    THE EXPERT PODCAST: Marty Supreme; Sorry, Baby; Hamnet; If I Had Legs I'd Kick You

    It's not what you know now, it's what you're prepared to learn now. That's the sign of a person who is able to grow — Amelia Berry, 2026 Hullo! Happy awards season and welcome to Cinema Bing Bong: the only podcast prepared to ask the big questions by Googling stuff. The Oscar nominations have been set free into the world. Amelia doesn't know any celebrity memes or red carpet looks. Rebecca has no idea who won a Golden Globe. Every movie has someone falling through the ceiling or a big hole or both. Should children be depicted in film as having personalities? Should every movie have a rapper in it? Is Hamnet awful? Is Marty Supreme the first film to demonstrate an American self-awareness? Amelia gives an overview of New Zealand copyright law and an update on her relationship with her dentist. Yet curiously tries to stop Rebecca talking about the film Ferrari again. Rebecca's news source is South American twitter. Amelia asks the listeners for four hundred dollars.
