Clara Amfo • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #191
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 wonderful presenter, broadcaster and podcaster CLARA AMFO!A true grin-inducing glory of an episode as Brett catches up with Clara, with pure fun from start to end (though, of course, mixed in with some of that old death and existence stuff for some extra balance, you know how we do). A perfect summary of loads of what we know and love of Clara, bringing in gems and treasures from her life in front of the lens and mic, including some of the pure madness of going live from the red carpet, being a very self aware empath, working with and conducting so many energies, being the cat from that old curiosity chestnut, coriander (aka The Devil's Herb), local memories and fun times at the cinema. Wonderful, you're gonna truly love this one - and Clara obviously. Enjoy!CLARA LINKSONLINETHIS CITY podcastINSTAGRAMBBCBRETT 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.

Paul Feig • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #190
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 amazing writer, director and comic PAUL FEIG!You have a huge amount of portals into the incredible work of Paul, but one that you will be very familiar with through your dedicated listening to this podcast will be Bridesmaids. Well, even that frequent flyer of the podcast is a mere tip of an icerberg in an ocean crammed with icebergs (okay, analogy over) as Paul has been involved with an immense amount of hilarious and brilliant movies in his career, alongside authoring a ton of books and dabbling with standup in the 80s too. This is an ace chance to catch up with he and Brett to hear about his own movie life and loves, past projects, forthcoming goodies and extra curricular activities! Much enjoyment.

Joey King • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #189
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 one of the busiest actors in the game, it’s the wonderful JOEY KING!Joey’s been acting seemingly non stop since the age of four years old - an incredible feat and true display of reserve, energy and skill to have been doing it solid for a couple of decades since. This episode is such a delight, and a perfect chance to get to know her in a genuinely giddy and fun setting. Everything from eerie on set happenings, reincarnation puzzles, favourite relatives (jk), a dog named Jesse James (who you’ll meet, dont worry), DVD binders, unique answers which are episode debuts, Disney character reveals and brisket. Plenty of brisket. So much that the word won’t make sense anymore. A beauty of an episode, enjoy!JOEY LINKSIMDBTWITTERINSTAGRAMBULLET TRAINBRETT 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 screenwriter, producer, director, comic and worlds more, JUDD APATOW!Judd is an unstoppable force behind a huge amount of cinematic and streaming greatness over the past decades, and you will surely know his work even if you are yet to be acquainted with the man himself. Superbad, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Bridesmaids, and so many more, Judd’s had a part to play in it all. So you can expect a deep, anecdote filled and wisdom topped banger of an episode right here, friends - and just have a quick glance over on IMDB to knowledge yourself before listening - the list is strong… Tons to enjoy as you’ll soon find out, so indulge!Check Judd's book 'Sicker In The Head' too!JUDD LINKSIMDBTWITTERINSTAGRAMBRETT 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.

Mark Frost • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #187
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 screenwriter, playwright, author and TWIN PEAKS co-creator MARK FROST!My my… From some of the earliest episodes of this podcast you will have clocked that Brett is - let’s say - more than a little interested in the Twin Peaks franchise. And why wouldn’t he be - it’s a gift that keeps on giving and a huge cultural highlight in serial viewing which opened a huge amount of doors in television to follow, creatively and otherwise. So what a treat it is that Brett now speaks to its co-creator Mark Frost, who worked with David Lynch (and of course, the immaculate cast) in creating one of the best pieces of television in decades. Without harping on too much, just know that this one’s a proper goody, and nuggets of gold are contained within so please do take some time with it and enjoy. Whether you loved or are oblivious to Twin Peaks and Frost’s other work (including a stint on Hill Street Blues to name one), you will get a lot from this one. And Brett will be so happy too. Bless him. Damn fine episode.

Ellie Taylor • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #186
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 comic, author, actor and host ELLIE TAYLOR!Ellie is smashing every angle of all elements listed above, and if you are yet to be acquainted to Ellie, prepare to make a great friend on this very podcast. You may know her from playing Sassy in Ted Lasso, or perhaps recently hosting The Great Pottery Throwdown, but her entire 'ography is incredible and highly recommended! In this case though, Ellie goes into this whole life and film thing, with some valuable commentary on all things celluloid and existential including intimate scenes in films and the intricacies therein, her experience with post natal depression (a subject covered in her book 'My Child And Other Mistakes'), films which are problematic in hindsight and not getting along with horror. If you know Ellie, you know this will be a good time - if not, as said, prepare to make a new pal.

Rich Wilson • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #184
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 comic, podcaster and writer RICH WILSON!I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that Rich and Brett go back a while in their real life friendship too. A lovely episode which is of course fueled by Rich’s warm and attentive ear and attitude, which you yourself might have become friends with in listening to his mental health / comedy podcast ‘Insane In The Men Brain’ (award for best title right there) - so it’s fascinating to hear about the movies that make Rich do all the human things that come with watching films… Yes including THAT question. A lovely one, including everything from beard faces to half century milestones to physical special effects to the Statham genre - have fun!RICH LINKSINSANE IN THE MEN BRAINTWITTERINSTAGRAMHOMEOTHER RICH LINKSBRETT 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.

Mike Birbiglia • Films To Be Buried With with Brett Goldstein #183
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 film maker, improv genius and comic MIKE BIRBIGLIA!This has been a long time coming, ever since the film ‘Don’t Think Twice’ was invoked all those episode ago with friend of the podcast Jameela Jamil - here’s your chance to meet the maker, who is also behind the incredible ‘Sleepwalk With Me’ as well as several huge one-man specials. A lovely episode, as he and Brett lock minds instantly and get into it all, including a good amount on said films, origin stories, early comic pals, some unfinished business from the Gillian Jacobs episode of this podcast (she starred in Don’t Think Twice), the complexities of improv which add to the uniqueness of the whole thing, being over the hill or on the hill, inducing tears with film and attractive acting people when they dress down. Glorious.
