  • Bioscope Brah - Amy Dirks Cars
    Hello Everybody! You know here at Bioscope Brasse HQ we've been threatening to evolve our show for awhile. Most of the time we don't follow through, but this time we actually went and evolved! Welcome to "Lammin' (chilling) with the Brasse" and who better to lam with than the awesome and absolutely hilarious Amy Dirks! We sit down with our new bra (who doesn't actually watch movies) and talk about all the things that matter. This includes but is not limited to: The mispronunciation of her real name and the origin of her Instagram name (8 "e's" were already taken). We chat about what inspires the material she puts out, how she's handling the fame that comes with releasing her social media content, the code-switching phenomena, as well as the challenges she faces with playing the characters she's created. We get some great advice on the power of affirmation (recognise your inner coolness!) and reminisce about the soapies our grandparents made us watch. We even manage to squeeze in career advice as Amy shares some behind the scenes secrets from the sets she's been on and tells us about her next steps. This is a movie podcast though so we find time to talk about Amy's favourite movie, Cars.The Cars world is weird, wacky and very "wooooow", so hop on in and buckle up while we take the scenic route to talk all about it!
    We had a ball of a time with our first guest, so come lam (hangout/chill) with us as we get to know Amy. Shot for listening!

  • Dune
    Bioscoo-HIC-ope Bra-HIC-aasse. Wow, can you now start an episode with hiccups? Bladdie unprofessional if you ask me. Anyway, welcome to your weekly dose of vitamin BBP. This episode starts at a rip-roaring rate with the Brasse discussing which corporate entity is worse, Coca-Cola or Pepsi. We also manage to have a discussion around the constructiveness of beauty while sharing some awareness on the dangers of Guy Fawkes. Does the world need Boondock Saints 3?, the Brasse and their Irish accents try to figure that out. A discussion is had on whether the director of Rebel Moon self-fornicates and a powerful tangent is had on the Honey/Golden Syrup movie franchise. We try to figure out whether My Cocaine (Michael Caine) is going to win an Oscar for playing an atom bomb and confuse Frank Opperman with one of the Oppenheimers. Abi misses one of our best ever ideas and our Will Ferrell dreams get shattered. We then finally get to review D(j)une. This episode is fuelled by energy drinks so we're tangenting hard and tangenting fast! Shot for listening!

  • No Time to Die
    The name's Brasse... Bioscope Brasse. Or should we say, Brasserers? That's right, we're here and we brought back-up. The crowd goes absolutely ape-shit as we welcome a special guest on this week's episode. We bring on the biggest Jame Bond fanspert (fan and expert), that's right we got Hadley! Not only that, but we even have a live audience! It wouldn't be a BBP episode without us talking about why Adult World has lots of toilet paper and as always we deliver. We analyse the Rust shooting incident and get pissed off at the tabloids and reactions to this incident and talk about how it could have been avoided. Hadley brings an intense focus on the real and important shit and we talk about the worst Chris (and second best Pratt) getting the Garfield gig. Don't worry we explain why he's still the worst. Some strong opinions are shared on Garfield casting which naturally segues into a discussion on Steve Harvey breaking promises. Keanu Reeves proves to be the best Reeves (and Keanu) and we do a quick check up on the health status of a couple of famous guys. We also have a quick chat about soapies. We get excited about Ana de Armas' latest project which may involve the Cape Philharmonic Ballerinas. A quick swear word audit is done before we start a deep dive discussion on all things Bond. We eventually review No Time To Die (the spoilers are hectic so watch out!). Shot for listening!

  • Candyman
    Yo Yo Yo whatsup world! It's time for another Bioscope Brasse Spooktacureffic horror movie review special! We managed to go on a rambling wrestling and pronunciation tangent right from the get go. We provide an update on the IATSE protest (treat them fairly damnit!!!) and then somehow find time to do a lesson on South African clicks. Abi starts sighing before Ross even starts explaining how the Mormons "soak" and the Brasse give some advice on the best music playlist to listen to while working. We get 17 minutes in before realising it's our Halloween episode. We discuss the joys of having to put your camera on for Zoom calls. The Brasse share their plans to sell vetkoek this Friday (with cheese and mince). We get hella worried as we hear that Gladiator 2 is apparently a thing. It's a Mario animated movie is announced and we look at the casting announcement reaction, spoiler alert, the worst Chris is Mario. Jody does that thing where he sits on the fence (figuratively) and we wonder whether doing an Italian accent is PC? We then summon up all our courage and review Candyman... Will we make it out alive? Shot for listening!

