Sam and Boris love films, TV, music and every form of culture you can name. The thing is that Sam has seemingly seen and experienced way more of it. Every time Sam finds out that Boris has no idea about a piece of media Sam thinks everyone knows about, Sam simply cannot contain his amazement. The two of them have decided to share (in podcast form) their journeys through and encounters with culture that one or both of them may be unfamiliar with. Their adventures will consist of discussion, analysis, trivia and reconsidering what really makes a piece of media culturally significant. You can look forward to hearing examples of their unorthodox senses of humour, love of completely useless information and capacity to deliver endless hot takes. To paraphrase Darth Vader - "They would be honoured if you would join them..." (hopefully that's one they've both seen).

  • 25: Greta Gerwig's Little Women - a (Re)Encounter
    Oct 8 2026
    This time, our podcasting duo is joined by a very special guest to discuss a film based on a book, which is near and dear to her heart - but is this film just as beloved? Sam and Boris are joined by none other than Jenni Hallam, a.k.a. Sam's lovely mother to talk about the 2019 screen adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's seminal novel Little Women, which we find out this episode is only one in a series of books focusing on the beloved March sisters. The trio talk about the casting choices, the film and the book's enduring popularity as well as the nature of adapting page to screen - some of their opinions may surprise you. Be sure to tune in and let us know what you thought of the episode or if you had(n't) seen the film before - we promise not to be as judgemental as Aunt March!

  • 24: The Lives of Others (Das Leben der Anderen) - a (Re)Encounter
    Jul 14 2026
    It seems almost criminal that we haven't reviewed a German film yet, but that changes today! Das Leben der Anderen or The Lives of Others is a small-budget historical drama film from 2006 that made huge waves with its international release and the awards it received the world over. Together, Boris and Sam discuss if the film is worth all the hype, and examine their individual relationships with the film and the history it takes so much care to depict authentically. From a pocket summary of the history of East Germany to countless mentions of Tatort, the hosting duo will use their patented process to inject both humour and research into a spirited discussion about a truly landmark example of modern German cinema. Don't forget to share and get involved on social media - unlike the Stasi we promise we won't do anything shady with your contributions!

  • 23: AM - a (Re)Encounter
    May 19 2026
    For their third album review, Sam and Boris return to a simpler time when their biggest questions were regarding their school grades, weekend parties and university choices. This time, our hosting duo is taking a look at the fifth studio album of the Sheffield-based Arctic Monkeys, AM. The two hosts discuss the importance of this album and how it found such mainstream success, the history of the group and, of course, their own personal connections to this cultural reset moment felt across the UK and the world at large. Don't miss their discussion about their favourite and least-liked songs, music video ideas and what influences can be heard on AM. You will want to know, so snap out of that daily daze and listen to this episode - mad sounds included.
