We’re all isolated across the globe, but for this week it’s a trip to the desolate Mojave, as Gore Verbinski’s Oscar-winning western animated adventure comes into view. Talking family movies, quarantine life and the career of the Pirates Of The Caribbean director, maybe some sanity will be found here.
BONUS - ISOLATION TEST - DISNEY+ TALK
As Covid-19 has put us all in self-isolation, the usual episode feeling of being together, feeding off one-another’s energy is out the window. Testing out online recording for future use, Andrew and Johnny talk Better Call Saul (SPOILERS), Disney+, hint at next week’s episode and Johnny Cash of course comes up once again.
182 - MARGARET
Sitting on the shelf after a long time, we release an episode on Kenneth Lonergan’s much-delayed epic human drama, where Johnny has some sort of comprehensive understanding of humanity and the universe, and Andrew reminisces on the single-screen opening day in London.
181 - A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION
Robert Altman’s final film comprises death, country music and a huge cast. Are You Movie Mad?’s episode on Robert Altman’s final film comprises watching films, not singing music very well and two people in a room. It’s like yin meets yang!
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.
MINI-SERIES - FAST FRIDAYS - A PROLOGUE
Andrew announces a new mini-series in the Corona-infested world of action, family and turning enemies into friends.
Will he discover how the virus spread? What happened to John Cena? Why drop almost every letter in the titles for the 9th (or 10th) movie?
Begun, the adventure has.
179 - THE AFRICAN QUEEN
What other podcast can go from 2019 to 1951 in such a smooth move? Johnny’s not seen maybe any Katherine Hepburn picture before, and Andrew is forced to listen to Billie Eilish for the first time. Johnny then delves into time travel more as he explains the manifestations of DC’s TV shows.
