  • Wake in Fright- Decades 2- The 1970s
    Jul 4 2025

    Welcome to the Yabba, you'll have a drink...

    Billy and Sheridan return for a discussion of the 1970s kicked off with 'Wake in Fright'. Nearly lost, it is now a classic of 'Ozploitation'.

    We discuss the transition from the political and social optimism of the 60s to the chaos and nihilism of the 70s, the definitions of 'horror' and 'auteur', the insecurity and cruelty of the decade, punk, alcohol, toxic masculinity and much more.

    I hope you enjoy it.

  • The Naked Island - Decades 1
    Jun 13 2025

    Hello, Jamie here.

    This is the first in a three part series called 'Decades'. The idea is simple. Returning guests Sheridan Seraphin and Billy Stanton join me to highlight one film from a specific decade (luckily, Sheridan picked the 1960s, I choice the 70s and Billy choice the 80s)In this episode Sheridan takes the lead talking about the film 'The Naked Island' directed by Kaneto Shindo. It's great and I'm very grateful to Sheridan for bringing him to the podcast.

    Sheridan's short film 'Finished Sympathy' will be participating at the Walthamstow International Film Festival, and it's a pretty much perfect short.

    Billy's festival, NOLI https://filmfreeway.com/NoliTheTooLongTooDifficultTooRawShortFilmFestival is on Freeway right now. https://nolishortfilmfestival.wordpress.com/ It's great!

    My strange short film 'Intimate Communications'(a film for all of us who have ever needed to scream) will be screened at the Kino Short Film Open Mic Night on the 17th of June. https://www.kinoshortfilm.com/short-film-openmicIt's at the Strongroom Bar near Liverpool Street Station. Doors at 7pm. It's a great evening with a number of short films (so if you don't like mine that's fine!)

    Hope to see you there. More info here- https://fb.me/e/8489eh6wwTickets here -https://dice.fm/partner/dice/event/v3adad-short-film-open-mic-17th-jun-strongroom-bar-london-tickets?
