In the week where the cup final became 'cool' we decamp to the kitchen to end as we mean to go on and pore over the spectacle and the season whilst bringing you the PFAI awards nominations with Stephen McGuinness. We also have a chat with Jack Moylan about leaving Duffer for Lincoln and talk contrasting cup final emotions with Jonathan Afolabi and seasoned veteran Chris Forrester. It's the longest mailbag of the season, but who's in control of it? It's no country for old men, a successful season for Shamrock Rovers? Maybe, managers in waste management, tummy tickling, collecting rent from a Bohs fan and the circle of life. If that's not enough for our bumper end of year extravaganza with Collar and Cuff, Future Ticketing and Rascals Brewery, there's also a hint that there might be even more on the way, or is there?
Rover and out. It's a late night reaction pod to start this week as the lads pour over Icelandic disappointment for Shamrock Rovers and the questions it raises before taking a trip back in time with Sam and Al to earlier in the day to deal with your mailbag queries and emerge from the overpriced coffee houses of Inchicore to do some work. After reflecting on the enormity of turning 40, the lads ask Chris Forrester about turning 30 as the start point for an open chat about his relationship with football. Beyond that, there's FAI Cup chat, ruminations on Dan's uncoached football career, Galway pub tips, another twist in the Roddy Collins book saga, and more handwringing about departing players and unfinished stadiums. Take the quantum leap with us into this seventy minute journey with Collar and Cuff, Rascals Brewery and Back to the Future Ticketing!

Chris comes in to chat with us about the League of Ireland, arriving to play for Bohs in his school uniform and beating the likes of Villa & Leicester in cup games for Peterborough. He names the best and worst players he's played with in his career so far and goes through some career highs and lows, including struggling with his mental health while playing in the UK after the death of his sister.
Chris Forrester is set to play his 300th game for St Patrick's Athletic on Friday night as we host Shamrock Rovers in a sold out Dublin Derby at Richmond Park. Forrester has won the league and two FAI Cups across his two spells, scoring 69 goals, including some belters and make lots of European memories along the way. He sat down with Jamie Moore for this for an in-depth chat about his time at the club so far, his love of and connection with the people and plans for more success #StPatsFC #Saints2023
The wrathiest wrath of all wraths. The post WH40k Book Club Episode #93 -The Wrath of the Lost by Chris Forrester appeared first on WH40K Book Club.
St Patrick's Athletic are delighted to confirm that Jamie Lennon has signed a new mutli-year contract at Richmond Park. The 24-year-old will be going into his 6th full season as a senior player at the club, having made his league debut on the opening night of the 2018 campaign. Lennon has made 136 appearances in the famous red and white, 112 of them in the league, and was part of our FAI Cup success in 2021. Following Ian Bermingham's retirement, former Ireland U21 international Lennon becomes the longest serving player at the club in a continuous spell. In the current squad, only Chris Forrester (288 appearances during his two spells) has played more games for St Pat's. Jamie joined our U19s in January 2016 and spent two seasons in The Saints Academy before progressing to the senior squad. He made his first team debut in August 2017 in a Leinster Senior Cup game against Firhouse Clover, scoring his first and only senior goal for the club that day, a cracker from outside the box. He sat down with Jamie Moore shortly after putting pen to paper

On this week's super special extra bonus party golf club pod we have PFAI awards nominees Georgie Kelly and Ross Tierney from Bohemians who completely break the mould and stereotypes of footballers as they delve into heartfelt discussions of family, personal loss, mental health, sustainability and economics. They do mention football once or twice too. And on cup final week we also hear from St Patrick's Athletic star, the award nominated Chris Forrester, who shirks his iconic Ian Curtis lookalike status for a more workmanlike Michael Carrick comparison and talks about how football is giving him joy again. Looking ahead with Dan and Johnny to the cup final, he's bullish about the youngsters at Pats and how they look to cause a bit of an upset. But not as much of an upset as Johnny was feeling after his encounter with the mannequins during the week. Stephen McGuinness helps us to set the scene for the awards and details his own battle. This is episode 37.

Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. For some musicians, the confines of the traditional three-minute music video just aren’t enough. This week, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss “Guava Island” and “Lemonade,” two recent music films at the top of what the medium can be. “Guava Island,” released April 13 on Amazon Prime Video, is a 55-minute-long showcase of the music of Donald Glover, better known by his stage name Childish Gambino. The film tells the story of a musician, played by Glover, on a strictly-controlled island who is trying to organize a music festival for everyone to enjoy. When Beyoncé’s 65-minute-long film “Lemonade” premiered on HBO, it became a cultural moment. The film, which is approaching its third anniversary next week, isn’t quite a traditional narrative film; it’s divided into eleven chapters, one for each song on the album excluding “Formation.” Each chapter presents a different video with a different visual style for each song, ultimately telling a story about betrayal and forgiveness on both an individual and societal level.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. A darty playing music too loudly, alumni coming back to town in hordes, townies preparing for likely inevitable mayhem. It is undeniably Little 500 season in Bloomington. Called “The World’s Greatest College Weekend,” Little 500 is an IU tradition so important to the local culture, it even has its own movie. “Breaking Away,” released in 1979 and written by IU alumnus Steve Tesich, tells the story of a group of 19-year-old Bloomington residents and the divide between IU students and those living in the town, centered on the Little 500 race itself. This week hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester watched “Breaking Away” for the first time, and thankfully they both loved it. In this episode, they discuss the movie and how weird it is to watch a movie filmed where you walk to class every day.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. For the most part, American animation consists of only children's movies. While studios such as Pixar and Laika produce gorgeous and thoughtful films, at a certain point the limitation of ratings can take away from the work itself. The movies are beautiful, yes, but they're still for kids. Where are the animated thrillers? Where are the animated films that verge on the disturbing, the challenging, the questionable? The answer: Japan. This week, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss "Akira" and "Perfect Blue," two influential and influential movies that happen to also be anime. "Akira" tells the story of a youth biker gang in the futuristic, cyberpunk metropolis of Neo-Tokyo, set in the then-impossibly far away year of 2019. Since its release in 1988, the movie has gained a cult following and is occasionally credited with introducing audiences outside of Japan to anime. "Perfect Blue" is a psychological horror thriller following Mima, a pop star who starts to lose track between reality and fantasy when she quits music to pursue a serious acting career. Released in 1997 and directed by Satoshi Kon, the film is one that leaves the audience as unsure as its protagonist of what's real and what's fake, but in a good way. This week, special guest Donovan Harden joins the podcast. Harden is an aspiring filmmaker and an IU junior — and he's also an "Akira" super fan.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. The movie-going audience is buzzing about “Us,” the new movie from sketch comedian-turned-horror auteur Jordan Peele. Peele dominated the cultural conversation in 2017 with his hit directorial debut and racial parable “Get Out,” so anticipation for “Us” has been high ever since the trailer was uploaded to YouTube in December. The movie stars Lupita Nyong’o as Adelaide Wilson, a woman who returns to her childhood home with her family, with “Black Panther” standout actor Winston Duke playing her husband and formidable child actors Evan Alex and Shahadi Wright Joseph playing the couple’s two children. The family is accosted by four strangers who break into their house, and the intruders are revealed to be red jumpsuit-wearing doppelgangers of the Wilson family. On this week’s episode, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss “Us,” the film’s significance, comparisons to “Get Out” and how they’re both in love with Duke.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. On this week's episode, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester still aren't ready to admit it's not spring break anymore, but it's a little easier to admit with two twisted tales of vacations gone wrong: 2015's "A Bigger Splash" and 2012's "Spring Breakers." "A Bigger Splash" is the second film in director Luca Guadagnino's self-described Desire trilogy, which ended in 2017 with the hit romance "Call Me by Your Name." It tells the story of famous rock singer Marianne Lane, played by Tilda Swinton, vacationing on a small Italian island with her lover Paul. The vacation promptly gets interrupted by the appearance of Harry — Marianne's ex and Paul's former mentor — and his daughter Penelope. "Spring Breakers" is a crime-filled, neon-colored spectacle of bikinis, cocaine and Britney Spears covers with James Franco on the piano. It's a lot. Distributed by indie film darling company A24, the movie received attention for its leading actresses being former Disney starlets Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens as the titular girls gone wild.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. For every movie that fits into the film noir genre, there seems to be three commenting upon the genre and its tenets. The world of mysterious dames, hard-nosed detectives and unraveling layers of intrigue started in American cinema in the 1920s and lasted until the late 1950s, but the echoes of the style carry decades past that time frame. On this week’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss the 1958 film noir classic “Vertigo” and the 2001 neo-noir surrealist film “Mulholland Drive.” “Vertigo,” directed by the legendary so-called master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock, follows the story of a former detective suffering from vertigo who is hired to follow the wife of an acquaintance. In 2012, it replaced “Citizen Kane” as the greatest film ever made in the British Film Institute’s Sight & Sound critics’ poll. The David Lynch-written and -directed “Mulholland Drive” is notable for its non-traditional narrative structure that left audiences and critics speculating on what the movie is actually about and what happens in it. The film seemingly follows an aspiring actress in Los Angeles named Betty who meets an amnesiac woman who was recently in a car accident. The Village Voice called the film a “poisonous valentine to Hollywood” in its review.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. Now that the dust has settled after the 91st Annual Academy Awards, this cursed Oscars season is officially over, with some mixed results. On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss the highs and lows of Oscars night. The most awarded film of the night was "Bohemian Rhapsody," with four wins, and the Best Picture award went to "Green Book" — two movies that have received criticism for both their messaging and the people behind the camera. Olivia Colman won Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Queen Anne in "The Favourite," a surprising upset over Glenn Close's performance in "The Wife." Mexican writer and director Alfonso Cuarón won three Oscars for his film "Roma": Best Director, Foreign Language Film and Best Cinematography.
