S11 Ep30: Casper Kelly's BUDDY Turns Kids' TV Into a Nightmare

Casper Kelly returns to Radio Labyrinth to talk about his new movie BUDDY!

The writer/director behind some of the strangest corners of modern comedy and horror joins us to talk about Buddy, his twisted new horror-comedy that takes the bright, comforting world of children's television and sends it somewhere much, much darker.

We talk with Casper about bringing Buddy to life, developing the wonderfully bizarre world of the film, and what audiences can expect when Buddy arrives in theaters.

Also this week: Spider-Man: Brand New Day becomes the biggest movie of 2026 after an enormous first week, Disney admits The Mandalorian and Grogu and Moana underperformed at the box office, Eli Roth confirms the use of generative AI in Ice Cream Man, and Landman Season 3 gets hit with a major production delay.

Plus Lizzi is back, we've got Quick Hits, and Trailer Trash takes on Violent Night 2, The X-Files: I Want to Believe, and Ebenezer.

It's another trip through the pop-culture maze with Radio Labyrinth Podcast — Season 11, Episode 30.
