Summary
This week, we are joined by Scott Weinberg ( @weinbergs.bsky.social ), the host of the Overhated Podcast , to discuss one of his favorite cult classics, the 1980 adaptation of Flash Gordon . Join us as we discuss the music by Queen, the stellar supporting cast, and the striking visuals. We finish the episode with a Retro Recast, as we recast the film as if it was made during a different time period.
