Ep 15: This Traitors Review PART 2

It's 100% time for part 2 of our Traitors review, and yes, we've decided to do 100% of the series, so subscribe to listen to the rest when they come out!

We cover episodes 3 and 4 of series 2 in this review. So, get your ears 100% ready for these questions:

Who is the winner of the '100% faithful' award?

Does it take a psychic to work out why 'you're the way you are'? 

And why are sheep and traitors NOT THE SAME THING!?

 

Presented by Davey Boy Stone and Ian Stone.

Produced by David Stone. 

Ep 14: This Traitors Review PART 1

I'm 100% a faithful and this is 100% a review.

That's right, this time around we're reviewing series 2 of BBC smash hit - The Traitors. So, this is your 100% SPOILER WARNING! 

In this show we cover episodes 1 and 2 of what is promising to rile up Ian and Davey Boy to Star Wars prequel levels.

Within our 100% faithful review you will 100% hear the answers to these questions:

Which player is a total psychopath? (It's pretty obvious.)

What happens when you're slightly rude to Diane? 

And... why is everybody so bad at this?

Presented by David 'Davey Boy' Stone and Ian Stone.

Ep 13: This Bone Alone Review

It's a new year and we've got another new episode. This time it's alleged 'comedy mockbuster'; Bone Alone. Think Home Alone, but with dogs, and there's your premise!

Be careful though, something very different comes up when you google the title!

What better way to get over Christmas than listening to just how bad a 'Christmas' movie can be.   

As always we'll answer the burning questions such as:

Can human characters really be superfluous to the plot?

Can you escape from a relentless frying pan beating unscathed?

And who is the gold standard for wooden acting? 

Watch the trailer for Bone alone here. (It's worth it!)

Ep 12: This Jingle All the Way Review

Put the cookie down and listen up! OK, so we keep promising new episodes only to not show up until a year later, but this time it's happening. We've got some recordings in the bag already and may do the odd re-release or two. A new release schedule is in place for 2024 so stay tuned for the announcement in due course. 

To get you in the mood for the year ahead, we have a brand new Christmas special right here, right now. We take a look Christmas classic; Jingle All the Way, starring half man, half machine, half all-American father figure (apparently); Arnold Schwarzenegger. 

We'll dig for the answers of these questions:

- How many serious crimes can Arnie commit in just one Christmas movie?

- How many toy shops can one man visit in one day?

- and what is it that's so orgasmic about those cookies?

Ep 11: This Police Interceptors Review

Well well well. Do you know why we stopped you? It's because we have reason to believe that you are driving this car without insurance. Also, there is a strong smell of cannabis coming off you. Step out of the car please. I said step out of the car. Requesting backup please...

Sorry guys, we are a bit busy here dealing with some criminal scum. While we sort this out, why don't you listen to this fresh review of Police Interceptors and ask yourself the following questions:

What constitutes a siege and why is it less than you think? What is the guilty pleasure of Sgt So and So and why is it important? And what is there for the MEN? 

Now get in the van.

Ep 10: This Naked Attraction Review

We're back! Pandemic fatigued and ageing rapidly, the brothers Stone have crawled out from their isolation caves to bring you a brand new set of reviews. Construction on the TIAS studio is finally complete so get ready to see these on the reg.

This week it's the one you have been waiting a year for...our Naked Attraction review!

Questions:

Will Anna Richardson be able to coin a sexy catchphrase? 
How hard IS IT to understand someone with the same accent as you?
And what sex toy should you wear on a first date?

All these questions may or may not be answered on the podcast of the year as voted by the "This" awards 2021. 

 

 

 

 

Ep 9: This Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge Of The Sith Review PART 2

Thank goodness that with this episode, the prequal trilogy is over! And it's interesting because this film actually divided our opinions slightly. One of us can just about tolerate it, one of us absolutely detests it! Either way, our review is a much more enjoyable romp than the actual film itself.

Questions: Which character is a surprisingly enduring mainstay? Who gets turned on at the mere thought of hate? And WHAT OF THE YOUNGLINGS?

Ep 8: This Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge Of The Sith Review PART1

It's taken a long time in a galaxy far away, but we have finally got round to uploading our review of the final instalment of the prequal trilogy! Revel in the delights that this film has to offer such as droid humour, extremely clichéd villainy and of course; an acting masterclass from Hayden Christensen! 

This week's questions: Which is the best creature to take on a joyride? Who poses awkwardly when going into battle? And who is OVERWHELMED?!

Ep 7: This Gogglebox Review

In a perfect world... it wouldn't have taken this long to release a new episode, but we are finally back so please react accordingly.

We have truly entered the twilight zone as This...Is A Review of a review show...of sorts. We watch an episode of Gogglebox and react to people on television reacting to television. Radical I know!

Questions this week: What exactly is an anal cake display? Who has the hair of a Lego Mini Figure? And which major pop star allegedly has an excellent rapport with Pachyderms?

Ep 6: This Star Wars Episode 2: Attack Of The Clones Review PART 2

That's right, it's part 2 of our Attack Of The Clones Review. And in this part we are introduced to Count Dooku played by the late, great Christopher Lee. MEANWHILE...we continue to be annoyed by the sickening and creepy romance between Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman.

This week's questions: What is the worst way to utilise a legend of stage and screen? Which Actor holds themselves with utter class? And how many people do you have to murder to seduce a former Queen? Find out this and more in another humdinger of a show!
