  • Blockbuster movies. They might be commonplace now but before the MCU, Harry Potter, Avatar and even Star Wars, a young Steven Spielberg changed the face of cinema forever with the aid of a terrifying toothy menace that would keep people out of the water for years to come! That’s right, in the summer of '75 the release of JAWS wowed, astounded and instilled fear in equal measures. Now, in time for the current cinema rerelease, The Outta Timers invite you to experience JAWS once again for the first time!

    This is not a dvd commentary, this is not a dry technical analysis, it’s simply a couple of Bluegills and Tommycocks donning their life jackets and marvelling at location shoots, drunken sailors and wardrobes! So get your snacks, get comfy and prepare to spend the next two hours with Chief & Ben as they take you on an audio experience for the ages!
