  • A Good Day to Pod Hard
    Dec 25 2024

    It's the final episode of The Pod Charles Cinecast, presented by The Prince Charles Cinema, and our hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas have been hit with the dreaded writer's block. Tasked with coming up a worthy denouement to the show after nearly six years of antics, Jon and Fil find themselves truly stuck. How can you possibly do a big blow-off meta episode about the fifth and final instalment in the Die Hard franchise, 2013's A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD?

    Will the boys defeat the burnout in time to deliver an episode worthy enough for our beloved fans? Will they be taunted by familiar voices of the past? Will this be the most meta of meta episodes? And lastly, the question everyone wants to know, will Jon and Fil finally get their coveted Nakatomi Podcast Award? All will be revealed in this epic Series Finale of The Pod Charles Cinceast!

    Thank you all for listening. Thank you for all your love and support over the years. We love you! Be Kind To Each Other!

    Farewell.

  • Die Hard is a Christmas Movie [re-upload]
    Dec 18 2024

    Before the big finale episode next week, take a look back on a classic Christmas episode of The Pod Charles Cinecast, where hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas fly to Los Angeles for the Nakatomi International Podcast Festival to present a live episode on the 1988 Bruce Willis holiday classic DIE HARD!
    "WELCOME TO THE PARTY, PAL!"

    Only one thing can stop them... A group of armed terrorists take over the festival and cause a ton of chaos!

    Can Jon and Fil stop the terrorists from interrupting the show and record this episode that will surely save Christmas? Tune in to find out....

    Expect gunfire, explosions, Hans Gruber impressions, quotes, jokes and plenty of love for this Christmas classic (it is totally a Christmas Movie btw)! It's basically like an old school radioplay mixed with a film podcast!

  • BRUCE WILLS US: Disney's The Kid
    Dec 11 2024

    In this penultimate episode of The Pod Charles Cinecast, your hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas are back with a Brucie Bonus, as we see the return of BRUCE WILLS US – the bonus series where we occasionally dip into the films of Bruce Willis. With Christmas nearly here, we'd figure we'd dip into one of Bruno's most magical movies, that would be a sure-fire holiday classic had it been set in December, DISNEY'S THE KID (2000).

    Bruce Willis plays a self-absorbed 40-year-old image consultant who is mysteriously confronted by the eight-year-old version of himself (Spencer Breslin), and is forced to confront the traumas of his past to become a better man. The film features a nice supporting cast of Emily Mortimer, Lily Tomlin, Chi McBride and Jean Smart.

    It's a pretty wholesome family film, that shows a really sweet side to Bruce, but there is a bit of a "time travel" twist that if you think about too much, makes absolutely no sense. Also, deep inside the film contains a pretty strong man going through therapy and confronting his inner child theme; something that didn't get much play back in those days. So of course we loved it.

    So, even though it's not a Christmas movie, we think it has enough magic to play this time of year. Give it a spin, and meet us on the airwaves for one last normal episode... Next Week is the end, and it will be a doozy.

    "Aww, somebody call the waahmbulance!"
