Our Mission

To aid and abet your procrastination, to help you get away from the doldrums of the real world for a couple hours and help you seek out new entertainment to enjoy. 

--------------------


Modern Escapism is split into four sections.

 

1. Biggie's Breaking News

Each week we discuss the latest news in pop culture across movies, tv, gaming and more.

 

2. Reviews

Each week we bring some kind of media we've been consuming to review, dissect and discuss. This varies across all kinds of things from TV, films, games, books, music, wrestling, comics, podcasts and everything in between. Our aim is to hopefully recommend (or help you avoid) things out there that you can consume yourself.

 

3. Listener Feedback. 

Our listeners are the most important thing about our podcast. Without you, we wouldn't be here and we thank every single of you that listens. This is why each week we encourage our listeners to write in and get involved with our main topic, offering up their take on what we're discussing.


4. What's Up In Candyland

The inner workings of Candys mind are a thing that no one person has been able to work out. Each week Candy gets to release to those thoughts in a fun segment where she brings something weird and wonderful to us. to educate, horrify or laugh at. Her minds has no limits.

Last Action Hero is a 1993 American fantasy action comedy film directed and produced by John McTiernan and co-written by Shane Black and David Arnott. It is a satire of the action genre and associated clichés, containing several parodies of action films in the form of films within the film. The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Jack Slater, a Los Angeles police detective within the Jack Slater action film franchise, while Austin O'Brien co-stars as Danny Madigan, a boy magically transported into the Slater universe, and Charles Dance as Mr. Benedict, a ruthless assassin from the Slater universe who escapes to the real world. Schwarzenegger also served as the film's executive producer and plays himself as the actor portraying Jack Slater.
