I Was A Teenage Film Snob

This week, the whole gang is back and it's time to get festive. James, Nick and Maddie took on the challenge of creating their very own film festivals. Not to be outdone, a variety of podcasters, film fans and creators also submitted their own festivals as well.

In the second instalment of "Why You Should Watch...", James talks about one of his favourite childhood films, Josie and the Pussycats. Listen to him discuss why he thinks the film failed, but more importantly, why you should give it a chance.

Two thirds of the Pod Squad return to the show, with James and Nick very excited to talk about a TV show that has captured their imaginations: The Pitt. They discuss some movies they've watched, but mostly they fawn over Doctor Robby, Doctor Langdon and the rest of the Pittsburgh crew.

James is flying solo again this week, but he's lost weight, played some games and has some thoughts to share. This week he reviews the PS3 game Captain America: Super Solider, before sharing his thoughts on The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and the backlash it has received from critics.

This week, James is joined by an incredible guest. Cosplayer/make up artist/voice actor/screen actor Lauren Alenia swings by the show to talk about her upcoming role as Harley Quinn in director Aaron Bennett's highly anticipated sequel: Jokers Wild - Lazarus Rising. The two chat all things Harley, Horror, Video Games, Princess Peach and have a good old fashioned geek out.