Welcome to back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. Many action movies are intensely formulaic, with most going down the list of what's expected of an action movie: A car chase, a bomb that's going to go off at some point and lots of wasted bullets. The same expectation of formula can be applied to superhero movies, with the basic roles of good guy with powers versus bad guy with powers. On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss two films from 2018 that stick to formulas, but are so good it doesn't matter: "Black Panther" and "Mission: Impossible - Fallout." "Black Panther" became a cultural moment when it was released a little over a year ago and introduced audiences to the world of Wakanda. It's now nominated for seven Academy Awards, including now being the first superhero movie to be nominated for Best Picture. "Mission: Impossible - Fallout" is the sixth installment of the "Mission: Impossible" series. It stars stars Tom Cruise as the spy Ethan Hunt, who is trying to track some mission plutonium, and Henry Cavill as CIA agent August Walker. Critics have said it's the best film in the series, and it currently has a 97 percent positive rating on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. Period pieces are usually boring. Movies featuring stuffy actors wearing petticoats and speaking in bad English accents are the norm when it comes to a certain genre of historical movie. On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester celebrate two recent sleek, subversive and sexy period pieces that aren't afraid to stir the pot: 2017's "Phantom Thread" and 2018's "The Favourite." "Phantom Thread" was written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson — notable for the porn epic "Boogie Nights" and the oil boom-set drama "There Will Be Blood — and was nominated for six Oscars at the 90th Academy Awards. While it only won one for Best Costume Design, some consider the film to be one of Anderson's best. "The Favourite" is a dark comedy following two cousins trying to win the favor of Queen Anne of England in the 18th century. Directed by Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, the film has received 10 Oscar nominations, including acting nominations for all three leading women.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. With years of internationally acclaimed work, a distinct philosophical look at the nature of connections and a new film with 10 Academy Award nominations, Mexican writer and director Alfonso Cuarón has made a name for himself as a critical darling with an eternally-fresh artistic eye. On this week’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss arguably his two most personal works: 2001’s coming-of-age drama “Y Tu Mamá También” and 2018’s black-and-white tale of a live-in housekeeper, “Roma.” “Y Tu Mamá También” follows two teenage boys who go on a road trip with an older married woman, but it’s so much more than the wacky sex romp that it sounds like it is. It even earned an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay, despite some controversy over explicit sex and drug use. When it came time to make “Roma”, Cuarón decided to shoot the film himself in addition to writing, directing, co-producing and co-editing it. The story is focused on Cleo, a housekeeper in the home of a middle-class family in Mexico City in 1970. Cleo is played by first-time actress Yalitza Aparicio, whose Oscar nomination for Best Actress marks the first time an Indigenous woman has been up for the prize.
Welcome to back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too. Generally speaking, faith-based films usually suck. More often than not, they tend to be pandering, flat and completely derivative. Filmmakers rarely have the courage to tackle the nuances of spirituality or look at the uglier sides of what it means to live a religious life. On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss two films that do: 2011's "The Tree of Life" and 2017's "First Reformed." "The Tree of Life," directed by Terrence Malick, stars Brad Pitt, Sean Penn and Jessica Chastain in an epic comparing a man's memory of growing up in 1950s Texas with the origins of the universe and life on Earth. "First Reformed," directed by Paul Schrader, follows the Reverend Ernst Toller — played by Ethan Hawke in a performance many say deserved an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor — as he wrestles with questions of faith and forgiveness after encountering a radical environmentalist.
On the show this morning we had the buildup to Ireland's opening game with England in the Six Nations next weekend with Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt and captain Rory Best along with England head coach Eddie jones and captain Owen Farrell. Jamie and Nathan spoke about their favorite WWE wrestlers ahead of the Royal Rumble, Chris Forrester spoke to jamie about his return to St Pats from Aberdeen this week and we also heard from Ireland U21 manager Stephen Kenny after naming his first squad since being appointed manager.
