  1. Episode 16 - Good Omens

    21/01/2021

    Episode 16 - Good Omens

    To the podcast! In this episode, we talk about the greatest love story ever told (on Tumblr): Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchet's 1990 novel Good Omens and its 2019 TV adaptation. Join Kim and Charles as we discuss the rise and fall of tumblr, the development of religious fanaticism over the ages, and the end of the world. Also, queer love. Hooray! It's nice (and accurate). Content warnings: this episode includes discussions of emotional abuse, physical violence, religious extremism, homophobia, and racism.

    Episode 15 - The Little Prince

    Ce n'est pas un homme. C'est un champignon! Charles' sister and former IB French survivor Amy Britton joins the hosts this week to talk about Antoine de Saint Exupéry's classic novella, 'Le Petit Prince', and Mark Osborne's 2015 animated adaptation, 'The Little Prince'. There'll be criticisms of the hosts' French pronunciation, faux-Pixar kookiness, and how the real world is more frightening than Antoine de Saint Exupéry could have ever imagined.

  3. Episode 14 - Twelfth Night and She's The Man

    08/12/2020

    Episode 14 - Twelfth Night and She's The Man

    Some adaptations are born great, some achieve greatness, and some are She's The Man. In our first episode discussing an adaptation of one of Shakespeare's plays, we tackle Andy Fickman's directorial magnum opus (after 'Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2', of course). Hear us talk about comphet, how to eat chicken so that people know you're a MAN, and how to write romances creepier than a 17th century English play. Did we mention we sometimes go to the theatre? CW: extensive discussions of transphobia, homophobia, and sexism.

  4. Episode 13 - Casino Royale

    19/11/2020

    Episode 13 - Casino Royale

    The name's Pod. Scribe to Screen Pod. Join Kim and Charles as we talk about Ian Fleming's 1953 novel Casino Royale, and its 2006 film adaptation featuring our first ever blond Bond! Charles was very invested in this fact. Come hear us talk about that, and also about: the fridging of Vesper Lind, the cinematic legacy of Jason Bourne, and Charles's totally straight, absolutely platonic, definitely-not-a-crush on Daniel Craig (the eyes!!) Content warnings: this episode contains discussions of murder, terrorism, and suicide, a brief but in-depth description of drowning, and some explicit content.

  5. Episode 12 - V For Vendetta

    29/10/2020

    Episode 12 - V For Vendetta

    Remember, remember, the other comics Alan Moore wrote with other Davids. Charles and Kim discuss the film and comic that radicalised baby Kim, analyse the aesthetics of 21st century fascism, and hate on Edmond Dantes. It could only be Alan Moore and David Lloyd's 'V for Vendetta' and the Lily and Lana Wachowski's 2006 adaptation. CW: discussions of racism, homophobia, sexual and domestic abuse, Islamophobia, biological warfare, and plagues.

  6. Episode 11 - The Prince Of Egypt (feat. Mim Kunin)

    15/10/2020

    Episode 11 - The Prince Of Egypt (feat. Mim Kunin)

    There can be episodes! When you believe! Join Kim and Scribe to Screen's first ever guest, Miriam Kunin, as they discuss the book of Exodus and its 1998 musical adaptation The Prince of Egypt. Come hear them and chat about celebratory huts, Moses's White Guilt, and appropriate rhymes for "twig boy". Also, theology. Lots and lots of theology. Yes. :) Content warnings: this episode includes discussions of racism, slavery, and infanticide, and mentions of sexual violence.

    1h 31m
  7. Episode 10 - Crazy Rich Asians

    01/10/2020

    Episode 10 - Crazy Rich Asians

    This is what you give us to work with? Well, honey, we've seen... oh, no, actually we haven't. That's right, it's the worst book we've ever read: Kevin Kwan's Crazy Rich Asians, and its 2018 film adaptation directed by Jon M Chu. Join Kim and Charles as we discuss Asian Family Values, consider how satire works, and go on a ten-minute rant about how to properly punctuate a sentence ending in "lah". Okay, that last one was mostly Kim. Content warnings: this episode contains mentions of sexual content, extensive discussions of racism, and the truly obscene hoarding of wealth.

    1h 21m
  8. Episode 9 - The Shining

    17/09/2020

    Episode 9 - The Shining

    Heeeeeeeeeerrrrrrre's an episode. While trying to fill the Hunger Games-shaped holes in their hearts, Charles and Kim thought it would be fun to venture into the world of horror. What better place to start than with the most adapted living author and one of the mostly hotly debated American films of all time!? It's Stephen King's 'The Shining' and Stanley Kubrick's film project *very* loosely based on 'The Shining'. Come listen to us. You'll never want to leave. Content warning: discussions of graphic violence, alcoholism, domestic abuse, racism
