The monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. James Adamson is a slightly obsessive armchair fan, giving you his take on the world of cinema. So are his co hosts: James Adamson, his imaginatively named son, and Alan Bayles, a sci fi author, fellow film nerd and fellow Sunderland fan. As well as a look at news, new releases and how we’re fitting in movie watching with our busy exciting lives, we look into classic films we haven't seen yet and overlooked hidden gems you need to see, ask remakes to justify their existence or be wiped from history and offer parole hearings to bad films that need to be remade to fix their flaws.

Issue 42 of the monthly magazine for the discerning film nerd concludes with the Big Conversation, where the Adamsons dig into a topic from the film world in more detail. This month we look at the fine art of making comedy films, why it shouldn't be so much harder than other genres but somehow it is, how tastes in comedy and the economics of comedy films have changed over the years, and whether cancel culture makes it impossible to make great comedies any more.
The other parts of this month's issue are already out now: Double Reel Monthly, The Penalty Shootout Film Quiz and The Features.
