The Lost Podcast
A few weeks ago, I made my podcasting debut on Worse Addictions. Though nervous and worried about sounding shrill (or worse, stupid), I ended up having a great time and one of those fabulous, far-ranging film conversations with fellow podcasters: Scott Henderson, Matt Ravier and Alex Parker. We chatted about Australian masculinity as portrayed in Glendyn Ivin's Last Ride, Michael Mann's Heat (and his terrible portrayal of women), and the misogyny, racism and homophobia inherent in Michael Bay's Transformers 2.
Yes, it was one of those conversations.
Unfortunately, however, a cruel twist of technical fate munched the files and poor Scott was unable to salvage the material. So alas the world shall never hear my debut.
In the following weeks, there was another foiled attempt at take 2 of my debut, and while I'm sure I'll get to join in the fun again soon, I can't recommend enough that you check out this local film podcast. In no doubt an exponential learning curve, Scott and the team are making great inroads and fast establishing themselves as an insightful and entertaining cinematic resource.
So get on over to Worse Addictions and take part in the Australian film scene. The latest episode takes on District 9, and continues the latest Body of Lies: a Hayao Miyazaki marathon. Plus this week the team are joined by special guest Steven Kastrissios, director of the Aussie revenge flick The Horseman.
Fun fun!

Many many many thanks for the pimping, we'll make up for now-so-legendary-it's-capped The Lost Podcast soon!
Pleasure my dear! Looking forward reuniting "The Lost Podcast" team. My first task will be to downplay any hype that may have been generated. Eeeep!
