    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the host of Turner Classic Movies and all round movie head BEN MANKIEWICZ!

    TCM is a channel that some non-US folk might not be familiar with, but for those who are it's an institution. Ben is a long term host at the channel, but has a huge amount of dealings elsewhere in the cinematic universe too. If that hasn't hooked you in, you might be keen to learn he is the grandson of the screenwriter of Citizen Kane who was the subject of the fairly recent movie 'Mank'. So you're in safe hands right here, essentially. Ben has a ton to say about a lot of movies that haven't been explored that much on the podcast, but it's also really interesting to hear about TCM and how it's affected his own life. A really fascinating guest for a truly engaging episode - enjoy!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the hilarious comic, sketco and podcaster EMMA DORAN!

    Transmitting from the bedroom office, this is a lovely cosy episode with someone who most certainly brings the funny and curates a really warm, comfortable vibe in the FTBBW labs. Emma delivers a whole gang of wit and wisdom on all things cinematic and existential including lessons learned from podcasting with her daughter, dad bouquets, room altars, moth fairies, and the fine line between anger and passion. And how it can be helpful sometimes to remind yourself and whoever you're with that it's only a film. It's only a film. ENJOY!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the brillant actor, music maker and film maker ALEX WOLFF!

    As a quick short-hand for regular listeners of the podcast who want a quick face to a name, Alex played Peter in FTBBW classic Hereditary (the whole episode is practically built on a foundation of spoilers so watch that first if it's on your "to do" list!). However, Alex is known for so much more! You might know him from The Naked Brothers Band in a younger time, or perhaps more recently A Quiet Place: Day One, or the Jumanji updates. It is a genuine pleasure to know that he's a total film nerd and it's a really fun and funny hang with these two - pure joy and as said, frequent Hereditary spoilers (but context clues will help you if you don't know the film or are not a horror fan). Enjoy! You will!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the glorious, the genius singer, host, producer, DJ and so much more MICHELLE VISAGE!

    What a rare treat - this is a pure delight of an episode with someone who doesn't just do the rounds with any old podcast, folks... Michelle has been absurdly busy grinding on the music and media circuit for a good amount of years, chances are you might be familiar from her time on Rupaul's Drag Race and the various iterations, but there are so many strings to her bow. You're about to hear a delicious one with someone who's a consumate pro in what she does, and you should most certainly follow Michelle and all future and related projects forthwith! Enjoy!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the absolute film-making legend JASON REITMAN!

    Jason's cinematic output over the last 20 years or more is undeniable, and you will have no doubt seen AT LEAST one of his movies and loved it. Maybe quoted it. Maybe re-enacted a scene or two... It's a fabulous thing then to hear this chat with he and Brett and confirm that Jason is indeed every single bit as film nerdy as you would have hoped. But also genuinely entertaining - these worlds are not mutually exclusive! It's a pleasure to hear about all the elements that make up who Jason is, including literally growing up on the Warner Brothers lot, loving comedians, depicting the pleasure of work in films, community of cinema, his father Ivan (some incredible history you'll hear there), surrender, James Acaster, and among so much more, the choreography and design of his new film Saturday Night! Oh and bonus shout to the Prince Charles Cinema too. A delight of an episode, you shall enjoy.

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the fabulous comic PAT BURTSCHER!

    Pat is someone with whom Brett shares many years of companionship and experience in the comedy world, and for those unfamiliar, is a lovely person indeed. It's a wide and varied one and a true joy, nice and silly and also heartfelt when the times come. You'll hear about DMT, soundsystems, he and Brett's history on the circuit, trailers, comedic yelling, shared comedic trauma therapy via movies and Boy Amelie! Super fun. ENJOY!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the awesome comic, writer and podcaster EMILY HELLER!

    Emily's a pro at the podcast game so you know you're in the safest of hands with this episode, as she and Brett catch up on all things micro to macro, minor to major and minimal to maximal. Always fun though, as they encounter the power lines of being on stage at a variety of events, adult situations backgrounded by cartoons, writing room process, the Indian diaspora, transgressive comedies and the degradation of time, relationships, and an entire bunch in between. Oure enjoyment of the highest order, you'll love it!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the very hilarious and truly engaging comic and actor PHIL WANG!

    An absolute delight of a chatty catchup here with Brett and Phil, which - at time of publishing - comes in very hot on the heels of Phil's Netflix special 'Wang In There, Baby'. Phil is a super friendly and warm presence and it's really nice to hear the cinematic behind the scenes of his life, including his time on the latest Wonka movie, revengey vs forgivey, Batman theories, horror hate, big scary Malaysian houses, the many shades of the Cockney geezer accent guvnor, being an engineer, nepo superstars and kung fu parents (there's your Netflix cartoon right there). Awesome from start to end. You shall enjoy. Peep the special too eh!

    (quick note - if you haven't seen All Of Us Strangers and intend to, careful when it comes up - potential spoilers lie within - you're looking at around the 29:30 mark for around 90 seconds)

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the excellent actor who - for those less familiar - played Pacey in Dawson's Creek, it's JOSHUA JACKSON!

