The Team Newplex Podcast

Episode 100 - can you believe it?! 100 whole episodes of... this. To celebrate 100 episodes, we're back with a special watchalong of a film we love to meme on, Batman & Robin staring George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell

Can you believe we're only one away from our centenary episode? But before that, here on episode 99, we're getting into The Batman! Lots to talk about, including a lot of very random non-Batman stuff (like plastic surgery, and should we all get it?). I remember there being chuckles but I can't actually recall what we talked about so we'll all just have to find out together. Enjoy!

How much Marky Mark Wallberg is too much Marky Mark Wallberg? That is a question we will endeavour to answer in this week's episode of The Newplex Podcast. Can Charles convince Jads to watch the adventure flick despite its Marky content? Can Tom Holland and Playstation nostalgia offset the Funky Bunch vibes? Tune in to find out!

This week: The Flash movie, Batgirl, Boba Fett, and more! Plus, Charles and JOPO share their tattoo plans.

This week on the Newplex pod, we're looking at the behind the scenes fun from the upcoming DC Batgirl movie and wondering 'What If?' Leonardo DiCaprio had become Robin instead of (beloved) Chris O'Donnell. Plus, now we've all seen Eternals - what did we think? (Jads is gonna have to eat humble pie). Plus, pizza and so much more!

Welcome back! It's the first pod of 2022, and the gang are catching up on their festive activities. We're also talking all the stuff we've watched/read/listened to over the break, including Dune, Strange Adventures, Cobra Kai, Harry Potter, and more! As with any New Year, it's a chance for reflection, and we chat about what work/life balance should look like in 2022. Send in your thoughts @thenewplex to be read out next episode.

This week is a special episode dedicated entirely to reactions from Spider-Man: No Way Home. The gang have all seen it, but what did they think? Were there cheers, jeers, and tears? Or maybe just fears, ...rears, and beers? The rhyme ran out but this discussion shall not! Consider this part one of a conversation that is likely to carry on until the inevitable announcement of the next Spidey trilogy.

Our listener mail segment returns this week, get your own opinions and messages read out on the next episode by messaging @thenewplex on Twitter/Insta or send an email. Also, we're reacting to the brand new Across the Spider-Verse (Part One) teaser trailer, with Miles and Spider-Gwen back in action. Plus our thoughts from Hawkeye episodes 1-3, The Last Duel, and a lil mention of Halo: Infinite.

It's all about the Spider-Man this week as we discuss the latest trailer in meticulous detail (without really talking about the film much at all). Also this week, the shortest Dune review you've ever heard and the unexpected return of JOPO from his latest cult adventure. Plus, this week's Nerdlines. NOTE: Our brand new wrestling podcast 'BURIED' starts this Wednesday! Search 'Buried Newplex' and subscribe now to make sure you don't miss out.

We had a lot to cover in this episode. Did we manage to put a dent in any of it? That's for you to decide! Jads and Charles will just sit here and sip expired peppermint tea and chat nonsense in the meantime. On this week's show: fan reaction to Marvel's Eternals, listener mail, and wtf is going with Chris Pratt? Also, this week's Nerdlines.

On this week's pod: what makes a 'gritty' movie? What's next for Spider-Man after NWH? Why did Jads commit academic fraud? And what is a sigma male and how do we become one? All these questions and more answered in the 90th episode of the Newplex Podcast!

Spoilers for No Time To Die inside, you have been warned!

On this week's pod there is... no movie talk. Not sure why, we had Shang Chi to talk about, but we ended up sharing Jads' skin care knowledge that he has gained after a summer of research and some weirdly in-depth conversation about how school really messes you up lol. Make sure to follow us on Insta for the pics we mention in this ep and send in your own thoughts on anything we discussed @thenewplex

The whole team have finally seen The Suicide Squad which means it's time for a spoiler review! Also this week's Jads' non-spoiler review of Shang-Chi and excitement for the dawn of the Wong trilogy. We're also taking a look at the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer and looking forward to things to come in the MCU. Plus, this week's Nerdlines.

JOPO has been freed from the cult as has been safely returned to us with most of his digits still attached! This week Jads gives us his non-spoiler review of The Suicide Squad and he tries his very best to be nice. Also, how can any of be expected to care about ScarJo's Disney lawsuit? Plus, this week's Nerdlines.

What happened in this episode? Really, who's to say? Something about peanut butter Snickers and how that reminds Jads of Akira? Buckle up, folks.

Can we get sidetracked with discussions about accents not once but twice in the same episode? Well you'll just have to listen to find out! Also this week, Marvel's first movie since Endgame, Black Widow, reviewed - plus thoughts before the final episode of Loki.

The battle of Urban Outfitters vs ASOS wages on in this week's episode of the Newplex Podcast. Also, dangerous cat food, The Flash movie shoots in London (and reveals Supergirl), and is Phil Dunphy in the MCU? Plus, if you're confused by the DC movie timeline, you're not the only one - Jads is here to fail to answer your questions.

It's such a lovely day, we thought we'd do the pod al fresco - so get ready for some vitamin D and soothing nature sounds (seagulls fighting/copulating). Listen as the glaring heat and direct sunlight (silly us) makes it nearly impossible for Jads to formulate any sort of coherent arguments as we discuss all things Loki, the brand new Disney+ series. The multiverse is here!! Also, this week's Nerdlines.

We're "reviewing" Zack Snyder's newest Netflix film Army of the Dead this week, but not before we ponder divine intervention, Urban Outfitters, and Charlie's tramlines. Also, why haven't Disney invented a real lightsaber yet? Plus this week's Nerdlines.
