Films and Fermentation-- Strong reviews. Stronger drinks.
"Films and Fermentation" is a unique and lively podcast where we explore the intersection of movie culture and adult beverages. Each episode, we pick a fun, nostalgic, or quirky movie topic and pair it with the perfect drink to match the vibe. From cult classics and hidden gems to blockbuster hits, we review films with humor, heart, and a little buzz. We delve into films across all genres and decades, creating spirited discussions, while raising a glass to the art of cinema and the world of craft brews, cocktails, and more. With over 160 episodes and nearly 3 years of consistent content creation, Films and Fermentation has developed a strong, dedicated fan base. Our lighthearted tone, dynamic banter, and focus on niche movie topics paired with drinks set us apart in the movie podcast space.

Episodes
"Pop open a cold one, folks, because this week on Films and Fermentation we’re diving into the cinematic mixtape of the man who gave the ’80s its ultimate soundtrack—John Hughes. He’s the reason we all wished for a day off like Ferris, a breakfast detention with cool misfits, and a Christmas vacation with Cousin Eddie). Hughes didn’t just write movies; he wrote the awkward, hilarious, and heartfelt moments of our...
"Tonight, we're taking a break from actual film reviews to play the game no screenwriter wants you to see: Movie Madlibs—where plot structure goes to die. We’ll be filling in the blanks on ridiculous movie summaries, each one written in the style of a famous director—because nothing says “artistic tribute” like turning Tarantino into a Mad Libs booklet. Expect chaos, confusion, and at l...
"Welcome to Films and Fermentation, where our childhoods were shaped by the magical, the whimsical, and the deeply scarring. Today, we’re diving into the twisted fever dreams that passed for “kids’ movies” in the 1980s—because nothing says family fun like puppets with dead eyes and animated rabbits dying in slow motion. These films taught us important life lessons, like how to fear swamps, trust no goblins, and t...
"In this episode, we’re diving into the slick-talking, double-crossing world of cinematic con artists. These are the movies where charm is currency, nobody’s who they say they are, and someone’s always walking away with a suitcase full of someone else’s money. We'll toast the grifters, the hustlers, and the lovable liars who made swindling look like an art form. So pour yourself a drink—but keep an eye on it...
"In this episode, if the drinks were any stronger we’d need a bigger podcast. We're celebrating the 50th anniversary of Jaws—the movie that made us afraid of the ocean, bathtubs, and even overly aggressive theme music. Spielberg turned a mechanical shark and a lot of screaming into a cultural tidal wave, and we’ve been swimming in its wake ever since. So crack open a cold one, chum, and join us as we sink ou...
"In this episode, Summer may be winding down, but Hollywood is still throwing blockbusters at us like it’s trying to win a dodgeball tournament. In this episode, we preview the upcoming cinematic chaos from July to October — everything from superheroes in capes to horror sequels that should probably call it quits. Grab your popcorn and pour yourself something fermented, because we’re diving headfirst into a seaso...
"Welcome to Films and Fermentation, the podcast where the drinks are strong and the patriotism is louder than a bald eagle riding a Harley through a Michael Bay explosion. In this episode, we're saluting the most American of movie tropes: when Uncle Sam swoops in to save the world—sometimes with diplomacy, but usually with a lot of guns and slow-motion. From presidents in fighter jets to corn-fed heroes punc...
"Welcome to Films and Fermentation’s 200th Episode Spectacular—that’s right, 200 episodes of drinks, debates, and questionable cinematic opinions! Tonight, we’re carving our Mt. Rushmore of movies from the Mt. Rushmore of directors, because clearly we enjoy making things complicated. We’ve got a live audience chat going, so grab a celebratory drink, chisel your opinions in stone, and get ready for the most monume...
"In this episode, we finally checked the inbox and discovered people actually listen to us. It’s our very first listener mailbag episode, where you ask the questions and we pretend to know the answers. From movie debates to drink suggestions, we’re diving headfirst into your messages like Tom Hanks into Meg Ryan’s DMs. So buckle up, pop a cork, and let’s open this cinematic Pandora’s box together!"

