    Jaws! (The ultimate episode)

    Jaws! (The ultimate episode)

    Back in March, we sat down to record a bumper bonus episode to celebrate the end of WDAWKT as a regular podcast. After we'd recorded, we went out for a few drinks, a nice meal, and a few more drinks, and in the glow of companionship and the fog of the following hangover, we rather forgot actually to edit, master or release the episode. So here you have it. Six months late(r) than planned, the final WDAWKT - Jaws!

    The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

    The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

    "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is an indispensable companion to all those who are keen to make sense of life in an infinitely complex and confusing Universe, for though it cannot hope to be useful or informative on all matters, it does at least make the reassuring claim, that where it is inaccurate it is at least definitively inaccurate. In cases of major discrepancy it's always reality that's got it wrong."

    Don't panic! We're not doing the movie, or the TV show, or the books, or even most of the radio show. This episode is all about the OG HHG, the first ever part of the radio show that spawned all of the above. So grab your towel, sit back, and enjoy the ride.

    Dick Tracy

    Dick Tracy

    Warning: Contains 150% of your daily recommended allowance of Dick jokes.

    We're not sure what led us down the rabbit hole that ended at Warren Beatty's 1990 live action interpretation of the classic detective comic strip. We're even less sure if we like the film or not. One thing is for certain, it's got "Style". With an all star cast (mostly unrecognisable) an award winning soundtrack (full of songs only a mother could love) and a colour palette of 7 (count em), and some of the worst matte work in cinema history, it's certainly of an era. Is it good? Well you'll just have to listen to find out*

    * Unless of course you've seen the film in which case you already know the answer and we share your pain.

    Sneakers

    Sneakers

    Part two of our hacker, tech, double bill is a different beast, less 00's cyberjizz and more grounded. With an all-star ensemble (seriously, check out the cast!) Sneakers actually is an undersung classic. Sure it has some plot holes but where else do you get these actors on screen together doing something that may be semi accurate with cryptography? We love it, we hope you will too.

    Swordfish

    Swordfish

    It's a techy, hacky, cyber double bill this month starting with what we'd love to call an under appreciated classic ... but we can't cos it's not. What it is though is The early 00s on a plate! From Travolta chewing the sets, to Halle Berry smouldering so hard she's in danger of setting fire to John's interesting hair piece, a techno sound track from none other than Paul Oakenfold - it's got it all ... so why don't we like it? Well you'll just have to listen to find out.

    WDAWKT Top 10 Christmas Songs!

    WDAWKT Top 10 Christmas Songs!

    It's beginning to look a lot like the most wonderful time for dashing through the snow with all I Want for Christmas... we're back with our second festive top ten, this time it's Christmas songs! As ever, a medley of seasonal songs and a reminder to not record in the same pub that's showing the rugby (sorry about that). There's something for everyone, from classic crooners, to punk pop hits, heck even the muppets show up again.

    Merry Christmas and happy holidays from WDAWKT and we'll see you in the New Year
