#65: Night of the Demon

In the first of our Halloween specials, we review a classic 1957 British horror movie.

Can you imagine the level of a mind that watches wrestling?

This week we watched Hannah and Her Sisters, which is the second Woody Allen film to make it onto our list after Annie Hall way back in podcast number two. When editing the podcast, I realised we made a bit of an error – we call Michael Caine’s character Harry all the way through, butContinue reading “Can you imagine the level of a mind that watches wrestling?”

#62: The King of Kong

I’d love to write more, but there’s a Donkey Kong kill screen coming up, must dash.

You realize of course that we could never be friends

Oh dear. We’ve been a bit rubbish recently haven’t we? Between the summer, busy jobs, ladies and holidays we haven’t had much time at all for the podcast. Don’t worry listeners, Lewis and I are suitably chastised (we pay someone to do it). This week (although as this write-up has taken so long it wasContinue reading “You realize of course that we could never be friends”
