Lee is joined by friend and fellow podcaster Vaughn Kuhlmeier to talk about two early examples of what would come to be known as the Hixploitation genre, those being Russ Meyer's "Mudhoney" (1965), and Jerry Gross' "Girl on a Chain Gang (1966). Much of the conversation revolves around how both films contain the elements that the subgenre would build off of later on in the 1970s especially, and just how very different these two films are from one another in tone and style. Was Meyer too reserved? Was Gross not exploitive enough? The hosts also talk about what they've watched recently and respond to a listener comment.
