Double Bed Double Bill

By Patrick Howard and Emma Khamis

Patrick and Emma are like heaps cultured, don’t you know? Unfortunately, despite loving The Cinema (or, as the French say, 'cinéma'), there are lots of cultural touchstones and classic films that have escaped them over the years. Join them as they correct these oversights one or two films at a time while sitting on a bed, eating za, and talking about the world instead of participating in it.

029. Surprise, We're Back!: A Quick Catch Up & 'Sleepless in Seattle'

Wellllllll hiiii! Yes, it’s us, your old friends; we’re back baby! After 476 days with no new episodes we thought it was about time we got back on the horse. We missed youuu! We’re not back to our old tricks entirely; we’ll just record episodes when we have the time/space/bandwidth, but we’ll be sure to let you know movies for our future episodes at least a week in advance so you can still play along!



To find our feet again, this brand new episode for 2023 features a 30min catch up on our lives and lots of the movies we’ve seen over the past 15 months, and then us doing what we do best after watching ‘Sleepless in Seattle’ (1993). Did we find the characters unhinged? Yes. Do we confuse our Bill Paxtons with our Bill Pullmans? Yes. Does Patrick have any general working knowledge of the Apollo missions? TBD.

028. The Cyborg That Couldn't Slow Down: 'Speed' & 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day'

028. The Cyborg That Couldn't Slow Down: 'Speed' & 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day'

PEW PEW PEW [insert quoteable phrase for acton figure here] KABOOM! It’s action week, kids! We’re walking beyond where the sun touches into new shadowland. Well, kinda, coz Patrick watched both of these movies quite a bit as a kid, but evidently didn’t properly take them in or appreciate them. We hit up two real classics this week with ‘Speed’ (1994) and ‘Terminator 2: Judgement Day’ (1991), and have an absolute ball! We feed some shrimp, there’s yet another episode of Patrick’s Queer Awakenings in Cinema, and Emma decides that parody is NOT comedy, and actually being on a bus with a bomb on it is NOT a laughing matter.

027. 1999 Week Vol. 2: 'Magnolia' & 'Jawbreaker'

027. 1999 Week Vol. 2: 'Magnolia' & 'Jawbreaker'

We’re slipping back in time to 1999 again this week for our second edition of 1999 Week, and our fourth edition of People’s Choice week. These two films were the third and fourth most popular choices in our polls, and make for a really wonderful pairing. ‘Magnolia’ (1999) confused and tested us with its labyrinthine 24hr plot with inter-tangled, fractured narratives, and ‘Jawbreaker’ delighted with its unique pairing of dark and camp. Both of these films SCREAM the 90s, and honestly, we couldn’t be happier. Pull up an inflatable couch, pop out a jawbreaker (or gobstopper, if your Strayan), shut the f*#k up, and don't call me lady!

026. Underdog Week: 'Rocky' & 'Legally Blonde'

026. Underdog Week: 'Rocky' & 'Legally Blonde'

This week we hit up our master list and committed to doing two big ones that we REALLY should have seen. Two films that were wildly different. And little did we know that we’d find resonances across them both… and here we have Underdog Week. ‘Rocky’ (1976) and ‘Legally Blonde’ (2001); two films about (contextually speaking) an underdog who we have no chance but to root for as they overcome ridiculous hurdles and display incredible tenacity and discover what really matters. And for good measure, a fantastic longform version of the story of Patrick moving house, and a discussion that lingers probably a bit too long on the topic of analingus. Bon appétit!

.

Want to skip ahead? ‘Rocky’ starts at 0:19:20 and ‘Legally Blonde’ starts at 1:25:00.

025. 1999 Week Vol. 1: 'Being John Malkovich' & 'Cruel Intentions'

025. 1999 Week Vol. 1: 'Being John Malkovich' & 'Cruel Intentions'

This is People’s Choice Week Vol. 3, but more notably the first episode in a new series we’ve started where we watch films from 1999 - one of, arguably, the greatest years of cinema. We kicked things off with a poll across all our socials of 8 films that neither of us had seen and the two that were clearly at the top of everyone’s wishlist were ‘Being John Malkovich’ (1999) and ‘Cruel Intentions’ (1999). This week we explore the metaphysical, the metaphorical and the metaphrased bastardised French pronunciation of Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos. Oh, and seamlessly (you’ll never notice) Patrick moves house in the middle of the episode with Emma’s assistance. You’ll be hearing about it forever, don’t worry. Happy lockdown Sydney friends, see you in 2 more weeks for another ep!

