Cinema Classics Number 10 - "When the moon is in the seventh house, And Jupiter aligns with Mars, Then peace will guide the planets, And love will steer the stars. This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius"

In this 99th overall Silver Screen episode, host Mike and “The Discord Crew”—Adrienne, Tobi, and Sandy—are back for another swing through classic cinema. This time, it’s a wild, peace-loving, and outrageously wigged-out discussion on the 1979 Milos Forman musical Hair. Adrienne picked out this film for us to watch, a cinematic trip that takes us back to a time of anti-war protests, flower power, and some of the grooviest dance numbers this side of the Vietnam draft. Expect our panel to dig deep into the film's unforgettable characters, incredible performances, outrageous costumes, and songs that defined a generation, from "Aquarius" to "Let the Sunshine In." But don’t be surprised if a few detours come up. Did the film capture the spirit of the era or just miss the mark? What’s the true meaning of “Easy to Be Hard,” and why can’t we stop singing "Good Morning Starshine"? Finally there's a look at how Hair fares with modern audiences who may be craving a peace-and-love revival, as well as an examination of the critical response upon it's release. In this free-spirited conversation, Mike and the gang hash it out, dissecting the movie's message, artistry, and unforgettable musical numbers. So grab your bell bottoms, tune in, and let the sunshine in!

Series 6, Episode 6 - "This is awful! Pass me the popcorn."

Hit or Miss: Star Trek is back for more deep dives into controversial, divisive or downright unpopular Trek episodes. This time we're looking at the finale of Star Trek: Enterprise (and, for a time, Star Trek overall), "These Are the Voyages". Captain Mike & Commander D.K once again welcome aboard Nita, on special assignment from the Sci-Fi Queens. As well as the episode itself, which generates a pretty heated and potentially surprising debate, there's also discussion of favourite Trek finales. Then the Hit or Miss section takes in a couple of Voyagers, a TOS episode that was very of it's time and a character played by a legendary actor with a knack for playing murderous psychopaths. Plus the critics' thoughts, your opinions and an overall review. Don't debate the matter on the holodeck, click play now!

Episode 98 - "This job would be great if it wasn't for the f*cking customers."

Welcome back, faithful friends. On the latest Silver Screen Podcast episode, Mike and D.K. roll back to 1994 to celebrate 30 years of Kevin Smith’s cult classic, 'Clerks'. Feel old yet? Joined once more by returning guest Michael Whaley (for the second week in a row), the crew dives into the world of convenience store slacker wisdom and VHS nostalgia, reminiscing about what makes this lo-fi indie flick both a snapshot of a generation and a timeless piece of deadpan humor. They hash out the highs, the lows, and those quotable “I’m not even supposed to be here today!” moments, blending their own experiences with a sharp review. Will Clerks still ring true, or has it been left in the dust of Quick Stop’s cigarette-stained counter? Grab your Gatorade and find out!

NB: THIS EPISODE CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE AND DISCUSSIONS OF A SEXUAL NATURE, REFLECTING THE FILM BEING REVIEWED. DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
