Delroy Lindo + Wuthering Heights, These Sacred Vows
We're back with a brand new episode! Hosts Andrew, Katie and Stephen head to the heat of the Mississippi Delta and plenty of other warm places too, in covering Delroy Lindo. The acclaimed character actor is perhaps best known for his roles in David Mamet's Heist, Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods, The Core and Gone in 60 Seconds. He was also recently nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his scene-stealing turn in Ryan Coogler's record-breaking Sinners. Before they get into Lindo's career, the hosts discuss their recent watches, including Emerald Fennell's film adaptation of Wuthering Heights and RTÉ's new show These Sacred Vows.

Dune 3, The Odyssey + the most exciting 2026 movies
Hosts Andrew Carroll, Katie McGrath and (a slightly late) Stephen Porzio discuss their most anticipated movies of 2026, from massive sure-to-be-blockbusters like Dune Part 3 and The Odyssey, to other box office hopefuls like Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil and the Tom Cruise-starring Digger, to smaller genre and homegrown fare. Listen to find out about what upcoming franchise spin-off filmed in a Dublin City bar, what crime drama once banned in Ireland has become a valuable piece of IP, or what soon-to-be-released thriller Stephen thinks could be a secret sequel.
