The Clappers

Karl and Andrew discuss 1917, the imminent Oscars sweep by a certain numerological motion picture, The new Margot Robbie extravaganza and something romantic.

It's a new year, and Andrew is determined to make some changes - and he's going to write the letters to demand them too. Karl gets excited about the most brilliantly bonkers film he's seen in years, puzzles over the question of can (and should) Hitler be funny, and Andrew goes to the races.

At lat, it's the episode you've been missing, even if you didn't know it. Karl buys a car, Andrew watches The Politician and Sensitive Skin, and Karl wrestles with time travel in the Terminator films. Maybe that explains why this one went missing for so long then reappeared. Bloody Skynet.

In which Andrew salivates over Ford v Ferrari, Karl makes the case for Greta Gerwig's magnificent adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's novel Little Women, and our hosts go a-hiking on Tasmania's Three Capes Track.

Karl and Andrew wade through the swamp of Heritage Rock, doze in the arms of Morpheus with Almodovar's Pain and Glory and risk dysentery and malaria with AACTA award-winning Netflix feature, The King.

Andrew visits Sydney to attend the first of (hopefully) many weddings made possible by a recent plebiscite and Karl reports on the newest challenge to the multiplex and continues to see heritage acts live on stage.

In which our hero valiantly fights his way through swathes of publicists to chat with Ms Zellweger, star of the Judy Garland film Judy and the Indecent Proposal rehash What/If. Plus the incredible yacht-doc Maiden, which Karl reckons you really must say, and Annabel Crabb,'s Quarterly Essay on why some men still shirk on the domestic front. Not your hosts, of course. Oh no.

In which our heroes debate the very notion of taste, and whether it's not just about what you like, but especially what you don't.

And for Andrew, the latter category includes Stevie Nicks and co, and any percussionist-turned-comedian who says it's not very hard to play the drums.

Tune in. You know you want to.
