Modern Escapism

Some say that the robots will rise up and take over the world. But others, correctly, love robots, because robots are cool as f**k and we should all be amazed by them.

This week, we're talking about our favourite robots in media across TV and film. 

But before all that, we discussed:

• The Suicide Squad
• Days Gone
• Sons Of Sam
• Utopia
• Death's Door

• The Grand Tour: Lochdown

It's all about family, or so the saying goes. Join Biggie and Gadget as they live life a quarter mile at a time.

Neither has seen any of the Fast & Furious films so they've volunteered to watch through all ten films in order and break them down for your listening pleasure. They're starting off with 2001's The Fast & The Furious. Hear them discuss the first part of this long running franchise and what they think about the cars, the story and everything in between.

Obviously, massive spoilers for the film

We were all kids once, and one of the best bits about being a kid was (and always will be) kid's TV.

As children of the 80s and 90s, we feel we had the best of it and this week we each bring one of our favourite shows to the table and bathe in the nostalgia (and the theme tunes).

But before all of that, we discussed:

• Masters Of The Universe
• Marvel Ultimate Alliance
• Returnal
• Johnny Mnemonic
• Control: Ultimate Edition

It's a question that's plagued gamers for all time; what is the greatest game ever?

Well, in our sheer arrogance and hubris, we've decided that it's up to us to decide that. Like we did with our Best Biscuits episode, we're taking it upon ourselves to pitch our favourite games against each other to decide, for the world, what the GOAT video game is.

But before all that, we discussed:

• The Walking Dead
• My Dad Wrote A Porno
• Fast & Furious 9
• Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart
• Skratch Bastid

Casting can make or break a film or TV show. And when it goes wrong, it can ruin everything. This week, we're talking about the worst examples of miscasting we've ever encountered. We also try to work out who we'd cast in their place.

But before that, we discussed:

• Superman (1978)
• Evoland
• Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness
• Drunken Master
• The Rats

It happens to the best of us. You've been popular for a while, but it's starting to wane, you need a new idea. You have the idea. It's brilliant, everyone is going to love it. It's just what you need to stay on top.

You're gonna jump a shark.

No? Just us? Well, this week, we're talking about the media that we feel jumped the shark. Videogames, films, TV shows that all did the stupidest stuff that made no sense whatsoever. Be warned, it's a ranty one.

But before all that, we discussed:

• Captain Phillips
• Summer Games Done Quick
• The Tomorrow War
• Super Magbot

We all grow up. Well... some of us grow up. But one thing we all do, is evolve... Most of us do...

Okay, what I'm trying to say is, there's plenty of media out there which we enjoyed (or disliked) once upon a time only for our opinion to change. We might have loved a certain film as a child only to rewatch it as an adult and realise it's awful, or we may have disregarded a style of music in our youth only to adore it as we age. This week we're talking about the things that we've changed our minds on, the media that for whatever reason, means something different to us at this point in our lives than it did in our youth.

But before all that, we discussed:

• Psycho Gore Man
• Scarlet Nexus
• Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance
• Disney Pixar's Luca
• Operation Tango

This week, there's gadget's and gizmos galore (and we don't mean our erstwhile editor!)

For every iPhone, there's a thousand N-Gages, for every Roomba, there's an Aibo. We're talking failed tech today, as we dive into some of the tech we've loved, hated, or thought were boneheaded, that ultimately never saw mainstream success.

But before all that, we discussed:

• Arrested Development
• Dragon Quest XI
• Bravely Default II
• Clarkson's Farm
• The Devil All The Time
•
