  • Gallipoli with Jennifer Kent
    Mar 29 2026
    This week, we are honored to welcome Australian filmmaker Jennifer Kent to the podcast as we discuss Peter Weir's devastating classic Gallipoli. In addition to bringing much needed context on the history of Australian cinema, this episode also delves into the significance of the Gallipoli Campaign in the Aussie national consciousness, the undersung career of actor Mark Lee, and the genius of Peter Weir's approach to telling this story. Plus, we get to ask Jennifer about her role in Babe: Pig in the City AND we ask her to tell her buddy Justin Kurzel how much Ben loves his Assassin's Creed movie.

  • The Last Wave with BenDavid Grabinski
    Mar 22 2026
    Peter Weir's follow up to Picnic at Hanging Rock - 1978's The Last Wave - deals with similar themes, with colonialism butting against the wild mysticism of Australia's land and people. However, this time...it's WET AS HELL. BenDavid Grabinski - the filmmaker behind the upcoming Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice - joins us to talk about this beguiling film, apocalyptic thinking, Richard Chamberlain's status as the king of TV miniseries, and Tom Shadyac's Dragonfly, weirdly enough.

I like the banter and in depth analysis of directors filmographies. I usually learn something new about a director in every episode. I'd recommend this show to any film buff with a sense of humor.

Fun film podcast

Funny, insightful, and informative. Do they carry on sometimes? Yep. You're either giggling with them or googling something to try and keep up. Now come on guys its time to do a Cronenberg retrospective!

are there really two blowhards who didn't like hilarious and sharp ballyhoo? top tier pod with top tier guests.

decade of dreams

And inside talk. Useless podcast irritation. When they get to the movie in question, remarks are “wasn’t it great?” Generally uninformative.

Lots of giggling
