Generation Exploitation was a Vancouver based print zine. The zine ceased publication in 2006, but spun off a podcast that still broadcasts on a regular basis.

[edit] Strange Movies, Weird Records

The Generation Exploitation print zine chronicled unexplored movies from 1930-1980, interviews with older comedians and previously untold tales from the world of vinyl, such as the story of the Evatone Soundsheet. The first issue of the zine, subtitled From the Drive-in to the Bargain Bin, was released in 2004. It featured a cover story on the "Christian Action Films of Erik Estrada", a genre never previously explored.[1] In 2006 the Generation Exploitation website featured an elaborate and personal history of Spire Christian Comics. The article garnered mass interest around the internet.[2]

[edit] Podcast

The Generation Exploitation Podcast started broadcasting from Vancouver in September 2006. It features a mixture of strange vinyl records, unintentionally funny and old time hammy comedy LPs, and a selection of rare, up-tempo pop music from the fifties and sixties. A new podcast appears every Tuesday evening.[3]
