    Happy New Year! Its the special episode you've been waiting for with special guest and friend of the podcast, Sophie! We had some technical issues halfway through recording, so this episode was recorded over two days, which is why this episode is over two hours long, and the files were so large I had to fist fight my laptop for a month to make this even remotely listenable. If there's any issues with this episode I apologise but I simply refuse to open the editing file for this episode again. Anyway in this episode we talk about the sequel to Knives Out, what we think the next installment in the franchise might look like, and go on various tangents including but not limited to Vin Diesel's career, Minecraft Youtubers, Stephen King and Jeremy Renner. Music is 'Fall For Me' by Syllvie. Listen to their debut EP 'Ouch' on Spotify. Follow us on Twitter at @flixerspod for memes and updates about future films and episodes, and consider leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts and we might read it out next episode. We're also on Tumblr and Tiktok. Thank you for listening in 2022 and here's to 2023 being full of terrible films!

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Its our last episode of the year! This episode, we endured the terrible editing and constant hottub drone shots in 'Falling for Christmas' for Lindsey Lohan's return to the screen. We talked about having a Brokeback Mountain moment, the colour of mistletoe berries, Santa's guilt and why running out of pumpkin pancakes would be Rosie's final straw.

For our 10th episode, we watched 'Look Both Ways', a film that can only be described as 'Sk8er Boi' by Avril Lavigne-coded. We talk about Rosie's extensive Riverdadle knowledge, good interview and networking techniques and the many, many covers of 'We Are Young' by fun. Music is 'Fall For Me' by Syllvie.

    Woah. What's this? An actually not terrible film? How did that get in here? In our defence it wasn't out when we chose it. We should have watched that Lili Reinhart pregnancy film instead. This episode the Flixers watched 'Do Revenge' and lost their minds. Talking points include coming out in the car, the film 'Angus Thoughts: Perfect for Snogging', reading mass texts on your Apple Watch and Jean Jacket impressions (yes we end up talking about 'Nope' again).

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 28, 2022 59:38


    CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains a lot of talk about dingdongs, as the film is about dingdongs, so if that's not your thing, give this one a miss. If you don't know what we mean by dingdongs, then this episode also isn't for you I'm afraid. This episode the Flixers watched "The Package" with ... mixed reactions and fight each other in an attempt to fix it. They also talk about the many Chekov's guns, the Toy Story 2 cleaning montage, the medical realities of dismemberment and many, many dingdong jokes. Music is 'Fall For Me' by Syllvie. Listen to their debut EP 'Ouch' on Spotify. Follow us on Twitter at @flixerspod Editor's note: this episode was recorded in August 2021, so if there are any references that seem dated, thats why. We have both graduated at this point now lol.
