  EP: 96 Fandom Is Where It Begins: Jason Leavy

  Oct 1, 202658 min

  Send us Fan Mail Before the movie that scares you becomes the career you build, there's a VHS cover you couldn't walk past. Jason Leavy grew up in a Staten Island house where movie night meant Freddy, Chucky, Gremlins, and a little green troublemaker with a pot of gold. Today he's the co-founder of Fuzz on the Lens Productions and a producer on Terrifier 2 and Terrifier 3. He co-wrote, produced, and acted in STREAM, and he co-directed and produced Leprechaun Revenge, a love letter to the franchise he grew up on. Jason and his brother Michael went from homemade shoots to a high school TV studio to helping build one of the biggest independent horror phenomena in years. We talk about the movies that built them, what it's like to watch a new horror icon emerge while you're standing on set, and what it means for two lifelong fans to bring back Ozzie Jones and the Leprechaun themselves. And with Lionsgate now developing a brand-new Leprechaun film, the timing is hard to ignore. What does it feel like when the franchise you made a fan film for finally gets its own shot? Because sometimes fandom isn't where the journey ends. It's where it begins. Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman Audio composed and edited by Lauren M.

  Rainbow Brite and Beyond: The Bettina Bush Story

  Sep 24, 20261h 12m

  Send us Fan Mail She was Rainbow Brite. She was Lucy Little. She was Dotty Dog. And she was only twelve years old when one of those roles began with an improvised voice for a black-and-white sketch. Bettina Bush joins Back to Pop to look back on a career that shaped Saturday mornings, from her earliest days as a child actor, to the audition that became Rainbow Brite, to credits spanning The Littles, The Get Along Gang, My Little Pony, and beyond. With Rainbow Brite's 40th anniversary and a franchise revival underway, Bush reflects on what it's like to watch a character she created decades ago step into a new generation.

  Ep:93 Batdriven West: Karen Whitfield's Bronze Age Batgirl Story

  Sep 10, 20261h 2m

  Send us Fan Mail From 1978 to 1984, Karen Whitfield toured alongside Adam West and Burt Ward as DC Comics' Bronze Age Batgirl — suiting up in the cape and cowl for audiences across America and getting a front-row seat to who Batman and Robin really were when the cameras stopped rolling. She was 20 years old. She left Durham, North Carolina for California. And then, for nearly 35 years, she barely spoke of it. In this episode, Karen opens up about the audition that changed her life, what it actually felt like wearing that costume, the real Adam West behind the dry humor, and why it took her decades to finally tell her story in the book Batdriven West . This is a conversation about identity, legacy, and what it means to hang up the cape, and pick it back up again.

  EP: 92 The Instrument You Can’t Hold: JP Karliak Goes Beyond the Voice

  Sep 3, 202646 min

  Send us Fan Mail Morph. The Joker. Countless characters you’d recognize instantly, and a voice you’d never place a face to. This week, JP Karliak steps out from behind the mic to talk about what it actually means to become someone else for a living. We go past the credits and into the craft: how JP prepares an instrument that isn’t a violin or a guitar, but himself, his voice, his body, his nervous system. He talks about stepping into Morph in X-Men ’97 , carrying forward a character first brought to life in the early ’90s X-Men: The Animated Series, and about building a completely different kind of performance as the Joker in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. But this episode isn’t really about characters. It’s about creativity, fear, failure, and what success looks like once you’ve actually achieved it. JP also opens up about his work with Queer Vox and NerdsVote, and what keeps him grounded when the mic is off. All things JP can be found below. https://linktr.ee/jpkarliak?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=551ba552-d638-4046-886b-eb2cc6469f48 To learn more about either Nerds Vote or Queervox the links are below. https://www.nerdsvote.com/ https://queervox.org/ Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman Audio composed and edited by Lauren M.

  Ep: 91 Silhouettes, Shadows & Legacy Characters — Mike Goguen on the Craft of Animation

  Aug 27, 20261h 19m

  Send us Fan Mail Mike takes us behind the curtain on the creative process: how a character comes together, why silhouette and shape language matter more than people realize, and what it really means to inherit a character fans already love before you ever pick up a pencil. We dig deep into three animated milestones that still command cult followings , Batman: Mask of the Phantasm , The Batman vs. Dracula, and Justice League: The New Frontier, talking about tone, atmosphere, and what it took to push animated storytelling into more cinematic territory. From there we travel through Eternia with He-Man, swing through the city with Spider-Man, and slow down for some comedy timing with Scooby-Doo and ALF (yes, there’s a story about a concerned grandmother). Mike closes out his animation career on an Emmy-nominated note with Kung Fu Panda, and shares what a surprising new chapter, acting, has taught him about performance from the other side of the frame. If you grew up with these characters, this is a conversation about the people who shaped how you saw them. ️ New episodes every Thursday backtopopmedia.com Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman Audio composed and edited by Lauren M.
