    LAMBCAST #419: AVA DUVERNAY DIRECTOR RETROSPECTIVE

    We’ve held many director retrospectives on the Lambcast but, somewhat unforgivably, we’ve never covered a female director. Well all that changes today, because this week’s show is dedicated to the works of Ava DuVernay.

    To celebrate the release of her latest film, A Wrinkle In Time, Jay was joined by Audrey, Rebecca, Chris and Cameron to look at her documentaries and feature films, half of which are...

    LAMBCAST #416: THE MUMMY (1999) MOTM

    It’s a podcast, what harm even came from listening to a podcast?

    It’s Mother Day’s in the UK this Sunday, and today is International Woman’s Day, so what better time to discuss 1999’s The Mummy? Jay was joined by Audrey Fox, Kristen Lopez, Zoe Rose Smith and Richard Kirkham to talk about the Stephen Sommers’ action-horror reboot in all it’s tomb-raiding, flesh-eating, fez-wearing...

    LAMBCAST #415-2: OSCARS IN REVIEW

    We watched the Oscars, listen to what we thought about it!

    A very tired and poorly Jay was joined by Audrey, Jeanette, Todd and Richard for a brief special discussion on this year’s Oscar ceremony, who won and how we feel about that.

    The show can be found, of course, via iTunes – just do a search for “LAMBcast.” Also, I always post a link to the show on the LAMBcast’s Facebook page, and there’s a player...

    The Movie of the Month for March 2018 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    The votes are in for the next Movie of the Month. The site has been down for a little while so I wasn’t sure if we’d get to actually announce this in time, but fortunately everything is sorted now (thanks Joel!) so normality can resume. As the voting time was therefore a little limited, any of this month’s participants are more than welcome to resubmit their...

    LAMBCAST #402: MUSICAL DRAFT

    The hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiills are aliiiiive with the soooooound of podcasts!

    They said it would never happen – and by “they,” I mean “me,” mainly because I didn’t want to – but due to popular demand the Lambcast has opted for the musical genre to be the subject of its latest draft. Breaking out into song alongside Jay were Howard, Audrey, Todd and newcomer Kami Koren, who all competed to build...

    LAMBCAST #400a: MOTM MY GIRL

    My Girl! My Girl? My Girl! Talkin’ ’bout My Girl!

    My Girl won the Movie of the Month for November, so we covered it as one of the mini segments in the epic 400th Lambcast Extravangaza, but it didn’t feel right to short change the movie like that. To make up for it, Kristen, Audrey and Jay stuck around and recorded this special bonus discussion, to dig a little deeper than we were able to do in...

    LAMBCAST #400: THE 400TH SHOW SPECTACULAR

    So apparently the LAMB celebrated it’s 10th birthday a few weeks ago (October 31st to be exact) but what with all the hubbub around other areas of life it somehow got forgotten. Worry not dear flock, for though it was not technically intended for that celebration we have decided to mark the occasion with what is easily the most ambitious, and ultimately most time-consuming to edit Lambcast show in the history of the LAMB, it’s our...

    With the upcoming release of Disney’s live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast it’s the perfect opportunity for us to delve a little deeper into Disney’s back catalogue and celebrate their contribution to animation over the years, and the best way we know how to do this is with a draft!

    LAMBCAST #362 89TH ACADEMY AWARDS PREDICTIONS

    You may have noticed things have gotten quite Oscar-flavoured around the LAMB recently, and this week that’s spilled out onto the Lambcast too as we take a look at who we think is going to win some of the trophies at this coming Sunday’s celebration of the 89th Academy Awards.

    Jay Cluitt was present but utterly useless as anything other than a host for this feature, but fortunately he was joined by the far more well...
