New Model, Old Parts: “Walkie Talkie” – Michał Walkiewicz’s Original Film Podcast
“Walkie Talkie” is Michał Walkiewicz’s original film podcast, which was previously hosted on Newonce.radio and is now available on Filmweb in an even better and refreshed format. The podcast features conversations with cinema professionals, film analyses, festival reports, and hot summaries. Last but not least, it includes a game called “You Won’t Believe What Happened!” If you’re a fan of cinema, series, video games, or simply pop culture in general, you’ve come to the right place.
In the latest episode of “WALKIE TALKIE,” Michał and Alek Pietrzak, the director of films such as “Juliusz” and “Black Sheep,” as well as the creator of the Big Festival—an event focused on cinema, memes, and “light content”—discuss the phenomenon of R-rated comedies. Do they still exist? How has the new trend affected them? Has the Marvel Cinematic Universe replaced them? What’s the connection between stand-up, memes, roller skates, and all of this?
You can also listen to the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts.
