Monday Aug 29, 2022
Monday Aug 29, 2022
This week we tackle Scarlett Johansson's solo outing in the MCU. We anger the Russians, Disney, AND Scientology (we like to play with fire), discover the secret Bronte references and try to work out where this mysterious hospital is that Black Widow's been so traumatised about.

Wednesday Jul 27, 2022
Wednesday Jul 27, 2022
We return after a slightly lengthy break! This week Paul & Kayleigh discuss Loki including the philosophical influences, whether Richard E Grant would make a good Doctor Who, and what on Earth does He Who Remains actually do in that office?!

On this episode, Paul and Kayleigh discuss the many failings of Sam and Bucky's adventures. Is John Walker meant to be likeable or hateful? Are the baddies terrorists or do they have a point? Why is Sharon Carter there at all (and has she now officially kissed her own uncle?)? We try to answer all these questions because the writers just didn't manage to.

Today we have an unusually long episode because there's just SO MUCH to unpack in this spectacular series. We discuss the evolution of the American sitcom, the process of grief, Kathryn Hahn's wink, conspiracy theories, fictional pregnancies, genre-bending, and 1990s cynicism. Amongst other things.

Sunday May 22, 2022
Sunday May 22, 2022
For our fiftieth (!!!) full-length episode, we unfortunately have to delve into one of the biggest flops of the MCU. We go on a massive tangent about The Mummy, question Ana Helstrom's hairdo, complain about the lack of sensitivity around mental health and list a billion reasons why this show failed so miserably.

This week, Kayleigh and Paul finally come to the end of the marathon that is Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the big twist of the finale is that we actually enjoyed it! We make favourable comparisons with Doctor Who, compare TV shows that have concluded well, and wonder if the producers could ever bring themselves to get rid of Coulson.

Runaways: Season 3: ”I have two snooker balls in my cheeks”
Monday May 02, 2022
Monday May 02, 2022
This week Paul and Kayleigh conclude their thoughts on Runaways. We go crazy for the presence of Liz Hurley and her bountiful bosom, we wonder why an evil future person would make a "to-do" list, and also try to imagine what it would be like for your unborn baby to start glowing inside you.

Wednesday Apr 06, 2022
Wednesday Apr 06, 2022
This week, Kayleigh and Paul enter Phase 4 with our return to the Spiderverse. We wonder what the hell kind of school trip this is meant to be, create our own Daily Bugle spin-off series and reminisce about our own school days.

Sunday Mar 27, 2022
This week Kayleigh and Paul say farewell to the last of all the Netflix series. We bemoan the lack of shades of grey in the villain, create our own sitcom spin-off involving Hogarth and the Raft, and try to work out the intricacies of empathic abilities (and fail miserably).

Sunday Mar 13, 2022
Sunday Mar 13, 2022
In this feature-length episode, Kayleigh and Paul reach.....The Big One. We analyse the political and psychological effects of killing half of the universe, criticise Hawkeye's new haircut, work out who all the guests are at a certain character's funeral, and wax lyrical about that final battle.
Spoilers abound so beware if you have yet to watch the movie!
