  • SPECIAL EPISODE 3: CONVERSATIONALISTS

    It's Canada Day! Happy Canada Day, all!

    If you are headed to a cottage good news, we got you covered. We are talking about Pontypool, a movie set in winter and full of zombies. It's a good movie with a few problematic elements.

    Support Canadian film! What's your favourite Canadian made movie?

    Let us know in the comments.

    As Always,   Pew. Pew. Pew.

  • EPISODE 14: BUT WHY IS THE RUM GONE?!

    If you only knew how many times we had to record this podcast. It was due to there being too much rum... is that why it's all gone? (Omg... how hard did we have to dig for that joke.) That being said, Ben did indeed have some technical difficulties while recording this episode, and we decided not to record it for the third time.

    This week we are talking Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl! We loved this movie. It's still great. We talk about our love for it and the craft that went into this just gorg film.   We also ask the question... what's your pirate name? Do you know what your pirate name is? Let us know in the comments.

    As always...  Arrrrrrr!

  • SPECIAL EPISODE 2: I DO A GOOD IMPRESSION OF A HOT DOG

    Okay, just want to start this off by saying we all love Robin Williams. This episode contains some content that could be triggering to some people. We talk about Robin Williams and his impact on us. Hannah cried. It was a whole thing. We wanted to warn you because our episodes are usually pretty light-hearted. If that makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to skip forward to 12:30 where we start talking about the movie and our review. 

    We are releasing this episode for father's day! Mrs. Doubtfire is a really great movie and y'all should watch it again. Robin Williams is a force and the entire thing is just funny and sad and all of the emotions in between.

  • EPISODE 13: BACKPACK BELLA AND THE ADVENTURES OF THE PASTY WHITE CREEPS

    Oh, Twilight. Oh boy.

    If you were a teenage girl in the 2000's you likely saw this movie. You likely had a crush on Edward Cullen, let's be real. 

    This movie is SO problematic. Like... all the red flags of an abusive relationship so a bit of a trigger warning because we go into that portrayal in this episode. 

    There are so many ridiculous and awful things in this movie and yet 1/3 of this podcast (cough cough Hannah cough cough) still finds it endearing somehow? Yeah, we don't know why either. 

    Anyway! Enjoy this episode as we rip it apart and talk briefly about vampire reproduction. 

    As always...

  • EPISODE 12: PHIL?! PHIL CONNORS?

    Hey everyone, we know every day is feeling exactly the same (just like that Nine Inch Nails song) but what if everyday WAS EXACTLY THE SAME. 

    Boom. Mind blown. 

    That is the scenario in the classic Groundhog Day with Bill Murray! We discuss what we'd do if we were in this scenario and get surprisingly deep when discussing self-improvement and how we change over the years. 

    Watch Groundhog Day to escape your own personal Groundhog Day and listen to us talk about it!

  • EPISODE 11: SPICE UP YOUR LIFE?!

    HE WHO CONTROLS THE SPICE CONTROLS THE UNIVERSE!

    In preparation for Denis Villeneuve's take on Dune, this week, we did all the work and watched David Lynch's Dune and Jodorowsky's Dune. Both movies are nuts in their own right.

    Listen as we discuss sandworms, weird yelling guns, space slugs and the man who brought together H.R. Giger and Dan O'Bannon before it was cool.

    Please rate, review and subscribe! It really helps us get the word out. 

    Our episode was edited and mixed by Jordan Moore. Find him online @thatjormoore.

  • EPISODE 10: ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!?!

    Yeah, it took us about 0.01s to make that joke.

    This week, The Winchester Crew discusses Ridley Scott's masterpiece, Gladiator. WE GOT SO PUMPED AND STOOD ON OUR COUCHES WITH OUR THUMBS IN THE AIR, TONGUES OUT, YELLING AT THE CREEP-IST THAT IS JOAQUIN PHEONIX TO LET OUR BOY MAXIMUS KICK HIS BUTT.

    Russel Crowe may be problematic, but dang is he good in this film. Were those bangs a staple in Rome or just a Crowe special?

    BE ENTERTAINED AND LISTEN TO US TALK ABOUT STUFF! Also, it would be great if you would rate, review and subscribe if we did indeed entertain you.

  • EPISODE 9: CAR COMMERCIAL THE MOVIE!

    Buckle your seatbelts and boom boom explosions! THE WINCHESTER CREW IS YELLING OVER THE LOUD SFX OF TRANSFORMERS. This was everyone's favourite movie when they were 17, don't lie. We see you guys trying to lie. Complete with Megan Fox exploitation and all the military porn you can imagine. 

    Spoilers galore for Transformers. We also talk about other stuff. 

    Remember the Mountain Dew transformer? What a time it was.
