Lisa sez: "Cut the cord peoples!"

Brian sez: "Don't forget your animated options"

Dean sez: "Whats a Hulu?" 

Your intrepid reporters from the global resources of the vast Killer Casting Network (KCN) deep dive what is currently keeping them, up way too late, bed-less, bingeing and burning bits & bytes ("But honey ... just one more episode .... PUHlease ?")

Lisa gives a big plug for Reservation Dogs (well she WOULD wouldn't she, coz she was part of the casting team for the pilot !) But hey ... charity starts at home, right ? Also you can hear her thoughts on; The Handmaids Tale, a crazy Nicole Kidman in Nine Perfect Strangers , Y The Last Man, Patton Oswalt in Marvel's animated 'Modok'. But wait ! #notdoneyet ... she also gives shoutouts to 'The Great' with Elle Fanning and Nic Hoult, Alex Garland's 'Devs', The TV re-boot of Nic Hornsby's 'High Fidelity' starring Zoe Kravitz, the sexy/sad Brit offering of Normal People' and the adapted-from-the-podcast 'American Crime Story: Impeachment' covering the Clinton/Lewinsky saga.

Brian has been on an animated tear (That's 'tear' ... not 'tear') so he sketches out why you should watch Solar Opposites from Justin Roiland the creator of Rick and Morty and lays out the result of the love child between Kiwi geniuses Jermaine Clement and Taika Waititi .. that would be the vampire mockumentary comedy 'What We Do in the Shadows'

Dean (with no Hulu in Australia) raids his tagged items in the Aussie-based Stan Disney+ and  Binge platforms to come up with the gripping British crime drama 'Vigil'. He also likes The White Lotus and is rewatching the classic Working Dog Productions' razor sharp satire 'Utopia' (which is scarily accurate to his corporate day job)

Dea) WAS going to search up all of the trailers for these shows, to save YOU the trouble, but has decided he cant be arsed and you can do it yourselves. So on that note ... we'll see you on the socials!

Welcome to Deeper Cuts: The Soundtrack Sessions - a three-episode miniseries which finds the Deeper Cuts trio looking at the the intersection between film and music while looking at albums that were meaningful to one of them.

When favourite films and favourite soundtracks converge at exactly the right time in our lives, magic happens! In Shannon's case, this was also a time when she worked in a video store with her fellow movie and music tastemakers among the all-female staff, so she had the additional joy of reveling in pop culture banter at the retail level, experiencing geek wisdom, and a sense of coolness and belonging. A freshman in high school at the time, the High Fidelity movie and its accompanying soundtrack provided young Shannon with her very own mixtape to an impressionable time and helped create a kind of affinity with the characters in the movie, with their sense of taste, style, and expression - snark and snobbery included. But what did Graeme and Rob make of the High Fidelity soundtrack as a listening experience? Did they ring it up at the till, or banish it to the mall? Explore the answer here in our second episode in the Deeper Cuts soundtrack mini-series!

Our Spotify Playlist covers each episode of this miniseries. And don't forget to talk to us on Twitter (@deepercutscast) and to rate and review us wherever you get your podcasts!

The guys discuss their past weeks in gaming, and their Top 5 in varied topics.

Following an A.V. Club Q&A about favorite-ever mixtapes, the SportsAlcohol.com mixtape braintrust got together to reminisce about our mixtape past: tips, tricks, mishaps, and more from a different era of music consumption. So root around your closet, fish out your favorite, and listen along!

Continuing our new trend of getting personal about film, we take it to a whole new level in this off the rails vod-cast tackling that most personal of experiences: heartbreak. Using the sharp examples of 3 classic male-centric rom-coms, Better Off Dead, High Fidelity & Forgetting Sarah Marshall, we examine our own recent histories with romance and break-ups, and get to the heart of why these particular films are the best example of it in regards to our own experiences. Plus, drunken ribbing, insults and threats against personal safety. As promised, a whole new (hilarious) level.

Laszlo Hetzman discusses cost effective high fidelity simulation training for performance in pre-hospital and hospital critical care. One the great benefits of simulation training is the diversity of training it provides for all levels of experience. Based on his own hugely positive experiences of simulation, Laszlo was compelled to implement effective simulation in his country. The trouble was budget constraints. However, with a little bit of lateral thinking, Laszlo will show you that low budget does not necessarily mean low fidelity. Laszlo discusses the three areas of fidelity that are needed to have a successful simulation. These are equipment, environmental and psychological fidelity. Life like equipment, life like environment and a strong fiction contract. The later referring to the agreement that is held between all participants and trainers that the plastic mannikin they are working on is a real-life dying patient that they must help. Laszlo divulges seven tips and tricks he has developed to make training with any budget effective and to help sign the fiction contract for less! First, use real stories in your scenarios. Get credible and well-prepared instructors - they paint the picture of the training scenario. With good instructors it is possible to minimise “God’s voice” (instructions coming from people external to the scenario.) It is useful to use participants voices, or cheap applications to deliver vital signs, and having distractions/actors to steer the scenario. Similarly, background noise (be it farm noise, train stations or industrial sounds) can be found for nothing on YouTube and enhances the emotions of the situation. Clothing is important – Laszlo stresses everyone in the scenario should be dressed up to resemble the role they are playing. Additionally, models and mannikins can be altered cheapy and easily using whatever is lying around the ward or house. On the same theme, think outside the box when considering equipment. DIY is a magical thing. Laszlo describes how he has used useless junk to do everything from making ultrasound probes to simulating a thoracotomy. Finally, be sure there are no spoilers. Help all participants to be believable with their actions and words and to stay in character to enhance the experience for all. Follow these simple tips to make all simulation experiences the best they can be. As Laszlo says, medium fidelity rules.

The Top 5 reasons that people who are in love with the 2000 romantic comedy-drama, "High Fidelity," need to break up with it:

1. The main character, Rob Gordon, played by John Cusack, is a mopey man-child who doesn't change, but the movie pretends he does.

2. Rob annoyingly talks into the camera the whole time. The makers of this movie have never heard of the fourth wall.

3. The movie is just a series of scenes where Rob whines about breakups.

4. The audience is supposed to want to root for Rob, but they aren't shown anything that makes them want to. In fact, what they are shown makes them want to root against him.

5. Rob makes Top 5 lists about everything.

We discuss which child stars belong in the Haim Grave, Lisa Bonet's Kravitzstonian accent and Bruce Springsteen's cameo as himself, which is one of the most painful and awkward moments in cinema history.
