Welcome to Waxing the Porpoise, the podcast that dives deep into the unexplored depths of cinema and occasionally the unexplained.
This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve are proud to welcome back special guest and friend of the show,Ricky Ticky Randew from the Straight Chilling podcast, a man of profound insights and fellow found footage aficionado, to discuss the dread soaked manifestation of generational guilt and supernatural foreboding, Lake Mungo from 2008.
Join us as we discuss sleepwalking and night terrors, the deeply unsettling creep factor the film espouses via themes of depression, dread, and the inevitability of death and meander through some of our other greatest hits in the found footage subgenre such as the likes of Blair Witch, Noroi: The Curse and Creep - 1 and 2.
The porpoises, midnight companions and keen observers, soak in the cold and unforgiving waters of existential dread whilst traversing an outback setting with more twists and turns than you can shake a stick at.
No rules, just right.
Let's wax this down under porpoise.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