024. Spielberg Week: 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial' & 'Jaws'

024. Spielberg Week: 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial' & 'Jaws'

We’re still in lockdown and we’re tackling two films by the great man himself this week: Steven Spielberg. Patrick has shockingly never seen  ‘E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial’ (1982) before, and neither Patrick nor Emma have seen the chilling and legendary ‘Jaws’ (1975), but this week we watch ‘em both. Of course, we can’t help but talk about Catholicism (again), Patrick gets his first ‘jab’ mid-episode, and we talk about all sorts of random shit, but this is a good one folks, we lock in to our movie nerd-dom properly this week. Both of these films command reverence and respect, what a shame we’re the two people to be trusted with such a task… (no ramen was pissed into this week).

023. Emma's 90s Animation Failings: 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' & 'The Prince of Egypt'

023. Emma's 90s Animation Failings: 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' & 'The Prince of Egypt'

Well, Covid done got us again girl. We’ve been locked down, but a silly pandemic isn’t gonna get in the way of us talking shit, so we bought a second microphone, set up Emma in 3 different rooms in her house, ultimately settling on the backseat of a car as a recording studio, and struggled for 90min to get semi-podcast quality recorded conversation while in different houses. But it was WORTH IT because this week’s films were bangers, Disney’s ‘The Hunchback of Notre Dame’ (1996) and Dreamworks’ ‘The Prince of Egypt’ (1998) - two huge vaguely religiously themed animated family features that Emma somehow missed seeing. Also, they’re musicals! Could these be more up our alley?

022. A Psycho By Any Other Name: 'American Beauty' & 'American Psycho'

022. A Psycho By Any Other Name: 'American Beauty' & 'American Psycho'

“America! America! / God shed His grace on thee / And crown thy good with brotherhood / From sea to shining sea!” This week brings with it a double bill brought about by an immediate need to watch one of the selected films ahead of our visit to see ‘American Psycho: The Musical’ at the Opera House. ‘American Beauty’ (1999) has already been contextualised in Patrick’s filmic history on this podcast before, with Emma very excited to watch it for the first time, and we were both of us were thrilled for our first foray into the darkly comic ‘American Psycho’ (2000). This week, y’all, we get INTO it. The elephant in the room (rhymes with Devon Facey) is spoken about at length, and we dig a bit deeper with our analytical brains this week… we is smart. But for balance we also we talk about peeing on the floor. And peeing into ramen. Look, mates, it’s a journey, just go with it…

.

To skip to ‘American Beauty’ go to 0:20:56. To skip to ‘American Psycho’ go to 1:46:43.

021. People's Choice Week Vol. 2: 'Black Panther' & 'The Notebook'

We’re back! Our eyes are crystal clear and our stress levels are… well… our eyes are crystal clear! This week we entered another round of People’s Choice, watching movies you voted for on our Insta stories, and the winners were ‘Black Panther’ (2018) and ‘The Notebook’ (2004). You’re a varied and cheeky bunch, these films are quite the contrast when juxtaposed, and we love it! As well as talking about the films, we get down to talking about milkshake ducks, Veruca Salt’s father, sex in the rain, and the time a THEATRE, of all places, decided Patrick’s voice was too gay.

DBDB Classiques: Revisiting 'Getting to Know You'

This week we’re taking a short break, and revisiting a classic! Our very first episode, ‘Getting to Know You’ was released almost 8 months ago and is still our highest-rated episode! While we recover from eye surgery and the crippling pressure of producing interstate tours during a pandemic, enjoy this trip down memory lane with lil baby virgin podcasters Patrick and Emma.

020. Patrick's Almost-Favourite Films: 'Big Fish' & 'Spirited Away'

020. Patrick's Almost-Favourite Films: 'Big Fish' & 'Spirited Away'

After cordially offering Emma the opportunity to discuss her two favourite movies on the podcast earlier this year, Patrick has been campaigning for the same opportunity. However, we find ourselves locked in a now-months-long fight over whether Patrick’s second favourite film ‘Synecdoche, New York’ can be discussed. The battle continues! But, in the meantime, we’re discussing two of Patrick’s almost-favourite movies, ‘Big Fish’ (2003) and 「千と千尋の神隠し」(‘Spirited Away’, 2001). Emma hasn’t seen either, or any anime ever for that matter. Things get pretty deep this week, and we talk about Emma’s eyes, storytelling, theatre etiquette, and there’s even a crash course in Japanese mythology.

