Earlier this month, we lost one of the most significant figures in the history of the film industry, Roger Corman.

Corman's illustrious career can't be narrowed down to three films, so we opted to pick three of his directorial films that helped shape American pop culture.

We start with his 1960 gem Little Shop Of Horrors, the gold standard for independent filmmaking and the movie that sparked a decades-long running Broadway play and a very successful musical adaptation.

Corman's passion project, The Intruder, highlights the filmmaker's deeper side as an artist. The raw and horrific film stands out against most of his directorial and production work.

Lastly, we take a trip to the late 1960s with The Trip - a film about… well, tripping. Tripping balls, in fact! LSD!

Join us as Nick and Bella discuss Corman's brilliant work and wildly entertaining stories about the making of these films.

In preparation for the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Nick & Bella go deep into the wasteland of the Mad Max Universe.

In this episode, we explore the three best films of the franchise (thus far). We start with the scrappy, earnest Ausploitation film that started all the madness: Mad Max.

If indie gems aren’t your bag, but kinky leather outfits are - we’ve got you covered. Mad Max 2 (also known as The Road Warrior) is second on the docket. We explore the layers added to George Miller’s world and the leaps he made in his visual storytelling.

Finally, we finished the episode with the modern classic (yes, we went there) Mad Max: Fury Road. What is there to say? Well… a lot. Listen and let us know what you think!

In part two of our Mother's Day Celebration, Nick & Bella discuss three more memorable mother characters.

Claudine, starring the legendary Diahann Carroll, was a boundary-pushing film about a mother of six navigating the welfare system. The film also stars a sweaty, studly James Earl Jones.

Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal knocked it out of the park with her directorial debut, The Lost Daughter. Join Bella as she explores the touchy but important themes in this Olivia Colman drama.

Finally, another actress turned director: the great Penny Marshall's film Riding In Cars With Boys has a little bit of everything. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll dance - and you'll fall in love with Drew Barrymore all over again!
