IT'S SPOOKY SEASON!!!!
Well, it isn't any more, but we're not good with Linear time so we recorded our Halloween special on Halloween itself. This week we're talking about the media that we find scariest. The most horrendous, bone chilling things that keep us up at night.
But before that, we discussed:

Dune
Metroid Dread
Verotika
Oddworld SoulStorm

59: Invasion Of The Pod People

Modern Escapism

10/28/21 • 112 min

They say there's nothing original in this world and this week, we're gonna prove it. We're talking shameless, unoriginal, unmitigated rip offs. Media that is just obviously taking from something more popular/better/older.
But before that we talked about:

Venom 2
Dune
Hell Let Loose
The Morning Show
French Dispatch

66: Get Your Winslets Out

Modern Escapism

12/16/21 • 138 min

The good things in life are always good... right?
Not always. Something you THINK they're good. Or you remember them as being better as what they were. You just put those Rose Tinted Glasses on and you enjoy the dopamine memories.
But what if you're wrong? Well this week, we're talking about the things people look at through rose tinted glasses. It gets heated.
But before that, we discussed:

Loop Hero
The Game Awards 2021
Halo Infinite
Divinity: Original Sin

70: ME vs Sequelisers

Modern Escapism

01/27/22 • 138 min

This week we're joined by the titans of movie podcasting, the Sequelisers! Jack Chambers and Tim Maytom take a little break from their constant brilliance to join us for much chat, many japes and a lot of laughs.
As is tradition, the guest has picked the subject, so this week we're talking about film directors who've made an impact but have LESS THAN 5 FILMS to their name. It was a tricky one to nail down, but we all came up with some EXCELLENT examples.
Before all that, though, we discussed:

Arcane
Yellowjackets
August 32nd On Earth
Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart
The Father
Midnight Asia

48: Robot Wars

Modern Escapism

08/12/21 • 134 min

Some say that the robots will rise up and take over the world. But others, correctly, love robots, because robots are cool as f**k and we should all be amazed by them.
This week, we're talking about our favourite robots in media across TV and film.
But before all that, we discussed:

The Suicide Squad
Days Gone
Sons Of Sam
Utopia
Death's Door

Modern Escapism

11/11/21 • 141 min

When most people talk about Video games they talk about the graphics, gameplay or story. But no one really talks about the eldritch art of videogame soundtracks. Well this week, we've roped in an expert to help us talk about them, famed composer, producer and all round good egg, Ross Tregenza who has worked on games such as Timesplitters 2, Cyberpunk 2077 and Deathloop, to name a few.
But before that, we discussed:

Tormented Souls
The Last Of Us Part 2
The Harder They Fall
Last Night In Soho
The Lost Boys

You can check out Ross' work over on his website: www.rosstregenza.com

This week we're talking about One & Done, the media we've experienced that we adored but never ever want to watch, play or listen to again. Be they horrifying, depressing or harrowing, we break down our favourites.
Before all that, we discussed:

It's time. You've all been asking for it and it's finally time to talk about it.
THE. BEST. BADDIES.
