Black Mirror Season 4 Episodes 4, 5 and 6
January 28, 2018 21:02 - 59 minutes - 54.8 MBWe're back to talk/argue about the last 3 episodes of the excellent Black Mirror Season 4! After our differing opinions on the first 3 episodes we find some common ground with the final few episodes but there are still quite a few things we disagree on. We also get progressively more drunk as the episode goes on...we'll let you decide if that's a good thing or not...enjoy.

Star Wars The Last Jedi
December 18, 2017 00:21 - 1 hour - 68.6 MBWe have seen The Last Jedi...and it's amazing. It fully lives up to the hype. It's a rollercoaster of emotion with more twists than any other Star Wars film. However, it isn't without it's faults a few of which are really silly but if you want budget Porg impressions then this is the podcast for you!

December 14, 2017 01:31 - 1 hour - 68.9 MBIt's just Len and John this week and we enjoyed the episode but there were still glaring flaws and shocking decisions. We have a lot of fun with it though so please join us as we discuss one of the most divisive moments of the show to date!

Walking Dead Season 8 - Time For After
December 06, 2017 00:43 - 59 minutes - 54.2 MBOk so we are one episode away from the mid-season finale, did this episode do enough to excite us for next week? The answer is...not really as we spent most of the episode focusing on a minor character in Eugene! But we did find some parts of it to be very important in setting up what we hope to be the finale of All Out War! We are almost there guys, join us to celebrate and mostly complain/have fun with another episode of The Walking Dead. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fa...
Walking Dead Season 8 - The King, The Widow and Rick
November 28, 2017 23:37 - 1 hour - 67 MBOk so this is probably the worst episode of the season so far which is a shame. It feels like a break from the action and the return of Negan which we got last week to quite good effect. Don't worry though we have a lot of fun with this episode so check it out if you fancy a laugh!

Justice League
November 24, 2017 09:47 - 48 minutes - 44.5 MBEver since Marvels Avengers, DC have been playing catch up and with most of their superhero films getting critically panned, did this movie do enough to change that? The answer is yes and no...We didn't love the film and we didn't hate it either. DC have done enough with their characters to warrant this franchise continuing. We have a lot of fun reviewing this film and even have a DC related quiz at the end with hilarious results, hope you enjoy it! Support this podcast at — https://redcirc...
Walking Dead Season 8 - The Big Scary U
November 21, 2017 23:01 - 1 hour - 62.4 MBAfter last weeks strong episode this week is slightly confusing. We don't know what to make of it, we love certain parts and dislike others. Negan is really allowed to shine this episode and surprisingly so is Father Gabriel! John says he enjoyed it to everyones surprise and weirdly this week Len goes on a rant!

Stranger Things Season 2 Chapters 7, 8 and 9 Plus Predictions!
November 16, 2017 23:37 - 1 hour - 93.9 MBThis season of Stranger Things has been amazing and has expanded excellently on the first. There were a few problems (mainly chapter 7) but we don't care, we loved our return to Hawkins. In this episode John admits he likes something, Lucy our very own Will Byers returns from the Upside Down and we all play a game...No not Dragons Lair!

The Walking Dead Season 8 - Some Guy
November 14, 2017 23:45 - 1 hour - 64.4 MBWe are so much happier with this episode! Focusing on Ezekiel and his group was a great idea and the devastation to our group of heroes led us to really feeling that the stakes were raised once again. There are still some negative points but overall we are impressed.

Stranger Things Season 2 Chapters 4, 5 and 6
November 09, 2017 21:44 - 1 hour - 57.1 MBThis 3 chapter run of Stranger Things season 2 is excellent and we are having so much fun watching it. We were worried that this second season would never be able to live up to the first but we can safely say that it is beautifully poised going into the final 3 episodes. Like a gaggle of Demogorgans we are here to flip it upside down and delve deep into this excellent show!

The Walking Dead Season 8 - The Damned
November 01, 2017 23:54 - 59 minutes - 54.9 MBWell what do we make of that episode? There were a lot of problems even though there are a few really strong elements. All Out War is going ahead in a very confusing way and we get the return on a long lost character! We tear into it, even without John here!

Game Of Thrones Season 7 - Beyond The Wall
October 11, 2017 11:36 - 1 hour - 66.1 MBThis episode is traditionally the big episode of the season and in that respect it didn't disappoint. The action was great and it was another spectacle that we can't believe is in a TV show, however, when you look closer you see there are quite a few plot holes. As usual we come at this episode with a wealth of book knowledge and some crazy theories.

It was a return to form for the more traditional style of episode that this show has become so well known for. Lot's of important conversations and manoeuvring on a low key scale compared to the epic battle of last week.

October 10, 2017 23:05 - 58 minutes - 53.7 MBThis episode was our first ever podcast where we covered Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 4 titled The Spoils of War. We loved the episode and felt that we had never seen anything like it on the small screen before. Oh and we were calling ourselves something different back then as this was before we had an official name. Enjoy!
