Easy Riders Raging Podcast

Now in our fourth series, we're back and this time around we're talking 1980s films of all shapes and sizes. But not just that, we've got eps on 80s TV, and music videos and more! As ever our episodes include trademark features such as Recastarama (where we recast the film using current actors) and Who Am I (where we work out who we would be in the film). Lots of fun to be had. [Our 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and 1970s series are also available]

Now displaying: March, 2024

From Star Wars to Saturday Night Fever, to The Godfather and Grease, Annie Hall and Alien, the 1970s was THE decade for great movies. Here at Easy Riders Raging Podcast we're looking back at all the classics of the decade, discussing the films of Scorsese, Friedkin, Coppola, Altman, De Palma and many many more. Aside from our discussions, each episode includes some of our trademark features such as Recastarama (where we recast the film using current actors) and Who Am I (where we work out who we would be in the film). Lots of fun to be had. [Our 1960s series is also available]

47- Blackadder: The Cavalier Years (1980s) 0
Mar 24, 2024

Off with your head. Dance til you're dead. In this episode Paul and I continue our ongoing Blackadder coverage, by discussing the show's 1989 Red Nose Day special. And since the special is only about 15 minutes long, we also find the time to discuss how we feel about the British royal family, in particular King Prince Charles...

46- The Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi (1980s) 0
Mar 23, 2024

This week's episode was recorded a long time ago (2015) in a galaxy far, far away (Wood Green, North London). What we have here is two Star Wars conversations- with Paul and I discussing 'The Empire Strikes Back' and me and Jev talking about 'Return of the Jedi'- originally released on my OG podcast, the SpielbergPod. And listening back to these, 2015 was an interesting time to be a Star Wars fan as we are all eagerly awaited the release of 'The Force Awakens' and the start of the sequel trilogy (oh, what a journey we were about to begin...).

45- The King of Comedy (1980s, Martin Scorsese #7) 0
Mar 17, 2024

In this episode- recorded all the way back in 2022 ("The best things come to those who wait" - Heinz Ketchup) - Kieran and I discuss the Martin Scorsese film, 'The King of Comedy', following Kieran's first-time watch of this. You can expect comparisons to 'Taxi Driver' and even more comparisons to 'Joker' from Todd Phillips.

44- Milky Way: Red Car Blue Car (1980s) 0
Mar 10, 2024

In this episode- again from our Boxing Day recording sesh- Lee, Amanda and I discuss the iconic 'the red car and the blue car had a race' commercial for mid-tier chocolate bar Milky Way.

As you would imagine, we spend most of the episode discussing chocolate bars we like/ dislike.

43- Toys R Us: Magical Place (1980s) 0
Mar 10, 2024

In this episode, recorded live and in person with my siblings (Amanda and Lee) on Boxing Day 2023, we discuss the 1989 'Magical Place' advert for Toys R Us.
