    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the hilarious comic LIZA TREYGER!

    Liza is not only incredibly funny and fun but also a really great hang, which makes this episode a real treat from start to end. You may have seen her Netflix special 'Night Owl' by now, or heard the podcast 'That's Messed Up: An SVU Podcast', but if not you'll soon be making those searches and adding said items to your watch and want lists. From living the idyllic New York life, to standup and process, to filming the special, to her trinkets and stickers collection, we have a lot to enjoy right here and it is a ray of sunshine upon you whatever weather you're looking at.

    Sean McLoughlin – JUDGEMENT DAY! (White Elephant show touring now) • #338

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe AGAIN (only this time under much more intense existential circumstances) with the hilarious comic SEAN MCLOUGHLIN! JUDGEMENT DAY!

    With a couple of appearances in the bag for Sean, we find him in a cool calm space, ready to accept his judgement from above (or below, or middle - whatever your given outlook). As such, it's a really great episode which gets into some very interesting actual comedy chat, the real behind the scenes and detailed stuff. The comedy to film ratio is met perfectly though, and it is not all full on (what some call) inside baseball. A lovely episode to warm up your week, and be sure to catch Sean on tour if he is nearby! Enjoy X

    Jeanette Epps (NASA Astronaut / Aerospace Engineer) • #337

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the intergalactic planetary official NASA Astronaut JEANETTE EPPS!

    Call it a curveball but you have our word, this episode (Epps-isode) is a wonderful one, and a totally perfect temporary departure from your regularly scheduled guest list! Jeanette is a delightful presence and utterly essential listening for anyone who is in the least bit interested in space and astronaut life. You'll hear how the whole thing came together but take comfort in knowing that all pertinent questions get answered (not just the film ones - like actual space logistics and how it all works up there), and by the end you'll be a definite pal of Jeanette's and hopefully follow her adventures from here on. Really lovely stuff from someone who's been putting in work and time into all sorts of space research, as well as literally doing a couple of stints living underwater and in a cave. But that's for you to hear more about. ENJOY!

    Mark Simmons (Quip Off The Mark / Fringe / Mock The Week) • #336

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the very funny comic who specializes in the one liner, it's MARK SIMMONS!

    ...but naturally does not ONLY work in one liners! Mark's a fabulous comic who has a great time with Brett, calling back a chemistry they formulated back in the days doing comedy together in some pretty odd places. You'll hear all about that of course, as well as Mark's experience with performing for a naked audience (was he also naked? you'll find out), his new special, run-ins with the spirit world and overall just a delightful episode's worth of goodies. You shall enjoy.

    Mackenzie Barmen (TikTok / sketch comic genius) • #335

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the modern day legend in sketch comedy MACKENZIE BARMEN!

    For some folk, seeing 'TikTok' in the title might seem strange especially if you do not engage with the app. Thankfully for everyone, Mackenzie's amazing and hilarious sketchwork is available on browsers in general if you are not an app download enthusiast and it is strongly recommended to familiarise yourself! From physical embodiment of social media platforms to general character studies, Mackenzie has managed to zero in on something so insightful with such control and observation, and as a guest and friend of the show you'll soon become her friend too (if you are not already). From family dynamics, to process, to career talk, to solo scares, and all the world besides, you will absolutely love this one even if Mackenzie's name is not in your immediate eyeline. Enjoy!

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the prolific and well credited filmmaker and actor LEIGH WHANNELL!

    A really lovely chat with someone who you will very likely know from films that have come up many times on this very podcast, so you know you're in for some goodness here... A delightfully self deprecating (in the best ways) and entertaining catch up which covers so much, including but not limited to working with James Wan, making films out of pocket and how to handle low budgets, creating a millennial Freddie Krueger, Insidious and Saw and working on such franchises, devilish alchemy, creative uncoupling, healthy fear of disease and the list goes on! And if you came here for an ethereal Sisyphian tone poem, we've got ya covered. OH ALSO - spoiler bits for Invisible Man where he runs through a scene as he wrote it (which is maybe not so suitable for folk of sensitive disposition) - just so you know. Never let death get in the way of a dollar! Enjoy!

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the very funny and super versatile actor and voice talent JOSH GAD!

    A wonderful catch up with Josh, a first timer on the podcast who is immediately at home and fits in perfectly from jump. He and Brett get into all of it, including his full on animation musical series Central Park, his early inclusion in The Book Of Mormon (some folk are still on the team 15 years later), process, no time for self reflection, legacy over career, chasing scares, and a truly moving moment pertaining to birds. Enjoy his gradual Cockney accent throughout the episode too! DASS IT DEN BRUV. Have fun!

    Ego Nwodim (SNL / Scrambled / It's Florida, Man) • #332

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the excellent and hilarious comic actor EGO NWODIM!

    If you're familiar with Saturday Night Live you'll have surely seen Ego's fine work by now, and of course it comes up in this episode... A source of fascination for a lot of folks interested in comedy due to it's intense behind the scenes process, SNL is an institution from which so many amazing talents have emerged. Ego has been hard at work on a ton of other projects too, and in this delightful ep you'll hear about those as well as work processes, wellness and health solutions, seeking sun like a cat, dream jobs, not dabbling with demons, being an emotional Pisces, slice of life vs heist films, suavamente, crying as a strength over a weakness, and MORE! Ego is putting this WHOLE TOWN in her rearview! Enjoy.

    Buddy Peace Xmas Mix 2024! • #331

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he enjoys a well earned one week break, and hands the keys to show producer BUDDY PEACE for a heavy exclusive Xmas mixtape!

    As Brett's Xmas gift to me, and therefore to you all, he gives me the floor to present an exclusive mixtape as a one-off one week diversion from the usual format and programming. In my other life I am a DJ, beatmaker / producer and severe Hip Hop nerd, and what you're about to listen to is a selection of music I've produced. I've included some debuts / premiers (and you'll be the first to hear some of these), a couple of my scratch sections, some one-off joints and jams, and music featuring guests and collaborators which I hope you enjoy. I've included a couple of brief narrations too so hopefully they'll give you a road map of sorts - I didn't do that last year! Hit me up with any questions etc too, I'll holler if and when I can... So please enjoy, and thank you ever so much for your ears and eyes - it is such a pleasure to work on this podcast with Brett and I am honoured and grateful to be a part of the team. Love to you all and enjoy whatever this festive season brings to you! /// Buddy ✌🏼 XXX

    LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the fascinating and awesome writer, playwright and producer JACK THORNE!

    Jack is one of the most busy behind-the-scenes folks in the business, having worked on or generated so many of the great projects out there in the wide world. He's also someone who you don't always hear from, so this is a rare treat to get inside the mind of someone who doesn't often chat openly about all things writing and production... Hear about all things including intimidating projects, a non wifi work ethic, the chasm of despair, setting the tone, sad times in Luton, Barry Norman, autism and the TV Access Project, the Whoopi defence and depressing things on Channel 4! So much. ENJOY!

    Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the hilarious and awesome comic, actor and writer HASAN MINHAJ!

    A lovely episode featuring someone big in the game, from a good handful of comedy specials to appearances in films like the recent hit 'It Ends WIth Us' - you can expect a proper goody right here. You can also expect talk upon crafting a comedy special and the mechanics of the whole damn thing, tour feels, to crowd work or not crowd work, the opposite of Toy Story, the current lack of moustache mischief, physical media collections, overwatched films, and so much more. A paintcan to the head, you kiddin' me? ENJOY!
