Well before superheroes dominated the box office, back in 1979 crime fighting had really gone to the dogs. More specifically, C.H.O.M.P.S.

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

The Canine Home Protection System, C.H.O.M.P.S. is a robot dog created by Wesley Eure's Brian Foster for Conrad Bain's Ralp[h Norton. C.H.O.M.P.S. has super strength, x-ray vision and a doggo sense to detect crimes being committed, does he manage to prevent being kidnapped by a Mr Burns type, Jim Backus' Mr Gibbs?

Did Hanna/Barbera's only live action effort live up to our memory or were we left asking “who let the dogs out?”

Brose chats with the former CEO of FAI films Shaun Levin, the company that developed and produced FernGully: The Last Rainforest

Mar 5, 2020

Look deeper into Australian rainforests and you’ll find a secret world where fairies call the trees home but when logging and pollution threaten their way of life. They need help, but can the fairies trust a human? Listen to our FernGully: The Last Rainforest episode to find out!

Like a force of nature. Brose rallies help from Jarrod and, fresh off the couch of the Kelly Clarkson Show, cartoonist Kayla Coombs! This week's panel takes us all the way back to 1992 to chat the Australian-American animated co-production starring Samantha Mathis, Christian Slater and the late, great Mr Robin Williams.

Once you’ve listened, download our bonus companion episode as Brose chats with the former CEO of FAI films Shaun Levin.

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

This week is The Legend of Billie Jean starring everyone's favourite Supergirl; Helen Slater! Co-starring Christian Slater (no relation), Yeardley Smith and Dean Stockwell, discover why this film has become a cult classic!

Feb 27, 2020

While Sonic the Hedgehog runs amok internationally at the box office (in cinemas NOW), let us take you all the way back to 1993 for the first film ever adapted from a video game: Super Mario Bros.

The movie poster promised 'This Ain’t No Game' and boy o boy, were they not kidding! The Mario Brothers (Luigi Mario and, that’s right, that makes Mario’s full name Mario Mario) travel to another dimension to rescue a princess from the evil dictator King Koopa and stop him from taking over the world.

Can Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo save this flick from going down the drain? Nope.

Feb 26, 2020

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

This week is rarely seen but revolutionary Robert Townsend's ambitious The Meteor Man. A black super hero dealing with black issues and not a single jungle or desert plain in sight!

Townsend is joined by Mufasa and Rafiki (James Earl Jones and Robert Guilliame), Marla Gibbs, Eddie Griffin, Don Cheadle and a who's who of African-American entertainers of the 90s.

Feb 20, 2020

Harley Quinn was dumped by The Joker, so we at Chatflix have sat down in front of our microphones to unpack our reactions to Cathy Yan’s NEW release; Birds of Prey And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (boy, that’s a mouthful!) in a SPOILER filled chat.

Brose assembles a team just like Margot Robbie's Cupid of Crime; except comic tragic Jarrod isn’t an orphan bent on revenge and first timer (and Harley Quinn super fan) Kayleigh’s voice won’t shatter your ears drums (or your martini glass).

So grab a hair tie and unwrap your egg sandwich because we’re chatting BOP now!

Feb 19, 2020

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

Kicking off with Condorman. You know the song;

Condorman, Condorman, does whatever a Condor can... wait! That might be wrong. What is right is that is stars a pre-West End darling Michael Crawford as cartoonist come super hero fighting a villain played by Hollywood legend Oliver Reed alongside unofficial Bond Girl Barbara Carrera. No seriously, Oliver Reed is in Condorman.

Does Condorman take flight all these years later? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Jan 31, 2020

This week Jarrod and Brose chat about what is coming u on ChatFlix in 2020!

The year Pacific Rim, Edge of Tomorrow, Reign of Fire are all set... is this the year for ChatFlix to finally chat Reign of Fire?

Party in the city where the heat is on.

All night, on the beach to the break of dawn…

Welcome to Maimi... in the 90s; when action comedies were rated R and shot loose and from the hip!

Yes, this week is Bad Boys; Michale Bay’s best action comedy starring three sitcom stars (Will Smith, Martin Lawrence and Tea Leoni) and featuring two cast members from The Sopranos (Joe Pantoliano and Michale Imperioli)! Who were you expecting? Dana Carvey and Jon Lovitz?

Brose rides with Shaun and Looch dies with Jazz coz it’s Bad Boys for Chatflix. 

Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do? You’re going to download us into your ear holes.

Jan 18, 2020

Brose and Jarrod sit down to chat everything 2019. The episodes, the movies and... well... the episodes and movies!

Enjoy and look out for our look forward into 2020 next week.

Jan 1, 2020

Before Jumanji levelled up to find new life as a TRON-like video game it originally made its way into 90’s kids hearts as a good old fashioned Board Game.

Brose is your Game Master and Stu and Caity have their playing pieces selected and it’s time to roll the dice as we take you back to 1995 to chat Joe Johnston’s Jumanji.

