Remote Viewing

Fiona, Brett, and Elroy return to the new round table for the first time for a catch up on what they've been watching, reading, and playing for the last few months. Without any real agenda for the episode the team talk about anything and everything for approximately an hour and if you listen REAL HARD you may hear something interesting in-between the team's Optus shilling. Whatever you do, don't listen too hard, the new studio isn't quite at 100% operational ability and the recording quality of this episode isn't as good as it could be - Sorry! It's good to be back though!

In typical Remote Viewing fashion this episode is halloween themed and released just in time to be three days after halloween. Brett and Elroy are joined by RV first timer Emma. The three of them discuss some of the stuff they’ve been watching and then delve into some movie tricks and some treats… Don’t worry, all will be explained in due course! And as an added bonus, this episode is 20 minutes longer than regulation issue episodes usually are - we’re blaming Emma for that!

This episodes sees the return of Leena and the first time appearance of her former Tech Talk pal, turned documentary film maker and train boffin, Ron. They talk all things Gone Girl, and What we do in the shadows, as well as catch up on a bunch of catch up TV. Ron talks about trains a lot and recaps the Girls on Film Festival.

Elroy, Fiona, and Brett return for another book club episode. This time they’re discussing M. R. Carey’s apocalyptic romp The Girl With All the Gifts - spoiler: Everyone absolutely loved it! As always, before getting into the main discussion for the episode the team talk about the bits and bobs that they’ve been catching up with over the last few weeks! Tagged in this episode: Doctor Who, In the Flesh, Parks and Recreations, Lock In, True History of Sci Fi, The Girl With All The Gifts;

In this episode Anna and Elroy welcome Tim to the show. Tim has spent almost every waking moment of the last two weeks running from cinema to cinema watching movie after movie as part of the Melbourne International Film Festival. Anna had her own Robin Williams Film Festival (the content of which Elroy and Tim attempt to guess) and Elroy discovered and devoured the whole first season of Rick & Morty!

It’s finally time to talk about Guardians of the Galaxy and this episode that’s exactly what we do! In fact we did a whole extra ten minutes of talking which nobody will ever get to hear because Elroy missed the record button with his mouse. Don’t worry, everything that was interesting was probably repeated when we started that section over. Daniel returns to the podcast and brings some much needed background regarding the GotG cast while Elroy and Fiona try not to laugh at what a massive comic book nerd he is.

This week's episode is our second "Book-club" episode! A few weeks back Elroy recommended that everyone read The Martian by Andy Weir, and now the team is back to give their verdict on the book. Fiona also got to the cinema to see Snowpiercer. Elroy caught up on one of the big dumb action movies on his watch list (Escape Plan), and Brett manages a spoiler free recap of Game of Thrones! Come for the book club! Stay for the Sylvester Stallone impression! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: Game of Thrones, snowpiercer, escape plan, The Martian;

Another episode of Remote Viewing that comes with completely zero sense of topic. And yet we manage to run over time! Everyone got to the cinema to see Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Fiona went to the drive-in to see How to Train Your Dragon 2. There's book and TV talk too... honestly it's all over the shop this week. NOTE: Episode 71 will be another BookClub episode, we'll be discussing The Martian by Andy Weir so get reading! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: Hunger Games, Red Rising, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, How to Train Your Dragon, Ghosts of Mars, Last Days on Mars;

Episode 69 of Remote Viewing is one of those ones which starts out without a topic, but just through random jibber jabber Brett, Fiona, Anna, and Elroy find themselves focusing on a topic which would have probably benefited greatly from some prior notice. But organised is not how the RV team roll! And to prove the point, this episode is also a week late.

