Welcome to the home page of The Black Dog Podcast.

Join Lee, Darren, Jim and Elton as they waffle, wonder and jabber on about film, geek news, video games and any other tangential rubbish that springs to mind. Before reviewing a movie from yesteryear removing either the Rose-Tinted Specs or a Shit-Covered Goggles, to see if the film was really as good (or bad) as popular opinion would have you believe.

This week Jim goes down the allotment and does unspeakable things with a sweet potato. Elton watches a unique take on couples therapy with Together, Darren reveals what we already knew about him playing Star Trek Voyager (see episode 257 for details) and Lee gleefully enjoys Rachel McAdams torturing a tech bro on an island in Sam Raimis Get Help.

Then after some Primer feedback which is almost as confusing as the original film we move on to this weeks film and the start of SPAAAAACE season.

Brad Pitt looks out a window and narrates being sad in space in Ad Astra.

Oh and do enjoy an on air production meeting as we try to pick the next film...