The 90’s didn’t have The Rock or Kevin Hart, instead we were treated to Robin Williams and Bonnie Hunt running around keeping a young Kirsten Dunst safe from some early CGI animals. Are you game enough to listen?

Dec 24, 2019

The phantom menaced, the clones attacked and Sith sought revenge. We had new hope, the Empire struck back (HARD) and the Jedi managed to return. And then the Force awakened, we witnessed the last Jedi and now Skywalker has risen - and it only took 42 years too!

This week Trevor, Jarrod, Adam and Brose (and Eddie) give their response to the opening of the 9th and final film (at this stage) of the Skywalker Saga.

We chat Daisy Ridley, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver and everyone else in JJ Abrams return to the franchise.

They have recruited their NEWEST member - Brose! (otherwise known as Podcast Spice pastedGraphic.png) to chat about their love of the Spice Girls and their love of Spice World (The Movie)! Viva Forever!! 

They discuss the performances of all the girls; Geri, Mel B, Mel C, Emma & Victoria and; the extensive collection of cameos like Richard E Grant, Alan Cumming, Richard O Brien, Roger Moore and Bob Hoskins, the real Bob Hoskins damnit!

Stop! And Say You’ll Be There.

Dec 3, 2019

This week Jarrod takes a small holiday to Beverly Hills and teams up with local law enforcement Brose and Shaun to chat one of Eddie Murphy's early hits. Don't believe me? GTFOH!

We chat the Honourable Judge Reinhold, John Ashton (not John Astin!), Ronny Cox, Steven Berkhoff, Lisa Eilbacher, Jonathan "Breaking Bad" Banks and even Sylvester Stallone! (Wait, what? He's not even IN this film!)

Join us as we relive this action/comedy and the work of Martin Brest and the early days of Simpson and Bruckheimer.

Nov 27, 2019

Yes, this week we are going back! Back too the future!

Brose is joined by Sophie, Cable and Looch to chat all things futuristic. Nike Mags? Check! Flying cars? Check! Fancy pepsi bottles? Check! Ooh La La magazine? You better believe it!

The sequel that is also the first film but parts of this film are actually inside the first film, not actually the first film, featuring the return of Michael J Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Thomas F. Wilson, James Tolkan and Crispin Glover... well... kind of... oops.... don't sue!

Jump into your Delorean, and, if it's a time machine one, set your target date to 1989 and enjoy the ride!

Fire the Cannons! Cannon Films that is! Shaun and Brose team-up to look at the big gun talent Golan and Globus lured to Cannon during their command of the Cannon empire in our newest line of Chatflix Minis.

In our final Cannon film we look at the Van Damme film Cyborg. Shaun has a lot affection for this little film that could, Brose just thinks it's a little film that didn't! An interesting back story for the production of this film and the effects of one of Cannon's biggest egos ever.

Nov 7, 2019

Fire the cannons! Cannon FIlms that is! Shaun and Brose team up to look at the big gun talent Golan and Globus lured to Cannon during their command of the Cannon Empire in our newest series of ChatFlix Minis.

Week Three: The Delta Force.

As a result of a terrible airline hi-jacking, Chuck Norris retaliates by assembling The Delta Force to save the day. Well.. technically it’s probably more Lee Marvin’s idea and because Norris has retired and Marvin has to get Norris to come out of retirement… but you get where we’re coming from: something bad happens, then The Delta Force comes along and and something bad happens to the bad thing (with motorbikes with rocket launchers mounted on their handlebars no less!).

Nov 5, 2019

On your feet soldier! Pack the essentials because Chatflix is travelling back to the past! It’s Los Angeles 1984 or bust! Clothing optional; except for a cool pair of sunnies… but you can pick them up once we get there…

Brose has assembled a panel of unstoppable chatterers to look at James Cameron’s sci-fi classic, The Terminator. James and Angus have the concept of Fate, Cyborg Assassins vs Waitressing and oncoming storms in their laser targeted sights.

Linda Hamilton plays the mother to humanity, or as the T-101 calls her: Sarah Connor. There’s back up from Michael Biehn’s pipe bomb making Kyle Reece. And the almost sharklike Schwarzenegger, who births the phrase “I’ll be back” without ever breaking a sweat.

Fire the Cannons! Cannon Films that is! Shaun and Brose team-up to look at the big gun talent Golan and Globus lured to Cannon during their command of the Cannon empire in our newest line of Chatflix Minis.

Before the Turtles thrust Ninja into the zeitgeist and long before Tom Cruise even dreamed of being The Last Samurai, Michael Dudikoff was the American Ninja! Would you believe Dudikoff had no martial arts training before he made this film? We would!

Oct 29, 2019

With previous ChatFlix episodes looking at a crazed clown, a zombie apocalypse and a psycho camp killer, this week we lock the door, run upstairs and hide in a closet because now it’s time to chat the 1978 John Carpenter classic: Halloween! 

Babysitter Brose has planned pumpkin carving activities to distract Shaun and Jarrod from the mental hospital escapee Michael Myers, who looks an awful lot like the dude from Star Trek with no make up!
