4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 34 – The Strange History of Batwoman

Archaeon 31/05/2019

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

Archaeon 31/05/2019

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

Archaeon 29/05/2019

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

Archaeon 24/05/2019

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

Archaeon 22/05/2019

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 […]

4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 32 – Free Comic Book Day 2019

Archaeon 17/05/2019

The first Saturday of May has passed, and as is traditional the 4-Panel gang take a break from their usual shenanigans to pan for gold in the river of free comic books. So what nuggets (golden or otherwise), did Andrew and the back-from-overseas Rob find? Well, there’s The Avengers (also […]

Cinema Eclectica 205 – The Beast of Estonian Craggy Island

Archaeon 15/05/2019

Three misfits alone in the dark empty vastness of a cinema showing a Claire Denis movie, Aidan, Sarah and Graham gather to review the French maverick’s latest epic voyage, “High Life”. We realise it may sound tempting, but do not allow Juliette Binoche to show you her box. A full […]

S16E07 – Sweaty Jessop’s One Hour Photo

Archaeon 09/05/2019

After a slightly extended break the weirdly funny stain on the wallpaper of technology and science news podcasts returns to deface your walls. This week the Robs kick things off with a look at the rather disturbing trailer for the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie. In other news, Facebook finally […]

Cinema Eclectica 204 – The ADR Doggies Bite Back

Archaeon 08/05/2019

Liberated from Hull, Graham settles in with Rob for a preview of perhaps the strangest sports movie ever made – Gabriel Abrantes and Daniel Schmidt’s “Diamantino”, with its gene-tampering weirdness, lesbian drone pilots and floof bois. It’s not the last dog cameo on the show, but it’s surely the best. […]

4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 31 – Avengers Endgame SPOILER-CAST

Archaeon 06/05/2019

Join Andrew and Mick as they embark on an in-depth discussion about what may become the most successful movie of all time. That’s right. They’re getting into the nitty-gritty of Avengers: Endgame for a no-stone-unturned investigation of the good, the bad, and the Thanos, which means this episode is going […]
