We break radio silence now as Nick has been deep in Romulan space with shields up and unable to transmit.   Join us this week as Tom Cruise gets thrown into a Russian prison, breaks out before breakfast, sneaks into the Kremlin, climbs the tallest building on Earth with a pair of malfunctioning oven mitts, and somehow that's only about half of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol. This is the movie where the franchise stops apologizing for itself and fully embraces Tom's quest to personally terrify the insurance industry. With Elise out this week, it's just Nick and Anthony behind the microphones. They celebrate Simon Pegg graduating from "guy in the van" to full IMF field agent, wonder why Jeremy Renner spent a decade auditioning to inherit every major franchise, and ponder how much more effectively we couldsolve international incidents if only we could sprint faster. The conversation veers through Bruce Springsteen T-shirt trivia, Dean Martin prison break soundtracks, Russian nuclear paranoia, Pixar easter eggs, the increasingly ridiculous Mission: Impossible spy gadgets, and whether the fake hallway projector might secretly be the dumbest brilliant idea ever put on film. Somewhere in there they also discuss Ghost Protocol, arguably the movie that turned Mission: Impossible into Hollywood's gold standard for practical action spectacle. So grab your self-destructing cassette tape, double-check your climbing gloves, and remember: if your mission goes catastrophically wrong, just run faster.

Dish is on high alert as we're joined by the ‘food shark'.  Fresh off a flight from New York, we're delighted to welcome Simon Pegg. An English actor and comedian, Pegg is loved for his iconic TV and movie roles, be that TV sitcom Spaced, the Mission: Impossible franchise or The Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy (Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World's End), in which he stars alongside good pal Nick Frost, who we know as a great onion chopper.  Simon joins Nick and Angela to talk about the return of Channel 4's The Undeclared War, which sees him resume his role as Danny Patrick, the Director of Operations at GCHQ. The tense technological thriller, which centres around the threat of cyber attacks and digital sabotage, is available to watch from 21 July.  Angela serves Andhra chintakaya chaap, a recipe for a rich and flavoursome lamb chop curry, created by Maunika Gowardhan. This is paired by the Waitrose wine experts with a bottle of Beaujolais Cuvée Des Vignerons Franc.  Nicknamed ‘the food shark' by his family, due to his opportunistic approach to dinnertime, Simon is fantastic company. We hear about high-concept dining with Nick Frost, get the final word on eating scones, and Angela learns all about the Tom Cruise cake.

We're wrapping up Directorial Debut Month with one of the most beloved horror comedies ever made—Edgar Wright's Shaun of the Dead.A brilliant blend of laugh-out-loud comedy, genuine heart, and zombie mayhem, Shaun of the Dead announced Edgar Wright as one of the most exciting new filmmakers of his generation. Teaming up with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, Wright created a film packed with razor-sharp editing, visual storytelling, clever callbacks, and endless rewatchability.We dive into what makes Shaun of the Dead such a groundbreaking debut, how it reinvented the zombie genre while paying tribute to the classics, and why it remains one of the greatest horror comedies ever made. We also look back at Edgar Wright's signature style and how this first feature laid the foundation for films like Hot Fuzz, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and Baby Driver.As we close out Directorial Debut Month, we're celebrating the first films that launched incredible careers—and Shaun of the Dead is a fitting reminder that sometimes a filmmaker's very first feature can already feel like a modern classic.Grab a pint, avoid the zombies, and don't forget... you've got red on you.#WatchTowerFilmPodcast #DirectorialDebutMonth #ShaunOfTheDead #EdgarWright #SimonPegg #NickFrost #HorrorComedy #ZombieMovies #FilmPodcast #CinephileTalk

How do you convince people to spend £400 on a suit… and then wait up to eight weeks for it?That is exactly what Sam and Julian, the founders of Batch LDN, have managed to do.In this episode of Building The Brand, they share how two founders with no fashion background built one of the most interesting menswear brands in the UK by doing almost everything differently.Batch LDN is not a traditional fashion brand. They do not hold huge amounts of stock. They do not rely on fast fashion cycles. They do not lead with endless paid ads. Instead, they batch customer orders together, make every item to order in London using premium Italian fabrics, and have built a brand around quality, community, retail experience and smart casual menswear that actually fits modern life.But this conversation is not just about suits.Sam and Julian talk openly about why industry naivety became an advantage, why sustainability alone was not enough to drive sales, how a real-life robbery became one of their most successful marketing moments, why having the right co-founder changes everything, and why they chose to build through physical retail first when most fashion brands start online.They also break down how Batch LDN has attracted celebrities, sports teams and investors, why Romesh Ranganathan became involved in the brand, how they became the official menswear supplier to Burnley Football Club, and what comes next as they look to expand the product range, grow online and take Batch international.SHOP @ Batch LDN CONNECT WITH OUR BUILDING THE BRAND COMMUNITY▪️ How Batch LDN created a made-to-order casual suit brand▪️ How batching orders helps reduce waste, stock risk and cost ▪️ Why premium Italian fabrics and London manufacturing became core to the brand ▪️ Why Sam and Julian's lack of fashion experience became a superpower ▪️ How sustainability shaped the business internally but failed as the lead marketing message▪️ How a robbery at their store became a viral marketing campaign ▪️ Why the “See It.

TrekRanks - Member of The Tricorder Transmissions : a Star Trek Podcast Network

Starfleet's very own "miracle worker" is celebrated this week on an extremely special episode of TrekRanks. It's the "Top 5 Scotty Episodes" as we highlight one of the most popular characters in the history of Star Trek, portrayed now across TOS, the Kelvin Timeline and Strange New Worlds by James Doohan, Simon Pegg and Martin Quinn. From b-story, third-in-command triumphs to engineering heroics, our panel of host Jim Moorhouse and uber-Scotty fans Jenn Tifft and Daniel Martin have every corner covered of this deep-dive analysis. The haggis is surely in the fire for this one! Episode Rundown: Diagnostic Cycle: It's never a dull moment, when we go through our roll call of past "character deep dive episodes" (this is the 22nd!). Prime Directive: Each guest on this week's panel reveals exactly how they narrowed down their list and made their final choices, and everyone reveals their one-word to help define Engineer Montgomery Scott, and one of our panelists reveals an extremely personal connection to their affinity for the miracle worker. The Order of Things: All the picks are revealed with the TrekRanks' original "Five words and a hashtag" summary. Secondary Systems: For a few extra picks that just missed our final list. Regeneration Cycle: The panel recaps their picks and we dissect some of the interesting statistical anomalies that arose from the discussion. Temporal Inversion: We flashback to a previous episode of TrekRanks and relay some of the feedback received from listeners. If you have your own picks you would like to relay to us, please hail us at 757-828-RANK (7265) and record your own personal TrekRanks log to let us know your Top 5 Scotty Episodes.

This week on Spooky Szn, we shuffle into the world of the undead for one of the greatest horror-comedies of all time: Edgar Wright's "Shaun of the Dead (2004)!"Lemar is in absolute heaven, celebrating this film as one of his all-time favorites, raving about its pitch-perfect pacing, razor-sharp visual humor, and genuine love for the zombie genre. Mackenzie, however, still isn't a fan of zombie flicks... but even she finds the fun, witty heart in this blood-soaked rom-com.Join the hosts as they dig into the genius of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, dissecting how the film perfectly balances gut-busting laughs with surprisingly poignant drama and gory horror. We talk about the themes of arrested development, the true meaning of friendship, and whether a trip to the Winchester is really the best plan for a zombie apocalypse. Grab a Cornetto, a pint, and maybe a cricket bat, because we're going to tear apart this classic piece of British brilliance.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next.
