This week the Pauls were waylaid by fan of the show Jennifer Sohns showing up in the middle of a plumbing job and waving a shiny rock in our faces. “Take this to another dimension,” she cooed, then when I reached out for it she beat us over the head with a hammer and dragged our bodies hundreds of miles into a moody dystopia populated by folk-singing mushrooms, men evolved from dragons and goo hanging from literally fucking everything. “It’s just like Mario!” cried Jennifer, taunting us by hooti...

Well, we only went and asked the very good Movie Maintenance podcast for a recommendation. Originally that recommendation was to stop calling them and standing outside their window with boomboxes (Wagner, obviously) – but eventually they relented and poured the boiling vat of A Sound of Thunder all over our faces. And you know what? We lapped it up. Turns out people who are very good at fixing films on the side can also pick a very bad film when prompted. That's talent for you. Featuring: Ron?! ...

Howdy y'all/y'all'all, what up and shut up: the Paulboyz are once again overrun by Australians (though they still refuse to show us their birth certificates) – what better way to celebrate this latest subjugation by looking at an infamous part of history that has nothing to do with Australia nor any real grounding in reality? That's right, this week the Pauls and Sean and Phil and Chris looked at Chopper! Also Wild Wild West, because it is a bad film. y'all. Featuring: spiders! genders! minoriti...

And so into the grey those sweet Paulboyz ride – MATTHEW GREY (GRAY) that is. He (@clockworkwriter) suggested we do some of the movie movies, we put it to a poll, nobody could make up their bloody minds and now the Paulboyz are stuck with three hours of something approximating satire. It was witnessed, recorded and swiftly dumped into a well. Was it a wishing well? H.G. Wells? Welwyn Garden City? Nobody knows, so dense are the references. Better just ask Crispin Glover like we always do. Featuri...

We’ve hit another tenner and you know what that means: one of the disgusting Paulboyz pulls a film favourite from the pile of stink that amasses around the truly deranged and defends it for the whole world to see! This week, one of the Pauls somehow thinks Lars Von Trier's 2009 film Antichrist isn’t a loathsome piece of garbage and that maybe we need to have a chat about it. So there you go. Other Paul doesn’t have much of a choice. Tens is tens after all. Featuring: Northern Dad, Willem Dafoe’s...

This week the Paulz confuse their timelines and whisk themselves back to a crazy era where only men played videogames, music was repetitive and only men played videogames, did I mention that? That’s right, they went to a 2015 Adam Sandler film. Arf. Pixels. That’s about all this fucking thing is getting. One good thing. Featuring: memory lane, …FUN???!!!!, a winning formula, good lessons for your kids and everything pretty much in its right and holy place where gender roles and masculinity is co...

Happy Valentine’s one and all! Obviously the Pauls have booked out every restaurant in the city on the off-chance that in gallivanting they pass by even one of them. If not, though, they’ll probably do what they always do: drink organic vinegar from the bottle and watch one Garry Marshall film at random until that thing happens where the liquid starts pouring out of a steaming hole in the back of their heads. When not wriggling their sopping fists through each other’s new neck-holes, however, th...

This week the Pauls struggle to be heard over the sound of an obnoxious four-four beat backing over them like a lorry packed to the rafters with bullshit; fortunately for them, Ballistic: Ecks Vs Sever was on the TV, so they were able to hear it over everything else perfectly. And what do you know, they even found a few good things about it… ONE good thing, that is. But also a few. Featuring: the inevitable return to a Channel 4 cult comedy classic, not being John Travolta (or Clive Owen), a smo...

This week the Paulboyz ask 'Why doesn't everyone love the films we love?' and get stuck into those 'Great' movies that people love to hate. Featuring: Christopher Nolan, David Lynch, Stanley Kubrick, Denis Villeneuve, Damien Chazelle, John Madden, Rian Johnson and anyone who's ever liked or disliked a film and just fancied a good old chat.

We tried so hard for the original Mark and Sophie from You Know What I Like Podcast – we wanted them so bad and we thought our moxie and street cred was enough. Alas. Luckily for us, some old man from Braveheart (I think Brendan Gleeson?) shipped us over a couple of podcast people from his own private stash. They were sexier and cooler and happy to work for nothing, just like us, so we hit it off in an instant. Unfortunatley the real Mark and Sophie showed up and weren’t happy with us showing th...

This week the Paulboyz get their laughing gear around the end of a series they’ve had very little to do with to date, but promise you this: if but one iota makes no sense they’ll hound it to the ends of the Earth. That’s right: this week is the one good thing about immortal abomination The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn: Part 2::::! May our lives be forever about to change. Featuring: we found Jim Broadbent, the bad promise, the strangest heart and honestly, very honestly, not Paul Giamatti, pleas...

Does not compute! Aha... ah. Launching the Pilot podcast not only has a frankly fantastic Australian mullet, but they came to us with a violent, sexy idea for our ears only: find the one good thing about CHAPPiE, they said. And let us pilot an incredible death machine. Hmm, we said. Seems a bit much. No it isn't, they said. Just look at Sigourney Weaver over there. She seemed pretty cool with it. We didn't have a leg to stand on. Except for a gross insane killer robot leg. So while the LtP boys ...

