  • STT Rewind - Episode 22
    In the 22nd episode of STT Rewind, host and co-editor of Set The Tape dot com, Owen Hughes is joined by writer Steve Norman to run through the worlds of fllm, TV, music and games. Part 1 picks up where Spooktober left off and turns into Noirvember on the website. Part two whizzes through some TV chat about dark reboots in light of Sabrina, before Matt Latham looks at the role of a promoter in his Cassette Tape. The final 10 minutes of the podcast becomes something of a self help guide as Steve talks video game addiction and Football Manager.

  • STT Rewind: Episode 21
    Tony Black and Steve Norman run this week's episode of STT: Rewind to talk film festivals - covering brand new movie premieres at London, Vancouver, Brooklyn and… err, Bolton - and Damien Chazelle’s First Man. Were the Moon landings real? (Of course, but that's not the point.) Speaking of space, part two heads to TV with the brand new Star Wars universe animated series Resistance and a littler closer to home with Doctor Who back on our screens. Matt Latham's got a birthday surprise in store for Cassette Tape before freeplay previews the Destination Star Trek event and whether Steve is into geek conventions. You can guess the answer to that.

  • STT Rewind: Episode 20
    We kick things off this week with the film section and following our list of the top 100 films on horror streaming service Shudder, as well as an upcoming list of the must-see films on Filmstruck, we pick out some of the places we turn to when we want to stream movies. In part two, the TV licence comes under the microscope and we briefly look over BBC's record breaking drama series Bodyguard. Matt Latham promises not to change his name for a music round up in another edition of Cassette Tape before freeplay discusses crossover comics, including Star Trek vs Transformers. Yes, you read that right.

  • STT: Rewind: Episode 14
    Our last two episodes both came out a day late, so as recompense, here's our fourteenth episode a day early! Hosts Owen Hughes and Steve Norman switch things around slightly to push our TV section to the forefront to assess the ratings war - does it really matter which channel is showing the World Cup? Would you rather watch ITV or BBC's coverage of England in the international football tournament? In part two, we return to film for a nose at the US box office figures for Ant-Man and the Wasp and whether its lower than expected return should be cause for concern ahead of Captain Marvel - and female led superhero films in general. Matt Latham's Cassette Tape asks when is a gig not a gig, before Freeplay goes podcast crazy, podcast mad. Thanks for listening. We'll be back again in a fortnight.

  • STT Rewind: Episode 13

    Thanks for downloading another episode of STT Rewind. Your reward is 30 minutes of Owen Hughes and Steve Norman from SetTheTape.com talking film, TV and football. This week the duo chat Robert Zemeckis Oscar bait and gaming the system, the top tele of 2018 so far, and the fact that football's finally coming home - or is it? That's rhetorical, you don't have to answer. Matt Latham also pops up for a 2-minute Cassette Tape segment with An Important Public Service Announcement.
