Added "Talkin' Frankenstein's Daughter (with Bridget and Mary Jo)" (MP3, 35 MB).
Howdy, Traxian podcast people!
Your old pal Erik here. I'm finally making good on my promise for a Talkin' RiffTrax from Bridget and Mary Jo, where we discuss their latest riff, Frankenstein's Daughter! We talked in podcast form about that, plus digressions into important topics like Ellen DeGeneres' replacement on "Ellen," Abe Vigoda jokes, and Mary Jo's impressive spelling abilities.
Enjoy!
Erik

Added "Talkin' RiffTrax: Lycan Colony":
1080p (285 MB)
720p (148 MB)
We see a lot of bad movies here at RiffTrax; we sift through them like fine flour that’s gone off and gotten weevils and spores and now smells like guano.
There are different levels of bad, to be sure, but there are also different facets of bad. Different qualities of badness, if you will. Behold Lycan Colony, (arguably) the Worst Movie We’ve Ever Riffed.
We’ve riffed a lot of badness over the years. Figuratively a crap-ton. We’re experts at this; we know of what we speak. And as Traxians, you know that we know. So here we go:
Lycan Colony has managed to earn gold in just about every category, except perhaps one: it’s not boring. Confusing, leaden, wooden, ridiculous, bad sound, bat effects, bad costumes, the script - don’t get me started - but it’s not really boring, unlike Rollergator. Hence the debate here on which is the most awful, the pinnacle of wretchedness, the apex of the nadir.
See, we take our bad very seriously.
Enjoy the debate and the fun we have with (arguably) the Worst Movie We’ve Ever Riffed: Lycan Colony.

720p (77 MB)
In this ongoing Traxian series, Bill talks to RiffTrax marketing director Peter Hunter about one of his favorite RiffTrax movies, the totally inexplicable midwest madhouse that is A CHRISTMAS CIRCUS — starring everyone's favorite clown, Whizzo. Now you've got that to worry about!

Added "Hangin' Out With RiffTrax: August 2020 Zoom" ("720p", 277 MB).
(While Vimeo lists the video download as "720p", their 720p encode is actually 616p. The original source video was 1600 x 720, but I'm not dedicating 2.5 GB for that vs. 277 MB for a few extra pixels of Zoom call. I doubt anyone will notice.)

Just as a note, that's still 720p. Most videos have an aspect ratio different than 16:9, so the height will be less than the screen's

I'd rather have the 1600 x 720, even if it's ultra-wide, but I'm not going to take the time to download two and a half gigs and then have to do a re-encode. Though it could use some cropping, so I'm half-tempted anyway.
Added "Bill chats with RiffTrax web developer Nik Anderson about The Visitor!":
MP3 (19 MB)
720p (78 MB)
Hi folks! Today is our web developer Nik Anderson's birthday, and I thought I'd give him a small gift: publishing my interview with him, here on Patreon! It's fragile, so please don't break it.
This Traxian Extra series continues as I chat with Nik about a memorable RiffTrax movie: THE VISITOR, starring John Huston as a meandering senior citizen sent by the forces of space-goodness to defeat space-evil. Or something like that.
Enjoy!

MP3 (23 MB)
720p (92 MB)
This ongoing Traxian extra series continues with Bill talking to RiffTrax video editing master Casey June about an underrated RiffTrax gem, the goofy 1987 RoboCop / Terminator / Judge Dredd mashup R.O.T.O.R. What does that acronym stand for? It's not exactly clear!
