Shownotes

We don't need another beer-o...

For this episode, Morgan teaches Tom all about the history of the Mad Max film franchise, starting with 1979's Mad Max starring Mel Gibson, and continuing to 2024's latest instalment.

From surprising music influences to dodgy American dubs, this franchise has had it all over the past few decades.

We also discuss:

  • Mel Gibson's surprising age in What Women Want
  • The 'other' Brian May
  • Why didn't Eminem act again?
  • Mad Max's bizarre timeline
  • Our brand new FACT SMASH jingle(s)!

We’re now also on TikTok!