"In this episode, we dig through the cinematic attic and blow the dust off forgotten flicks—whether they deserve it or not. In Part 11 of our Films That Time Forgot series, we’re unearthing more lost reels, unloved classics, and VHS fossils that time, taste, and good judgment left behind. These are the movies that make you go, “Wait… that was a thing?” It’s cinematic archaeology with a buzz, folks. So grab your b...
"In this episode, we're riding into the sunset with a modern-day recasting of Young Guns, because apparently, Hollywood hasn't rebooted enough things yet. We're trading in mullets and six-shooters for man buns and skinny jeans. Who makes the new Billy the Kid—Timothée Chalamet or someone even broodier and less dusty? So grab your whiskey, polish your boots, and get ready for a rootin’-tootin’ recas...
"In this episode, the drinks are strong and the opinions are binge-worthy. Today, we're turning off the silver screen and flipping on the small one to talk about our all-time favorite TV shows—because sometimes, a 10-season emotional rollercoaster is exactly what you need after a long day. From classic sitcoms to prestige dramas, we'll laugh, cry, and probably argue about which show had the best theme ...
This Memorial Day, we're diving deep—literally and cinematically—as we salute the silent service with an episode dedicated to the best submarine films ever made. These movies take us to the crushing depths of the ocean, where tension bubbles, torpedoes fly, and someone’s always whisper-yelling “Dive! Dive! Dive!” in a Russian accent. From claustrophobic corridors to heroic sacrifices, these stories capture the br...
“In this episode, the only thing more artificial than some movie plots is the intelligence we’re talking about today. In this episode—Cinema, Sips, & Sentience—we’re diving into the wild world of A.I. in film, from charming robo-buddies to machines that definitely skipped their empathy update. We’ll explore what happens when circuits meet cinema and why giving robots feelings always seems to end in disaster. So ch...
“In this episode, the Schwartz is strong and the drinks are stronger. Today we’re warping to ludicrous speed as we dive into Spaceballs—Mel Brooks’ epic quest to boldly spoof where no spoof has spoofed before. It's got everything: helmet hair, merchandising gags, and a half-man, half-dog who’s his own best friend. We’re cracking open cold ones and hot takes on the galaxy’s funniest sci-fi farce. So buckle up, gra...
“In this episode, the only thing quicker than our wit is the pour of our whiskey. Today’s episode is called Best Westerns—and no, we’re not reviewing hotel continental breakfasts or the thread count on motel sheets. We’re saddling up to talk about our favorite cowboy flicks, where the hats are big, the standoffs are tense, and someone’s always spitting into a spittoon for dramatic effect. From shootouts at high noon t...
“In this episode, the movies are great, the drinks are strong, and the nostalgia is turned up to 11. Tonight, we're taking a totally tubular trip back to 1985—a year when movie soundtracks were so good, they had their own fan clubs. From power ballads to synth anthems, these tunes didn’t just accompany the films—they defined them. So whether you're dancing in the streets with Bowie and Jagger or hitching a r...
“In this episode, we’re sliding headfirst into the 1992 baseball classic A League of Their Own—the movie that proved women can hit, pitch, and steal scenes better than most major leaguers. It gave us iconic quotes, tear-jerking moments, and Tom Hanks at peak grumpy. So grab your peanuts, cracker jack, and maybe a nice cold brew, because we’re revisiting the Rockford Peaches and their cinematic ho...
Mike of Films and Fermentation brings you his review of the Christmas Action film, Red One, starring The Rock, Chris Evans, Lucy Liu, and JK Simmons.

SPECIAL GUEST-- CTHULHU JACK!!! @CthulhuJackPresents
“In this episode, we celebrate the movies that time forgot—but true fans never did. Today, we’re diving into the wild, weird, and wonderfully offbeat world of 80s cult classics. These are the films that bombed at the box office but thrived in the VHS trenches, living on through midnight screenings and devoted fandoms. From kung-fu rock operas to time-tra...
