The boys are back from their hiatus with a hot fresh review of a moive that's 20 years old! Goodness, how time flies. They've been away so long that Batman Begins is now retro and Jack has a child. Has some time away and the arrival of a newborn affected their reviewing abilities. Listen to find out.

It's not the size that matters but what you do with it. This is our ethos this week as we have a very short episode for you in a bit of a different format. This is because Jack has had a baby and is on paternity leave! Congratulations to him and his partner! But never fear, Cameron has reviews of Friendship and Another Round in our male mid-life crisis spectacular. Hope you enjoy and find some peace, unlike our protagonists.
