Modern Escapism

Don't be scared, but we're going there. To the darkest depths... of our purchase histories. Yes, we're talking about our dreaded backlogs, the books, films and games we've bought but never gotten round to. Humble Bundles have a lot to answer for.

Before all that, we discussed:

• The Super Mario Bros. Movie
• Succession Season 1
• Dragon Quest XI (again)
• Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil In Me

It's the big one. To cap off awards month we're doing the inadvisable, downright reckless, BEST MOVIE WINNER KNOCKOUT! We've all picked two movies that have won best picture at the Oscars and we're pitting them head to head to find out the greatest of all time.

And as Candy isn't around this week we've roped in our bestest podcasting buddy Planty, from 100 Things We Learned From Films. Go check him out, he's lovely people.

But before all that, we discussed:

• Cocaine Bear
• Hollow Knight
• Chernobyl
• DREDGE
• Pyongyang: A Journey In North Korea

Check out Planty's podcast: 100 Things we learned from film on Apple Podcasts

It's the Patreon's choice this week and they've unleashed us, as we're hosting the Modern Escapism Golden Razzies. Yes, we're getting it off our chests and ranting about the stuff we think is utter crap. It feels good

• Jeff Wayne's War Of The Worlds: The Immersive Experience
• Physical 100
• Ice Spiders (really, Candy?)
• Star Trek: Picard Season 3
• The Last Of Us Part II
• Gadget's Shopping trip to Regent Sounds in London

Gadget, Oodles, Candy and Biggie take the time to discuss the last part of this phenomenal series.

In this podcast we discuss episodes 7, 8 and 9 - 'Left Behind', 'When We Are In Need' and 'Look For The Light'. We also give our overall views of the show and speculate a little on what they would do next (without spoilers for the second game).

No game spoilers beyond what we’ve seen in the show are discussed, so if you haven’t played the game and are following along only through the TV show then this podcast is safe to listen to.

This week we're talking about those who were robbed of prestige, had victory snatched from them and who were overlooked for the biggest awards. Yes, it's the decisions awards bodies got wrong, and who we think should have got them.

But before all that, we discussed:

• Pamela, A Love Story
• Iron Widow
• Unforgotten

It's the most glittering event of the year as we come together to hand out another load of Biggies to those who've been overlooked and are deserving of a Golden Biggie.

It's chaos.

Before all that, though, we discuss:

• Studio 666
• Blasphemous
• The Consultant
• The Oscars 2023 Best Pictures
• Alan Partridge: Strategem
