Movie roulette is something we have talked about in the past and this episode of GBW is proof positive of that as it's such a eclectic mix of 16 films. We talk Sean Baker's newest effort ANORA, revisit a much maligned John Carpenter flick, get excited about "Die Hard on a Plane", watch a Satanic 70's television talk show, wonder how George Hamilton…

It's spooky season and as this is our last episode before All Hallow's Eve we decided to give you 90% horror and, maybe, give you a few ideas to watch.

What is one song you wish yo…

We asked Gia Mora - actress, writer, musician and most prolific Record Roulette guest! - to pick an album and she went with... improvisational jazz? We're talking about John Coltrane's 1960 banger, "Giant Steps," which is on the Rolling Stone list at #232. During this episode we cover: What makes a jazz album good/bad How neophytes should prepare f…

Some movies get released until different titles and trick us, so colour us surprised when two of the sixteen covered this time pull the good old "bait & switch".

Let us know on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook at @rrmusicpod. Music by lemonmusic…

We asked all-star guest Michael Simon - the creator of VH1 Storytellers - to FINALLY pick an album that makes him happy, after previously chatting with us about The Cure, NWA and The Velvet Underground. This is what he picked - a "compilation" by semi-obscure punk rockers Buzzcocks, which comes in at #250 on the Rolling Stone list. On this episode …

Sixteen movies are covered on this episode but first we share our thoughts on the 2024 Oscars: the good, the not so good and any surprises.

If it's too loud you're too old! Music is at its most impactful when we're teenagers. It shapes our attitudes, opinions and even our groups of friends. We self-select who we want to be based on who we want to listen to. That made us wonder - what's the one album that resonated most with you as a teenager? It's a highly personal question that we ask…

We asked Alex Kinsella to pick an album from the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest list and he went with a juvenile little disc called "Licensed to Ill" by the Beastie Boys, which just so happens to also be one of the most important albums in hip hop history. On this episode we cover: The group's unique place in the early days of hip hop Cultural appropri…

We've got another batch of twenty movies that crossed our eyeballs since the last time we spoke and, as usual, it's an eccentric batch.

If there's one album from The Band that everyone knows, it'd The Last Waltz. An epic, iconic moment in rock and roll history, The Last Waltz stands at a pivotal time in history. But is that enough to earn it a spot on a greatest albums list? Should live albums ever be on greatest albums lists? Our newest episode tries to answer that question throug…

We asked the guy with a podcast called "The Band: A History" to pick and album and... he picked an album by The Band. We're talking Music from Big Pink with Tyrell Lisson.

We asked funny internet lady Clare Blackwood to pick an album, she said she didn't know anything about music, so we ended up with a Creedence Clearwater Revival album, but what an album! Cosmo's Factory was released in 1972 and makes the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums list at #413. Listen as we cover: The similarities between comedy and music pe…

As we head towards the end of 2023 there's absolutely no chance you'll get a "best of" episode from us as we've been much too busy watching various oddities and exploitation flicks of yesteryear, Amongst the eighteen films covered this time we get a duo of Christmas horror, two completely different flicks starring an animal, a JCVD team-up that's n…

We asked Juno-nominated musician, best-selling author and former David Bowie bandmate Emm Gryner to pick an album from the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums list and she picked... Sade?
