Podcast 200: Stranger Things Spoiler Podcast
by Mc on Nov.20, 2017, under Podcasts, Spoilercast
Wow. We actually made it to 200 podcasts! Thanks to the tremendous amount of planning that goes into each show, however you won’t hear us talk about that fact at all in the show, as Iain only realised we’d reached 200 when he was editing the podcast!
This works out pretty good for you, dear listener, as we concentrate on our spoiler filled discussion of Stranger Things season 2 instead of faffing on about the last 200 podcasts!
Join us as we visit with Bob, Joyce, Sheriff Hopper, Dustin, Lucas, Will, Mike, Eleven, Max and all the other residents of Hawkins, Indiana and talk about everything that happens to them in season 2 from the opening moments of the podcast; so we highly recommend you not listen unless you have finished all nine episodes of season 2.
What did you think of season 2? You can let us know by emailing us at podcast@mcyapandfries.com or tweeting either of us at @mcnastyprime or at @gavyap.
As always our podcast is proudly brought to you by Greenroom 136.com, an independent bag company from Malaysian, who specialise in urban bags for the modern urban citizen, ranging from single strap messenger style sling bags and attaches to back packs all the way to bags for holding your LIGHTSABERS!

Podcast 199: Thor: Ragnarok Spoilercast
by Mc on Nov.09, 2017, under Avengers, Podcasts, Spoilercast
Iain and Gavin sit down with some Asgardian ale to discuss the latest adventure for Marvel’s space vikings in Thor:Ragnarok and what could be the funniest Marvel Studios movie so far, although it’s not without it’s dark edges.
We go easy on the spoilers for our review at first before diving into a spoiler section at the end to discuss the finer plot details of the God Of Thunder’s latest exploits and possible directions for the Marvel universe post-Ragnarok, so you’re probably better off waiting to listen to the podcasts until after you’ve seen the movie.
Have your say on what you thought of the film, and our review, by emailing us at podcast@mcyapandfries.com or tweeting either of us at @mcnastyprime or  @gavyap.

by Mc on Oct.06, 2017, under Podcasts, Spoilercast

Blade Runner 2049 poster by Michael Friebe (raborlatte) at posterspy.com. Click the image for more.
35 years after the release of Ridley Scott’s sci-fi classic Blade Runner, we are finally getting a sequel in Blade Runner 2049; a sequel that no one could have dared to expect.
Is it any good? Does it measure up against the original?
On this week’s podcast Iain and Gavin discuss their history with the original and their thoughts on the sequel, without spoilers, for the first 20 minutes of the podcast. After that (and a brief word from Roy Batty) we dive into spoilers for the rest of the podcast, so you can avoid that section if you’ve not seen the film yet
Let us know what you thought of the film, as well as our review, by tweeting us at @mcnastyprime or  @gavyap and by emailing us at podcast@mcyapandfries.com.
As ever the McYapAndFries movie podcast is sponsored by Greenroom 136.com, a Malaysian independent carry gear/backpack company specialising in various urban bags ranging from messenger style, backpacks, wallets, camera inserts and related accessories.

Episode 196: Twin Peaks The Return
by Mc on Sep.26, 2017, under Podcasts, Spoilercast
Not a review, not a recap, this week’s podcast is a rambling (and hopefully entertaining) chat between Gavin and Iain about Twin Peaks: The Return and the genius that is David Lynch. After a tribute to Harry Dean Stanton (who passed away on the day of recording) we talk about our experiences with the old series,  our favourite moments and performances from the new one and speculate wildly about what any of it means, so be warned there are spoilers from the very beginning of the podcast.
We highly recommend you finish Twin Peaks season 3 before listening to this podcast.
As Iain mentions repeatedly in the podcast, we are no experts in Twin Peaks lore, however, if you do wish to listen to some entertaining and insightful experts, then we highly recommend The Twin Peaks Rewatch podcast from the Idle thumbs Network which filled in a lot of blanks for Iain.
As always you can let us know what you thought of Twin Peaks return after 25 years (and our podcast!) by emailing us at podcast@mcyapandfries.com, or reaching us on twitter at @mcnastyprime and @gavyap!
