  • So, What‘s the Problem? Bugsy Malone (1976)
    It's Jimmy's birthday and to celebrate, he gets to pick a move from the year of his birth that he watched as a kid. So, Bugsy Malone it is. It's a gangster movie where all the characters are played by kids and instead of guns with bullets, cream is a deadly weapon. And they have pedal cars! But does having kids play parts that are usually portrayed by adults, problematic? Listen to find out! Contains mild language.

  • Drop the Pilot: Back to norm (2005)
    Drop the whaaaaat? Yeah, that's right, we are back. Tysto and Jimmy pay tribute Norm MacDonald and what better way to do that than to crap on a failed pilot of his? They discuss each sketch as well as humour which leads to talk of British panel shows and both hosts seem to have a different definition of what makes someone "camp". Contains strong language and talk of suicide, as that is in the show in question.

  • So, What‘s the Problem? She‘s All That (1999)
    We're back and so are romantic comedies and the pinnacle of the genre from the 90s... Oh, wait, this isn't 10 Things I Hate About You, that movie's so good. Anyway, there's this, instead. We talk about the cast and its weak link, unnecessary scenes and just how good 10 Things I Hate About You is. It's so good, you guys.  Contains strong language and stay tuned at the end for what we're doing next week.

  • Starchaser: The Legend of Orin (1985)
    Ooh, boy, it's one of those "how is this for kids?" movies and despite there being a lot we could talk about, this is a short episode. It's an odd one. As this is late, we shall no longer be having theme months but will have seasons instead. We explain more on the episode. Contains strong language.

  • Fringe Division: 2.5-Dream Logic
    Episode five is here... so hear us talk about Quantum Leap! Yeah, sorry folks, it's a dull episode of Fringe so Martin would rather talk about other things. Jump to about 12 minutes in if you want to hear about the actual episode. Other tangents include Masters of the Universe, including the new Netflix series, with no spoilers. Contains strong language.

  • So, What's the Problem? The Care Bears Movie (1985)
    Oh, dear. Jen and the podcast's very own Grumpy Bear, Jimmy, discuss this favourite from the former's childhood. And the latter just isn't having any of it. They talk about the cast, fawn over one in particular, Jen talks about the artist behind some of the bears and disbelieves Jimmy about the existence of a show from his past. Oh and Jimmy accuses the Care Bears of being stalkers, enjoy! Contains strong language.

  • So, What's the Problem? The Adventures of Mark Twain (1985)
    Episode two of Animated Month sees the very first (and probably only) Claymation movie to be covered on the show. It's a short one this week because... well, you'll see. Contains one use of strong language as Jimmy could just about restrain himself. For info on what is next in Animation month, listen to the end.

    Leonard Nimoy is back, people!!!! Things are explained, villains are disposed of and Walter almost gets some! And it's only episode 4! Tangents include streaming services, the Body Snatchers movies and Munity on the Buses. Also, listen out for our subtle new way of hiding spoilers. Contains strong language and adult humour some may find in poor taste.

  • So, What's the Problem? Beauty and the Beast (1991)
    It's the first episode of Animation month! Jen has picked this classic tale that was the first animated movie to be nominated for best picture. Oliver & Company was snubbed!
