Luis Felber, aka Attawalpa, joins us this week to talk all things music, as well as the many other roles he had in making the hit new Netflix comedy, 'Too Much,' starring Megan Stalter and Will Sharpe.

Not only did Luis co-create the show with his wife, Lena Dunham ('Girls,' 'Sharp Stick'), but he was also the Co-Writer, Producer and Composer.

In this episode, we find out how Luis came to wear so many hats, and what it was like to put his own music in an already very personal story, inspired by his and Lena's own relationship.

Featuring the tracks 'True Love Trajectory,' 'No Limitations' and 'Always The Girls' by Attawalpa.

As a former detective and a former resident of Edinburgh, respectively, we jumped at the chance to sit down with the Writer and Director of the new Netflix crime drama 'Dept. Q' for our first ever in-person interview.

In this episode, we chat with Scott Frank about filming in Scotland and mastering the local slang, his research into real life detectives (and how it's illegal to make a police show without a crime board), and which department he'd have worked on had he not been in charge of the whole thing.

And in another first, you can watch the full interview on YouTube!

In our first ever emergency episode, we unpick Donald Trump's 'tweet-bomb' from last week in which he announced a 100% tariff on all movies made in "foreign lands."

This left a lot of us asking what this announcement might mean for the film industry in the UK and the US, so in this episode we try to make sense of the madness with the help of some experts on both sides of the Atlantic.

We're joined by Production Designer and former chair of the British Film Designers Guild, Blair Barnette, and former President of the US Art Directors Guild, Thomas Walsh, who give us their take on the situation and answer some of your questions about it.

Talk about ‘Severance’ on your podcast enough and you might just get invited to a screening Q&A. That’s what happened to us anyway when we got to go to the season finale event at Everyman Cinemas in London and mingle with the cast and crew.

To kick off Season 5 we're finally fulfilling our dream of becoming a 'Severance' podcast, for one episode at least, by debriefing the latest season, revealing what goes on at these swanky showbiz events, and telling you all about our chats with Ben Stiller and Adam Scott.

Needless to say; SPOILERS AHEAD!
