Easy Riders Raging Podcast

Happy holidays everyone! In this festive episode- which kicks off with a musical tribute to the Isle of Wight- Kieran and I discuss the film 'White Christmas'.

This episode it's a pre-COVID conversation (recorded live and in person and everything) between myself and Kieran on the John Huston film, 'The African Queen'.

Following on from our episode on 'Paths of Glory', this week we tackle another anti-war film as Anna Cale joins me for a discussion on J. Lee Thompson's 'Ice Cold in Alex'. A very human drama (with some cracking set piece sequences) set in the midst of World War 2, with lots of gin, beer and tea. And be sure to download Anna's recent appearances on the podcasts 'Nolan Me, Nolan You' and 'The Finch...

This week the Stanley Kubrick conversation continues as I am joined by very special guest David Trumble to discuss the (timely) anti-war film, 'Paths of Glory' (which is an absolute cracker if you haven't seen it- strong recommend).

Just a couple of days ahead of Noirvember, Jev and I sat down to discuss the Stanley Kubrick crime film, 'The Killing' (not to be confused with the Scandi jumper drama, which I'm told was very good).

Today on the podcast we wrap up a wonderful week of 'the Diz' with a conversation about 'Cinderella'.

As part of our continuing coverage of the Disney films of the 1950s, in this episode Kieran and I discuss their 1953 film, 'Peter Pan'.

In this episode Kieran and I continue our Disney coverage with a conversation on 'Alice in Wonderland'. And yes, we do find time to share our thoughts on the Tim Burton version of this story (spoiler- we're not fans).

Recorded back in 2019, Kieran and I continued our Disney coverage with a conversation on the film 'Lady and the Tramp'.

In this episode, kicking off a week- yes, you heard me right, a week- of Disney episodes, Kieran and I discuss 1959's 'Sleeping Beauty'.

In this episode, recorded in person (!) on the Friday night right before the UK went into COVID-19 lockdown back in March, Jev and I wrap up our run on 1950s Hitchcock films with a discussion on 'North by Northwest'.

In this episode- bathed in green light with intermittent trippy dream sequences- Jake, Kieran and Paul climb the tower with our discussion of the Alfred Hitchcock classic 'Vertigo'.

Expect conversation about quiche, chicken, salt and Nice biscuits (we must've been hungry recording this one) as Paul, Kieran and I continue our Hitchcock coverage by discussing 'To Catch a Thief'.

Recorded way back in March, right at the very start of the UK coronavirus lockdown, Paul, Kieran and I got together remotely to discuss one of the most celebrated films of Alfred Hitchcock's career, 'Rear Window'.

In this episode Paul, Kieran and I continue our Alfred Hitchcock coverage by discussing 'Dial M for Murder'. Along the way we learn Kieran loves Columbo, I want to be born into wealth, Paul wants Hitch's cameo to be at a strip club and my cat is a menace.

All aboard as we kick off our run of episodes on Alfred Hitchcock films from the 1950s, starting with a conversation between myself and Campbell on 'Strangers on a Train', which is- in case any of you haven't seen this one- one of Hitchcock's best, that we both strongly recommend.

This week I'm joined by Dan Thomas to discuss the Nicholas Ray film 'In a Lonely Place', starring screen legend, Humphrey Bogart. Along the way we talk about meet-cute's in the morgue, we compare the lead character to OJ Simpson, laugh at the character's name (Dixon Steele!) and talk about how this film is very applicable to the #MeToo era.

Yes, it's another cartoon episode as this week Campbell, Kieran, Paul and I discuss the Bugs Bunny/ Daffy Duck cartoon 'Ali Baba Bunny'.

In this episode Kieran, Paul and I are back discussing Warner Bros. cartoons, and today it's a Marvin the Martian double-bill as we discuss 'The Hasty Hare' (which features our Bugs Bunny) and 'Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century' (which has Daffy Duck as the lead). Oh, and you can also hear quite a bit of conversation about the works of Ardman Animation in the back-end of the podcast.

In this episode, Jev and I discuss Sidney Lumet's courtroom classic, '12 Angry Men'.

In this episode Kieran, Paul and I return to the world of Warner Bros. cartoons by discussing 'One Froggy Evening'.

In this episode Paul, Kieran and I discuss 'Det sjunde inseglet', better known as Ingmar Bergman's 'The Seventh Seal'.

Today on the podcast Paul, Kieran and I discuss the classic cartoon 'Feed the Kitty', which sees bulldog Marc Anthony struggle to protect the oblivious cat Pussyfoot.

This week I'm joined by Liam, Matt and Paul- hosts of Star Trek podcast Spocklight- to discuss the Japanese monster movie classic, 'Godzilla'.

This week it's another cartoon- don't worry we will be back talking about feature films very very soon- but today Paul, Kieran and I are talking about the Oscar-winning short 'Gerald McBoing-Boing' (and also, more than a little, about the Police Academy films).
