It's been a while, hasn't it? Just dropping in to say we're still around and still on board with the podcast. Sadly, real life has been happening and so recording has been tricky. You will hear from us again soon, and we'll keep you posted on o
Named after one of Australia's most progressive Prime Ministers, The Whitlams are a band Thomas had definitely heard, but never fully paid attention to.  Sarah was the same until she was invited to see them live about five years ago. In this ep
Tom thinks they're the greatest Australian band and describes them as "audial bliss." Sarah had never heard of them and describes them as "an assault on the senses." We're talking 'This is Serious, Mum', the experimental, post-modern, electroni
We read another book! This week, Thomas and Sarah talk about, 'Surely You're Joking Mr Feynman', the memoir of the Nobel prize winning physicist who worked on the Manhattan project and the committee to investigate the Challenger disaster. He wa
It's our first episode on books, and we're discussing one of Sarah's favourite reads, S.E. Hinton's 'The Outsiders.'  Tom couldn't put it down, and Sarah is still convinced she could save Dallas Winston. Conversation includes the history of you
It's Sarah's first pick for the second season, and we are diving back into Baz Luhrmann's filmography to watch his debut feature, 'Strictly Ballroom.' In this episode, Sarah goes full English teacher mode, Tom admits he "kinda liked it", and th
In this episode, Sarah rectifies a great travesty in her film watching history, as she finally sees the Australian classic, 'The Castle', for the first time. She and Tom dive into the history of Working Dog productions and the work of Rob Sitch
We're back, baby! Our second season kicks off with Australian legendary filmmaker's latest release, 'Elvis'. In this episode, we dive into the Australian films that have actually made money,  the mistakes musical biopics make, and whether Tom H
For the Season 1 finale, Tom and Sarah look back at the origins of the podcast, discuss what's coming next, and do a deep dive into the list of the highest grossing films of all time. Conversation includes our mutual disinterest in Lord of the
This week, Thomas and Sarah listened to one of Sarah's coming of age albums - Sumo by The Superjesus. Conversation includes deep dives into Triple J's Hottest 100, making mixtapes, and whether the name of the band is sacreligious. Triple J Hott
After a few weeks of talking movies, Sarah and Tom are now sharing music for the first time. In this week's episode, Tom and Sarah listened to Since I Left You by Australian band The Avalanches, one of Tom's favourite albums that Sarah had neve
Breaking our formula this week and talking Top Gun! Tom and Sarah rewatched the original classic, and headed to the cinema to see the sequel (though not in that order.) Tom loves planes and Sarah loves men talking about their feelings, so turns
This week's episode is one Sarah has been planning since the beginning. You see, Thomas has no experience of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the last superhero movie he saw was X-Men 2. So, of course we had to dive into the movie that change
This week's episode features a movie it's likely you haven't heard of, but we highly reccommend you watch before you listen. Jerome Bixby's  "The Man from Earth" is a thoughtful, high concept science fiction film set entirely in one living room
It's Sarah's choice this week, and she's chosen the 1995 romantic drama Before Sunrise. Shot in Vienna, this Richard Linklater classic is set over one night in Vienna. While Tom is a seasoned traveller, Sarah has rarely been outside the country
This week Tom is in charge so of course the film is beyond obscure. In this episode we explore Groove, a film staged around a warehouse party in San Francisco around the late 90’s. For Tom it was a large influence on his adolescence and would b
Despite only seeing this film about five years ago, it is one of Sarah's absolute favourites, combining her love of romantic comedies and family dramas. Tom had not only never seen this movie before, he didn't even know what the boombox moment
In our first episode, Tom and Sarah watch Pulp Fiction, a movie Tom first saw when he was 12, and Sarah had never seen and mostly knows from parodies. In this episode, they talk about going to Blockbuster with their mums, the depiction of drugs
