Episode 6: The Coca Cola Kid 08.06.2022 1:46:03

Send a text Daniel and David discuss the 1985 curio The Coca Cola Kid. Do stars Eric Roberts and Greta Scacchi possess so little chemistry together that they create cinema's first chemistry black hole?

Episode 5: Ruben Guthrie 27.05.2022 1:38:24

Send a text David and Daniel discuss 2015's Ruben Guthrie, Brendan Cowell's feature film debut about one man battling Australian culture in a fight to stay sober. So is this movie a fine bottle of Penfolds Grange? Or is it a goon bag of Fruity Lexia?? Please enjoy - responsibly.

Episode 4: Heaven Tonight 11.05.2022 1:21:39

Send a text Daniel and David discuss the 1990 Guy Pearce/John Waters (but... more John Waters) movie Heaven Tonight. This movie has been all but forgotten, but does it deserve to be? For a movie about the music industry, why is the music so lacklustre? And does this movie feature the most over zealous hot dog vendor in cinema history? Please enjoy.

Episode 3: Walkabout 01.05.2022 1:43:59

Send a text David and Daniel talkabout Walkabout, Nic Roeg's incredible, one-of-a-kind masterpiece from the year 1971 (you might remember that year as being the one that took place two years after the moon landing). It's stars Jenny Agutter, Luc Roeg and Australian acting royalty David Gulpilil in his film debut. Please enjoy!

Episode 2: Welcome to Woop Woop 12.04.2022 1:38:20

Send a text Daniel and David discuss Stephan Elliott's misunderstood masterpiece/misfire (depending on your point of view) Welcome to Woop Woop. Daniel questions whether George Lucas pays homage to this movie in the prequels. David earns his film cred by confusing Baz Luhrmann with Martin Scorsese. Please enjoy!
