Andrew Tracey, Mens Health UK Fitness Editor, founder of Farm Fitness and all round training machine sat down with Chris and I before we headed to the gym to indulge in some sweaty pushing and pulling back at the start of the year. We've orbited in similar circles as Andrew so it felt only a matter of time before we sat down and press record. If you watch him on instagram his means of fitness generally involve a lot of lifting, and commitment to putting in the time, regardless of where he is, what time it is and how busy his day was. Inspired by the original Gym Jones, the facility created by Mark Twight to put in the work, we share similar visions as to what the world of fitness can be. A place to learn about your Self if you are prepared to get into the shadows and dark corners of the psyche and inquire into the capacity and potentiality of our capacity and capability. I wasn't expecting Andrew to be so gentle, and it was lovely to hear him talk about being inspired, inspiring and putting into the world his efforts in order for them to inspire others and be improved upon for the greater good. We cover his being non sporty as a youngster but possessing as he calls it “Toerag” fitness, accumulated through hours of playing, doing and being to his first job in a proper gym in Harlow Essex, a place full of doormen and bodybuilders, where you were celebrated for the effort you put in regardless of the weight you lift and then onto the downfall of the Personal Trainer, chasing the career which in actual fact spring boarded Andrew to become who he is today with the breadth of knowledge and pure enthusiasm for fitness and becoming more complete. Lifting weights isn't what it is perceived as, strength is important, it teaches us many things and shows us what we can do if we are not afraid to lose in the short term.

In an episode to go down in history not for the greatness of the movie or the amazing discussion that is sparked by it, the four hosts of Movieing On sit down for one last time in this particular constellation to talk about The Mighty, a movie about an introverted boy with some version of PTSD who later grows up to become Daredevil's best friend, but who first befriends a wisecracking boy with Morquio Syndrome. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wonder if the accent coach was asleep on the job. Mostly, you'll smile and enjoy the movie, however. It's sweet.

How much we've all grown since then.

We’re joined again by Toerag to talk about our latest Hugo novel, which this time is Ringworld by Larry Niven. There’s a large ring around a sun and so a team is assembled to go investigate it in a book that dominates the genre of big stupid objects in space.

This week we are joined again by Toerag as we tackle the next in our Hugo award winning books: The City & The City by China Miéville, which won the award in 2010. When a murder takes place, Inspector Tyador Borlú, of the Extreme Crime Squad in the European city-state of Besźel, investigates the murder […]

Stories this week include: Man celebrates first day at new job by leaving early and threatening to burn down manager's house. Couple no longer alarmed by clock stuck in wall. RSPCA rescues goose trapped in thong. Toerag steals mummified digit from signature cocktail.  Also revealed: We discuss the correct way to dispose of a dead goose...

It’s time for another Hugo award winning book, and this month Toerag has picked The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. It’s the tale of a boy who grows up in a graveyard and is our second book ostensibly aimed at children. How does it fare against the usual books that win?

This week we’re joined by Toerag for the next in our Hugo award winners series. This time we’re looking 1989 winner, Hyperion by Dan Simmons.

This week, Toerag, Linnea and Breki buy a school bus from a bunch of Swedish people all named Lars and go an adventure through the Australian outback. It sounds a lot more exciting than it is. Show notes and links: The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994) (imdb.com)

This week on Movieing On, Toerag and Breki take a heroic dose of narcotics and put themselves in an isolation chamber. About an hour and a half later, they both come out describing wild hallucinations about William Hurt, Blair Brown, a man in a monkey suit, drawn out CGI work and that funny guy who was in the Police Academy movies. Trying to piece their hallucinations together, they realize they've been hallucinating wildly different things, so they piece them together as well as possible. ... Which is pretty much how this movie got made, too.

This week on Movieing On, Toerag and Breki are asked to go to a small city in Mexico to protect the locals against a violent foe.

After three weeks of being sans Internets, Toerag joins the show again. And what better show to join us on than for a movie that he picked? This week, we tackle the 1979 musical Hair!

Andrew and Rachel couldn't make it this week, so Toerag sat down with Breki to spend 50 minutes of his life talking about a movie that is only 55 minutes longer than that. We're talking, of course, about the 1998 movie Gods and Monsters, starring Ian McKellen, Brendan Fraser, and Lynn Redgrave.

It's another one of those episodes where Breki and Toerag sit down to discuss a movie.

It's about that time again. The second season of Daredevil has run its course, so Breki calls Chris and Toerag to have a chat about it. Naturally, their opinions differ on multiple counts, but their overall opinion about the Marvel/Netflix thing remains very high.

Back in 1986, a movie was made starring Ralph "Karate Kid" Macchio. It has become a bit of a cult classic, and this week Dr. Toerag and Breki try to figure out why.

This week on Movieing On, Breki and Toerag sit down to have a chat about the 1995 classic, The Usual Suspects. Directed by Bryan Singer and written by Christopher McQuarrie, it's a movie that many claim to be the best of the bunch when it comes to doing what it does. It's certainly best remembered for the twist at the end, and will likely live on as a very popular movie. ... But is it the 24th best movie of all time?

This week, we're talking about the 1997 action movie Face/Off, not starring Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger, although that would have made for a far more interesting movie. Listen to Andrew, Breki, Rachel and Toerag discuss the intricacies of the plot, the deeper meanings behind the film, the illustrious careers of sirs Cage and Travolta, as well as the impeccable editing skill that this movie underwent.

This week on Movieing On, Breki Tomasson sits down with Dr. Toerag and Rachel to talk about the 1978 Buddy Holly Biopic, The Buddy Holly Story. They discuss whether or not it's a good idea to portray a person's life in such a matter-of-fact way, whether this might be a documentary or not and what makes for a good biopic. They also discuss the obvious elephant in the room - Gary Busey.

This week, Rachel picks a movie and makes herself unavailable when we start recording the episode about the movie. Andrew, Breki and Toerag suspect this might be her payback for having forced her to watch all the violent, hateful, surprisingly often Nazi-themed movies we've seen of late.

It's time to talk about Maleficent, so I crossed the streams and brought two returning guests back. For the first time on a show together; Toerag and Matt Dusenbury! [caption id="attachment_43258" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Angelina Jolie in ... Coat?![/caption]