019. People's Choice Week Vol. 1: 'Bridget Jones's Diary' & 'Fight Club'

You spoke, and we listened… it’s our first People’s Choice Week! We asked you which movies you wanted us to watch via polls on our Instagram stories, and these were the two you all voted for most. ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’ (2001) and ‘Fight Club’ (1999). Two very contrasting films, which we love, one from either side of the millennium. Both of these films got under our skin in different ways, and we ended up going to strange places in our dissemination of them… is human breast milk vegan? Everything is up for debate! This week we talk role models, feminism, sadomasochistic eroticism, the nutritional qualities of blue soup, and come to the conclusion that some things are better left in the last century (like glorifying workplace sexual harassment for starters…)

018. You're Terrible, Emma: 'Muriel's Wedding' & 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert'

Emma might try and pretend she’s one of the common folk, but the sad truth of the matter is she is deeply un-Australian. Amounting to what is effectively treason, up until this point Emma hadn’t seen the CLASSIC camp Australian films ‘Muriel’s Wedding’ (1994) and ‘The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert’ (1994). Thankfully good old Guncle Pat was here to help! This week we talk Drag Race Down Under, musical theatre, confetti, ABBA, Tweed Heads and so much more. Guys, things got a bit gay this week… and we’re not even a tiny bit sorry about it.

017. When Harry Met Hannibal: 'When Harry Met Sally...' & 'The Silence of the Lambs'

This week we set out to fully meet the brief we set ourselves when starting this podcast; two films that are indisputable, absolute classics, that contrast each other greatly in genre and content, and that neither of us have ever seen before. And shit me, did we succeed! Listen to us talk ad nauseam once again about New York as we discuss ‘When Harry Met Sally…’ (1989), and then for bonus points count how many times we say the word c*nt as we discuss ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ (1991). (Extra points if you count the times we say it in the intro and outro… sorry Mima!) Emma laughed, cried and screamed this week, and Patrick smirked at her reactions and didn’t really otherwise react. We’re starting to suspect there’s something wrong with him…

016. Dude Week: 'Top Gun' & '8 Mile'

’Scarn carrrnts? ’Sfarkern Dude Week m8! Yeh boi!!1! Join us this week as we journey into the dark, dark unknown lands of films lauded by heterosexual men. Starting ‘Somewhere in the Indian Ocean’ with the high-octane and notoriously homoerotic ‘Top Gun’ (1986), we then veer to Detroit to wax rhapsodic about ‘8 Mile’ (2002). Is ‘8 Mile’ a bio-pic? Is Tom Cruise really that awful? (Yes.) And just what does a factory sound like? We dive into these movies to find out! So, adjust your balls, spread your legs across two seats and keep on earning more than your colleagues unquestioningly, while every day living an entirely privileged existence unthinkingly, coz this week it’s all about YOU (for a change…)

015. Christopher Nolan Week: 'The Dark Knight' & 'Inception'

015. Christopher Nolan Week: 'The Dark Knight' & 'Inception'

This week we paid a visit to the oeuvre of auteur director Christopher Nolan. We're both fans of his work, but there are a couple Emma hadn't seen yet. First we veered out of our comfort zone to watch 'The Dark Knight' (2008) (after watching 2005's 'Batman Begins' for homework), and then back to something more aligned to our regular programming to watch 'Inception' (2010). That's 454 minutes (7hrs 34min) of cinema, folks. We are tired. But some excellent discoveries were made! Who would have known that Batman had something to do with Bats, and that Christopher and Jonathan Nolan are not just brothers but actually the same person!

014. Emma's Favourite Films: 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' & 'Back to the Future'

As a treat to Emma for getting through two very scary movies last episode, this week we watched her two favourite movies, which Patrick has never seen and has been deliberately been putting off watching to antagonise her; ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ (1981) and ‘Back to the Future’ (1985). This episode brings with it a great deal of fascinating, intellectually stimulating discussion about SpaghettiOs, the ins and outs of famous tantrums from both testaments of the Bible, and just what exactly a Blu-ray Disc is, as well as a detailed update on the failings of Patrick’s love life. Somewhere in all that we talk about the films and Patrick manages to thirst over Michael J Fox, but uncomprehendingly forgets to do so for Harrison Ford.

