Gael Boys

On the this episode, the boys use the collapse of American life to talk about one of their favorite movies, Mary Harron's 'American Psycho.' Based on the novel by Bret Easton Ellis and the prefect movie for our current moment. As well as the previous moment and the future one. Also talk of the Epstein files, the future of America's popcorn politicians, Wall Street psychopathy and how satire is now treated as total sincerity. 

In this episode, the boys give the full episode treatment to one of the best films of 2024, Luca Guadagnino's 'Queer.' Based on the book by William S. Burroughs and the prefect movie for the LGBTQ+ community in 2025. In that everything is hopeless and doomed. Also talk of mayhem in the Middle East, America's future of useless leaders, the future of gay cinema and how sometimes the art is impossible to separate from the artist. 

In this episode the boys finish off their BioShock deep dive with 2013's BioShock Infinite. A phenomenal first person shooter with a clunky yet ambitious story. The have some disagreements on this one. Also Liam reviews Jake Tapper's Biden book, Trump going full boomer, how fucked up early 20th century America was and reveling in the simple joy of shooting everything that moves.

In the first Liamless (why he's not here will be revealed in the future) episode of the show, Jordan is joined by returning guest John to talk about the works of Alan Moore and the shitty adaption of one of his best works The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

In this special crossover episode the boys are joined by the wonderful Remember Shuffle podcast to discuss the two Joel Schumacher Batman Movies, Batman Forever/ Batman and Robin. We discuss where they fit into the overall history of comic book movies, why they're as maligned as they are and opine for the good old days when comic book movies didn't look like total ass.

In this episode, the boys keep on their video game adventures, this time to talk about the Minecraft movie that's taking cinemas and the internet by storm. And what it means for the continued slopification of culture. Also talk of the Pope's recent passing, the death of 4Chan, Right Wing insecurity and try to figure out why the hell Jack Black keeps singing in this movie.

In this episode the boys dip back into the world of video games for a retrospective on the Bioshock series. Starting with Bioshock 1 & 2 The first game, an art-house horror dressed up like a Triple-A FPS and it's flawed but fun enough sequel. Also talk of Trump's tariff insanity, what makes a sequel good or bad, our thoughts on gooners and how capitalism will always turn into fascism.  

In the episode, guest John returns to the show to chat with the boys about 'Captain America: Brave New World.' The newest MCU slice of pig slop and how it spells a bad omen for everything going forward. Also talk of Ukraine, MAGA's further decent into nihilism, early Leo DiCaprio star vehicles and how films are not made anymore so much as they are assembled from broken pieces.

In this episode, the boys go back to the world of Capeshit to discuss Marvel's post Avengers: Endgame run of films. The bad, the ugly and the one or two good nuggets hidden in this pile of trash. Also talk of how COVID ruined filmmaking, why homework shouldn't been mandatory to watch CGI monsters fighting each other, and how over saturation and quantity over quality is the bane of all franchises. 

In this episode, the boys go back to the art-house to talk about Nosferatu. The 1922 film, the 1979 film, the recent 2024 film and 2000s 'Shadow of the Vampire'. Getting into the legacy of the character, the way time changes our approach to art and the gory details of being a vampire. Also talk of the future of Gaza, America's self destruction, Italian exploitation films and the interesting history of Germany's silent films and their impact.
