“Sadly not the same since Sam Delaney left, what worked so well was the dynamic between Sam &
Bruce. Bruce had the information on the films and Sam was incredibly funny. With Sam departing so has the comedy sadly.”

“Only started this podcast this week and started with the Tango & Cash episode. Very very funny. Have listened to new and old episodes (Sam and now James are excellent co hosts).
The Jack Palance impression (Young Guns) has my sides hurting.
Keep up the great work, gents!”

“If you loved the 80s - and let’s face it why wouldn’t you? Listen to this, the only retro 80s film and TV podcast that matters. And then fast forward into the 90s or go further back in time to the 70s by signing up to the Pirate Video Crew. You know it makes sense”

“Not nearly as good without Sam Delaney. Bruce’s new co-host James doesn’t really contribute much, whereas Sam very much had his own opinions, and kept Bruce from straying from “encyclopaedic” to “self indulgent”.”

“Another cracker of an episode for Batman! 100% agree that Michael Keaton is the best Batman & Marvel villain.”

“I only discovered this podcast a few weeks ago and I’ve smashed through them all already. A great 80s podcast where two hilarious 40 something cockney wide boys review all the 80s movies they liked as kids.
Not only are they very funny they genuinely love the movies they review. They also...”Read full review »

“So many good films getting covered here. I treat this like a book club: see which film they talk about> watch it then listen to the episode and it’s a delight. Although I nearly gave this fewer stars because Delaney doesn’t like Big Trouble In Little China. Kurt Russell’s finest performance”

“No idea what they’re on about with 75% of these films but each episode’s been good for a laugh nonetheless.
The Predator episode brought me back to all those 80’s action films my dad and brothers would spend hours watching when I was a kid in the 90s. Would love a bit if Van Damme in Babylon.”

Irreverent but affectionate film reviews and fantastically silly stories and reminisces from the 2 likeable and knowledgeable hosts.

“Really love this podcast, it’s really funny and covers some great movies.
It’s also responsible for introducing the phrase “I see you’ve had some training, Mayonnaise” into regular use between me and my mate, which can only be a good thing.
Keep up the good work fellas.”

“Like the chat and rapport, especially being a TFTM fan.
Obviously early days so imagine format will evolve over time, sometimes can’t tell if it’s going full comedy/piss take or serious.
Enjoying it, keep it up chaps!”

“Love Sam Delaney. One of the most genuinely engaging and entertaining journalists who I could listen to all day..
Could no longer support the toxicity of his co-presenter on another pod, so this gives me a great fix of his anecdotal memories of growing up through the 80s. Quality stuff 👌🏻”

“If you’re 40+ in years, you’ll get it. The cultural references, the gags, the whole lot. Film reviews that leave you feeling happy and reminiscent about your youth.
If you’re not in this age bracket you’ll still get it but you have so much more of your life left in front of you, you jammy gits.”
