The Jonathan Files

We went out for dinner tonight, and on the way home Jon wanted to record First off, today Jon used Garageband to create a new theme for his podcast, what do you think? Then Jon talked about his idea for a movie about Confucius. He's been interested in this for quite a while. We had fun recording as we always do, and this time Isabelle is also on the podcast. We hope you like it.

So Jon and I went to see the Greyhounds vs the Ottawa 67s. We've had bad luck so far this year as have the 'Hounds at home. Oddly they haven't lost on the road. so we recorded this one waiting for Isabelle to pick us up. Happily the Greyhounds won in OT. You'll even get the sound of an overtime goal thrown in. On the left you see the game winning goal being scored, as mentioned in overtime. It was...

Tonight Jon and I went to the opening game of the 2016-17 OHL season for the hometown Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. This sort of cries out for a Jonathan Files, so, we recorded. I got a new phone, let's see how it does with the recording and such..... everything was fine until the third period when Windsor scored 5 unanswered goals. Still we had fun. Oh I swore a couple of times in this one, sorry....

Hi everyone. It has been quite a long time since Jon and have done one of these. Things have been very busy for the both of us, Jon has started his second year of high school, and I'm back to teaching from my sabbatical. Anyway, we're back with a review of 'Sully' which we just saw. IT'S A PLANE CRASH MOVIE OF COURSE HE LOVED IT. I was quite enamoured of it as well, though I don't think they treat...

We recorded this one in our trailer while we were camping. We're back to having internet now, so I'm posting this. We took the Chi cheemaun ferry from South Baymouth to Tobermory Ontario and then camped on the Bruce peninsula. We stayed there for a couple of days and then moved on down to London to visit Maddie and grandma. The ferry was fun, much smaller than the one we took from Newfoundland, bu...

Five out of Five for all three of us

yeah you will be able to guess what he gave it out of five

Well as we all know Jon loves movies. We also all know Jon gives all of them 5 out of 5, well, except for back when he gave them 3 out of 5, and he did give Gnomeo and Juliet 1 out of 5. OK, maybe he just likes ALMOST everything. Anyway, Jon and his pal JC went and saw Neighbours 2 yesterday. Of course the world needs a Jonathan Files review. I'm guessing five out of five on this one, hell, it is...

Today Jon and I went to see Money Monster, the George Clooney/Julia Roberts vehicle. It looks interesting (I'm writing this before we go) and has gotten fair to middling reviews, with a 55 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Here's a guess, Jon will love it, and I will think it was ok. Hopefully I can get Jon to talk a bit about the movie, the cast and such as well as his recent interest in dubstep and el...

It is a pretty standard pub type place. Jon had chicken wings and fries. Then he had some of my onion rings. Then he had some of my burger (which was really good by the way). Then he didn't feel like recording on the way home because, well, because he had eaten way too much. Jon really liked the place, I did too. Jon gave it his standard score. We talked a bit about super hero movies in this one t...

five out of five, again

Five out of five

five out of five, again

everything got 5 out of 5

Probably five out of five

Spoilers, dude, I told you, spoilers

of course, five out of five

Why does Jon podcast?

Jon's class have been studying the idea of heroes and heroism which i think is a pretty cool theme. So, today they are all off at the most recent Hunger Games movie. Jon, however, and I quote 'has no interest in that'. I have no idea why, but he does not want to see the movie.

the same as it ever was

So Jon has decided to join the school's curling team. So yesterday he had his first practice. This seemed excellent fodder for a Jonathan Files report. We also talked about some other stuff on the way to his school bus stop this morning. Jon seems to be enjoying high school and he has met a lot of new people. His most recent movie idea is a religious epic!

4.5 from me.

On our way to Landon, through the USA

still five out of five
