Deets With Dita

In this week's episode, I talk about the thing everyone is using in these times - streaming sites. Often the origin of streaming sites are not even thought about. I saved you that research and explore in as much detail as possible this history. As well as this, I evaluate which streaming sites have the best quality of content out at the moment (I feel like we already know the answer to that). Fina...

In the 10th episode of the podcast, I get one of my best friends Kiran to discuss some good old classic Disney films.

As well as this, we explore some of the hidden gem films which we claim to be underrated. Finally, Kiran surprises me at the...

In this week's spoiler filled episode, I look into both the film and book adaptations of 'Room', giving a quick overview of what the story is actually about as well as some interesting facts about the story. Throughout this episode, I discuss the similarities and differences between these two adaptations. After all of that, I decide whether the film or the book was better. Enjoy :)

In this week's episode, Krishna and I talk about female representation in films and tv shows. From the famous Bechdel test to a case study (listen to the episode to find which film), we go into immense detail surrounding the topic. Also, we discuss how Hollywood attempt female reboots (are they really successful?) as well as how females are generally represented in films. Finally, we explore a pre...

In this week's episode, I am essentially gushing about the amazing New Zealand born filmmaker and actor, Taika Waititi. I decide to rank all of his lesser known, non-franchise films in order of my least favourite to my absolute favourite of all time but (spoiler alert) they are all amazing films! These films are: Boy, Jojo Rabbit, Eagle vs Shark, What We Do In The Shadows and Hunt For The Wilderpe...

In this amazing episode, Matt and I are pitted against each other in a heated debate on the Academy Award winning film for Best Picture, The Shape of Water, directed by Guillermo del Toro. We discuss the unique plot of the film as well as the use of cinematography to add small Easter eggs that you wouldn't normally understand the first time you watch it. Also, we investigate how music is a key dri...

In a world dominated by recognition for work and art forms, I question one of the biggest organisations to hand this recognition out. The Academy Awards. In this episode, I dive into the history of the Academy awards as well as the response young people have to this organisation. Also, I discuss the famous snubs and the viewership over the years. Let's not forget my favourite segment of the show w...

In this rollercoaster of an episode, I talk about the popular television show Glee with my good friend Nibs. We debate the best (and worst) Glee singing performances throughout the show whilst addressing some of the problematic storylines that Glee got away with in the past but could never get away with now. As well as this, we have a CHARACTER SHOWDOWN (it's more dramatic when you hear me say it...

In this episode, I talk about a super important topic to me which is Ethnic Representation. I discuss some of the tv shows and films that have given me some disappointing representation to some blockbuster film events that have been impactful for different ethnic communities. As well as this, I talk about my experiences of Indian representation in various forms of media growing up and explain what...
