In this episode, it's an editor take over! Chris, Diego and Matthew have infiltrated the podcast and are joined by Emmy award winning editor Lise Kearney who has worked on reality shows such as The Voice, Love Island USA, and Fear Factor: House of Fear. Lise discusses what it's like to be an editor living in Los Angeles, what it takes to make it in the business and how to make reality TV feel that bit more... real. Let us know in the comments below if you want the editors to take over the podcast permanetly (this was definetly not written by Matthew).

On this episode, we are delighted to be joined by comedian/actor/writer/filmmaker (is there anything he can't do?) and founder of the comedy conglomerate Dreamgun, Stephen Colfer. Stephen talks to us about the process of making his film reads, a show where he and his friends act out scripts of famous blockbuster films with a bit of a comedic twist! Stay tuned to find out why performing a kid-friendly film read might not be such a good idea!
In this episode, we discuss the extremely sensitive topic of cancelled TV shows. Listen as we rage at huge corporations after they pulled the plug on our favourite shows and film series that had so much potential, like Inside Job, Spectacular Spider-Man, and the DCEU (just kidding!). P.S. we aplogise in advance for the dated Smiling Friends discussion that aged like milk :(
