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.

This was first broadcast April 13th, 2025, on MainFM in Castlemaine, Victoria.
In this episode of the show, Sam sits down with Andrew (a good human and known to his mates as Noonge), about what we can learn about dadding from Matthew McConnaughey in gritty real-life crime drama, White Boy Rick. Amongst the laughs, the dads talk about our role as protector, how to let go of the past and let our kids grow up, and the difficulty of doing what's right for our kids even when they'll hate us for it.
Don't come expecting definitive answers or paths to parenting greatness. This is just two ordinary, imperfect dads getting real and having a chat.
Because every day is McConnaughday.