    Of course, it would be unfair to limit his notoreity to a single character in one show, but for many of us it was a massive TV event in a time when the media landscape and viewing habits were simply very different to what they are now, so pretty much we all saw it! If your knowledge of him were to end there, well, you'll be happy to know he's been entirely busy since and remains a pure ray of light. This episode rules, and Joshua shows up wonderfully. It handles the funny, the serious, and the existential, all with grace and energy, and will leave you wanting to repeat the whole thing when you get to the end. Topics in the hopper include timeframes as a younger person, positive homesickness, Vancouver, the tough and weird experience of being so famous so young, love of the longform series, having kids and five year plans? Nahhh... Awesome stuff. You shall enjoy. I don't wanna wait EITHER!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the Chicago-originating rapper, producer, podcaster, writer and much more - it's OPEN MIKE EAGLE!

    As Brett mentions in the intro and podcast, I (producer Buddy Peace) am a huge fan of Mike's (since the very early 20teens, maybe earlier?), and will gladly push his work to anyone in the safe knowledge they will enjoy it and in turn become very big fans too. So it's a joy to have his presence here with Brett, talking about all things film, comedy and music in the same place. They get along gloriously from jump, and you'll love it - a perfect fireside chat type ep, with some awesomely fun goodies including bathroom stuff and plumbing (no spoils), hotel mornings and protocol, how bad films happen, experiences in making TV shows, cafe death mirages and no horrors please! Listen to all Mike's insanely fresh music linked below, listen to his podcast series 'What Had Happened Was' (series-long interviews recently featuring Questlove), and explore all the related goings on. Mike is an incredible rapper, who has relations to the almight Project Blowed collective in LA, and works with so many of the best "otherground" (?) artists in the game - please do check him out if you're even halfway in on Hip Hop music. You'll love him. ENJOY!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the hilarious writer, comic and actor HEIDI GARDNER!

    Heidi is well versed in the world of Saturday Night Live, an institution hugely loved and regarded in the US but not amazingly well known in the UK. So it's a lovely thing to hear some behind the scenes chat from someone so woven into the tapestry of it, for anyone who's a long term fan or someone less familiar. Of course the chat goes so much further, with her hairdressing history, cats, process, monologues, threatening coaches of the mind, videos, watching horrors too young and the Scared Straight model of film education. Tons to enjoy! Which you shall!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with let's just say it like it is, national treasure, DAVID MORRISSEY!

    David is a true champ in film and TV, with a varied and awesome collection of roles in the industry and a whole bunch on the horizon too... As such, David knows what's what, as you will hear clearly on this fantastic and fun episode with a ton of the usual behind the scenes goodness - and as always, not just the studio scenes. It's continually amazing how interlinked the cinematic and let's say 'real' worlds are, and how they reflect and work with how our own heads and imaginations do. This episode is more evidence of how powerful it all is and how meaningful it can all be. ENJOY!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the extremely funny comic, podcaster, actor and writer PHIL ELLIS!

    Phil joins Brett from a small window of non-Fringe time during his stint up in Edinburgh performing his 'Come On And Take The Rest Of Me' show - and the ep is a delight, as Phil chimes in on all sorts including Preston origins, Dad's movie recommendations, old fashioned horror, cat suits, auditions and his very tricky Red Dwarf experience, and all things Fringe and how one copes with such a thing. It's a really lovely one, and you'll enjoy this one for sure - have fun!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the excellent and prolific filmmaker JAMES WAN!

    A long-time-coming type episode featuring a lovely chat with the excellent maker of extremely scary movies! This episode rates low on scares though, you might be happy to know, and what it swerves on the scare-scale it more than makes up for in good time convo. In this one it's interesting to hear so much from the person who forms such a big piece of the puzzle of modern horror, and get a real insight into what it takes to create the movies AND make huge blockbusters too. Several sides of the coins that we don't always get to see or hear from. Oh and creepy dolls! So please, take a comfy seat or indeed adopt a lying position while enjoying this fabulous episode.

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the absolute legend actor CHIWETEL EJIOFOR!

    What a treat for you right here... If you are viewing this synopsis, you will be either a long term listener or new recruit to the podcast, but the common factor in both is that you will surely have a decent interest in film. Well Chiwetel is someone who will have featured on your radar for certain at some point, and likely to have featured in at least one of your favourite films. And it turns out that he's a goddamn delight of a guest! So it goes without saying, you will have a wonderful time with this episode (and hear some amazing behind the scenes science of some VERY key scenes and films...). Peep the filmography and look out for Rob Peace, his new film too!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the excellent comic, writer and podcaster SARA BARRON!

    Sara swoops in from the first moment and ensures that this episode is a level 10 throughout - a thoroughly entertaining ride from beginning to end, as we hear about so much about (but not limited to) films and how they've affected Sara's life. A timely reflection on Edinburgh Fringe up top too, which will appeal to everyone about to visit or perform there, and if you're familiar with Sara's podcasting output, you can also expect a healthy amount of relationship goodies too. So much to enjoy and appreciate!

    A lovely episode of the 'fireside chat' variety with the friendly and fun Garrett, in which we get to find out a lot about the person behind a TON of Edinburgh Fringe shows, and podcasts and productions of all kinds, but also a good amount about what floats Garrett's cinematic boat, theatre vs comedy, Airfix modelcraft, space and the space race, searing hot takes on Star Wars (some of which might surprise you), and so much more.

This episode is just an absolute unmitigated joy from start to end, and while a ton of ground gets covered, it's just good times throughout and a completely safe bet.
