Description

"Films and Fermentation" is a unique and lively podcast where we explore the intersection of movie culture and adult beverages. Each episode, we pick a fun, nostalgic, or quirky movie topic and pair it with the perfect drink to match the vibe. From cult classics and hidden gems to blockbuster hits, we review films with humor, heart, and a little buzz. We delve into films across all genres and decades, creating spirited discussions, while raising a glass to the art of cinema and the world of craft brews, cocktails, and more.

With over 160 episodes and nearly 3 years of consistent content creation, Films and Fermentation has developed a strong, dedicated fan base. Our lighthearted tone, dynamic banter, and focus on niche movie topics paired with drinks set us apart in the movie podcast space.

Send us a text This week on Films and Fermentation, we’re stuffing your stocking with Christmas Classics vs. Their Remakes and seeing who ends up on the naughty list. We’re pitting the originals like It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, and The Grinch against their shiny, CGI’d, studio-noted descendants. Are the remakes holiday miracles or cinematic lumps of coal wrapped in nostalgia bait? Expect eggnog-fueled rants, hot takes, and more bah-humbugs than a Scrooge reboot. So grab a C...
Send us a text "Tonight we’re raising a glass to two holiday underdogs: the scrappy little TV special that almost didn’t get made, A Charlie Brown Christmas, and the scrappy little podcast that also probably shouldn’t have, Films and Fermentation. Sixty years ago, Charlie Brown taught us the true meaning of Christmas; five years ago, we taught you the true meaning of “maybe that was one beer too many.” In this episode we’re unwrapping nostalgia, grooving to Vince Guaraldi in our heads, and as...

Send us a text "This week on Films and Fermentation, we’re playing everyone’s favorite game: Real or Fake Movie Plots! Can you tell the difference between a legitimate Hollywood script and the fever dream of a screenwriter on a caffeine bender? From shark-filled tornados to time-traveling cheerleaders, we’re diving into the absurdity that makes us love movies even more. Grab a drink, take your best guess, and prepare to be baffled by what actually got greenlit. It’s movie madness, beer-fueled...
Send us a text "This week on Films and Fermentation, we’re heading to a galaxy far, far away to celebrate 45 years of The Empire Strikes Back — the sequel that taught us family reunions can get really awkward. Join our band of rebels as we toast to lightsabers, lost hands, and the greatest plot twist since finding out your favorite brewery is switching to non-alcoholic beer. We’ll break down why this icy, emotional space opera still reigns supreme. Expect bad Yoda impressions, strong drinks, ...
THANK YOU VETERANS!

THANK YOU VETERANS!

Send us a text "This week on Films and Fermentation, we salute our veterans the only way we know how — by arguing over which war movies actually get the military right and which ones couldn’t pass basic training. From Saving Private Ryan’s gut-wrenching realism to G.I. Joe’s cartoon physics, we’re putting Hollywood on trial with beer in hand and sarcasm locked and loaded. Expect equal parts respect and ridiculo...

The Great Muppet Election!

