Six LAMB members have submitted films for championing, and whichever one wins the poll will have a Lambcast episode dedicated to it! The poll is at the bottom of the page, but first here are the nominees:
Christmas in Connecticut (1945) [Rachel Wagner, Rachel’s...
Technical issues have resulted in the loss of the original post that was scheduled to be published. That means you are now getting a second hand look at the podcast, written on the fly, while the author is fleeing retina scanning spiderbots that are chasing him.
Bubbawheat is the champion of this 2002 collaboration between Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise. He takes over hosting duties and leads us through a discussion of...
This week we get back to talking about new movies, and it is the time of the year that the cream begins to rise to the top. Director Alexander Payne is a two time Academy Award winning screenwriter, and a three time directing nominee, so when he shows up with a new film, it seems likely to be talked about in the awards season. “The Holdovers” features a cranky history teacher at a remote prep school who is forced to remain on...
The poll will be open for the month of November. Be sure to vote for you favorite slate of films, and go and watch all of the movies you haven’t seen yet from these lists. You will be glad you did.

Another world, another time, in the age of wonder. A thousand years ago, this land was green and good… a lot of fantasy stories start along these lines. Something that was good has been lost and must be found, or something evil is threatening something good. Those somethings often come in the form of dragons, wizards or monsters (and sometimes even a goblin king). This week on the Lambcast, we decided to go to an era of classic fantasy...
It’s time to announce the next Movie of the Month winner! This month there were only three nominated films, and the poll is predominantly promoted on the ever-dwindling social media platform formerly known as Twitter, so voting was a little low this month but there’s still a winner! We probably should have seen this coming, as for November 2023 we’ll be discussing… Minority...
In October, everyone’s thoughts turn to mayhem as the horror movie season peaks with with Halloween on October 31. We had our MOTM a couple of weeks ago, but that did not satisfy our need for blood. Like culture vampires, the Lambcast goes in search of horror films in all the bad places.
The rules were simple, everyone had to bring five films to the discussion, one in each of five sub-genres of horror. Nicole Ayers goes...
Most people anticipate a new Martin Scorsese movie, the way an eight year old looks forward to Christmas. We can hardly stand the time it takes to arrive, we want to shake the packages under the tree, and we hope that there will be joy when the gift is opened. Sometimes parents learn that the box is the bigger attraction than what was inside. Is that what happened with “Killers of the Flower Moon? Did Santa deliver, or did we get some...

In a surprise upset, a Comedy/Horror film won the MOTM Poll. and despite calls to the Secretary of State in the Voting Districts, the count was confirmed. “Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein” joins a list of more gruesome fare as the star of our annual Episode devoted to a Halloween Horror Icon.
James Wilson of Blogging by Cinema Light, as the champion of the film. leads a discussion of this movie, delving into...
This Decade Lookback Show is actually looking back a decade. We get in our time traveling Blu-Ray player and visit the films of 2013. A day before recording, three guests had to drop out, but that did not prevent a wide assortment of films from being included. The Pineapple Kiosk rule was invoked only once in the course of the show.
Todd Liebenow felt that ten years was not long enough to forget some films, so his list consists...
November is covered with two new films to be included on the Lambcast: The Holdovers and Napoleon. For December there are many choices and the Community is going to give us their input on which two to include. We will still have the MOTM and a specialty show but when it comes to new films, your choice is going to determine the Conversation. The schedule for November and December will reach your mailbox after this vote is concluded....
