198.4 KFLX Fiction Radio

One of our personal faves as we continue the summer with classic episodes from the vault. We're back with new episodes starting August 18th!
All of the Loaf with none of the Meat!
We're taking on the 1984 dystopian fantasy "Streets of Fire," featuring a string of bangers from 80s songwriting powerhouses, a killer score that wasn't even written for this film, and so much more. Also featuring music from this film's unofficial sequel and a performance by Mr. Loaf himself. Plus Dustin figures out where we've heard that sound effect before.

Are you Snow-Belles material?
You know we had to do a holiday show! What better way to bring the season into full swing than with the ABC Family original movie "The Mistle-Tones"? Sit down by the fire with a cup of eggnog, get sarinaded by both Tia Mowry and Tori Spelling, while playing along with a Chirstmas song quiz Shawn springs on Dustin.

You don't want no part of this!
This week is all about the biopic to end all biopics, 2007's Walk Hard. Shawn and Dustin step into the world of Dewey Cox and explore the many songwriters who made this film not just another parody, but an absolute tour de force of hilarious musical genius. We also go over some lesser known John C. Reilly vocal appearances and, of course, talk about our favorite tunes from the film. Plus a quiz involving Bob Dylan and his many portrayers.

Get your togas out of storage, the Deltas are throwing a party!
Our most vintage film yet! This one covers Otis Day and the Knights from "Animal House," the film purported to have started the "gross-out" genre. There's nothing gross, however, about these sweet, sweet tunes. We've talked about all kinds of real artists who have appeared as fictional ones in the past, but this is the first time we'll follow a fictional band into reality!

We are KFLX and we're here to talk about fictional music and stuff!Folks, it's our 50th episode! To celebrate, we're talking "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," the 2010 film adaptation of the hugely successful graphic novel. This one is full of music by indie darlings such as Broken Social Scene, Metric, Beck, and more. Plus, a caller named Scott drops some surprising backstory on us and it's...well, big if true.Guest starring Leroy Patterson.

How about a brand new movie for a change?
Ryan Coogler's "Sinners" is a breath of fresh cinematic air that takes you on a rollercoaster ride of genres, and boy howdy is it chock FULL of fictional music and musicians! We're going down to the Delta to listen to "the real" and also breaking down the absolute creepiest use of Irish folk music we've ever come across. This one is a ride! Do yourself a favor and check out this film before you listen because we're not holding back on spoilers.

Let's go to the punk rock show!
This week is all about "We Are Lady Parts," a co-production of Peacock and the UK's Channel 4 about an all-woman, all-Muslim punk rock group and the struggles of getting noticed as a group and what to do with fame once you have it. We're covering a bunch of original songs from "Lady Parts" as well as diving into other music by all of the super actresses who portray the members of this on-screen band.

Who'd win in a KFLX slap bet?
"How I Met Your Mother" is what this episode is all aboot! We're taking on the fictional artist Robin Sparkles – the teenage mall-pop idol persona of HIMYM's Robin Scherbatsky. From humble beginnings in the local mall to a successful tour all the way from Alberta to Ontario, Robin's alter-ego is revealed bit by bit over the course of the show and we're taking a listen to the songs from each of the four Robin Sparkles episodes.
