Speakeasily Vs The 80s is a rip-roaring trip down the drain of '80s trash cinema with special guests from the live performance, podcast, and film worlds.
Both Speakeasily Vs. The '80s and The Speakeasily Hour Minute Podcast are audio shows of ill-repute that grew out of the Speakeasily comedy collective. Morphing from a live Bay Area burlesque show into a web-based video burlesque talk show into a sketch comedy thrupple, the hydra-headed Speakeasily now provides comedy podcasts for your listening pleasure.
Speakeasily's comedy sketches and podcasts stretch the boundaries between surreal and shtick, intellectual and gross-out, counterculture and trash culture.

Frankenhooker (1990)
The Speakeasily gang is back to resurrect another camp classic with schlockmeister director Frank Henenlotter's 1990 master-piece, FRANKENHOOKER! Is this a gritty update to the Frankenstein mythos or a po-mo feminist manifesto? Is any of us more than the sum total of our parts? WANNA DATE?!

Mannequin (1987)
Speakeasily vs. the ‘80s returns to your $hitterverse after having left you alone for way too long and for no good reason! We're back, baby, and we're here to talk about Michael Gottlieb's Mannequin (1987) with our guest, performance artist Annalyn Bond. There comes a time in every boy's life when he falls in love with his own fiberglass creation, and we guess that's what this movie is about. But really, we're just here for Hollywood because he's one BAD GIRL.

It’s Not The Quantity...
...It’s the QUALITY that matters.
There are thousands of comedy podcasts where a few loud people just yak - yak - yak about weird topics/ they grind out a couple hundred episodes and have 3k+ 5-star reviews and they just absolutely BLOW. Five minutes in and you feel exhausted and need an Advil...
But “SpeakEasily Hour Minute Podcast” is way different - it’s very surreal in the way it uses sound effects, background sounds, and its fictional characters.
I took to it in a way that no other FM Radio “Morning Zoo Gang” comedy podcast could ever hope to do.
Funny and thought provoking
Absolutely hilarious and amazing voice acting. Really makes you think about what would happen if once dead writers and fictional characters came back to life today. I'll be up all night pondering this now. I can't wait for the second episode! What is going to happen to that pig??!
