What’s 2025's Film of the Year? A Mega-Pod!

Do you know what freedom is? Talking about films for 2 hours. Like Tom Cruise.

It's a bumper episode today and we've assembled an all-star panel for it. Bankole is joined by Sherin from Geek Girl Riot, making her debut, and the returning Eyo and William, for an in-depth conversation about two of 2025's best and most heralded films: Paul Thomas Anderson's 'One Battle After Another' and Ryan Coogler's 'Sinners' (20:35). Later, they recommend some of their other favourites from the year, including their best “3-star film”, best genre film and the best film they wish more people saw (1:41:40). So, remember the password, settle down and enjoy the conversation (this isn't us inviting you in btw!).
