In this special episode, we spotlight one of our all time favorite directors who barely gets any coverage in press, even by fans of obscure cinema. We’re changing that today! cTom is one of the aliases of a mysterious film director who had an incredible run of directing six feature films from 2011-13. These are extremely low budget productions, starring unknown actors, but the conceptual scope of all of them is extremely ambitious. Our personal favorite is THE PRESIDENT GOES TO HEAVEN, a satire about a former United States president who falls into a coma and converts to Islam while unconscious and awaiting an illegal organ transplant. C Tom’s politics are basically impossible to pin down, because his writing is pretty incoherent, but the way this film blends webs of conspiracy theories, theological discussions, and toilet humor makes for an endlessly compelling watch. Our friend, reporter and author Lenny Flatley, shares our appreciation for C Tom, so we’re excited to have him back on to talk about the director’s work, and Lenny’s own upcoming book New Age Grifter: The True Story of Gabriel of Urantia and His Cosmic Family, which comes out on August 17, 2021.  Buy Lenny's new book  New Age Grifter: The True Story of Gabriel of Urantia and His Cosmic Family Check out Lenny's work, with links to all his articles and podcasts: https://www.lennyflatley.net Follow Lenny on Twitter: https://twitter.com/lennyflatley  Read Lenny's article on cTom View our full episode list and subscribe to any of our public feeds: http://boysbiblestudy.com Unlock 2+ bonus episodes per month: http://patreon.com/boysbiblestudy Subscribe to our Twitch for monthly streams: http://twitch.tv/boysbiblestudy Follow us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/boysbiblestudy Follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/boysbiblestudy

The President Goes to Heaven (2011), cTom, and Outsider Cinema feat. Lenny Flatley

The year is 2030, and Christians' rights are violated by oppressive institutions such as universal healthcare. Can a ragtag band of hacker jocks use their cyber skills to proselytize to the entire world? Lenny Flatley, the investigative journalist behind the podcast The So-Called Prophet from Pittsburgh joins us to analyze Freedom of Silence (2011) a Christian feature film with a libertarian bent. Along the way, we discuss at length the work of two of our favorite "outsider" filmmakers - ctom and Neil Breen. Links to Lenny's work including his brilliant podcast can be found at https://www.lennyflatley.net/. "The So-Called Prophet from Pittsburgh" is Gabriel of Urantia, a self-proclaimed holy man who currently presides over a spiritual community (some call it a cult) in the desert of Southern Arizona. The eight part series investigates his life and times.
