The Black Dog Podcast

Join Lee, Darren, Jim and Elton as they waffle, wonder and jabber on about film, geek news, video games and any other tangential rubbish that spring to mind, before reviewing a movie from yesteryear. Removing the Rose Tinted Specs to see if a film really deserves its classic status or the Sh*t Covered Goggles to see if a bad film is actually as awful as its reputation.

Ready Or Not

2024/01/31

This week Jim has some words for the transport company running the Trans Pennine Express... Especially the use of the word "Express". Elton suffers at the hands (or comments) of arm chair world war 2 aviation "experts". While Darren plays knock off PokeMon (or is that Pikey Mon?) in the form of PalWorld. He also has an uncomfortable time watching Emma Stone in Poor Things in the cinema. Lee on the other hand is having a whale of a time cleaning patios in a video game, namely Power Wash Simulator...

This week we learn that Jim is back on the cheese and in a coincidentally related note is also hunkering down from the wind. Elton, is proud of his artist mum and also teases a new podcast project that is in double umbongo embargo. Meanwhile Darren dives into YouTube to find out if the tv shows he liked as a kid in the 70s hold up (spoiler noooope!) and finally Lee watches two lacklustre movies (Role Play and Ghostbuster:Afterlife) and then recounts a trip to the planet Avora, a world of cocktails

This week Jim becomes patient zero for Last of Us, Elton watches Leave the World Behind, Darren wonders why the War of the Worlds musical is so different from the unabridged audio book, which also seems to have more cockney "AVE IT!" moments from the Martians, while Lee becomes exasperated by Good Omens 2 and nearly blows up the kitchen making the veg for a roast dinner. After that we dive down a deep and disturbing rabbit hole as feedback reveals a cult of the airfryer, growing within the

Welcome to 2024 - A new year and a new episode of your favourite podcast after all the others you listen to first. This week we all look back over our christmas break, Jim joins Darren in the cult of the Air Fryer much to Lee and Eltons dismay. But Jim does redeem himself with "Piggys In Blankets in Holes" er... yeah... Probably best not to google that. He also watches some weird chrismas films in preparation for next years season on the cast. Meanwhile Elton has tooth trouble (OUCH!) gets his

The Platform

2023/11/29

What can I say, this is a long episode with a lot to process... From great hopeful health news for Jim, to tap drama for Elton, Darren being excited by an air fryer and Lee getting savaged (and possibly super powers) from a rabid squirrel. Add to that interesting feedback for last weeks episode and then its on to this weeks movie which is either a parable about greed, class, selfishness and social hierarchy or.... The physical representation of all the music of the 80s (especially Nik Kershaw)..

This week Elton tries valiantly to tell us about his car battery. Jim watches Suitable Flesh, and When Evil Lurks. Darren goes for a bath and is asked to "Judge our fudge!" and Lee tries to get a car air blower working and ends up with almost having a viking funeral.

Alone in the Dark: Commentary Club

The Black Dog Podcast ·

2023/10/31

Hey everyone and welcome to Halloween... Welp! We did it! We did four horror films over October and released this episode on Halloween itself! Wow! How do we celebrate? By combining Blackdog chaos with Jim and Teresa doing a Commentary club on Uwe Bolls "masterpiece" Alone In The Dark, which is currently available on Amazon Prime. It is a watch along episode as all of us descend in to drunken madness. So if you have no intention of watching this absolute nonsense then probably best skip an episode

I just can't even begin to describe how the wheels come off.... I'm pretty sure they were never attached and were probably on fire in the first place... So enjoy some green room pre show nonsense, some "hows your week" featuring Old Gods, Bodies, Loki, leaky conservatories, Polish Dub, Spanish Dub, Pirate versions of Craig David songs, Netflix streaming hatred, organ music and a general cock up cascade you've all come to expect from a podcast of this quality...

This week has a problem with his pipes, Elton gets in to the exciting world of farming on his playstation, Darren watches Gen V, while Lee tries (and fails) exercise, reviews The Creator and discovers that a man of religion is trying to run him over.

This week Jim is back from a break, Darren is off touring the galaxy in the game Starfield and Lee celebrates a 25th wedding anniversary with food and alcohol decadence...

Welcome back to this weeks episode of The Blackdog Podcast. This week Jim is away. So Lee tries to fill the void with extra dose of poorly delivered dad jokes before we move on to everyones week, including Eltons shock that there is a national cinema day and Darren falling into a hell of generic superhero cliches watching Blue Beetle, followed by Jurassic Park. Lee on the other hand, climbs Elizabeth Tower and gets his insides liquidised thanks to close proximity to the Big Ben bell as it struck

This week, the jingles all get shot down 1 hour after we finished recording so I'm plenty happy about that... Thanks hosting service and fruit based asshats... Anyway this week Jim joins a cult, Elton gets excited about USB car chargers (again), Darren screws up comedy and Lee replaces a fan in his car, then a resistor and then.... Well... Car repair is more of an art than a science... Then after a tiny bit of feedback its on to this weeks film and an opportunity to resurrect the old "change the
