July 20, 2024 The Castle (1997) - Ep 62
What up, mate? Ben and Chris are joined by regular guest host Nick Langdon to discuss the beloved Australian classic The Castle. The film didn't make waves in 1999 when it was released in the US, so that's why we must introduce this gem to our listeners. Over time it's become popular in its depiction of a typical Aussie Battler and still has cultural staying power down undahh. As always, Nick offers a wealth of knowledge regarding Australian cinema and culture. We also talk about Russell Crowe's early career, how Australian films differ from Hollywood's, and how important it is to be a strong parent. It's a vibe.
Check out this podcast episode, HERE, that features director Rob Sitch discussing the film and fatherhood.

July 01, 2024 A No-Hit No-Run Summer (2008) - Ep 61 w/ Odie Arbuckle
The Searchers are joined again by Odie Arbuckle to discuss a very obscure movie. This time, and kind of (by accident) in honor of Canada Day, it's a 2008 baseball movie from Quebec titled A No-Hit No-Run Summer. It's a sports heavy episode towards the end of the review, and some highlights are: The Montreal Expos, sports video games, and a guest appearance from Chris' daughter. Thanks to Odie for choosing our first sports movie and exposing us to something new. Enjoy.
