We’re tuning in to the most shocking of disk jockeys for a biographical picture episode regarding that old rapscallion Howard Stern, and this of course means the return of beloved guest Paul Giamatti to discuss Jungle Cruise and the name “Pig Vomit”.
230 - BLOODSHOT
VIN DIESEL, BABY!
Andrew has watched this a bunch of times in lockdown because it’s the most recent Vin flick, Johnny never saw it. Will Guy Pearce’s ever-changing accents add to the experience, or the action scene definitely meant to be in London that looks nothing like anything ever? Will cinema ever matter again? What is pandemic brain cinema anyway?
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.
BACKSTAGE AT THE BLUEBIRD - 003 - SOMEDAY YOU'LL CALL MY NAME
Things get a little crazy backstage this week, as Andrew and Johnny contemplate the amount of ‘Daddy’ talk in this week’s episode, forget names of characters, and continually engage in the ‘will they/won’t they’ of Rayna and Juliette’s upcoming tour prospects.
BACKSTAGE AT THE BLUEBIRD - 001 - PILOT
Johnny gets Nashville fever and brings Andrew to the ABC drama, all the country music pulls, Powers Boothe as Daddy and Chip Esten’s twin brother Charles dominate the discussion on the hit show’s pilot episode.
BONUS - FRIGHTFEST DAY 2
Hours after we recorded Day One we lost a modern cinema titan, and so tributes are paid to Chadwick Boseman, before heading into discussion on Day 2 of FrightFest online.
The films reviewed are The Columnist, The Horror Crowd, They’re Outside and Don’t Click.
BONUS - CATS COMMENTARY
It’s digital release day for Cats in the UK and Johnny is all fur-ious that he’s not watching it with Andrew, and Andrew wishes he could paws life for the 2 hours it takes to sit through Tom Hooper’s Cats. Come join the experience through heaven or hell or heavyside layer, no matter your thoughts on the musical, you can all understand what listening to a tortured soul sounds like.
Now on Sky Cinema, if you dare! Here’s the UK TV Broadcast-syncable version:
119 - THE ARISTOCRATS
Andrew takes Johnny on a comedic journey through an old joke that barely has a punch-line in an episode full of them. Take heed when Ringo Starr drops by to chat, and both hosts attempt to tell their own versions of The Aristocrats.
