Across the Pond with Rich & Soph

Funday Friday - we chat video games, taking you way back to the retro Nintendo with Mario right up to the latest PS5.... Rich digs deep with some old classic football games & Soph reminisces about Doom on the PC!!  We do a weekly round up as always from across the pond - from whats happened in our week & whats happened in the news. Then this weeks series review is Riviera. We have touched on it before but we go into detail giving it a solid 10/10....

Happy Valentine's Day.... We are back for Serious Sunday & as its Valentine's Day today we thought we would have a debate - is it a con....?? Soph is an old romantic all for Valentine's Day where as Rich is a bah humbug & refuses to acknowledge it.  Where do you guys stand - are you showing the love to your significant other or are you treating it just the same as every other day?? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.  Showing all our followers love & not just cause it's Valentine's, we appreciate you 365....

This week we review Malcolm & Marie on Netflix.... A night in the life of a couple - he is a film producer who has just put out his first movie & won an award. She is an actress who he didn't cast or thank in his speech!! The film shows an insight to their relationship & the roller coaster ups & downs it takes in one night.  This movie is very well done & you are pulled into their world & go on the journey love & hate with them.  We give it a solid 9/10 :) As always let us know in the comments what you think of it

We are back for Funday Friday & today we discuss men verse women, who does it better.... Do gender roles still exist? Should they? Who's the better cook? We ask all these questions & more that spark for a good old debate!!  Also we let you know whats been happening in the week, as well as a news update.  This weeks series up for review is Money Heist on Netflix - both of us absolutely LOVED this show  it gets top marks 10/10 (even if Rich did want to give it 11/10)....  

Serious Sunday & we are fired up about this topic.... Black history month but only in the USA, the UK doesn't have theirs till October!! Why, well you will have to tune in & watch to find out. We discuss black history & how it isn't included enough (if at all in the UK) in the education curriculum. Also how racism plays a big part in black history past & present....  If anyone has any comments, facts or questions on this subject, as always please leave them in the comments. Lets keep this conversation going as it is such an important one to have....

This week we watched The Vanished over on Netflix.... It's the story of a family vacation that goes wrong as a little girl goes missing. Her parents take it upon themselves & will stop at nothing to try & find her.... To say there is a plot twist at the end is an understatement!!  Rich was a fan, Soph not so much but it was the plot twist that kept her interest. We give it a solid 6/10. Give it a watch & let us know what you think....  

Catch our movie reviews on Switch Radio 107.5fm, DAB & online between 12-2pm every Saturday

Funday Friday people & we are talking board games - old, new, past, present, ones we like, ones we don't.... You name it, it's there!! Taking you back to the likes of Hungry Hippo's & The Game of Life. Not forgetting good old Monopoly where Soph was always the dog & Rich liked to be the boot LOL.  We include our weekly news update discussing the White House, Sir Tom Moore & Cicely Tyson.  This weeks series review is Power Book II & to be honest this was an on the spot choice as we didn't add it into the plan HAHAHAHA. But we give you our honest opinion & it gets a solid 7/10 :)

Today on Serious Sunday we wrap up our 3 parter on home schooling, education & lockdown. We have heard from a teachers point of view so today we talk to 11 year old Harry, who tells us what it is like to have schooling at home from a pupils stand point. Please bare with us as we had a little technical difficulty in the beginning but it is worth it & Harry was amazing.  Thank you for all the continued support with our show, we truly appreciate you all

What's your go to drink, your fav alcoholic beverage?? 

We chat all things alcohol; beer, spirits, cocktails & more. Everything from what type of drunk you are to your hangover food....

This choice of topic was sparked by our Instagram live after party on Tuesday when we had a few scoops & were some what tipsy LOL.

We have decided that after receiving feedback we will do an Instagram live once a month as it was so much fun & what you guys have asked for :)

As well as this we had our weekly round up from both sides of the pond!!

If you have Instagram & don't already, feel free to follow us:-

This review is on Ava which is available on Netflix....

It's an action packed shoot me up, but not your usual "manly" type. It's about a female assassin who does what it takes to survive.

It has a host of stars; Colin Farrell, Jessica Chastain, John Malkovich & music legend Common to name a few.

It's an easy watch, perfect for a Saturday night with a glass of wine on the sofa. We rate it a 7.5/10...... It's good, we just wanted a little more meat on the bone & we were left a bit miffed at the end.
