"Lupus in Fabula"... The Wolf in the story. This proverb is the equivalent for "speak of the devil", and what better way to introduce the antagonist to any story than to utter their name? Say Hi To The Bad Guy is a podcast that will dive into some of the most (in)famous Bad Guys, Villains, and Antagonists from the past and present. Was Thanos right? Is Tony Soprano a "Bad Guy"? Is Rose from Titanic really just a villain? Join me for some fun exploring the often overlooked piece to any story... THE BAD GUY! After all... A Hero is only as good as his Villain.

Say Hi To The Bad Guy

"It’s easier to live a convenient lie than a painful truth": Revolver Ocelot (Metal Gear Solid)

Talk about a core memory! The PlayStation visuals of Revolver Ocelot torturing Solid Snake will forever be ingrained in my memory, along with all the memorable boss battles this baddie has provided for almost two decades! Revolver Ocelot is our first video game villain, and I could not have picked a better jumping off point than the man who literally plays every side of the fence in the brilliant Metal Gear Solid series. As a series that contains a bevy of bosses and amazing characters, Hideo Kojima never fails when delivering game characters that have depth, character, and a story. Hope you all enjoy this talk as much as I did... The nostalgia was hitting today! Please drop me a line at badguypod@proton.me or hit me up on Twitter @TheBadGuy_Pod

"Not enough gun": Saint of Killers (Preacher)

"Before the world shook to the thunder of his guns, there was yet some good in his heart: and that was the tragedy." These words from the actual Preacher, Jesse Custer, couldn't ring any truer when describing this episode's Bad Guy, the Saint of Killers. This guy is not too well known, and that's a shame, because his Bad Guy arc is one of the best ones you'll ever read or watch. Preacher had a 4-season run on AMC but before that it was a comic book created by Garth Ennis & Steve Dillon. One of my all-time favorite runs I read growing up, this character deserves more shine and I hope you'll enjoy me rambling on about how cool the Saint of Killers is!

"Au revoir, Shoshanna!": Hans Landa (Inglourious Basterds)

Talk about a smooth operator with the brutality to match it! Hans Landa, portrayed by Christoph Waltz, was a masterclass in how to nail being a villain... To me, Inglourious Basterds isn't the same movie without his inclusion, and the irony of his character's arc is one of the best in recent memory. Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece of a movie happens to be my favorite movie of his, and by Tarantino's own admission, Hans Landa, may be the best character he's ever written. Landa uses his hubris and intellect to steal almost every scene he is in, and that's saying a lot when he's sharing screen space with Brad Pitt! "I love rumors! Facts can be so misleading, where rumors, true or false, are often revealing." - Hans Landa Please drop me a line at badguypod@proton.me or hit me up on Twitter @TheBadGuy_Pod

"Some men just want to watch the world burn": The Joker!

Episode 1 is here, and I just couldn't resist kicking things off with none other than The Joker! One of my favorite Bad Guys to ever do it (and still doing it), this episode should be looked at as a teaser for future Joker breakdowns... From the comics, to the movies, to the video games, The Joker has been Batman's nemesis numero uno for quite a while now and across every medium. Whether we are discussing Heath Ledger's legendary portrayal of him, or Mark Hamill's brilliant voicework as him, The Joker is everyone's favorite Bad Guy clown!
