American International Podcast (Jeff Markin and Cheryl Lightfoot)

For over three decades, American International Pictures released movies that were amazing, colossal, incredible, and sometimes abominable, and made for an audience that had long been underserved: the American teenager. The studio released everything from monster movies to biker flicks to Edgar Allen Poe adaptations - films with lurid titles, controversial subject matter and some surprisingly big names.

Beloved by B-movie fans everywhere, AIP has produced hundreds of films since it was founded in 1954, but there’s never been a podcast devoted to these masters of schlock and awe…until now! Each episode of The American International Podcast will look at a film from the iconic studio and talk about the cast, the plot, the production and the movie's history and cultural impact..

Just in time for the studio's 69th anniversary, The American International Podcast is coming April 2nd to all podcast platforms.

The American International Podcast is part of the Pop Culture Entertainment Network.
