Recorded on the 24th of June 2016, on the day the British 'Brexit' referendum is announced, my friend Kieran and I try to take our minds off this political disaster by talking about our favourite European films.
Along the way we talk Guillermo Del Toro, Pedro Almodavar, Richard Linklater's 'Before' series, Shane Meadows (in particular his film. series 'This is England') as well as reflecting on European trips which include getting sick in Vienna due to in appropriate clothing and how not to talk to women on a trip to Greece.
Expect an undercurrent of frustration throughout.

Along the way we discuss the career of Bruce Willis (and Jared Leto), we also talk about Highlander, get a Chinese-whispers account of the filming of Red 2, we do some impressions, talk about what TV shows we have been watching (I give my opinion on X-Men: Apocalypse) and more.

Along the way we talk about The West Wing, the highs and lows of the career of Will Smith, Hiroshima, a British take on ID4, the possibility of a volcanic eruption in Yellowstone Park, Paul tries (and fails) to do Pullsman's 4th of July speech, we sing a little (The Offspring!
