Welcome to Waxing the Porpoise, the podcast that dives deep into the unexplored depths of cinema and occasionally  the unexplained.

This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve plunge headfirst into the dystopian depths of acclaimed director Alfonso Cuarón's cinematic masterpiece from 2006, Children of Men - a film that explores themes of hope, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Join us as we discuss another Clive Owen led intrigue laden banger, this time supported by Michael Caine's burnt out John Lennon-styled hippie pot grower activist, wax philosophic about faith and chance in perpetually grey London, and finally get to the gut punch that is the conclusion of the film tempered in redemption.

The porpoises, midnight companions and keen observers, traverse a landscape where women have become infertile and the world has fallen into depravity and despair - perhaps a modern day parable about just how fragile society really is.  In a world gone mad and set aflame, the porpoises might just be the only ones keeping their cool.

It's called a leap of faith Jack.

Let's wax this overcast porpoise.
