Punk Vacation: An Unofficial Vinegar Syndrome Podcast

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.Episode 40 is one of the most in-depth and interesting conversations Punk Vacation has had on the language of physical media. That is not meant metaphorically, literally the subtitling and the importance of language and copywriting. Dino Proserpio does most of the subtitling work for VS and a lot of the copywriting. He's a polyglot and film historian, and was a fantastic interview.Eli and Chris both spend 3 hours geeking out with Dino, and he will be coming back as a guest when he is ready for it. He casually covers topics like how Rad is responsible for the creation of sublabels at VS, the amount of work that goes into restoration and how there is a science behind subtitling. I learned a lot from hearing him speak and I hope you all do too.We will be back mid April to discuss the March titles in depth. If you want to watch along we will cover Office Killer, Massacre, Forgotten Gialli Vol 9, Badge 373, Cuddly Toys, Unmasked Part 25, Intensive Care, and Reviver 2.Thank you to everyone who listens and please let us know how we can make the show better. Always listening!Eli can be found on most socials @eliolsberg, you can also catch his standup show the second Tuesday of every month at the Pleasure Chest in West Hollywood.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 39 Eli and I cover the Feburary announcements and determine if this Feb was better than last years. But before all of that, we are joined by one of the most exciting young filmmakers in the US, Kansas Bowling.I dare you to find anyone under 30 who loves film and loves talking about film as much as Kansas. She's obsessed, and her obsession naturally translates into a rich vocabulary of directors and movements and subgenres and microgenres. She is here to discuss her latest feature, Cuddly Toys, that recently got a VSP release. But, neither Eli or I knew we would be speaking with a true film historian and scholar. Kansas was awesome. In addition to discussing her love of Altman, Orson Welles, and many other canonical directors, we also get into her love of St. Jesus Franco. She casually drops F For Fake as a major influence on Cuddly Toys, and gives us a glimpse into what's coming up for her next. Everyone support Cuddly Toys, either with the disc, in one of the upcoming theatrical screenings, or the eventual streaming option.We will be back around the first of April to discuss the months announcements and a surprise Macabre announcement that has promotions on top of promotions.Thank you to everyone who listens and please let us know how we can make the show better.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.Before kicking off episode 38, we've unearthed a lost discussion from the Punk Vacation archives, restored for your listening pleasure: Chris and Eli are joined by the lead archivist from Vinegar Syndrome, Oscar Becher, to talk about the second release from his new sublabel, Reviver! Like the releases themselves, we won't spoil anything here, you'll have to listen to find out what we talk about!Then, we return to our regularly schedule programming and we're delighted to be joined by friend and supporter of the show, Brian Saur, co-host of the Pure Cinema Podcast and Just the Discs! Brian has been covering VS and partner releases since the label first hit the scene, so it was a lot of fun to talk about early titles that caught his attention and he helps us go through all the March announcements on the mainline, sublabels, and some OCN partner releases. If you aren't already listening to the Pure Cinema Podcast and Just the Discs, we highly recommend both for some great discussions on film with a real emphasis on discovery!  Pure Cinema Podcast: https://purecinemapodcast.libsyn.comPure Cinema Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/purecinemapodJust the Discs: https://justthediscs.libsyn.comFollow Brian on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rupertpupkinspeaks/Follow Oscar's new sublabel Reviver on IG: https://www.instagram.com/reviverarchival/Someone's Favorite Productions https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/Eli can be found on most socials @eliolsberg, you can also catch his standup show the second Tuesday of every month at the Pleasure Chest in West Hollywood.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 36 we are fortunate to be able to sit down with one of the most exciting new voices in exploitation and horror, Alex Phillips. This dude loves genre movies, and we dig into All Jacked Up and Full of Worms and his new feature, Anything That Moves. I think everyone will enjoy hearing from this creative and darkly funny filmmaker. He gave us almost an hour, which was more than we were expecting. But it's a great look into independent hustle and an attitude of just-get-it-done. Eli and Chris stick around after Alex leaves and review the January titles, and largely agree Jan was a great month to kick off 2026.Up next will be the March announcements and then a separate episode that is the second half of our Valentine's Melusine special. Thank you to everyone who listens, and find us on the VS Discord if you want to chat.