Mike Veerman, host of “Mike on Much”, and pop culture aficionado Shane Cunningham, along with their long-time friend, award winning writer/director/producer (and MENSA member) Jonathan Popalis, all bring you “The Pedestal” podcast, presented by MUCH studios. Join them for a deep dive into some of the movies we all hold near dear to our hearts — and debate whether or not they really belong there. On each episode, the case is argued FOR and AGAINST a certain film standing the test of time, and is ultimately voted to either stay on the pedestal it’s been held up on ... or be kicked off of it.

In this episode, it’s an excellent day for an exorcism, with the 1973 supernatural horror film THE EXORCIST.
After Pops reveals the movie that scared him the most as a kid (Spoiler: Gremlins), we begin the case for keeping it on the pedestal with the movie’s most audacious and outrageous lines. We laud the patience and process it has with its story, talk about how its incredible special effects still hold up, and Shane and Pops argue over what is truly the best scene. We move onto the case for knocking it off the pedestal with the bizarre and abhorrent British director character. We wonder how long it would actually take to be convinced that someone was possessed, Shane admonishes the priests for not tag-teaming the demon, as we all take issue with “Captain Howdy”.
