Modern Escapism

We were all young once, with dreams of what we wanted to do when we grew up. Well this week, we've brought in DeadbeatpunK from WTFDYW? to talk about what we wanted to be when we grew up. 

Turns out, none of us have grown up.

Before all that, we discussed:

• Elden Ring
• Martha Is Dead
• Wasteland 3
• Eddie Izzard: Believe Me: A Memoir of Love, Death and Jazz Chickens
• The Natural History Museum

You can find WTFDYW? every Monday wherever podcasts are available, or at http://youcunts.co.uk/

This week we're joined by the titans of movie podcasting, the Sequelisers! Jack Chambers and Tim Maytom take a little break from their constant brilliance to join us for much chat, many japes and a lot of laughs.

As is tradition, the guest has picked the subject, so this week we're talking about film directors who've made an impact but have LESS THAN 5 FILMS to their name. It was a tricky one to nail down, but we all came up with some EXCELLENT examples.

Before all that, though, we discussed:

• Arcane
• Yellowjackets
• August 32nd On Earth
• Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart
• The Father
• Midnight Asia

There are some things out there which we just cannot betide. Genres, concepts and styles which just grind on our absolute last nerve. Things which deserve nothing less than a cowgun to the head.

This week we're slaughtering the things we despise. Things which we hate with a passion, from music, to videogames, to tropes and bad business practices. It's ranty.

But before that, we discussed:

• Marvel's Eternals
• The Matrix Resurrected 
• Hitman 2
• Chernobylite
• Persona 5 Royal
