoilers: They're all really good, and there's a little bit for everyone on this one. Gothic operatics, wild experimentation, mellow, fuzzed out experimentation, avant-pop, indie rock... we've got it all, and by all I mean five specific albums, but whatever. Albums Discussed: Zola Jesus - Arkhon Weston Olecki - Old...

On this episode of the Queen Venerator podcast, we discuss getting walled in Hades, Jeff Gerstmann and his new ventures, the Jon Bois & Alex Rubenstein mini-doc "Section 1", cynicism, and much more.

We like pro wrestling here at Queen Venerator (for some reason) and want to start talking about it on this show (for some reason). So, on this episode of the Queen Venerator podcast, we discuss Cleveland.com's 100 Greatest Wrestlers of All-Time List from 2017, written by Troy L. Smith. We discuss who should be higher, lower, and off the list completely to give you an idea of where we stand on some...

On this episode of the podcast, we scrap our original plans at the 11th hour and decide to go in a completely different direction. This time, we try to create our own version of a Late Night Tales compilation, the long-running, night-themed UK compilation series curated by famous musicians. Results vary. But hey, we had a good time giving it the old college try. Website: www.queenvenerator.com Ins...

On this episode of Queen Venerator, we welcome you to the inaugural edition of the edition of Title Fight, the show where we compare two different pieces of media that happen to share a name and determine which one is better. This time around, we pit Primal Rage, the 1988 Italian rage monkey horror movie, against Primal Rage, the 1994 dinosaur fighting game by Atari Games.  Are either of them good...
