Pick Your Flick
Pick your Flick is a podcast about movies and friendship. Each episode, friends Bec and Liam discuss a film and share some personal stories. No genre is off limits, and films include a mixture of old and new. It’s basically a book club with two people, but for films.

Episodes
In this episode of Pick Your Flick, hosts Bec and Liam go head-to-head in a Bec Story battle. Will Liam be able to identify the films Bec describes in her unconventional, sometimes incorrect manner?
The hosts then dive into the unique genre of parody with a review of the 1984 comedy Top Secret. Along with guest speaker Ian, they dissect the quirky humour, clever scenes, and underwhelming storytelling that define this film, and ref...
This episode, Liam crafts a trivia game to expose Bec's poor knowledge and memory of film directors. But it's fine, it's not like we're hosting a movie podcast or anything...
Following last week's excellent film, this week the hosts discuss the not-so-excellent film The Dive (2023). Sometimes it's fun to hate! And to imagine alternate endings that could have made a bad film slightly more interesting.

This episode, Liam has a pivotal realisation about the format of this podcast, and the friends discuss a weekend shared in Brisbane.
This week's film, All Of Us Strangers (2023), has a big impact on both Liam and Bec. The beautifully crafted story is a powerful and unique exploration of relationships and healing, with an excellent and heartbreaking soundtrack to boot!

This week, Liam shares the story of when Bec accidentally swindled the local video store. The hosts then discuss Minari (2020), the delicate story of a Korean-American family's pursuit of the American dream.
Stay tuned at the end for a bonus conversation about how the hosts would fare in a hypothetical zombie apocalypse and whether a cinema would make a good place to hide.

The hosts play another friendship word association game to reveal Bec's a scatterbrain, Liam's a silent stumbler and they're both PC Tetris nerds.
This week we unpack the Academy Award winning film, Poor Things (2023). Outstanding performances by Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo and Willem Defoe alongside beautifully scripted storytelling and cinematography make this one to remember.

As always, Liam and Bec have a quick chat about what they've been watching lately. Liam introduces a friendship word association game to remember some friendship fun times including falling on his head at yoga, too much vodka, clams, diarrhea and Mr Marshmallow Man.
This week we unpack Cocaine Bear, the 2023 comedy/horror (is it really a horror though??) in all of its glorious madness. We just can't get enough of this wild ride.
...Your hosts discuss Liam's pick, the 1992 dark comedy Death Becomes Her. From excellent comedic performances to pettiness and plotting, it's an endlessly fun and quotable film.
Please bear with us through some slightly patchy audio in this episode - better recording equipment is on its way!

Bec and Liam unpack the 2006 Martin Scorsese drama, The Departed. With an all-star cast, excellent soundtrack and complex characters, there is a lot to like about this film.
In contrast, the film Liam and Bec tried to make in year 9 wasn't as good... the hosts discuss how they had the vision, but maybe not the skills.

Friends Bec and Liam introduce themselves and their movie-going friendship, including a couple of awkward stories.
They then take a deep dive into the classic 80's teen adventure film The Goonies (1985). Topics include character analysis, parental responsibility (where were the parents in the 80's?) and the wild relationship between Sloth and Chunk.
