Ania Magliano • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #221
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 brilliant comic ANIA MAGLIANO!A lovely breezy and fun episode as you would surely expect, which delves into Ania's experience this year with the Edinburgh Festival (which she smashed, of course) and the mechanics, science and process of it all... If you've been or even performed there you'll surely relate to the whole thing! Otherwise they get into all sorts which spur from films or life or death (or all three), which include all kinds of life lessons and happenings, brushes with the wider world of comedy and various family bits and pieces which truly let us into the world of Ania. Awesome stuff - enjoy, it's a goody.

Jamie Demetriou (Episode 57 Rewind!) • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #220
LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein for a special REWIND edition, as he talks life, death, love and the universe with actor and writer JAMIE DEMETRIOU!Such a good episode from a good while back now, in full face to face style as we used to do back in the day (and starting to do again in the now times). So much to enjoy and a great catch up if you didn't hear this one first time round. Enjoy! Below is the original writeup - NEW EP NEXT WEEK!Be prepared for another smash this week, as Brett and Jamie get into some right mischief beginning with how alike they look (and all ensuing comparisons), the investment of grief into the final euphoria of making ‘the thing’ (whatever ‘the thing’ may be), future plans and the years ahead, season 2 of Stath Lets Flats (which is already causing Jamie grief!), how his pocket money was spent almost entirely in Video Viking, hubbubs and hullaballoos, playing as a kid - what even is it and what are we DOING here?, being a cool kid and rejecting horror films, the fun of watching his dad reacting to films, digital vs analog effects, derivative and non-derivative and all manner of deep tangents and heavy philosophising! Excellence for you this week - you’re gonna enjoy this like crazy…JAMIE on TWITTER!STATH LETS FLATS!STATH LETS FLATS season 2!BRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTERBRETT GOLDSTEIN on INSTAGRAMBRETT GOLDSTEIN on PATREONTED LASSOSOULMATESSUPERBOB (Brett's 2015 feature film)CORNERBOYS with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIPDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOKDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.

Romesh Ranganathan (Episode 93 Rewind!) • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #219
LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein for a special REWIND edition, as he talks life, death, love and the universe with comic and actor ROMESH RANGANATHAN!A lovely oppportunity to catch up with an episode from the archives, which was a true ray of light in a very difficult time. Of course, times are differently difficult now but this opens a window on a time not far from recent memory, where we were looking for laughter and distraction while also dealing with an unprecedented crisis. Naturally things don't dwell on that part - it's more just for context. Below is the original writeup for the episode - enjoy!!!The memories of an actual face to face encounter now seem so old and faded, it’s hard to even consider such an event. Let alone a live show. Can you even imagine? Well, with things as they are still, Brett has brought the podcast vehicle to your door with facemask and gloved hands once again, with guest in tow, the excellent multi-threat comic Romesh over the internet! Proper good times to be had, conversationally roaming freely with reckless abandon that brings to mind those halcyon days of a couple of months ago, including being a national treasure (Romesh won’t have any of it), his Mum being a breakaway star, the thrill of trying to master stuff (especially in lockdown times), working with the family in the picture and what mayhem or paradise that brings, packing for the afterlife, knockoff Care Bears and a HECK ton more. Such a good one, you’ll thoroughly enjoy. Be excellent to each other folks - shouts and love to you all XROMESH ONLINETWITTERHIP HOP SAVED MY LIFETHE MISADVENTURES OF ROMESH RANGANATHANASIAN PROVOCATEURBRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTERBRETT GOLDSTEIN on INSTAGRAMBRETT GOLDSTEIN on PATREONTED LASSOSOULMATESSUPERBOB (Brett's 2015 feature film)CORNERBOYS with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIPDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOKDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.

Yvette Nicole Brown (Episode 137 Rewind!) • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #218
LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein for a special REWIND edition, as he talks life, death, love and the universe with human diamond YVETTE NICOLE BROWN!A chance to catch a debut appearance from the wonderful radiator that is Yvette - below is the original writeup, and this episode was originally broadcast on March 4th, 2021. It was a very interesting time we were living through back then, and this is an episode which gave that instant feelgood appeal while addressing said time sensitive oddities... Which of course, continue their ripples...You will know Yvette from something. That much is sure. She’s been putting in work for a minute now and that work is of the highest order, so whether it’s from television to voiceover to fully fledged superhero movie, she is immensely prolific. She is also an amazing guest, as someone who is very in tune with people vibes while bringing us all closer together in ways we never expected. Just ask Brett and his writing team! What more would you expect from someone who describes people as ‘delicious’? Get to know Yvette so much better throughout this lovely episode including her being a radiator, helping and being a helper, ugly crying and being a recluse. And a blerd. Yvette contains multitudes.

James Acaster (Episode 1 Rewind!) • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #217
LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!Join your host Brett Goldstein for a special REWIND edition, as he talks life, death, love and the universe with debut guest JAMES ACASTER!You often hear the phrase "our guest needs no introduction", by way of saying "you clearly know who this is, right?" - well in this case, it might actually be true as he has appeared on here at least three times! AND has had multiple intros... James is an original friend of the show and was the debut guest, so while Brett handles a ton of non-podcast essentials, this is your chance to listen back to that fabled first episode. It's a treat, as we catch James on the launch of his 4 part Netflix extravaganza which you can still see, but also hear so much of what things were like at that point in time which is a lot of fun. So enjoy! New episodes coming - stay tuned. For now though, enjoy!JAMES ONLINEIMDBTOUR DATESYOUTUBEBRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTERBRETT GOLDSTEIN on INSTAGRAMBRETT GOLDSTEIN on PATREONTED LASSOSOULMATESSUPERBOB (Brett's 2015 feature film)CORNERBOYS with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIPDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOKDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.

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 actor, showrunner and writer QUINTA BRUNSON!STOP – Emmy time... A marvelous chat with Quinta, who you might know from the wonderful Abbott Elementary in more recent / present times. If you don't know Quinta, consider this your introduction to someone who is making power moves in the world of excellent media - she is BUSY but as you'll hear, has a proper grip on things and maintains clarity, sanity and that all important fun-ness that is so necessary in such a high pressure environment (showrunning and all that entails). So take a nice break and enjoy this lovely episode, and of course check Abbott Elementary among her other work!IMDBABBOTT ELEMENTARYA.E. trailerEMMY TIME!QUINTA ON KIMMELTWITTERINSTAGRAMBRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTERBRETT GOLDSTEIN on INSTAGRAMBRETT GOLDSTEIN on PATREONTED LASSOSOULMATESSUPERBOB (Brett's 2015 feature film)CORNERBOYS with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIPDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOKDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.