Send us a text "It’s election season at Films and Fermentation, and democracy has never been this fuzzy! This week, we’re recasting our favorite political movies — from The American President to Napoleon Dynamite — entirely with Muppets. Kermit’s running for office, Miss Piggy’s demanding equal screen time, and Gonzo’s foreign policy involves chickens. We’re mixing politics, puppets, and pints for one chaotic campaign trail of laughs. So grab your ballot and your beer — it’s time to elect the...
Send us a text "Grab your garlic, silver bullets, and emotional support beer — it’s time for the Films and Fermentation Best Horror Movie Tournament Bracket! This week, your favorite booze-fueled film nerds pit the scariest, bloodiest, and most delightfully ridiculous horror movies against each other to crown the ultimate terror royalty. Expect heated debates, questionable logic, and plenty of puns that’ll make you groan louder than a zombie at sunrise. From Psycho to The Thing, no classic is...
Send us a text "Tonight, we’re diving into our brand-new series, Sequel Wars, starting with the mother of all matchups: Alien (1979) versus Aliens (1986). It’s a battle between slow-burn cosmic horror and full-throttle bug-splattering action—like if Ridley Scott and James Cameron got into a bar fight over who ordered the last pint. Will subtle terror and atmosphere prevail, or will pulse rifles and power loaders crush the competition? Grab a drink, watch your motion tracker, and remember— in ...
Send us a text "Tonight we’re cozying up with the best movies about fall—because nothing says autumn like pumpkin spice, football, and crippling seasonal depression. We’ll rake through the cinematic leaf piles to find the hidden gems and the turkeys that should’ve stayed in November. Expect more corny harvest festival jokes than your local hayride. Grab a cider, throw on a flannel, and let’s get this harvest of hilarity started!” Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gma...
Send us a text "Tonight we salute the man who could turn a door knock into a punchline and a pancake into a personality: the legendary John Candy. From SCTV to Planes, Trains & Automobiles, he carried more heart than Del’s trunk and twice the shower-curtain rings. We’ll wander The Great Outdoors, go to ludicrous speed with Barf in Spaceballs, and let Uncle Buck teach us parenting via snow shovel and giant spatula. Expect Cool Runnings of nostalgia and warm refills of brew as we toast the ...
Send us a text "Welcome back, fellow film fanatics, to Season 11 of Films and Fermentation! That’s right—we’ve survived another season of questionable cocktails, half-baked hot takes, and movies so forgotten even their own directors deny they exist. This premiere we’re diving deep into “Films that Time Forgot”—you know, the ones that didn’t just fall through the cracks, they got shoved into a basement, locked in a trunk, and buried under Jimmy Hoffa. We’re talking cinematic fossils: movies yo...

Send us a text "Welcome back to Films & Fermentation, the podcast where we drink more than directors yell cut and talk movies until the credits roll. This week, we’re raising a glass to the greatest final scenes in cinema—the moments that stick with you long after the popcorn’s gone. From freeze frames to plot twists, teary goodbyes to explosions you didn’t see coming, we’re covering them all. Think of it as the cinematic version of “last call.” Because sometimes, the way a movie ends is ...
Send us a text In this episode, the only class where the homework is movies and the extra credit is beer. Tonight, we’re cracking open a Saison and diving headfirst into the awkward hallways, cafeteria dramas, and detention shenanigans of high school movies. Think of us as your slightly older, definitely less responsible guidance counselors. We can’t promise wisdom, but we can promise wisecracks and alcohol. So grab your hall pass, class is officially in Saison! Because nothing says education...
Send us a text "Pop open a cold one, folks, because this week on Films and Fermentation we’re diving into the cinematic mixtape of the man who gave the ’80s its ultimate soundtrack—John Hughes. He’s the reason we all wished for a day off like Ferris, a breakfast detention with cool misfits, and a Christmas vacation with Cousin Eddie). Hughes didn’t just write movies; he wrote the awkward, hilarious, and heartfelt moments of our teenage souls—then set them to a killer New Wave beat. So grab yo...
Send us a text "Tonight, we're taking a break from actual film reviews to play the game no screenwriter wants you to see: Movie Madlibs—where plot structure goes to die. We’ll be filling in the blanks on ridiculous movie summaries, each one written in the style of a famous director—because nothing says “artistic tribute” like turning Tarantino into a Mad Libs booklet. Expect chaos, confusion, and at least one h...
Send us a text "Welcome to Films and Fermentation, where our childhoods were shaped by the magical, the whimsical, and the deeply scarring. Today, we’re diving into the twisted fever dreams that passed for “kids’ movies” in the 1980s—because nothing says family fun like puppets with dead eyes and animated rabbits dying in slow motion. These films taught us important life lessons, like how to fear swamps, trust no goblins, and that sometimes your stuffed animals might just be harboring existen...