On the show this morning Jamie was joined by two Dublin GAA legends Charlie Redmond and Humphrey Kelleher discussing both the hurlers and footballers in action this weekend. We heard from Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt and captain Rory Best along with England duo Eddie Jones and Owen Farrell ahead of their opening Six Nations match next week. Jamie chatted to Chris Forrester after he returned to St Pats from Aberdeen during the week and we also heard from Ireland U21 manager Stephen Kenny after he named his first squad since being appointed in November. And Jamie chatted to Karen Coventry who is the Special Olympics Ireland Director Of Sport just a few weeks before the world games in Abu Dabhi.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. Every year, movie nerds anticipate the nominations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, better known as just the Academy, to see if their favorite films of the year get any recognition leading up to the Oscars. The nominations are the moment when all the awards show buzz either falls flat or propels a picture to the canon of movies worth seeing. This year's nominations are a mixed bag. This week, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester are breaking the usual format to discuss the highs and lows of the nominations, which were announced earlier this week. For example, the thoughtful and beautiful films "Roma" and "The Favourite" are both up for Best Picture, but Barry Jenkins' latest film, "If Beale Street Could Talk," wasn't even nominated in that category. This is only a couple years after Jenkins' "Moonlight" took home the same award. But, perhaps most egregiously of all, "Paddington 2" didn't receive a single nomination.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. A lot of children’s movies have a habit of talking down to or tailoring themselves to their audience, favoring cutesy kitsch over impactful storytelling. On this new episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss two children’s movies that are wonderful specifically because they don’t do that: "Paddington 2," and "The Last Unicorn." "Paddington 2," the story of our hero Paddington Bear trying to find a birthday present for his Aunt Lucy, is currently the highest rated film on Rotten Tomatoes. What appears to be a straight-forward movie for children ends up touching on topics like the hostility of modern society towards immigrants as well as the injustices inherent within the criminal justice system. It's still about a CGI bear who loves marmalade sandwiches, though. "The Last Unicorn" is a 1982 animated fever dream of a movie about a unicorn who, fearing she is the last of her kind, goes on a journey to find the rest of the unicorns. In her travels, she finds a butterfly who only communicates in song, a very nervous wizard who hasn't quite figured out how to use magic, a talking pirate cat with a peg leg and a eye-patch who only speaks in riddles and so much more. It's a film that is actively terrifying, but for children.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the Indiana Daily Student film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. The Midwestern identity has been the subject of a lot of scrutiny in recent years. There was a lot of conjecture from people living on the coasts about the Midwest after the 2016 election — who lives in small towns in states like Indiana? What are their lives like? In this episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester talk about two films from the last two years that attempt to answer that question, with different levels of success: "Monrovia, Indiana" and "Columbus." These films both offer looks into small town Indiana life as veteran documentarian Frederick Wiseman takes viewers into day-to-day scenes in "Monrovia, Indiana" and debut director Kogonada makes the audience think — and cry — about what it's like to both love and hate the place you're from.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. There’s an accepted rule in film that remakes suck, and that horror remakes suck even more. Think '90s “Godzilla,” the shot-for-shot “Psycho” redux and the needless reboots of “Halloween,” “Friday the Thirteenth” and “Nightmare on Elm Street.” On today’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar are talking about a horror remake they love to pieces: Luca Guadagnino’s “Suspiria,” as well as the 1977 original that inspired it, Dario Argento’s cult classic “Suspiria.” This episode contains spoilers for both versions of "Suspiria."
Voting is one of the most patriotic acts there is. So much so that it almost compares to heroic acts of domestic terrorism in protest of a fascist state. To celebrate Election week, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar are talking about the 1999 film “Election” and “V for Vendetta."
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. In 1978, John Carpenter revolutionized the slasher horror subgenre with his classic “Halloween.” In 2018, after sequels, remakes, remakes of sequels and sequels of remakes, things finally make sense in Haddonfield, Illinois. Now, things are back to the beginning with a definitive sequel, simply entitled “Halloween.” On today’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar talk Halloween, "Halloween", and why we love them BOTH.
It’s hard to nail down precisely what horror film is – is it scary? Violent? Bloody? But horror through film history has consistently been a response to taboos. In contemporary and independent horror, a new trend spins horror film into social metaphor. On a new episode of Double feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar are joined by guest Joe Schroeder to talk about the recent social thriller “Get Out” and the period terror “the VVitch.”
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes, and maybe some lukewarm ones too. Spooky season is upon us as we draw closer and closer to Halloween, but not everyone has the stomach for the gory flicks that define most of the horror genre. There are plenty of options for the weak-stomached that hold back on the blood and guts but still deliver on achieving the perfect vibe for the season. For the fourth episode of Double Feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar gush over not one, but two masterpieces from Laika Studios— "Coraline" and "Paranorman." Our special guest this week is IDS photographer Alex Deryn. This episode contains spoilers for Guillermo del Toro's "The Devil's Backbone."
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. Telling true stories is hard. There’s a delicate balance between adhering to fact and creating something in compelling and cinematic that’s hard to get just right without venturing into overt sensationalizing or relentless boredom. For our third episode of Double Feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar speak as journalists first and film fanatics second as we talk about Journalism movies-- the good, the bad, and “The Post.” Our special guest this week is IDS business beat reporter Alex Hardgrave.