013. I See DEDDD People: 'The Sixth Sense' & 'Hereditary'

AAAND WE’RE BACK! We thought we’d kick off 2021 with a pretty hectic double bill of two movies we talked about on the podcast a lot last year, but never thought we’d get to watch; ‘The Sixth Sense’ (1999) and ‘Hereditary’ (2018). Patrick has seen and loved both and NEVER thought he would convince Emma to watch them, but he succeeded! Did she love them? Did she actually shit the bed? Did she guess the giant plot twist in ‘The Sixth Sense’ almost 10min into the film? (Yes, sigh.) Did Patrick sneakily manage to programme Toni Colette Week on the down-low? (Yes, please don’t bring it to Emma’s attention.) Our episodes will be released fortnightly from now on, so tune in again in 2 Fridays’ time for our next double bill!

Double Bed Double Bill 2020 Outtakes Reel

Double Bed Double Bill 2020 Outtakes Reel

G'day, we're getting back into bed and are gearing up to start releasing new episodes in 2021! Yay! We're excited to hit the record button and make each other laugh again - our recording sessions go on for hours, and sometimes we leave the mic rolling and pick up some comedy gold that just doesn't quite fit in the episode. We've been tacking outtakes on the very end of most episodes, but just in case you've missed them, here's a couple of minutes of outtake highlights from our 12 episodes in 2020.

.

Update on our 2020 Audience Feedback Survey: Thanks for all your responses, they've been very valuable! We've closed the survey, but if you've got any feedback you're dying to give to us, drop us an email at doublebeddoublebill@gmail.com!

Thanks again for listening, and we'll be seeing you back in bed again very soon indeed!

010. Christmas Crackers Vol. 2 - Cheer Up, Charlie: 'How The Grinch Stole Christmas' & 'It's a Wonderful Life'

We are firmly into the festive season now, with supermarkets blaring Christmas songs and lists being checked twice. Continuing our Christmas capers, we watched two more classics, the movie that goes by a thousand names, ‘Dr Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas’ (2000) and the movie most people think of when you say ‘Christmas movie’; ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ (1946). We naturally manage to veer off-topic to talk about our favourite topics (sport and Catholicism), but also our favourite hobby, skin care. Most importantly, we discover who The Grinch really is, and he’s pretty close to home…

009. Christmas Crackers Vol. 1 - Emma's Family Favourites: 'Elf' & 'Gremlins'

Well it’s December, and love it or loathe it the silly season is upon us. We are ourselves rather silly, so we are doing four Christmas Specials spanning the month of December, including a uniquely special episode that drops on Christmas Day itself! This week we fed Emma Choceur after midnight and said ‘Bye, Buddy!’ as we watched two bangers that Patrick had never seen before from the Khamis/Younis Christmas Collection; Elf (2003) and Gremlins (1984). Yes, we did say Silly Season. Join us as we wander off-topic as only we know how through Tamagotchi traumas and vegetarian violations, while sometimes talking about these Christmas Crackers.

008. Grand Canyon Week: 'Thelma & Louise' & 'Forrest Gump'

008. Grand Canyon Week: 'Thelma & Louise' & 'Forrest Gump'

Y’all, this week is epic. A hole in each of our understandings of cinema as big as the Grand Canyon itself. This week we took a massive road trip across The South, and watched two pillars of American cinema from the 90s, back to back, in our longest episode yet; ‘Thelma & Louise’ (1991) and ‘Forrest Gump’ (1994). Geena Davis, Susan Sarandon, Tom Hanks, Sally Field, Brad Pitt, Harvey Keitel, Robin Wright, Gary Sinise… I mean, what else is there to say? We laughed, we cried, we ugly cried and sobbed, and each of us walked away with a new favourite. Run Forrest, Run, don’t walk to catch this week’s episode!

007. Julia Roberts Week: 'Pretty Woman' & 'Erin Brockovich'

007. Julia Roberts Week: 'Pretty Woman' & 'Erin Brockovich'

This week we pay homage to the Smile That Sailed A Thousand Romantic Comedies, to the embodiment of the 90s, to Julia Roberts. We watched two movies that neither of us had seen with a decade between them; 1990’s ‘Pretty Woman’ and 2000’s ‘Erin Brockovich’, which nabbed her an Academy Award. From garish 90s food to our recommendations for regional NSW Chinese restaurants, we had a lot to say in this week!