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 33 we are going to try something slightly different. Eli and Chris recorded an extended "15 Minutes With You" segment live on Celeste's YT channel back in December and we are going to use that as Part 1 of a 2-Part Valentine's Day Melusine special. Both Valentine's Day episodes will focus on the Melusine side of the house, and next week we will be back to also discuss what drops on the V-Day announcements. We are still tring to fit in a discussion on the January titles, but not sure how to fit it in at the moment. Either way, see you next week during the month of love!Thank you to everyone who listens, and find us on the VS Discord if you want to chat.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 35 we finally sit down with the esteemed stepfather of the boutique physical media community, the most connected man on the internet, and future playgirl model, Ryan Verrill. In addition to the incredible community Ryan has built with the Disc-Connected, the podcast network and special features consortium he has established and grown with Someone's Favorite Productions, Ryan has also recently launched the longtime stealth project, Antenna Releasing.Ryan is the type of guy that you want to be successful. He loves movies and loves promoting them and has been a champion of preservation for as long as he has had a platform. His depth and breadth of knowledge is on full display as we go through the February announcements of mainline, sublabels, OCN, and Melusine. But before we dive in to that we get a deep dive into Antenna Releasing, a filmmaker-forward film distribution and physical media publishing house. It's a venture that has been a long time in the making, and Ryan gives us insights into the first theatrical release, Stolen Kindgom, and the timeline he has for the rest of the lines underneath the Antenna umbrella. It was a great conversation and I wish Ryan tremendous success at every step.We are going to try something a little different in February with Punk Vacation. We have a 2-parter coming out for the Black Friday and then January Melusine titles, and Part 2 will coinicide with the V-day announcements to be able to discuss those. We will also try to fit in a discussion on the January titles, but not sure how to fit it in at the moment. Either way we'll see you a lot in the month of love!Thank you to everyone who listens, and find us on the VS Discord if you want to chat.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 34 we welcome one of the giants of horror on IG, Jay Blake from A Fistful of Horrors. Jay is many things to the community of horror lovers online, but he is also complete on the VS mainline dating all the way back their initial Indiegogo campaign.I don't know whether to call him the Daiseke Beppu of horror and exploitation, or perhaps the Mr Rogers, whatever it is Jay is extremely knowledgeable but also just really damn nice. He loves what he does and I think it shows as he talks about his life and work.We run through every mainline and sublabel release from November, and recommend our favorite OCN from the month as well.We will be back in early February to discuss the new announcements with the king of announcements, Ryan Verrill from Disc-Connected and now Antenna releasing.Thank you to everyone who listens, and find us on the VS Discord if you want to chat.

We did it y'all. 30 episodes in our second Christmas together. Thank you to everyone who has listened to any of the episodes, and please seek us out if there is anything you want to hear more about.We wouldn't look this good without the amazing art of Adam Danbury (https://www.adamdanbury.com/film). We wouldn't sound this good without the regular segments from Celeste de la Cabra discussing the hardcore titles and all of the guest who add depth and weight to our discussions.For the final episode of 2025 we are bringing back Prof, or David. The man watches over 1,000 movies a year and has had an active blog since 2010. We discuss the year overall with one of VS's most tenured supporters.Stick around after the discussion with David as we may have a holiday themed bonus that's worth a few extra listening calories.I'll include some links below, but honestly just a huge thank you to anyone who has spent any time with Punk Vacation. 2026 will continue to have some exciting names from the VS team, some historians, critics, and hopefully some more filmmakers.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 30, we celebrate Eli's first booking on the show with one of the coolest people in the business. Bret Berg, Director of Theatrical Sales for AGFA.Bret is the guy behind the guy for theatrical distribution of almost every boutique label on your shelf, and it's a conversation I really loved. He talks about AGFA's mission, Museum of Home Video, some of the new OCN titles, and a fantastic background into The Movie Orgy.Bret was a perfect guest, and Celeste and Eli catch us up on the Melusine titles with an extended version of 15 Minutes With You.Hope you enjoy the slightly longer episode!AGFA is a 501c3 and all information on their catalog and how to donate can be found athttps://www.americangenrefilm.com/.Museum of Home Video has been going over 5 years!

