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 June 8th 2025, on MainFM in Castlemaine, Victoria.
In this episode of the show, you get both hosts, Sam AND Sarah! They're here to talk about what we can learn about parenting from the Aussie sporting comedy, The Merger. It's a movie about country towns, prejudice, opening ourselves up to new experiences, and allowing the village to pitch in when needed to help raise our kids.
Don't come expecting definitive answers or paths to parenting greatness. This is just two ordinary, imperfect parents getting real and having a chat.
Grab your footy beanies and plug yourself in.