Well, it's the end of a long and sticky year. We've seen our fair share of highs and some undeserved lows, but those of us who remain have not only ourselves but each other to thank. These emotions and more come to a head on the last day of 2017: there'll be laughter, mostly because of alcohol; regret, mostly also because of alcohol but also because of genitals and the sex we've done to one another, but also regret from all the poor decisions we made in the last year, because of alcohol, sex and...

Merry Christmas from the Paulboyz at OGT: this week we find the one festive thing about Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas and in turn find that Christmas is indeed saved for us. No doubt about it, guys. This does exactly what it says on the tin. Featuring everything you've ever wanted in Santa's steely gaze. See you in the new year!

Now they've recorded 50+2 episodes, the Paulboyz turn their critical rays on themselves, along with the brain-baby that is their podcast 'The One Good Thing About Podcast'. Ever listened to them crap on about Christopher Nolan for the tenth consecutive episode and wondered 'But why did you bother recording this?''How can you even stand each other?' or 'What did you have for lunch today?" ? Well, today's your lucky day because these questions and more are answered within. Thanks for permitting us...

The Paulz are in tumult: HMRC are chasing them up and down the country for blockading the entrance to their headquarters and the strapping young podcastmen just don’t ruddy care! They’ve made a fort out of sleeping bags and Domino’s boxes and have resolved to watch all 127 minutes of George Lucas’s Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace right there in the doorway, their naked feet and arses exposed to the unforgiving winter air of the British Isles (and Tesco’s jam) because apparently Ian Dunca...

We finally did it. The oft-threatened. The rightly feared. We invited our twin sister over for bank holiday Monday! Ugh, nightmare. Long story short, she took off her pantyhose, stuffed a weasel up there and puked up a big racist drawing of England's growing Polish population, but because she looks an awful lot like us it's funny and romantic, not grossly offensive. The secret is she's just lazy, but no one seems to have cottoned on just yet. Same time again next year! In the meantime, let's wat...

Give the Paulboyz a second: they’re processing an awful lot right now and can’t stand to be [incoherent mumbling] passive observers anymore! Some strange shit’s going down, man, people are losing their minds over this and it’s going to get worse before it gets better. Never mind that: the Pauls have found a patch of land in idyllic Killadelphia not dominated by murderous trees and are going to watch The Happening. You voted for it. We have to find it. The one good thing, that is. A lot of people...

Hey flyboys: we heard there’s a war on! Last thing me and the boys heard there’s a hulking mass in the sky, come from afar, promising doom and destruction from above – and all we can do is wait. That’s right, I was really talking about Pearl Harbour (2001) but flipped it at the very end there! Did you see? Anyway, me and the boys are gonna go smooch some dames and get something hypodermic jabbed into our butt-meat, hopefully with some sort of military-grade narcotic because even though we’re not...

Matthew Gray (@clockworkwriter) has a quest: some people think it’s a noble quest, most people would rather eat their own sick than hear another word of it, but he doesn’t care. He’s come this far, lost so many friends, but by God he’s going to get someone to watch Sex Lives of the Potato Men and commit it to posterity by talking about it in front of microphones. If it has to be the One Good Thing boys then so be it. Who knows, there might even be one of those Good Things if they look hard enoug...

Oh jolly wolly bolly boo boo, gather ’round all ye of noble birth and utter unentitlement: It’s Tuesday and you know what that means: time to congratulate ourselves for not being foreign, poor or sentimental in any way shape or form, but British, by God!

Good moaning maladies and dementedmen, we hope you like s-s-s-scaaary films, because we decided to look at two of them today. That's right: we're doing a one spooky thing about Halloween: the franchise! Not the remakes though. Basically one Paul likes horror films and has decided to make every Halloween a truly terrifying experience by forcing the other Paul to watch everything even remotely related to it, then talk at length about them when he'd rather just watch the Royal Tenenbaums again. Woo...

Thanks to TV In Space (@TVinspace) the Pauls are pushed kicking screaming into the acid vats they have down at DC nowadays and emerge moments later with some unconvincing makeup and an inexplicable desire to sink their teeth into Batman. Unfortunately Bruce Wayne isn't taking visitors so they went online and rented a copy of Batman and Robin, tucked into a family bucket of Häagen-Dazs and bitched about billionaires all night. What came out? A couple of good things. Featuring: ice cold puns, toxi...

This week the Pauls disobey a direct order and go blam on the hyperdrive. Long story short is that they ended up lost in a very specific space where loopy sci-fi concepts were buttoned down with double denim and chased with an ice cold Pepsi just in time for Take That to come and shake their frosted tips to a Balearic dance beat. That's right: the Pauls are lost in the nineties and everyone just thinks they went out for milk. Oh well. Let's watch another stinker and find some one good things. In...
