Easy Riders Raging Podcast

By: Chris Johnston
  • Summary

  • Now in our fourth series, we're back and this time around we're talking 1980s films of all shapes and sizes. But not just that, we've got eps on 80s TV, and music videos and more! As ever our episodes include trademark features such as Recastarama (where we recast the film using current actors) and Who Am I (where we work out who we would be in the film). Lots of fun to be had. [Our 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and 1970s series are also available]

  • 64- Someone to Watch Over Me & Roxy Music: Avalon (1980s, Ridley Scott #6, 80's Music videos #2)
    Sep 21 2024

    Happy weekend everyone! Today on the show- as part of #ScottSeptember- I talk about the Ridley Scott film 'Someone to Watch Over Me' and the Ridley Scott directed music video for 'Avalon' by Roxy Music. Two lesser talked about things in the career of the director that I thought it was intresting to find time to talk about during this mini-series.

    Anyway, next episode- it's 'Blade Runner'.

  • 63- Apple Macintosh: 1984 (1980s, Ridley Scott #4, Classic advertisement #5)
    Sep 15 2024

    Continuing #ScottSeptember this episode sees Paul and I discuss Ridley Scott's iconic '1984' Apple Macintosh commercial (if you've never seen this, I strongly recommend you check this out on YouTube, it's a beut).

    Oh, and we recorded this in the summer of 2023 and so when I criticise the government/ the home office, I am slagging off the Conservative Party/ Robert Jenrick. Good riddance, etc.

  • 62- Black Rain (1980s, Ridley Scott #7)
    Sep 7 2024

    Okey-dokey, #ScottSeptember continues with this episode- which eagle-earer listeners may note was recorded last summer- where Paul and I discuss Ridley Scott's 'Black Rain'. And there's talk of many of Scott's films in this ep as we spend a significant amount of time discussing the themes running throughout the director's filmography (during which Paul says something about 'Blade Runner 2049' which I 1000% disagree with- though I don't think I address that with him until our forthcoming 'Blade Runner' episode...).