The band is back together this week, by which I mean Fiona, Brett and Elroy are at the mics. The discussion topic for this episode is "Movies that scared you for life" but the team had so much to discuss that it gets pushed all the way into the last segment of the show. Brett lets us know what he thought of Godzilla, Fiona talks about Days of Future Past, and Elroy warns us off some horrible TV and onto a great novel. Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: X-Men, Lake Mungo, Godzilla, Candyman, Virus, The Mist, Horns, London Falling, Retribution Falls;

It's been a great couple of weeks for big blockbusters and in this episode of Remote Viewing Fiona, Tristan and Elroy discuss Amazing Spider-man 2, X-Men:Days of Future Past, and Godzilla. There are spoilers in this episode, but they're kept to a minimum and there's an effort to warn listeners before things get too "give awayie" - Discussion of these three films pretty much fills the whole episode, so we're sorry if we missed out on reading your feedback - We'll attempt to get to it next time! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: X-Men, Godzilla, The Amazing Spiderman 2;

Better late than never, as they say! Episode 66 is a little bit late and a little bit special. For the last few months Fiona has been banging on about ‘The Fiona Show’ so that’s kinda what this episode is. Elroy steps away from the mic and hands the hosting role over to Fi, and Brett just doesn’t show up at all. Instead Fiona is joined by Anna and Leena, who return to Remote Viewing to discuss ‘Being late to the party’ - it’s about those times that you missed the hype and caught up on a tv show, movie or book long after everyone else has moved on! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: Gone Girl, 47 Ronin, Captain America Winter Soldier, My week with Marilyn, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Master Chef, Divergent;

This week’s episode once again comes without a pre-organised discussion topic, which seems to matter less and less these days as Brett, Fiona and Elroy pretty much just cling on the podcast and hope for the best as it careens out of control. Fiona pigged out on movies and the whole crew pig out on snacks… and that’s episode 65 in a nutshell! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: My week with Marilyn, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Peabody and Sherman, i Frankenstein, Muppets most wanted;

It's the regular crew again this episode, but because we delayed the recording of episode 64 until we could all see Captain America: Winter Solider, we're somewhat irregular when it comes to our release schedule these days! Unsurprisingly we spend a large chunk of this episode discussing the first avenger's second solo film - spoiler alert: we really liked it! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: From Dusk Till Dawn, Captain America Winter Soldier, The LEGO movie, Mistaken for Strangers;

Our apologies for the wonky audio quality of this episode, we’re trying out a new set up and there are still some bugs that need to be stomped on. This week we started out without a topic and managed to stumble into talking about the culture of fandom, as well as waffling on about the tv shows and movies that Brett, Fiona and Elroy have watched over the last few weeks. Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: Veronica Mars, Peg + Cat, The Wind Rises, Wolf of Wall Street, Carrie, Luther, Rake;

Brett, Fiona, and Elroy once again turn on some microphones while they ramble on about the TV shows and movies that they’ve been watching. This episode’s discussion topic is “Enjoying Problematic Things” which isn’t “Stuff I Should Be Ashamed to Like” so there’s no mention of Teen Wolf from Brett during the whole conversation.

Remote Viewing returns for 2014 with a rambling episode during which Brett, Fiona and Elroy bang on for an hour about the things that they’ve seen and read over the last couple of months (since they signed off for 2013). Fiona's seen all the movies and read some books, Elroy watched a bunch of TV and read a couple of books, Brett read all books and watched some TV!

Episode 60 is our last for the year! Brett, Elroy and Fiona are joined for this episode by Zenny and they spend it discussing some of our most (and some of our least) favourite movies and TV shows from the past 12 months. There’s a pretty half hearted attempt at picking some winners, but in the end I think we all win… Don’t we! Stay safe, look after one another, and we’ll see you in 2014.

Better late than never, right? This episode found itself stuck in a time vortex during post, which is apt given that we spend most of it discussing Doctor who. Also on the table are the films About Time (appropriately) and Upside-Down. Fiona, Elroy and Brett eventually get around to continuing the discussion topic from the last episode - Musicals - with returning panelist, Ash.

STOP! It’s hammer time! Brett, Fiona, and Elroy share their opinions on the latest offering from Marvel Studios, with Brett and Elroy having pretty opposing views on Thor: The Dark World, while Fiona seems to fall somewhere in the middle. The discussion topic for this episode has the team talking about movie soundtracks! Theme: Hyperdrive, by Deadly Fists of Kung Fu Tagged in this episode: Derren Brown Apocalypse, Thor The Dark World;
