See Hear Podcast Episode 24 - Ishtar - a podcast by Bernard Stickwell, Tim Merrill, Maurice Bursztynski

See Hear podcast is back for 2016. Did you miss us???? Don’t
answer because….telling the truth can be dangerous business.Tim, Bernard, and Maurice discuss a film hand-picked by the
wonderful Frank Santopadre of Gilbert Gottfried’s Amazing Colossal Podcast.That film is 1987’s Ishtar starring Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty as Chuck
Clarke and Lyle Rogers, two awful songwriters and lounge singers who get sentto play gigs at a hotel in Ishtar, but get caught up in American / Middle
Eastern politics. Strangely familiar?The film was a financial failure with rumours of creative conflict
between the director, comedian Elaine May (of the brilliant May and Nicholsduo) and Beatty&Hoffman. It has long been derided by the critics and many
others as one of the worst films ever made. With bravery and fortitude, the SeeHear Crew went in to find out if the film was as bad as reports had made it
out. We are pleased to report that there was disagreement among the crew as tothe film’s merits – conflict makes a film more interesting, and so it does for
members of a podcast. Forget Siskel and Ebert or Stratton and Pomeranz. We giveyou the infamous Ishtar Disagreement of Merrill, Stickwell and Bursztynski.Many thanks to Frank for this selection.If you dig what we do, could you please rate us at
iTunes or even better, spread the word that the show exists so more folks cantune in.
