‘The Watchlist’ – Movies, Pop Culture & Meaning in Entertainment

So many shows, so little time. At least it feels like it. Between all the different streaming platforms and the blockbuster movies coming to cinema trying to get audiences back in a post-covid world, we are spoiled for choice on screen – and yet, still “have nothing to watch”.

Deciphering all the voices in entertainment, and how to think about the themes shows and movies raise is tough: enter our new podcast The Watchlist.

Every fortnight on The Watchlist Russ from Reel Dialogue and Hope 103.2’s Afternoons presenter Laura will talk about some of the biggest movie and TV releases of the moment, as well as the cultural conversations they prompt us to have more broadly.

On episode one, it’s all about the Oscars, the ongoing impact of “the slap” and what influence Hollywood’s “night of nights” really has on what we watch and the social movements we get behind.
