Hey Return Shoot Rats! This week we’re bringing you another podcast we think you’re going to love. This week it’s Test Pattern hosted by Angus Truskett, who you might remember from our Star Wars special episode, on an episode where he is joined by the movie maestro we love, Alexei.

Make sure you check out Test Pattern (https://open.spotify.com/show/3ELRLbs4rReBtnIWNzbu47) and we’ll see you next week!

“Alexei Toliopoulos — film critic, movie lover, podcaster, comedian and video store lifer — joins Angus Truskett for a conversation about movie obsession, physical media, and the fine line between critic and creator.

We get into: our origins, a mild Clint Eastwood phase, Greek intermissions, curating movies for planes, Inner West movies, combatting cultural cringe, Margaret and David, third generation physical collecting, Enter the Matrix, DVD menu loops, all-time special features and commentaries, video store shelves, Ciao Magazine’s Favourite Local Character, Film Bro canon, /r/Fancasting, stagnated franchise fandoms, first Letterboxd reviews, Refused Classification, meeting your heroes, critic vs creator, Mario Puzo’s canal metaphor.”

Today’s guest is Tansy Gardam, the host and creator of Going Rogue, one of the internet’s best film podcasts. Each episode is a deep dive into the production of a complicated ginormous blockbuster (and where it may have gone wrong). Is this the biggest podcast crossover event in the Australian movie podcast galaxy?
