Reviews
- Brilliant!!
Fantastic chemistry (no pun intended) between the two hosts, who bring us along on their journey of a shared love of movies, but not necessarily the same kind of movie. Nevertheless they explore the scientific accuracy of many great films, and occasionally inflict on one another some terrible, or possibly “Good-Bad” picks, but the conversions are always gems.

United Kingdoma year ago - Interesting but too quiet :)
Looks like it might be interesting but found it hard to listen to as it’s so quietly recorded. (No-one has yet bought me expensive noise-cancelling headphones…). Even at maximum volume it’s hard to make out every word....
Experiment: Open up the recent podcast in Audacity and compare it with another from another podcaster - for your podcast the wave forms are huddled on the floor rather than approaching the tops.
Perhaps you’ll get new microphones for Xmas? :)
Apple Podcasts3yet another person called peteUnited Kingdom2 years ago - Really increases appreciation of cinema
I love how this podcast increased my appreciation of cinema, either through a more conscious rewatch of an old movie or interdicting me to a new movie.
E.G. watching TimeCop after hearing this podcast increased my enjoyment of the move off the charts. Watched everything everywhere all at once last week and wouldn’t have even seen the movie if it wasn’t for this poddy. Thanks team!!

Australia3 years ago - Really enjoyable discussions
Honest heartfelt discussions, mixed in with movie reviews and science. Bliss.
Apple Podcasts5astrobicAustralia3 years ago - Fantastic
Abi and Freda are mad funny science people who have inviting conversations about an almost random assortment of films. Surprising that they can even produce this much content and still work as full time physicists. Impressive really. One of my favorite podcast. Who else would give me a new reason to watch timecop?!
