The Short Ends: More Babies
In an attempt to maintain our sanity amidst deadlines and life generally, we bring you another episode of our <b>Short Ends</b> series, which we've used in the past to feature additional discussions that have either gone long, didn't fit, or generally felt like they were worthy of standing on their own. We've slightly expanded this design to hopefully include more low-key and informal chats with friends, fans and listeners, without the pressure of one of our regular, deeply researched Sin Syndicate episodes (that you've come to know and love).<br /><br />All that build up to say, we've got unofficial Gap Theatre correspondent and New Jersey native Jeffery Petrone on the show to talk about a secret screening of "Wilbur and the Baby Factory" that he recently attended. Jeffery is a passionate fan of all genres of film and has recently caught the sexploitation bug. We were happy to talk to him about his impressions of this Harry Novak distributed anti-overpopulation, Master Race satire, sort of sex film. Of course, we've also got plenty of news and updates from the World of Sexploitation, literally, from America to Argentina to England to Japan. Will I ever be able to rescue Casey from Roman Porno land? <br /><br /><b>Episode Specific:</b><br />Listen to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0b2vxr1-vd8" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">"Baby Factory"</a><br />Visit <a href="https://thegaptheatre.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Gap Theatre</a><br />View Jeffery's <a href="https://letterboxd.com/jep76/list/petrone-personal-taste-top-10-of-1960s-sexploitation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Top 10 of 1960s Sexploitation</a><br /><br /><b>Links:</b><br />Join the community on <a href="https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheSinSyndicate" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Patreon</a><br />Instagram with us at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thesinsyndicatepod/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Sin Syndicate </a><br />Follow us on Letterboxd: <a href="https://letterboxd.com/gentryaustin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gentry</a> &<a href="https://letterboxd.com/manofsteel26/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Casey</a><br />Check out the <a href="https://www.cultpix.com/somethingweird" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Something Weird Channel</a><br />Listen to other podcasts on <a href="https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/network" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone's Favorite Productions</a><br />Contact: thesinsyndicatepodcast@gmail.com

Back to Marzanoland
<b></b>That’s right, we’re going <b>Back to Marzanoland</b>. If you’ve been a consistent listener, you’ll know that in Episode 38, “Trodden Underfoot,” we discussed the Joseph Marzano film <i>Venus in Furs</i> (1967) with author and fetish historian <a href="https://schifferbooks.com/products/john-willie?srsltid=AfmBOoo5EElaBmqIeFfZ73nxxrxefvifDxgcdIR5Vz5b_Gcso3oD9bOr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jane Garrett</a>. After the release of that episode, low-budget Long Island filmmaker and sexploitation super-fan Nathan Schiff reached out to us to share some stories about his own personal relationship with Marzano before his death. It’s fair to say, Nathan had stories. In fact, so many that this three hour podcast can barely contain them all.<br /><br />A few selections include: film distributor Harry Novak and his notorious “archive,” producer George Weiss writing Olga copy (and teaching proper whipping and tying technique), and an auspicious final encounter with a despondent Janet Banzet. Of course, we also discuss Marzano’s sexploitation career, and hear more stories about the productions of <i>Cool It, Baby</i> and <i>Venus in Furs</i>. Plus, more about muscle-bound masseur Shep Wild and mob wife Barbara Ellen. But that’s just scratching the surface. Researchers, friends, fans, Milligan-heads, pull out your notebooks, grab a bottle of Fanta, we’re talking Marzano and Co. with Nathan Schiff, and rewatching <i>The Degenerates</i> for the 16th time.<br /><b></b><br /><b>Episode Specific:</b><br />Listen to our episode on <i>Venus in Furs</i>, <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/episode/trodden-underfoot--71735301" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">"Trodden Underfoot"</a><br />Read "Sexploitation!" at the <a href="https://magicktheatre.wordpress.com/2015/10/20/sexploitation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Magick Theatre</a><br />Learn more about Nathan Schiff from <a href="http://bleedingskull.com/tag/directed-by-nathan-schiff/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bleeding Skull</a><br />Read "An Enraged Eye: Nathan Schiff’s Vermilion Eyes as Anti-Film" at <a href="https://brightlightsfilm.com/an-enraged-eye-nathan-schiffs-vermilion-eyes-as-anti-film/amp/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bright Lights Film Journal</a><br />View Marzano's early films at <a href="https://film-makerscoop.com/filmmakers/joseph-marzano" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Film-Makers' Coop</a><br />Special thanks: Nathan Schiff, Jane Garrett<br /><br /><b>Links:</b><br />Join the community on <a href="https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheSinSyndicate" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Patreon</a><br />Instagram with us at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thesinsyndicatepod/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Sin Syndicate </a><br />Follow us on Letterboxd: <a href="https://letterboxd.com/gentryaustin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gentry</a> &<a href="https://letterboxd.com/manofsteel26/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Casey</a><br />Check out the <a href="https://www.cultpix.com/somethingweird" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Something Weird Channel</a><br />Listen to other podcasts on <a href="https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/network" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone's Favorite Productions</a><br />Contact: thesinsyndicatepodcast@gmail.com

The Power of the Horn
Where else are you going to find a worldwide exclusive what Christina Lindberg is going to wear on the <a href="https://www.festival-cannes.com/en/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cannes 2026</a> red carpet? For Episode 39, "<b>The Power of the Horn</b>," The Sin Syndicate have connected with our brothers from another mother, the purveyers of Swedish Sin, Rickard Gramfors & Patrick von Sychowski, co-partners of the Stockholm-based multimedia company Klubb Super 8 and streaming platform Cultpix. With so much to cover, we didn't want to focus on just one film, although their most recent release for <a href="https://melusine.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Melusine</a>, <i>Come Blow the Horn!</i> does get some special love.<br /><br />Other topics include, but are not limited to: Stellan Skarsgård hanging dong, <i>Sweden: Heaven or Hell</i>, Swedish Roman Porno, puritanical censorship, the social realism of <i>A Woman Heats Up a Sauna</i>, lost American movies in the Swedish Film Archives, the mysterious Cornelius "Corny" Flickenheimer and…Mr. Penguin?<br /><br />It was an absolute joy to talk to the Klubb boys, who are fighting the good fight, and in many ways, are the <a href="https://somethingweird.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Something Weird Video</a> of Northern Europe, unconstrained by genre, unafraid of controversy, and actively working to broaden cinematic horizons beyond Bergman. So, close the blinds and join us for a horn blowing. Just don't waste your horniness.<br /><br /><b>Episode Specific:</b><br />Visit <a href="https://klubbsuper8.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Klubb Super 8</a><br />Subscribe to <a href="https://www.cultpix.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cultpix</a><br />Buy <i><a href="https://melusine.com/collections/frontpage/products/come-blow-the-horn" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Come Blow the Horn! </a></i><br />End music by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSNMUmF7z8DzPc3Yji9HlwA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fäbodjäntan</a><br />Special thanks: Rickard Gramfors, Patrick von Sychowski, Kalle Lagerroos<br /><br /><b>Links:</b><br />Join the community on <a href="https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheSinSyndicate" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Patreon</a><br />Instagram with us at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thesinsyndicatepod/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Sin Syndicate </a><br />Follow us on Letterboxd: <a href="https://letterboxd.com/gentryaustin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gentry</a> &<a href="https://letterboxd.com/manofsteel26/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Casey</a><br />Check out the <a href="https://www.cultpix.com/somethingweird" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Something Weird Channel</a><br />Listen to other podcasts on <a href="https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/network" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone's Favorite Productions</a><br />Contact: thesinsyndicatepodcast@gmail.com
