Folks on Film is a chat show about parenting and movies.
Every episode, Sam and another dad watch a movie with a dad in it. Then, they come together and use the film's depiction of fatherhood as a way to talk about their own dadding experiences and big-boy feelings.
This show is produced for 94.9 MainFM on Djarra country, Castlemaine, Victoria.
In the future, the show will include mums. This podcast is playing catch-up to the radio broadcasts, and mums come into it at after about 20 episodes.
Be excellent to each other.

This was first broadcast July 6th 2025, on MainFM in Castlemaine, Victoria.
In this episode of the show, Sam sits down with Tim (frontman for You Am I, Hard-Ons, and North Melbourne tragic), about what we can learn about dadding and parenting from the 1980 Best Picture Oscar winner, Ordinary People. Using the trials and tribulations of Calvin and family as their jumping off point, the dads chat about grief, worrying about our kids, and dadding while in the public eye.
Don't come expecting definitive answers or paths to parenting greatness. This is just two ordinary, imperfect dads getting real and having a chat.
It should be (extra)ordinary.
