(Re) Encounters

Sam and Boris love films, books, TV, music and every form of culture you can name. The thing is that Sam has seemingly seen and experienced way more of it. Every time Sam finds out that Boris has no idea about a piece of media Sam thinks everyone knows about, Sam simply cannot contain his amazement. The two of them have decided to share (in podcast form) their journeys through and encounters with culture that one or both of them may be unfamiliar with. Their adventures will consist of discussion, analysis, trivia and reconsidering what really makes a piece of media culturally significant. You can look forward to hearing examples of their unorthodox senses of humour, love of completely useless information and capacity to deliver endless hot takes. To paraphrase Darth Vader - "They would be honoured if you would join them..." (hopefully that's one they've both seen).

14: The Last Airbender - a (Re)Encounter

Water, Earth, Fire, Air - all combined to create a disaster of a film, which could have been great! Well, at least we eventually got the Netflix live-action version to rewrite the past wrongs. But that still doesn't mean Boris can't suffer the pain Sam did when watching M. Night Shyamalan's 2010 film The Last Airbender when it originally came out. However, it ended up being too much for Boris as a lover of the original Avatar: The Last Airbender cartoon - so the hosting duo called upon long-time listener and avid fan of the animated series, Emma Sophie Jahns to make the watching experience more manageable. If you've missed Boris and Sam slamming and ripping a piece of media to shreds, then get ready for one wild ride - not even Emma's attempts at finding a silver lining can change the tides of negative opinions from both our hosts and the wider viewing public.
