Emma, our personal Therapist and Kate, our regular guest, both of which are part of the Rage Whale family (and in some of our more listened to episodes) join us to celebrate our 100th episode and the end of Season 1. Emma provides us with a Friendship Quiz which is lots of fun and gives us plenty to discuss. Kev also has a Quiz on the stats and figures from the podcast itself, followed by a movie quiz on actors. This was an enjoyable and loose conversation where we just enjoyed each other's company. Thanks for sticking with us...onwards to Season 2...

We talk through our photoshoot day. The first time we've seen each other in person for many years. We have incredible photographer and previous guest (Ep 91) Daniel Pitts meet us in Waterloo to start our day taking group photos throughout London. Kev surprises the gang with Merch, our logo on some t-shirts and hoodies which we end up modelling. Our first guest and biggest fan Gareth joins us to help and we meet other friends later in the day, including previous guest (Ep 38) Shed/Sara for a heavy evening of drinks in Camden. This was such a fun day just getting see see each other properly, joke around and go play Crazy Golf at Lane 7 in Victoria.

Today we discuss the new trailers we have seen recently such as Predator: Badlands, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Weapons, Now You See Me: Now You Don' t and The new A24 movie starring The Rock called The Smashing Machine which looks like his first serious role that could be award worthy. We also discuss movies and series from our childhood we would love to see rebooted with the same cast which brings us to Ryan Cooglers announcement that he is bringing back The X-Files which we are excited about. We end by discussing Sinners, the new movie Ryan Coogler wrote and directed starring Michael B Jordan, Jack O'Conell and Hailee Steinfeld.

Kev and Drew interview Simeon Atkins who is the host of the educational and entertaining podcast 'The Meaning of Men'. The intro explains the thought process about what the podcast is about then we discuss some of the subjects that has come up during his many guest interviews of experts in different fields all relevant to the subject of men. We found this conversation very engaging and we would have loved to talk for much longer so we hope there will be a second part to this conversation and perhaps we have a further guest to mix the opinions and discourse up even more. Simeon has a great outlook on life and his podcast is exploring many interesting avenues and can really open your mind to new thought processes, we very much recommend you take a listen.

Kev & Drew discuss the hot topic this week with the surprising but well deserved success of the new Marvels movie. This is a change in tone for the studio and we feel this has paid off as we can't stop thinking about it. Marvel should be simple and cinematic with lots of CGI, this feels like an indie film with practical effects and dramatic actors with deep character performances that make you care about all the individuals. It is hilarious at times without being silly and emotional through relatable trauma. This is truly a new direction that we hope will continue to grow.

Kev & Drew do an old school Pod episode talking about what they have watched recently and recommendations. We discuss the stunt performers finally being appreciated at the Oscars before talking about classic moves we watched recently, Netflix documentaries that show the dark side of humanity and mention a little about Black Mirror Season 7 without spoilers.

Where do we start, which level, reality or dreams? Kev and Drew try to get to grips with the notoriously confusing movie from the master of time, ambiguity and existentialism. This movie from 2010 was marked as one of the first times that Blockbusters stopped placating its audience as Nolan went for the cerebral approach trusting the audience would engage and enjoy the respect he gave us offering us the ability to debate the plot, themes and of course that frustrating ending. What is your opinion? Listen to hear ours and Drews left field thoughts which makes even more sense.

Kate selected the subject of todays Deep Dive, one if the living greats. A prolific and respected man in the movie industry. We try to delve into his personal life with little information before discussing his influences, style and impressive back catalogue. We also discuss his next exciting project.
