The twelfth episode of The Media By Us pan-media podcast, Talkie Talk.

In this episode, we have Brent, Chris, TJ and David discuss last week’s homework (Filth), their Watchlists, some Breezy on the Streets (Trailers, returning TV, etc.) before going into the main topic (another Facebook suggestion!): checking what movie or TV show you mentally associate with an actor or actress. Like, who is Idris Elba to you? – Luther? Stringer Bell? That branch manager for two episodes of The Office? Shooter McGavin? A psychologically revealing episode this week.

The tenth episode of The Media By Us pan-media podcast, Talkie Talk.

In this episode, we have Brent, Chris, TJ and David discuss their Watchlist/Playlist, some brand new trailers debuting (trailers!) before going into the main topic: movies with a “rotten”  rating (<50%) on Rotten Tomatoes, that are worth watching. Sometimes, RT’s ratings give short shrift to some worthwhile movies (or we just like it anyway… and can’t explain it).

We go through genres and movies that you shouldn’t let your media-Oracle filter out from your viewing Obelisk. So to speak.