006. Nuts and Gum, Together at Last!: 'What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?' & 'Avatar'

006. Nuts and Gum, Together at Last!: 'What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?' & 'Avatar'

This week we decided to choose two movies that just had absolutely no business in being corralled together, and actually had the best time. First up it’s ‘What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?’ (1962), the film that rebooted the careers of Bette Davis and Joan Crawford and started a whole new genre: hag horror. And then we move on to Avatar (2009), the dream-work a decade in the making from James Cameron; an overwhelmingly large film (maybe he’s compensating for something?) which seems pretty simple on paper… because that’s what it, in fact, is. If you like your movie stars fading and desperately clambering for relevance, and if you like your sci-fi overlong and unoriginal, or perhaps you just LOVE the Papyrus font, this episode is for you!

005. The One Where Emma Couldn't Watch: 'The Ring' & 'The Cabin in the Woods'

005. The One Where Emma Couldn't Watch: 'The Ring' & 'The Cabin in the Woods'

Halloween is over, but this week we took a trip down to the Spooky Southern Highlands to visit Patrick’s parents. After doing all the driving (proud!), taking her to see gardens of tulips and buying her a 24-slice ‘Colossal’ sized pizza that measured approx 100x50cm, Patrick finally convinced Emma to watch some movies that are actually scary. In this episode full of hilarious hi-jinx, we watch ‘The Ring’ (2002) and ‘The Cabin in the Woods’ (2011). Screams were screamed, faces were covered and unforgivable awful pranks were pulled to heighten the experience. Emma suffered for your entertainment this week, don’t let it be in vain…

004. Entry Level Scary: 'Death Becomes Her' & 'Young Frankenstein'

004. Entry Level Scary: 'Death Becomes Her' & 'Young Frankenstein'

It’s Halloween this week! Even though we don’t support importing American holidays and customs as a rule, and we think that trick or treating in Australia is about as stupid as it gets (especially during a pandemic), we thought it would be fun to be a lil’ bit spooky. But not too much! Emma can’t cope with scary movies, so we walked down a quirky, kooky spooky road and were haunted along the way by a brand new film for us both, ‘Death Becomes Her’ (1992), and an absolute classic that we hadn’t seen in aaaaages, ’Young Frankenstein’ (1974). By the time we’d finished taping this episode, Patrick convinced Emma to watch some genuinely scary movies next week. Stay tuned for some real horror very soon…

003. Hey, You Guyyys! We Got a Dollar!: 'The Little Rascals' & 'The Goonies'

003. Hey, You Guyyys! We Got a Dollar!: 'The Little Rascals' & 'The Goonies'

This week we crawled back into the single beds from our childhood (we’re pretending Emma doesn’t still sleep in hers) and watched a family favourite film that featured prominently in each of our childhoods. Patrick introduces Emma to ‘The Little Rascals’ (1994), and Emma introduces Patrick to ‘The Goonies’ (1985). We’re also announcing the films for the coming week at the end of each episode now, so you can watch ahead if you haven’t seen them! Because everybody loves homework, ja?

002. Boy Meets Boy, Girl Meets Fish: 'The Shape of Water' & 'Moonlight'

002. Boy Meets Boy, Girl Meets Fish: 'The Shape of Water' & 'Moonlight'

Our first ‘Double Bill’ episode has arrived, and this week on the bed we watched ‘The Shape of Water’ (2017) and ‘Moonlight’ (2018); two very recent Best Picture winners at the Academy Awards, that somehow the both of us managed to miss seeing despite our Oscars enthusiasm. SPOILER ALERT: This podcast contains extensive discussion of the plot of both of these films, so if you haven’t seen them and don’t want anything spoiled, make sure you watch them first. (Particularly ‘The Shape of Water’ which has a twist, of sorts.)

001. Getting to Know You: Patrick and Emma Make a Podcast

001. Getting to Know You: Patrick and Emma Make a Podcast

It’s our first episode! We thought before we dived into our list of films we needed to see, you might like to get to know us a little better. So, here’s our introduction! In this episode, we have a chat about who we are, how we know each other, where the idea for this podcast came from, how it’s all going to work, and then we spiral into a discussion about the roles that movies have played in our lives, what we love, what we don’t, and some of our absolute favourite movies. Our first proper Double Bill episode will be out next week, and we’re very excited! Make sure you’ve subscribed on your preferred streaming platform so you don’t miss when a new episode is released.
