We welcome Seth Sturgill to the first podcast of the new year to discuss a film that comes around only so often.

Everything, Everywhere, All at Once is a special film for many reasons, which we go deep into in this very spoiler-heavy discussion, and we go as far as to say its faultless. A bold statement, but one that really holds true to this particular film.

We unfortunately kick off 2024 with some audio issues, with Jason having the wrong microphone selected in the recording software. We ran this through Adobe AI, and the results are remarkable. Its not perfect, but its a 100% improvement over the original audio. I'd just like to state here that I was happy to use AI in this situation, but we are definitely not behind AI replacing real people, and that should never be the case.

But please check out Seth's podcasts; they are a wonderful listen, so if you are looking for a new Nintendo podcast or just want to add another to your playlist, then you can find them at the following handy links: Big thanks to Seth for joining us; hopefully this will not be the last we hear of him.

This episode is dedicated to Matt Dale. Matt is well known for the Quantum Leap podcast he hosted and for writing pieces on the show and other pop culture, including Doctor Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, and much more. He sadly passed away on Christmas Day 2023 through a suspected heart attack. He was only 43 and left a wife and a small child. A GoFundMe page has been set up for his family and if you would like to donate to this, you can visit it HERE

All of our thoughts and best wishes are with Matts family at this sad time.

Merry Christmas! This year, we decided we would release an episode on Christmas Day as a present from us to you.

Jeffrey Weissman very kindly joined us to not only wish you all a Merry Christmas but to share some stories from his amazing career in Hollywood. We unsurprisingly concentrated on his role as George McFly from Back to the Future Parts II and III, but we also gained some knowledge on his other roles in film and TV, including Max Headroom and Saved by the Bell, plus some chat on his lookalikes.

The entire video recording, which includes pictures that Jeffrey very kindly sent us, is available on our YouTube channel for this episode. So, if that tickles your festive fancies, then you can find that HERE

You can find Jeffrey on INSTAGRAM or please check out his WEBSITE for details on his career, events he is attending, and much more.

We hope that this helps to give you a respite from the festivities, or maybe even some company if you are spending this time alone.

Cliff Foster aka The AMAZING Cliff joins us this week to discuss an all-time Christmas classic, The Muppet Christmas Carol.

Our second Christmas episode is one that is full of nonsense, including a mistake that Jason makes in the intro that then runs through the entire episode, we come up with the Muppetverse and what's up with Kermit with legs!? Anyone fancy a basting?

Cliff is the host of N64LIFE, a twice-weekly Twitch stream where he plays the best (and worst) of the N64, Gameboy Advance, and GameCube. He is also now a full-time host on the UNDERCONSOLETATION PODCAST, which is being reimagined as a show that reviews video game shows from around the world from 1975 to the present day. We highly recommend giving them a look!

Jason was left in the lurch this week with no Rich, Chris, or Steve as we kick off the festive season with our first of two Christmas specials with a deep dive into Tim Allen's The Santa Clause.

Jason, knowing a one-man podcast would be a disaster, knew that he had to go searching for some talent to talk with, and he was over the moon when All N Eric from the ALL N: A Nintendo Podcast came riding in on his imaginary reindeer to save the day!

Eric was a delight to have on the show, and if you are looking for a new Nintendo podcast, then look no further. Find links to his show HERE and find Eric on Twitter HERE

The guys from the Channel 84 Variety Show podcast made an impromptu visit too, to share their thoughts on the film. Make sure to bring some mince pies next time, lads! You can find their podcast HERE

And we do appreciate that Tim Allen these days is a controversial person within certain subjects, and although we do not agree with his views, The Santa Clause is an important film from our childhood and that is how we looked at it in this conversation.

Welcome to Prepare to Fast Forward episode 7, our chance to leave the past behind and concentrate on modern-day pop culture.

For our last episode of the year, we wanted to shine the light on some of our favourite films, TV shows, and video games from 2023.

This meant we crammed so much into this that we had to bin a whole other segment we planned to do, but we still managed to have a hearty chat about a tonne of great stuff.

Spiderman: Across the Spider-Verse, The Creator, Mission Impossible, Our Flag Means Death, Picard S3, Succession, Barbie, Sea of Stars, Dead Space Remake, and much more are covered.

A word of warning though, we tried really hard to avoid spoilers, but Jason could not hold it in when he spoke of Picard S3, so if for some mad reason you haven't seen that yet then please be cautious when we hit that section.

With the upcoming 60th anniversary celebrations, we thought this would be the perfect time to revisit the beginnings of the Dr Who reboot and discuss the Ecclestone series from 2005.

We reminisce about seeing this series for the first time, how it made us feel watching it on TV, and how we were all sucked into this new world.

We also spent some time discussing our personal favourite episode of the series, with no surprise that a certain two-parter was chosen by Rich and Chris!

No Rich or Steve this week for our Halloween special, but Jason did manage to rope in DeadbeatpunK from the WTFDYW podcast at the last minute to cover, and what a pleasure it was to have him on the show.

Dog Soldiers is a cult classic British horror film from 2002, and in our spoiler-filled conversation, we go over the film in general, share our thoughts on the characters and cast who played them, and reveal our favourite moments before giving Dog Soldiers its verdict and score for its place on the exclusive Board from Above. We also nearly confirmed a Heartbeat podcast somehow during the pod!

This week we take a look at the 2005 film adaption of the video game Doom. Karl Urban, The Rock and Rosamund Pike star in this flawed but enjoyable horror (?) thriller (?) comedy (?) film. Join us as we take a spoiler filled deep dive into most parts of the film and reveal where Doom will land on our board from above!

We try out something slightly new for us as we pit two films against each other through five categories. Plot, cast, writing, action and our verdict scores will help in deciding which of these films is the better one. How do we decide? Well, by each of us giving a point to the film we think did the better job in each of those categories.

It was a rocky road getting to the end of this though as we were plagued by many challenges throughout the recording. You may notice a dip in audio quality as the software we used did not record the entirety in the separate tracks. This meant that we had to use the mixed single track and this resulted in a lower quality.

But please don't let that put you off, as you will still be able to hear us well, we just couldn't remove some background noise and some very small sections of echo. We apologise for this and we will be back using our regular service next time.
