The uncontainable power of our sister show 4-Panel rises up and consumes us again as Mick and Andrew join Aidan to discuss “X-Men: Dark Phoenix”. It’s the last in a franchise that’s lasted as long as two MCUs, but what’s the endgame like? Of course, before we watched films with […]

4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 36 – Godzilla: The Ultimate Magical Girl
With everything from plushies to video games under its giant belt, Godzilla is arguably one of the most profitable and marketable monsters on the planet, and with a new movie in cinemas (which we talk about as well), we though it was time for a look at the comic-book and […]
Surprise Lions Cause Khaki Pants – Literary Loitering 104
The goat herders of cultural anarchy return with another sack full of interesting and sometimes strange tidings from the arts world, and kicking things off this week is the shocking news that Grr Martin has allegedly finished a book – something that he strenuously denies. In other news, the musician […]
4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 35 – Dark Phoenix: Mad Jeans And Mutant Men
Get the headache tablets and the X-Men crazy wall ready because the Dark Phoenix movie is out soon, so we thought it would be a good idea to look back over the very convoluted history of the cosmic entity. With a full wardrobe of sashes, shawls, capes, children from other […]
Cinema Eclectica 208 – Fritz Lang’s Mannequin
The show is turned upside down again this week, with three big new releases in the second half and an archive gem in the first – Sergio Martino’s Poe-meets-giallo cult classic “Your Vice is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key”, the title of which is but the […]
4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 34 – The Strange History of Batwoman
The Batwoman TV series is on the horizon, so Andrew, Mick and Rob thought it would be interesting to explore the character’s rather strange history, and in order to do that we have to go back to the original Batwoman, which isn’t the current Batwoman. It was mainly Andrew’s idea. […]
S16E08 – Cronenberging Your Tamagotchi
After establishing our status as award-winning swimmers (25 metres), The Geek Show returns for another dip in the shallower end of science and technology news, and kicking things off this week is the backlash against the poorly-written final season of Game of Thrones, which has culminated in a petition for […]
Cinema Eclectica 207 – Women Be Scaring
After looking at the winners and one big loser from Cannes 2019, it’s time for Eclectica to return to its B-sides series where we look back at recent films that we weren’t able to cover at the time of their release, and this week are “Fighting With My Family”, “Birds […]
4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 33 – Spider-Man And His Amazingly Weird Villains
Spider-Man: Far From Home is due out in cinemas very soon, and audiences will finally get to see Jake Gyllenhaal’s Mysterio in all his goldfish bowl glory, but that got Andrew, Mick and Rob thinking about the web-slinger’s vast cavalcade of criminals. So this week we’re ditching the Electros, Scorpions […]
Cinema Eclectica 206 – Assiety of Sassassins
It’s time for “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” or Wick in a Box or whatever it’s called, and before Aidan and Graham adjudicate the ultra-violence like a glove-carrying Asia Kate Dillon, we’ve got a Question of the Week where we ask for your favourite threequels. On the other side […]
