Back To The Matrix
Poditive Spin: The Friendly Fan Club
01/25/22 • 79 min
The Friendly Fan Club reconvenes to take a couple of red pills and discuss some of the biggest questions there are: What is 'Real'? Is Hugo Weaving the GOAT? And were the Matrix sequels really that bad?
Mr A and Mr P sweep through the legacy of one of the most iconic franchises in science-fiction, from its game-changing debut over twenty years ago to its latest chapter - The Matrix: Resurrections. Is it possible the much-maligned sequels may have been misjudged? Without this franchise, would the Marvel Cinematic Universe have ever begun? Free your mind, and find out with us!

What We Talk About When We Talk About Stories (feat. David Faggiani of The EscapeGoat Podcast)
Poditive Spin: The Friendly Fan Club
04/07/23 • 67 min
This month on Poditive Spin, we dissect the ever-growing toxicity of internet fan culture, hoping to discover a healthier approach to film and media criticism.
If you’re an arts fanatic, chances are you’ve gotten involved in your fair share of internet spats and mud-flinging over a creative product (movie, show, book, game,etc).
A question, it seems, every contemporary film buff should ask themselves is: how can we have these conversations in a more positive, constructive manner that doesn’t devolve into tribalism and intransigence?
To help us tackle these big questions, we’re joined in the Friendly Fan Clubhouse by David Faggiani of The EscapeGoat Podcast! Be sure to check that out if you’re shopping for more chats on big questions and cult classic commentary.

It's Lang (and co.) vs Kang the Conqueror!
This month on Poditive Spin we're putting Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania under the microscope...geddit?
While lots of mixed-to-negative spin has already surrounded the movie, we attempt to dissect some of the positives of the MCU's grand opening of Phase Five! Does the future of the Marvel Multiverse look bright? Or are we all just staring at M.O.D.O.K's butt?

The Last of Us - Best Video Game Adaptation Ever?!
Poditive Spin: The Friendly Fan Club
03/24/23 • 68 min
Following the conclusion of HBO’s The Last of Us (Season 1), we discuss the overwhelmingly positive response to both the show and the original video game sensation. Friendly Warning: Spoiler spores galore!
Do we dare believe that the curse of video game adaptations is finally broken?
Have we finally found a zombie (or in this case 'Infected') property that doesn’t leave Patrick cowering behind the sofa?
Have we found a triple-A game that Alex has actually completed within a reasonable timeframe?
Tune in to hear us try and hold onto our independent minds, staying positive in spite of the fungal infection-like algorithms trying to sway us!
Also, be a clicker! As in, click to like our Friendly Fan Club and follow along on our socials.
(But also, don't be a clicker, as in a fungal-faced monstrosity that's possibly one of the most grotesque additions to zombie stories in the history of the genre I MEAN LOOK AT IT!!)
