Hey there, it's Robin from PRX, and I'm so excited to tell you about Radiotopia's newest show, Amityvilleville.
Alex Goldman, host of Hyperfixed and former host of Reply All, teams up with his close friend, journalist and supernatural phenomena enthusiast Carolyn Thompson, to review all 91 movies in the Amityville franchise.
Inspired by the true story of the DeFeo murders in 1974,
the Amityville horror became the second highest grossing movie when it came out in 1979, inspiring books, documentaries, and of course, a sprawling and bizarre film franchise.
Along the way, some enterprising filmmakers realized you can't copyright the name Amityville, which has led to a total of 91 movies in the franchise, including titles like Amityville Elevator, Amityville Outhouse, Amityville Job Interview, even Amityville in Space,
And yes, these are all real movies.
The show will feature recaps of all 91 movies in the order they were released, and there will also be special one-off episodes featuring interviews with the people involved in making of the films, or even in the investigation of the alleged haunting at 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York.
The show weaves cinema, pop culture, true crime, the ghost hunter industrial complex, and a couple of horror fans chopping it up.
And I want to tell you about a brand new show in the Radiotopia family.
an exciting partnership with our friends at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and fellow indie network, TalkHouse.
It's called Music Makes Us, and it's hosted by cultural icon, the legendary Kathleen Hanna, the frontwoman of Bikini Kill and La Tigra.
She sits down with revolutionary musicians like Chaka Khan, Olivia Rodrigo, and Hayley Williams of Paramore to speak about the things artists really want to talk about.
Perfect lyrics, unforgettable shows, treasured artifacts, and even snacks.
From the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Radiotopia, and Talk House, music makes us.
