This is an older iteration of my current podcasts (all of which can be found at www.danielswan.squarespace.com). They're still amazing though, so I didn't want to deprive people of their worth.
I heart Netflix. I can't deny it. It's the most significant thing to happen to television since Quantum Leap, and I want to sing it from the rooftops. As my building manager has spoken to me a couple of times now about noise pollution, I'll just say it into my microphone. And record it. And upload it. And now you can listen to it! The circle of life.
I detail trailers that you should watch. And ones you shouldn't because they're awful.
I take a look at the big news stories taking place back home in the UK.
A Brucie Bonus episode! I watched the Oscars last night, just the same as everyone else. I have lots of opinions on what happened at the Oscars, just like everyone else. I wanted to tell the world my opinions on the Oscars, just like... well, not everyone else necessarily, but probably thousands. Well done for finding mine amongst the others. You won't be disappointed.
I spent the first 29 years of my life in the UK. I've spent the last 3 months in the USA. The two countries are different. Here are some observations I made on the key differences, whilst a bit drunk.
The Oscars are soon to be here! So I thought I'd detail my thoughts on two of the Best Picture nominees, as well as who I want to win in the other categories, just in case any member of the Academy are listening and can't make up their minds. You're welcome.
It's the Merc with a Mouth, the 4th wall busting, profanity shouting, chimichanga loving comic book character! He got his own film, and those mother hubbards did it right. We chat in spoilery detail about as much of the film as possible.
I gush, effusively, for the TV show that killed an entire Sunday of my life, and discuss my thoughts on the film that will inevitably get Leo his 1st Oscar, with a side order of spoilers for both topics.
It's all about QT here, with a brief discussion of every single film he's directed so far, along with a spoileriffic discussion of his 8th and latest. Wait a minute... 8th film? And 8's in the title! INCEPTION!!!11!
The biggest film of the year. Spoileriffic discussion of every character and intimate detail of this science fiction juggernaut's return to the world of cinema (and respectability).
Spoileriffic discussion of the latest Bond outing. Good things, bad things, sexy ladies, shiny fingernails. The usual.
