Easy Riders Raging Podcast

Now in our fourth series, we"re back and this time around we"re talking 1980s films of all shapes and sizes. But not just that, we"ve got eps on 80s TV, and music videos and more! As ever our episodes include trademark features such as Recastarama (where we recast the film using current actors) and Who Am I (where we work out who we would be in the film). Lots of fun to be had. [Our 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and 1970s series are also available]

Just as a bit of backstory to the ep, Paul and Kieran are long-time Trekkies while I am not (I make several X-Men comparisons in this episode as that was my franchise rather than this)
