Two brothers from Australia started a podcast and somehow people still listen. We break down movies, tv shows and even the odd video game. We guide you in what to see or avoid or should watch immediately. Two normal guys from Australia talking about entertainment.... Sounds good right? Wrong! But you should listen anyway....

You are not mistaken yes we have dropped a new episode. We come back with a internet senstation on Amazon Prime Saltburn. It did the rounds on the internet for a specific reason, but is it any good? Let two idiots fumble their way to answering that very question.

We have been away for so long and we are sorry. Some major changes have happened in our lives and yes this was recorded before all that happened but it was a bigger impact than we ever thought. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Mars Attacks/Bloodwork/Tim Burton Rant
#125
12/06/2022

Hardly Tv History - Breaking Bad/Ozark
#34
11/15/2022

The Matrix Resurrections
#124
11/06/2022

The first Matrix was a masterpiece but I think everyone agrees they slowly got worse with each movie. With the newest instalment coming out 20 years after the original it has to be better right? Right?

Hardly Tv History - The Good Place / Upload
#32

Ghostbusters Afterlife
#121
07/10/2022

We recorded this episode a long time ago back when it came out and well.... I forgot about it. So after being busy with life and work we did not record an episode so lucky I had this sitting in the bank. Who you gonna call and all that jazz. Ghostbuster Afterlife review appears. 


The Killing of a Sacred Dear/Doctor Strange 2
#120
06/05/2022

This episode we move away from traditional movies and tackle a lesser known movie......well one of them is. The Killing of a Sacred Dear has some very well known faces but in very different roles. 

Oh and the 45.00 minute mark we talk about Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.

Does an Indie film hold up against a Marvel Blockbuster?

Escape rooms are all the rage at the moment but a horror movie version, it has to be good right?


Hardly TV History - Seinfeld/Arrested Development
#28
04/02/2022

The Batman
#118
03/20/2022

Did you really expect us not to review this movie? Sure we saw it opening night and sure this is really late but we got it out eventually.

We take a trip the mystical world of Japan joined by friend of the show Dani. We check out some movies and then have some amazing tips about what to do and see in Japan when we can get back there. This episode did not want to be made, it has been a nightmare to edit as we had power drop outs, internet problem, audio issues and lagging problems. Frankly I am glad to see the back of it but if I have done my job correctly you should not even notice.... mini rant over. Enjoy - Jake

#110
10/21/2021

So this started off as individual episodes of Fear Street but we honestly didn't want to clog your or our feed with Fear street. So like the big bad guy from Stranger Things (This will make sense if you listen), we decided to merge this into one GIANT Episode. Was it worth it? Was watching 3 movies from Netflix worth this time and dedication? Listen to find out.  This starts off our Horror Movie Run just in time for Halloween so if you like to be scared we will have some options for you.
