A week off and refreshed, it’s time to take a look at Jodie Foster’s Death Wish drama, with discussions on Jared Leto and Rami Malek in The Little Things, what your vigilante name would be and Foster’s Erica Bain and her best friend Gunny. This is a silly silly episode with some strong language.
226 - THE PRODUCERS
It’s time to pitch the worst podcast in the world, a guaranteed flop, this show won’t last the night! It’s Mel Brooks’ masterpiece of comedy satire, and NOT the Broadway musical or film adaptation of the Broadway musical, despite Johnny’s best efforts. We’re going back to the source, taking a fine sip of Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder, and pitching a Star Wars musical that’ll make big bucks for those behind the show, and nobody else.
214 - GANGS OF NEW YORK
As America’s election fever grows stale, Andrew and Johnny set their sights on the hands that built America, those of Leonardo ‘Irish’ DiCaprio, and Cameron ‘Irish’ Diaz. But never fear, Jim Broadbent pops in to reminisce on filming Scorsese’s violent epic, and what he’s been up to in lockdown.
186 - GOTTI
Oh gotti, protect us. Andrew insists on watching a film directed by E from Entourage, and brings Johnny down with him. John Travolta plays a mob boss, but the real crime is against cinema, as the duo work out if films are bad or the isolation is just driving insanity further and further into our skulls.
180 - INSIDE MAN
The perfect bank robbery film deserves the perfect podcast episode. But for now, this’ll have to do, as Johnny gets another Spike Lee Joint under his belt, and Andrew remembers the wonderful times of 2006 cinema, when Clive Owen could do just about anything, except be Bond.
016 - A NEW YORK WINTER'S TALE
Andrew and Johnny turn to the cold heart of winter on the start of advent, and the story of 1900s thief, model ship sailor, horse dog rider and somehow 2014 Hugo Cabret enthusiast Peter Lake and his floppy hair in this masterpiece.