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 29, We were lucky to be able to sit down with Austin Jennings, Director of Eight Eyes which got a VSP release. We also review the September and October releases from the mainline plus subs.Off the top I just have to say, holy shit, Austin was an incredible interview. His day job is being a co-founder and director of The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs, so he has had a lot of experience editing and writing and preparing for a film. But the way he breaks down his intent behind Eight Eyes, how he approached it from a technical perspective ... this turned into an accidental audio commentary.It was truly a pleasure to speak to someone like Austin who is a student of the medium, and it seems like he may come back just to geek out about VS which we're excited by.The episode around Austin is Eli and I geeking out about the strong months from VS. I think this one turned out well, Austin's interview starts around the 50-minute mark if you want to get right to it.Eli can be found on most socials @eliolsberg and you can follow him to make sure you see his next porno night screening around LA or catch his standup second Tuesday of every month at the Pleasure Chest.Celeste de la Cabra can be found on most socials at Celeste de la Cabra but is very active on YT and IG right now.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 28, We were lucky to be able to sit down with Joe, one of the co-founders of Vinegar Syndrome, as well as three-time VS champion podcaster Oscar Becher. He wants to always stay at least one episode ahead of Kurtis.Joe and Oscar were extremely candid, as always, and have the old married couple routine nailed down perfectly. They had Eli and I cracking up off mic by fighting over everything from squeaky chairs to what to say and how to respond properly. They are a great interview and it's immediately obvious how passionate they are about preservation.I hope you enjoy this! It's a longtime coming and I'm really happy with how it turned out.Eli can be found on most socials @eliolsberg and you can follow him to make sure you see his next porno night screening around LA or catch his standup second Tuesday of every month at the Pleasure Chest.Celeste de la Cabra can be found on most socials at Celeste de la Cabra but is very active on YT and IG right now.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 27, Eli, Chris, and Celeste walk through a tour of some VS horror that cannot be forgotten. Going all the way back to some of the first 15 releases, we call out some horror that is worth revisiting during the next sale or maybe streaming if its sold out. We end by going over the August releases and should be caught up by mid November.This was a really fun one and I hope everyone either discovers some older titles or screams at us for forgetting an obvious favorite. This episode more than most, please try to find us online and let us know if there are other canonical VS titles we missed.Eli can be found on most socials @eliolsberg and you can follow him to make sure you see his next porno night screening around LA or catch his standup second Tuesday of every month at the Pleasure Chest.Celeste de la Cabra can be found on most socials at Celeste de la Cabra but is very active on YT and IG right now.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 22 we are joined by a fantastic group of panelists to attempt a roundtable discussion and figure out what Vinegar Syndrome is in 2025.I did my best to find a diverse set of interests and backgrounds for the show, but this is very much meant as an open discussion and I would love to hear from anyone!The structure of the episode basically breaks down into three parts:First hour (roughly) is a VS lovefest and we all share our favorite titles and there are probably 50 movie recommendations from the panel.Second portion we attempt to define what VS was, is today, and how OCN fits in.Finally, we sandwich this orgy of hot takes with a round of final thoughts. Not to add spoilers, but we end up discussion why we love this label with warts and all.Panelists include:Robert and Matt from Grindhouse Chic. Robert has been a subscriber since their first year of offering, and generally a fan since the beginning. Matt is an oldhead collector who has recently discovered VS and is in the middle of peak deep-dive.https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/grindhouse-chic/id1776304564Jaden Christopher, returning from Episode 5. He has started a new podcast as well, Podgoblins, and I was excited to bring him on with his infectious energy for the large studio titles.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjhVE4SwMeMRounding out is third time co-host Eli Olsberg. Eli is an accomplished comedian but also hosts a softcore night once a month at the Pussycat Theater in Los Angeles and is about to start a hardcore night with Bat P*ssy and Gums as a double bill.https://www.instagram.com/p/DKxdTKaBh5L/July I'm still figuring out! They have that subscriber week deal and then Celeste and I need to catch up on dozens of movies between VS and Melusine. It will be a busy month!Thank you for those who continue to listen and please let me know how I can make this better!

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time.In Episode 21 we look at the OCN announcements in June for partner month. Pearl Chan, one of the co-founders of Kani Releasing, was a surprise guest and joined to help me gush about the wonderful work Kani is doing as I highlighted their label. To close us out Ryan and Jeremy rejoin for Merch Mates. It's a packed 97 minutes!I have a movie crush on Ariel and Pearl from Kani, I love the work they're doing very much. As I was recording on the 1st I had an idea to reach out to see if they could join last minute, and Pearl could which was great! So the episode is split into me talking about the label and then an interview.Mid June we have something a little different. I am going to try and have a proper panel discussion with a mix of old-time VS heads as well as some new recruits that love the studio titles. We'll see if we can crack the identity of VS in 2025.Thank you for those who continue to listen and please let me know how I can make this better!https://www.kani-releasing.com/
