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.

  1. All Episodes
  2. Misery

Jan 14, 2026

Welcome to 2026 everythings awful lets go home.

Jim spends this week on two constants in life, Taxes and Chocolates. Elton gets very Brigerton with a clumsy phesant, Darren tries to decipher the Foundation TV show through the works of Scatman John and Lee nutritionally regrets showing solidarity with his wifes new diet

Then after a brief bit of feedback its on to this weeks film. 

Gasp in wonder as we manage to review the Rob Reiner, Stephen King classic Misery, through the many detours into fandom entitlement, stalking, Stranger Things secret episodes, Mass Effect 3 and Bricktop from Snatch... I would suggest that it'd make sense if you listen to it, but alas I can't guarantee that.
