  1. 18/08/2022

    Good Luck To You Leo Grande, The Bear, Back To The Future and more

    It's the end of the season and there's an end-of-term feel as James lifts the lid on a hot new cooking show, predicts an Oscar winner and reveals his favourite film of all time. As guests Emily Brookes and Kylie Klein-Nixon reveal their top season finales, James reminisces about a snowglobe. And there's a bold call for a rather unlikely health service to get public funding.

    A League of Their Own, The Sandman, Prey and more

    You want giant aliens, talking cats and stripping steelworkers? We got 'em! Albeit not in the same thing. That would be ridiculous. (Or would it? Hollywood - we're available!) Anyway, in the latest edition of the pod that takes the stress out of streaming, James, Kylie and Emily discuss where Prey rates in the Predator series, what's wrong with the latest big-budget animation and a nudey-rudey Britflick classic.

    The Princess, Thirteen Lives, Panic Room and more

    Princess Diana's death stopped the world. A new documentary attempts to explain its causes, significance and ramifications using only archival footage. James and guests Bridget Jones and Kylie-Klein Nixon discuss the film - and share their memories of the Diana's 1983 visit to Aotearoa. Two other true stories are also on today's line-up: the Melanie Lynskey-starring Candy and Ron Howard's dramatisation of the incredible 2018 rescue of a Thai football team from a flooded cave system.

    Paper Girls, Hitmen, Apollo 13 and more

    Are there really loads of shows about time loops this year? Or are we just reviewing the same one time and time again? Are there really loads of shows about time loops this year? Or are we just ... kidding? Anyway, James and co deliver their verdicts on "the new Stranger Things" and "the ultimate dad flick". And are their really loads of shows about time loops this year?
