Finally, did we have a brat summer? And are we very mindful, very demure? Listen and find out!

In this episode, Tony and Carl explore why disgraced BBC newsreader Huw Edwards is being erased from TV shows and movies, and discuss the wider trend of editing problematic people out of order content.
Plus! Tony has finally abandoned the horror show that is X, which warrants some explanation. Should we all being doing it? Or is he holier than thou?
Finally, raw dogging might sound a naughty pursuit, but it concerns a trend on flights that is ever growing and rather bizarre. We explore it and wonder if we could survive...

Welcome back to THE DISCOURSE, a podcast about film, entertainment & culture.
In this episode, Carl and Tony chat about Kevin Costner's Horizon: Chapter One, his Western saga, quite why it failed at the box office, and whether it represents 'real' cinema.
Plus! Emma Roberts is not happy we (well, not just us) are mocking films like Madame Web, claiming internet culture is one big pile on. Does she have a point? Or should we be extracting the Michael out of some films?
Finally, after a Sight & Sound piece on 21st century cinema so far, we discuss the list and ponder quite what the prevailing winds of modern cinema are...