  • Free Guy
    In other news.... We have an episode out today. And it's a good one! Today we bring you not One Guy, not Two Guy, but Free Guy! This episode starts at the beginning and ends at the end, with a healthy dose of top tier pod in between. The Brasse reveal their vaccination status today while bragging about being funny. We take a slow stroll down memory lane while thinking about the first IMAX Theatre at the Waterfront (anyone else remember The Serengeti movie?). Jody coughs at least twice as we remember that the only reason we're doing this show is to get free movie tickets. We try valiantly to fight for all the short kings out there even though they always lie about their height. We theorise on the next steps for the Expendables franchise, which could either involve Family or Trevett. Jody somehow forces a Stephen King reference in while talking about Scream and Abi produces the shit out of this show. Disney's fanhood of the show is established and shared and Ross get's in a humble brag. Ross also explains why the beach needs to be paved. We protect the integrity of Sister Act (High School Musical can come at us!). There's some Bond chatter (actor not money you need to buy a house) and then we get into our Free Guy review. Shot for listening!

  • Kate
    Hey hey hey, the Brasse (and Abi) are here today! Mornings and afternoons peeps. The Brasse get right into it in this episode and remind people that this is a mens' rights show (kidding, or are we?). We reminisce about that 1026 lady (the Telkom time lady) and Jody's loneliness as a child. We get really hyped for the Matrix trailer and discuss the inevitable Matrix and Fast and Furious crossover (Smith Family). Ross shares our trade secrets and we talk about the uncanny resemblance between Danny Devito, Arnie and Tracy Morgan. We try to remember whether Jody liked Coming 2 America and have a heritage discussion about the klopse. Christopher Nolan visits Ross at work and declares his love for BBP while not forgetting how pissed off he was at WB. The inevitable Christopher Nolan and Fast and the Furious crossover is pitched. The Dude kicks cancer's ass man, that bra is ready to work! We remind you that Rambo and the Taliban were tight way back in the day. The Brasse also explain the origin of "Stock Fish" while comparing it to snoek. We do some Quick Reviews to keep ya'll up to date on what's Kwai and what's naaaai. We end off with an in depth review of the Netflix produced film Kate. We not evens lying, this is a fun episode. Shot for listening!

  • F9 Review
    One, Two... Testing One, Two. Move that speaker a bit closer there if you wanna get some surround sound brasse up in the hizzay! This week's show starts off with high aspirations and only gets worse from there. We cover a wide variety of news with some top notch tangent-sation. This includes determining the impact of temperature on testes, Japan's Olympic committee having no chill and we get the Zombie earworm in your brain. JP is bringing us a sequel to UP (or The Happening) and Ross gets tired of project management apps. Abi spends money that Ross allowed and we chat about Ross not giving Jody the movie he was supposed to give. Gremlins lead actor and Jeff Bezos are the same age and we compare Gizmo and Baby Yoda. We end off with a detailed discussion on the Faga. Is it still beloved or are they heading downhill fast? Only one way to find out ya'll! Shot for listening!

  • Jungle Cruise
    Sup yo! What's up with this weather hey? (Insert comment on how warm/cold it is). We start off our latest episode with a very special announcement. No spoilers, but it's exciting news. Ross then tells us what he's wearing (hint, it repels herpes). We get into the lawsuits being brought against Disney and get a definitive answer from huge ackman on whether he'll still be Wolverining it up. We break down the trailers of Venom 2 and Dune, have some Flash movie updates and end up spazzing on Michael Keaton. The Frasersance continues gathering momentum (yay!) and we have a scientific discussion on what would win in a battle of liquid v gas. Somehow the Snyder cut fans get in the news again (double you tea eff) and we end off by telling ya'll about how greedy Marvel and DC are. We then do a review on Disney's Jung-le Cruise. Will it be kwai, or naaai (nah)? Shot for listening!

Filled with news about old men (both alive and not), casting news for Indiana Jones 5 (River's not returning) and Jackie Chan's political ideals and the impact he has on women.
