It took me a while, but I am finally releasing the Retroist Xanadu Podcast. In this episode, I start off talking about how I liked to enjoy this film as a kid. This leads to an encounter with one of my sister’s boyfriends that did not go well (for him).
Then I move onto the film and talk about its inspirations, the people in front of and behind the camera, the soundtrack and much more.
This is probably the finest roller disco themed film about Greek mythology that has ever been made. I hope this episode encourages you to check it out.

Production Notes
This is episode 201 of the Retroist Podcast.
The reason this was episode 251 was because I almost chose it for my 250th episode. That is how much this silly film meant to me as a kid. I loved it then and I love it now.
Music on the show is, as always, by Peachy.
Thanks for listening to the show and I hope you have a great weekend.
