  • Spinal Tap 2: Back on the Road or Just Treading Water?
    Jan 3 2026

    Spinal Tap is back for one last, barely‑functional blast of rock mayhem — and we’re diving straight into the glorious chaos of Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. The band reunites for a final, unwanted concert, the amps are still dangerously loud, and the drummers remain statistically unsafe.

    We also take a moment to mourn the loss of Rob Reiner, the legendary filmmaker who gave the world Marty DiBergi and shaped the original film’s genius. His absence hangs over this sequel, but his influence is everywhere.

    Expect nostalgia, nonsense, and a celebration of the loudest band that never quite got it together.

  • The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992): Masterpiece or Muppet-show?
    Dec 11 2025

    Two of us believe The Muppet Christmas Carol is the peak of festive cinema, a perfect blend of Michael Caine’s gravitas and Gonzo’s narration. The other thinks it should be buried in the past with the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come.

    Join us for a heated debate where we defend the magic of "One More Sleep 'til Christmas" against a co-host who has officially gone full Humbug. Is Michael Caine the greatest Scrooge of all time, or is our third mic just allergic to joy? We’re lighting the lamp (not the rat!) for a festive showdown.

  • Clockwork Orange Controversy: Rewatching Kubrick's Shock Classic
    Nov 28 2025

    Ho Ho Ho! We’re digging back into the controversy with the 1971 classic A Clockwork Orange. This episode mixes nostalgia, outrage, and obsession as the hosts debate Kubrick’s shocks, Malcolm McDowell’s wild turn, the film’s notorious bans, and why the movie still makes people squirm today.

    Expect candid opinions (some love it, some loathe it), behind-the-scenes anecdotes, and a few laughs — as a special bonus, we have a cameo from Malcolm McDowell himself!

  • Rusted Junk Reviews: Leon (1994) — Love, Bullets and Controversy
    Nov 11 2025

    Hey — welcome to Rusted Junk. We’re digging into the 1994 classic Leon the Professional: Jean Reno’s quiet intensity, Natalie Portman’s breakout performance, and Gary Oldman’s unforgettable chaos. We chat versions (definitely watch the extended cut), the film’s European-meets-New York vibe, and why the director’s real-life history makes the story harder to swallow for some.

    It’s frank, a bit messy, and totally compelling — like gossip with film analysis. Come join us for the laughs, the hot takes, and the deep-dive into one of the most talked-about films of the ’90s.

  • Monty Python’s Life of Brian: Blasphemy, Banter & Belly Laughs
    Oct 27 2025

    We’re chatting Monty Python’s Life of Brian: the controversy, the quotable moments, the oddball humour, and whether it still lands. Think of this as two mates catching up over a pint and arguing about what’s actually funny.

    Whether you’re a lifelong Python stan or a Gen Z first-timer, there’s a lot here to laugh at, squirm at, and debate. Spoilers? Slightly. Strong opinions? Absolutely. Pull up a chair and let’s disagree nicely.

  • Indecent Proposal (1993): Million-Dollar Morals
    Sep 29 2025

    Hey — remember that time a billionaire offered a million bucks for a night and everyone lost their damn minds? We laughed, cringed, and argued our way through Indecent Proposal. Join us for a cheeky, unfiltered chat about bad choices, terrible financial planning, and why hippos ruin dramatic finales.

    It’s casual, messy, and strangely nostalgic — perfect for anyone who loves a guilty-pleasure watch and a few hot takes with their tea. Come for the scandal, stay for the jokes.

  • Kubrick's Final Puzzle: The Secrets of Eyes Wide Shut
    Sep 17 2025

    Come join us like you're hearing it from a mate on the sofa — we’re dissecting Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut: the weird, the beautiful, and the utterly baffling.

    We chat why Joe’s obsessed, why some of us were left cold, and the wild conspiracy theories that keep people rewatching this film for years. Expect humour, friendly arguments, and a few eyebrow-raising moments.

    Perfect if you love film rabbit holes, awkward family dynamics, and the kind of movie that sparks a thousand theories over a pint.

  • Forrest Gump: Controversy written all over it!
    Sep 1 2025

    Well, for regular podcast listeners, the time has come - Forrest Gump is Charlie's most contentious film and, my goodness, he doesn't hold back. Spoiler alert but it's 2 against 1 but it's a must-listen and (we think) one of our best.
