With four episodes in the bank and a month of exciting episodes behind us it's time to sit down, relax and preview the upcoming Justice League movie that has Ben & Colin so damn excited! The boys talk about what is getting them so excited about the film, as well as going over the four films we've looked at closely and ranking them in order. We also have questions as always so are you ready for...

It's time to get have a little faith as we move into the second episode of the second season of Third Watch with the episode called Faith! Just how robbed was Molly Price of a major acting nomination from this episode? Why is Yokas the overall star of Third Watch? How much of a douche is Bosco this episode when it comes to Nicole and why does that storyline suck? Why is #DirtyKid even brought up?...

It's another week of snip snip as we move into the third episode of the third season of Nip/Tuck with the episode called Derek, Alex and Gary! Ben straight away talks this episode up as 'classic Nip/Tuck' and finds some valid arguments to really sell it but does Nick agree? What about putting faces on butts? Inappropriate staring and ass touching? Bracelet parties? And even more sinister Matt? So...

It's that time of the week to follow the white rabbit down the speakers as we move into the 5th episode of the 1st season of Lost, White Rabbit! With our first ever Jack episode can Noah contain his excitement? Can we find ourselves ignoring the terrible Australian accents? Just why does Boone become the bigger star of this episode? And why does Ben tell you to go to the Honolulu Convention Centre...

This week Star Trek Discovery boldly goes where the franchise has only gone once before. Have you ever felt like you're living the same event over again? Have you every felt like you're watching the same episode you've already seen before? What about watching the same episode that you've already seen before involving a story where people have lived the same day over and over? If you haven't caught...

We return with another spoiler free review, and this time it's all about shirtless men, or Thor Ragnarok, which should tell you that Jamie is back to bring the feminine perspective to The Oz Network. Can it be that in his third solo film and fifth overall appearance Thor has finally become interesting? Can it be that a New Zealander finally tapped into Chris Hemsworth's hidden talent? Can Colin an...

It's been one hell of a ride but DC Month has to reach a conclusion and it is doing so right now as we move into the final film in the DCEU with the 2017 blockbuster hit Wonder Woman to get you excited in the lead up to Justice League! And as the first film that we have ever covered twice, what differences will we talk about from our episode earlier in the year? Why does Ben actually have a decent...

It's time to bring back the spoiler free movie review and get Ben on the mic by himself as he gets his disaster film fandom on air with a look at the latest end of the world movie (and not just because Gerard Butler is in it) called Geostorm! Why is Ben not happy that there aren't many cities being destroyed? And of the ones that are being destroyed, do we really care about them? Is Gerard Butler...

It's another day where Third Watch is on the agenda as we move into one hell of a season in season 2 and kick things off in style with the first episode of the second season The Lost. Just why is this episode and season so good? How much weight has Skipp Sudduth lost? Why is one of the funniest scenes in the shows history in this episode? Why is Carlos and the bird so awesome? What is the damn dea...

After being surgically removed from the couch last episode of Nip/Tuck it's time to get your gorilla on as we move into the 2nd episode of the third season called Kiki. Why does this episode finally feel like we're back to the show we love? Why is John Hensley finally showing his real acting chops? Is Liz getting a bit on the nose all of a sudden? How come Erica is actually liked by both Ben &...

We wrap up our month of random Halloween Movie and TV recaps with the 1991 cult classic Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. Much like in 1991, your hosts are scattered all over the place with their opinions. In a sequel to a movie at least one of our hosts has never seen, the great Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves ditch time travel to spend a movie going through the afterlife. We see real Bill and Ted, dead...

Another week of Survivor is in the books and we're back to recap the latest episode of Heroes vs Healers vs Hustlers with our bestie and Marquesas favourite John Carroll! John goes over all the moments why he is enjoying this season so much, from the characters and the gameplay and everything else in between. He also goes over all things to do with Cole, Cole and more Cole, as well as Chrissy, Col...

It's time to get yourself a box of tissues, a wheelchair and some miracles as we get into one hell of an emotional and powerful episode with the 4th season of the 1st season of Lost entitled Walkabout. As we get ourselves into a bit more of Locke's story, just why does Ben relate to him so much? Why is Randy such a jerk? Why is the guy in the travel agency such a jerk? Why does Noah feel like cryi...

It's time to get into our next DC Month recap as we turn a little evil, bring you some heathens and wave our arms around like Cara Delevingne as we look at the 2016 blockbuster as well as fanboy whipping victim Suicide Squad. After spending 4 hours defending the previous DC whipping victim, can Colin & Ben do the same for Suicide Squad? Should there be a Viola Davis category at the Oscars? Is...

In what is our most debated episode yet for Star Trek Discovery, Colin and Jamie  debate all the good and bad in episode 6 'Lethe'. In an episode that brings back another classic Star Trek character in Sarek, we argue whether the backstory between he and Burnham was warranted of an entire episode, or if it was just 45 minutes of rainbow road filler. While Jamie is finally warming up to Jason Isaac...

A special treat for you today in our continuing Third Watch coverage as we open up the vault from our parent show The Brink to bring you an interview Ben did with star of Third Watch and esteemed Hollywood actor Michael Beach from 2012. In this chat, Ben talks to him about his career that has lead to several iconic roles across TV & Film as as finding out everything there is to know about his...

It's time to bring you another interview from our parent show The Brink by opening the vault in our continued coverage of Third Watch as we bring our 2013 interview with actor Anthony Ruivivar to the surface for you to enjoy! As all our Third Watch fans would know him as Carlos, Anthony also talks about his then new role playing Batman as well as some other iconic roles across his career! It's ano...

Colin and Rossi return with another random Halloween themed episode, this time covering the 1985 cult classic Clue. Is it possible that a movie based on  aboard game can really be this good? With Christopher Lloyd as Professor Plum, Madeline Kahn as Mrs White, Michael McKean as Mr Green then the answer would be yes. You add to that the legendary Tim Curry n all his buttling goodness then this may...

After an epic two parts to get ourselves lost with Lost, it's time to get into the formulaic  structure a bit further with our next recap of Lost with the 1st season episode Tabula Rasa. With Kate now front and centre it's our first real taste of Australia with the flashbacks, but just how much trickery was done to achieve this? Why is Jack showing some even worse signs of being a bad leader? Wher...

We are back for another recap of Survivor, and after a wildly entertaining preview episode, we had to bring back Cook Islands contestant Billy Garcia to talk about this week's episode of Survivor HHH. The tribe swap is here and Billy gives his updated take on who is on the power position and who is on the bottom of this season. We also hear Billy's comparison of how the producer's pushed the theme...

It's week two of our 'DC Month' and it's time to maybe get the most topical on a film yet as we go over the 2016 blockbuster Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. In what is one of the most divisive films of all time, Ben & Colin act as the defence for the movie and find plenty of great things in this film to ensure our listeners that they are wrong for hating it. Even if that means Jenny is bac...

It's another week of Star Trek being the most (or least) progressive show on television, with F-Bombs, gay couples, political and social debates, and lots of Tardigrades, Tardigrades, Tardigrades. Colin and Jamie are back to recap the fifth episode of the season, where we finally get to see some characters in action that are not named Michael Burnham. While Saru, Stamets and Captain Lorca take the...
