15: Baguette w/ Justin McElroy Apr 07, 2023

Show notes

Justin McElroy joins Tim and Guy to question whether anyone involved in the making of F8 Of The Furious knows anything about how babies work. We find out Guy's greatest weakness, where Justin sits on the great Vin vs. The Rock debate and who would be the perfect villain for Fast 10. There's a lot of bread chatter, analysis of the role of Butt Women and also of Jason Statham, in this franchise.

14: Cyclone Mar 31, 2023

Show notes

Timbo and GuyGuy have been to podcast therapy/mediation to work on their connection and the results are middling. It's been a challenging watch, in trying conditions as despite both being in the same city, they are separated by a literal cyclone. Guy unearths an Architectural Digest tour of Tyrese's mansion before sharing an infamous Instagram post by The Rock that was made on the last week of filming F8. It is bombshell material. Tim speculates on the beef/working conditions of the F8 set and what insecurities collaborating with The Rock may have unearthed in Vin Diesel. A feeble attempt to lighten the mood comes in the form of a pitch for a ghastly alternative F8 involving the Red Dragons (the girls soccer team that Hobbs/The Rock coaches).

PRODUCTION NOTE: Tim misgendered Ezra Miller in this episode. He apologises and regrets the error.

13: Pokémon Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

It’s the fourth watch of F8 and it’s not feelin’ great. Tim and Guy ride their lazy boys into the mines once more to discover new secrets about a guy prominently in this movie who DOES NOT READ AS AN ACTOR, the history of energy drinks in Aotearoa New Zealand and answer the biggest question in all of the Fast and Furious franchise; Which Pokémon are each of the crew? Strap in, grab a 440ml Monster and enjoy.

12: Time Travel w/ Joseph Moore Mar 15, 2023

Show notes

Life-long Fast and Furious fan Joseph Moore joins the fellaz to discuss the F8 of The Furious, which he personally rates as either the worst or possibly second worst movie in the franchise. Joe delivers some red hot takes on why The Rock is bad for F&F and why he’s #TeamVin all the way. Two great ideas are floated for some new vehicles to feature in Fast X - one is a dimension and the other is a 150 year old mode of public transport.

Family Time 4 Mar 12, 2023

Show notes

Guy wearing underpants and a hat only, is in Adelaide - The City of The Future, and fresh off a high ropes course which went incredibly badly for one young boy. A podcast fan/bona fide animal expert has a bone to pick regarding our regard for Paul Blart’s regard for the Grey-Crowned Crane in PBMC2. The boiz also discuss the future of their relationship to Fast and Furious and then consider their dream and nightmare blunt rotations from the back catalogue of movies they've watched - truly a fun exercise in Worst Idea back catalogue-remembering.

11: A Compliment From The Rock w/ Amy Hoggart Mar 08, 2023

Show notes

The fellaz are joined by US-based British writer/actor/comedian Amy Hoggart and one thing is for sure; She has watched the movie! You might know Amy from Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Almost Royal or her podcast, FeMANism. We know her from watching The F8 of The Furious in three bite-sized CHUNKS and being left wanting less of what F8 has (car chases and fight scenes) and more of what it doesn’t (a plot that makes sense and characters with some depth). Amy also drops knowledge on what Aristotle what’ve brought to this film’s script AND what it would mean to her to receive a little pep talk from The Rock.

10: How To Seduce A Submarine Mar 01, 2023

Show notes

Guy is riding on a brand new movie for his ear and eyeballs - specifically The Fate of The Furious. Tim has small quibble about the length of the third act but otherwise - not bad! (Let's see how long that lasts). In this exciting Fast adventure, we're treated to Cuba tourism, Dom Toretto smiling, Dom Toretto f***ing, Dom Toretto turning his back on family and ultimately, Dom Toretto having a son. F9 is starting to make a lot more sense now. Also, The Beatles have inspired a toast rennaisance with Timbo, who will now list his Top Five F***able Vehicles in this movie.

Introducing: Eye of the Duck Feb 26, 2023

Show notes

Do you love movies? Have you ever heard of an eye of the duck scene? Fans of filmmaker David Lynch may be familiar with the idea. Lynch says that a duck’s eye is like a little jewel. It’s in the perfect place, it’s the perfect shape, and a duck just wouldn’t be a duck without it. According to Lynch, every movie has a scene that defines the whole and exploring those scenes is what Eye of the Duck is all about.

Hosted by filmmakers and film enthusiasts Dom Nero and Adam Volerich, Eye of the Duck looks to movies far and wide for their most essential scenes. Remember the chest burster sequence in Alien? That sudden explosion of body horror says everything you need to know about the joltingly, scary 1979 space movie. It’s a classic Eye of the Duck, and there’s many more just like it.

09: Choc Top w/ Abby Howells Feb 22, 2023

Show notes

It's the nineth and last time the fellaz will be watching F9 and they are both delighted and joined by a special guest, Dr Abby Howells - a self-confessed longtime TWIOAT fan and fellow NZ comedian. Dr Howells discusses the etiquette of eating at the cinema and gives an academic and critial look over Vin's acting performance (spoiler: She didn't love it). It is decided that Ludacris should be treated as a title, rather than a name and Abby reveals she takes feedback INCREDIBLY seriously.

08: Battery Life Feb 16, 2023

Show notes

The fellaz are apart and Guy is putting on a brave face. However, truthfully, he not having a good time in this watch of F9. Instead, he is resigned to his fate of clocking in for another workday of watching F9: The Fast Saga (2021). Tim, on the other hand, has a brilliant idea for how laptops and cellphones should be marketed these days.
