The Podcorn: Everything FilmFriendship & Wicked – Toupees, Bubbles, and Podcorn Chaos This week on The Podcorn with Sam and Stella, we dive into two wildly different worlds: the cringe-fueled bromance of Friendship, starring Paul Rudd and Tim Robinson, and the spellbinding spectacle of Wicked, where Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo float, belt, and bubble their way through Oz. Stella’s loving the songs (and totally ready to defy gravity), while Sam’s less enchanted by the bleurgh colour palette. Meanwhile, Friendship delivers laughs and discomfort in equal measure, as our hosts unpack what it means to be endearingly desperate in a punk-band friendship gone haywire.🍿🧙♀️🧼#thepodcorn #filmreviews #wicked #friendship...2025-07-2129 min
The Podcorn: Everything FilmSuperman & Cloverfield – Capes, Chaos & Podcorn MayhemThis week on The Podcorn with Sam and Stella, it’s heroics versus havoc as we take on the brand-new Superman movie and revisit the monster mayhem of Cloverfield. While Clark Kent flexes his muscles (and maybe some questionable storytelling), the creature in Cloverfield stomps its way through nostalgia and shaky cam trauma. Expect superhero side-eyes, kaiju-level critiques, and the usual Podcorn tangents that fly faster than a speeding bullet. 🍿🦸♂️👾#SupermanMovie #Cloverfield #PodcornPodcast #FilmReview #MoviePodcast #MonsterMovies #SuperheroCinema #KaijuWatch #ClarkKent #CinematicChaos #SamAndStella #MovieTalk #BlockbusterBreakdown #PopcornAndMayhem #ShakyCamTerror #SuperpoweredPodcorn Hosted on Acast.

Somewhere along the way, we detour through theme tune singalongs, a heated Pulp Fiction tangent, and possibly invent a new superhero called "Tangential Man." Expect praise, sass, cinematic chaos, and maybe a dramatic rendition of the Superman score.and Star Wars, Star Trek...🎬🎤🦸♂️ Hosted on Acast.

While F1 had us on the edge of our seats with real stakes and adrenaline-fueled brilliance, Top Gun felt like it borrowed its script from a jet engine manual. Expect high praise, low blows, and some swooning over Brad Pitt. Spoiler: speed wins, swagger doesn’t. 🏁🎬✈️https://shows.acast.com/the-podcorn-everything-film/about Hosted on Acast.

While Stella battles a very non-cinematic cold (boo hoo indeed), she and Sam dissect the evolution of the iconic rage virus saga—from Cillian Murphy's wake-up call to apocalyptic sequels and the newest chapter in humanity’s bad luck with science. Expect a few coughs and some contentious opinions about who would actually survive (Spoiler: probably not Stella this week) and whether Sam would save his own mum in a zombie invasion!!!.🍿🧟♀️#PodcornPodcast...2025-06-2428 min
ScoopImme Ermgassen, BotivoToday, I’m taking a step out of the kitchen and usual restaurant service to chat with Imme Ermgassen, one of the co-founders of Botivo. Imme invited me into her home for the interview - her dining room table is beautifully busy with children’s toys, high chairs, and now my recording equipment.

From uncanny valley sidekicks to velvet-draped darkness, we pull apart how two films from opposite ends of the cinematic spectrum ended up equally memorable (for very different reasons). Expect sharp takes, surreal tangents, and the usual Podcorn banter. 🍎🕳️#bluevelvet #davidlynch #disney #snowwhite #PodcornPodcast #MovieReview #JourneyFilms #FilmDiscussion #CinematicJourneys #FilmPodcast #MovieDebate #PopcornAndMovies #imdb Hosted on Acast.

Somewhere in between the serenity and the screaming, we touch on what makes a truly great journey film, briefly nodding to classics like Into the Wild, A Real Pain, The Way, and Wild. Expect a mix of thoughtful reflection on Moth and Ray's salty walk and chaotic clown-related confusion. 🍿🎬Don't forget to like, subscribe and leave a review!#TheSaltPath #ClownInACornfield #PodcornPodcast #MovieReview #JourneyFilms #FilmDiscus...2025-06-1027 minThe Podcorn: Everything FilmPhoenician Schemes, Final Destinations & Impossible Missions – A Podcorn BreakdownThis week on The Podcorn with Sam and Stella, we’re diving into a fantastic line-up of cinema film —The Phoenician Scheme, Final Destination: Bloodlines, and Mission: Impossible! Sammy is ready to unravel the plot twists, high-stakes action, and increasingly ridiculous ways death manages to find its victims, while Stella is here to celebrate the spectacle (and possibly question how Tom Cruise is still in one piece and whether he is still fanciable). 🎬🍿Enjoy the podcorn!!#podcorn #cinema #bloodlines #finaldestination #phoenicianscheme #missionimpossible #tomcruise Hosted on Acast.

People in Insurance: Changing the ConversationMacaii S1 E007: The Psychology Behind the Insurance Sector’s Poor Public Perception with Sam WhiteWhy does the insurance industry continue to be plagued by a reputation that it is untrustworthy, exploitative and profit centric? What can we do internally and via our communications with the public to reorient this perspective and thereby foster a healthier relationship between customers and insurers?
An array of deep-rooted psychological factors continue to inform negative public attitudes towards insurance. The ramifications of these are multifaceted – active pursuit of a career in the industry is a rarity, hence our current recruitment crisis, and there are generalised misconceptions of what we really do. In this episode of Changing th...2024-05-2846 min

Cinema, the Psyche, unveiling Inner HeroesIt's always therapy and psychoanalysis around here, movies are the vehicle. Favourite films reflect deep psychological themes and evolving personal identities. What we once found aspirational in a character, we might later rethink, or realise it was not the healthiest hero to have. Others may have been right for the time. So we mainly talk about movies our younger selves were drawn to, Pulp Fiction, Terminator 2, The Matrix, Le Samurai, The Thin Red Line, Beaches, When...2024-04-3054 min
