Gold & Q-Force

This week’s show is brought to you from the mind of everyone's favourite sea defecator, Howie. There's been a notable rise in diversity on screen over the last few years as evidenced by the increasing number of LGBTQ+ characters so we thought we would celebrate them with this week’s Top 5. We did our very best not to offend anyone! The McConaissance attempted to continue with 2016's drama GOLD, starring the Texan alongside Edgar Ramirez in director Stephen Gaghan's inspired by true events story of the Bre-x mining scandal. It's the late 1980's and prospector and mining company owner Kenny Wells (Matthew McConaughey) is so desperate to impress his late father he literally follows his dreams to Indonesia, alongside geologist and heartthrob Michael Acosta in order to hunt for gold. There are some great actors in this; Bryce Dallas Howard, Toby Kebbel, Corey Stoll, all wasted on a disappointing script which mined little in the way of emotional drama from its characters. An insufferably sweaty performance from McConaughey, there's little to like about his Kenny and not a lot interesting to say about him. Avoid, although do listen to us talk about it. We finish up this week’s show with a look at Netflix's new animated series Q-FORCE. When the dashing valedictorian of the American Intelligence Agency (AIA), Steve Maryweather, comes out as gay during his graduation ceremony it appears his career has been ended instantaneously. Ten years on and managing a team of LGBT+ misfit spies without any cases assigned to them, Steve decides to take matters into his own hands and initiate his own wetwork when a Chechen terrorist conducts business from a local gay bar. Quips aplenty in this fun, and very gay, show! We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it.
