by Jay Cluitt · January 8, 2019 · Featured, LAMBcast, Podcasts · No Comments

2018 is over, but can a year really be said to have ended until the Lambcast posts its best of that year podcast? Whether you say yes or no, the point is here’s that show.

Jay and Richard were joined by Audrey, Courtney and Nick to not only rank their top films of the year but also discuss the cinema vs streaming debate and give some tips and tricks on how best to fall asleep in the cinema. Also thanks to Le Anne, Vern, David, Tony, Aaron, Amanda, Rebecca and Jessica for contributing their voicemail recordings.
