Über diesen Titel

Folks on Film is a chat show about parenting and movies.


Every episode, Sam and another dad watch a movie with a dad in it. Then, they come together and use the film's depiction of fatherhood as a way to talk about their own dadding experiences and big-boy feelings.


This show is produced for 94.9 MainFM on Djarra country, Castlemaine, Victoria.


In the future, the show will include mums. This podcast is playing catch-up to the radio broadcasts, and mums come into it at after about 20 episodes.


Be excellent to each other.

  • Chef (with Paul)
    May 6 2026

    This was first broadcast March 1st 2025, on 94.9 MainFM in Castlemaine, Victoria.


    In this episode of the show, Sam sits down with Paul (waste management consultant - although not like in The Sopranos), about what we can learn about dadding and parenting from the 2014 comedy/drama, Chef. Using the film's depiction of fatherhood and family as their jumping-off point, the dads chat about involving ourselves in our kids' lives, walking the fine line between protecting our kids and preparing them for the world, and raising a kid in a bilingual household.


    Don't come expecting definitive answers or paths to parenting greatness. This is just two ordinary, imperfect dads getting real and having a chat.
