Winkie's Diner Podcast

Hi all! This is a great episode where we talk about Harry's favorite film of 2019, The Lighthouse, and Breton brings the work of (overrated?) maestro James Cameron to compare. Stay tuned for the end of the episode, where there are some announcements about the future of the podcast! Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod

It's the end of the year, and decade. So instead of our normal routine we each pick some single favourites (game, movie, and album) for both the year and the decade. Trying to focus on stuff we've both consumed. Please enjoy and maybe give us the fabulous holiday gift of a rating and subscription. We'll be back after a short break in the new year with lots more great podcasts. Till then, Happy New Year!

This week we talked about Disney Plus (it was topical at the time!) Harry brings the service's new golden child The Mandalorian and Breton brings the classic Disney embarrassment The Black Cauldron.

This week Breton manufactured a morbid experiment - how do some of the popular choices for Best Family Guy episodes compare to the consensus Worst Classic Simpsons episodes?

Spooky season comes to this climactic close in November.

On this episode we talk about The Love Guru and Shin Godzilla for some reason! Sorry this was late, Breton started school again and I was on vacation. But this is a fun one to make up for it. Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod Next week we'll be discussing: Ghosts of Mars and The Thing.

We do 90s cyberpunk films! Breton brings Hackers and Harry brings Strange Days. We kind of break the format a bit, but who cares. All sorts of bonus conversation, including a now very untopical reaction to the Cats trailer. Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod Next week we'll be discussing: Shin Godzilla and The Love Guru for some dang reason.

It's a rare all anime episode folks. Bretons brings Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Harry brings Gundaom 080: War in Pocket. Discussions about grim-dark, psychedelic comics, science fiction, and weird sterile settings abound. Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod Next week we'll be discussing: Strange Days and Hackers.

It's a double bill of recent movies about lady musicians this week! We contrast the goofily preachy Vox Lux with the psychological drama of Her Smell. Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod Next week we'll be discussing Madoka Magica and Gundam 080 War in Pocket.

We threatened it, here it is: all mewithoutyou all episode! Next episode we'll be talking about the films Vox Lux and Her Smell if you'd like to follow along. Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod

It's a musical bonanza! Harry brings the Jacques Demy film Young Girls of Rochefort and Breton brings famed Oscar loser La La Land. Really particular conversations about queer cinema and film stocks abound! Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod

Harry brings the John Carpenter film Village of the Damned and Breton brings Xavier Renegade Angel. Listen to our minds dissolve in real time! Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod

Breton brings the film Mishima, and Harry brings the action film Bunraku as a contrast. We go deep on the history and execution of these two extremely different western interpretations of Japanese art.

It's a Steve Buscemi episode baby!!! We talk Final Fantasy: Spirits Within and Ghost world. Bonus talk includes new anime, the Criterion Channel, and how much of a bummer that new Star Wars teaser is. Show Twitter: twitter.com/winkiespod

Honestly this might have our hottest take yet in it. We cross our wires and bring two things we feel complicated about. One is the Wuxia epic Hero, the other is Bioshock Infinite. We like Bioshock more probably. We talk cinematography, production design, nationalism, and butcher philosophy. Show Twitter: https://twitter.com/winkiespod

Harry (and his bad mic cable)brings the manga Delicious in Dungeon and Breton brings the cinematic travesty The Hobbit: Battle of Five Armies. It's an episode definitely. Probably. Sorry for that mic cable.

It's a sleepy music episode. Harry brings Touche Amore's album Stage Four, and Breton brings mewithoutyou's [Untitled]. We wind up spending a fair amount of time investigating these emotional post hardcore projects.
