Description

James "TheBunyipMan" and Jonas "Jttg" get together once a month to talk about one show, movie and video game that they have both enjoyed that month. The two of them dive deep into precisely what their piece of media means to them and generally try to offer and honest view of their experience. They are then forced to watch a *completely random* Netflix movie and review it with the same care and detail as they would any other film...Each episode is streamed on twitch.tv/thebunyipman on the first Tuesday of each month with the audio being released shortly after.
