30 - Too Cool for School - Rock'n'Roll High School (1979), High School (2010)
“Happy Friday, HMOmies! Today is August 21 and it’s a great day to learn something new.

Let’s make today amazing!!”Woohoo! It’s back to school season and Hear Me Out went all in this week like a cheer squad on speed. During first period, Aileen & Nicole cover the usual with what they’ve watched since the last episode with some assignments even fitting the episode’s theme. That’s gotta be worth extra credit, right? For the first exam, Nicole cheated her way through the finer points of The Ramones in Rock’n’Roll High School followed swiftly by Aileen’s smoke-filled thesis on 2010’s High School. What? Pop quizzes and trips to the nurse’s office round out the day with one final Blimpets presentation in the gymnasium before class is dismissed. Be sure to get all of your homework done early because the next episode is a super special, extra spectacular ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY celebration of the podcast!!

29 - Cheers to the Majestical Sam Neill - Possession (1981), Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016)
From the grey divides of cold war Berlin to the colorful landscape of the New Zealand bush, there’s nowhere a Sam Neill performance could go that audiences wouldn’t lovingly follow. Didn’t matter if he was dastardly chopping a finger or tenderly resting atop a dinosaur, his presence spiced up any film’s storyline. He brought depth and humor with him to every character he embodied, all for the love of acting and making other people happy. And for that, he will be greatly missed. This week, Hear Me Out celebrates the two ends of Sam Neill’s career with discussions about Possession for its 45th anniversary and Hunt for the Wilderpeople, joining the worldwide celebration of its 10th anniversary. Things get emotional when Nicole starts sharing passages from Sam’s recently published memoir and the convo basically stays off the rails from there - she cries a bunch, Aileen gets political, the conversation inevitably gets sexy so you know, basically the same old, same old! Aside from the movies, the usual segments make their appearances in the form of “What Did We Watch This Week” and “Trapped in a Car” and, of course, Blimpets! A very exciting personal update makes its way into Blimpets, keep those ears peeled. **As always, let the pod know what’s up with you!
