    LAMBCAST #406: BEST TV OF 2017

    The year is almost over, so it’s time to take a look back at the past twelve months and determine exactly what we enjoyed and despised. We have to do this, it is decreed by the powers that be, there’s no way around it, but we’re sticking it to the man this week by not doing movies – NO! – we’re talking TV.

    Jay was joined by Robert, Nikhat, Tony and Lackey to rank their top TV of 2017. Thanks...

    LAMBCAST #405: THE LAST JEDI

    Yep, just like all the other shows out there, we’re talking about The Last Jedi, but wait, come back, this is not going to go the way you think!

    Jay was joined by Star Wars super-fans Heather Baxendale, Jeanette Ward, Matthew Stewart and MovieRob, as well as a brief appearance from Kristen Lopez, to porg-out on The Last Jedi. There’s spoiler-free thoughts and a giant spoiler-filled section...

    LAMBCAST #404: RIAN JOHNSON-A-THON

    The Last Jedi is out today, and whilst that’s the topic of next week’s show, this week we’re gearing up to it by looking at its director, Rian Johnson, and his previous three films.

    Jay Cluitt was joined by Richard Kirkham, Chris Staron and Daniel Lackey to discuss Brick, The Brothers Bloom and Looper, as well as predict what Johnson will possibly do with a Star Wars...

    LAMBCAST #403: MOTM DIE HARD

    Ho Ho Ho! It’s December, and the holiday season is in full swing, so it’s time for our latest Christmas-special Movie of the Month, and really what could be more festive than terrorists taking over a skyscraper full of hostages?

    That’s right, it’s time to grab your biggest teddy bear, put on your filthiest undershirt, remove your shoes and make fists with your toes because we’re jumping off the roof...

    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 #401: JUSTICE LEAGUE

    Avengers, assemb- what? Oh, wrong franchise, sorry.

    We’re taking a break from our Marvel idolising this week to take a look at the latest offering from the DC Expanded Universe, Justice League, a film fraught with production difficulties and the so-called “DC Curse”. Jay was joined by Robert Zerbe, Jeanette Ward, Richard Kirkham and Howard Casner to compare the film to our expectations, dissect some of the...

    Vote for the James Bond Draft!

    For part of the recent 400th Lambcast Spectacular we held a mini James Bond Draft, and now it’s time to vote for the winner! Dylan, Richard and Jay all competed to build the best trio of James Bond movies. You can vote at the bottom, but first let’s look at the teams:

    Dylan’s Team: Skyfall, Licence to Kill, A View To A Kill

    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...

    LAMBCAST #399: THOR RAGNAROK

    It may not be the 400th episode just yet, but that doesn’t mean it’s not time to party! Thor’s back for his third standalone outing, and it’s possibly the craziest Marvel movie to date.

    Jay was joined by JD Duran, DJ Valentine, Jeanette Ward and Simon Appleton to battle it out in the arena over whether Thor: Ragnarok is just too funny, and whether anyone other than Jeff Goldblum actually needed...

    LAMBCAST #398: TAIKA WAITITI DIRECTOR RETROSPECTIVE

    With the release of Thor: Ragnarok just around the corner (or in some countries, almost two weeks ago) this week on the Lambcast we’re taking a closer look at its director, Taika Waititi, and the films he made before helming a blockbuster. That’s right, it’s time for the Taika Waititi Director Retrospective!

    Jay is back from his honeymoon and completely out of practise at podcast hosting, but it’s...

    LAMBCAST #393 KINGSMAN: THE GOLDEN CIRCLE

    Just because summer is over doesn’t mean we’re going to stop talking about big summer-type movies, which is exactly what we’ve got in store for you this week with the release of Kingsman: The Golden Circle.

    Getting suited and booted to join Jay in the discussion of Matthew Vaughn’s follow-up to the surprise 2014 hit are Rebecca Sharp, Jeanette Ward, Nikhat Zhara and Bubbawheat.
