In our 33rd episode: We are discussing what it takes to be the American Idol. Whether the winner is always the best choice and is it the most talented person that always wins first place? Does winning even matter, and what are the differences over the years of the show. From changes in judges and formats and where are they know of the contestants. 

John does a deep dive investigation into the biggest scandal to hit the food industry since the Doritos Loco Taco upended the KFC Double Down. We support our Firemen, but will John continue to support their entrepreneuriale goals. It seems unlikely. He files this special report from location in line waiting for his sub.

We go through the legacy of one the most iconic artistic duo's of the recent generation.

In Episode 32 of Can You Confirm That?: We ask, why film adaptations of video games fail? Hollywood successfully uses lots of other forms of media as source material - novels, graphic novels, comic books, television shows but have yet to really crack the 'code' on the video game adaptation. What is the big mystery there and when will we see the change to a system that really works and gets the world talking about the SEGA Cinematic Universe?

Have you ever been out and about, on your way to the gym or out for a run with a soundtrack following you around.  Creating the perfect setting and ambiance for the actions taking place all around you?

Film and music in film specifically, can inspire us to live the way we see our heroes live, even briefly. How important has music become to our enjoyment of cinema, at home while watching a movie, we think the two are inseparable. This week we talk about which filmmakers use music the best and which songs created the most memorable scenes in film and which will last long after the movie has faded out of pop-culture.
