Any questions for this week’s Empire Podcast, folks? Reply to me or send me a DM. Don’t forget to use the hashtag #TotalBS.

Yes, @chrishewitt.bsky.social and I are shamelessly plugging again, in another episode of The Shameless Plug, talking about the highlights of our new issue - and some tales from various sets. Have a listen. And please check out the issue: it’s - yep - fantastic. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Really loved talking to Kyle MacLachlan for this. What a damn fine gent. And @mikemuncer.bsky.social’s Mark Frost interview is aces!

Here’s a thing I did that might be of some interest to some of you.

Warning: this podcast contains relentless gushing over The Ballad Of Wallis Island, a discussion of the best films that start in media res (but we didn’t mention your favourite film, probably), and Al Pacino yelling in German.

Heads up: John Virgo’s favourite film is on TV this Sunday.

I’m back from holiday/mainly illness, and kicking things off with our THUNDERBOLTS* spoiler special. Any questions/comments for our team of scrappy underdogs? Slide into my DM void…

Amazing stuff. Did anyone else experience The Convergence in a similar way?

Sophie, and Helen, and James are great on this, and the first three episodes of Andor, in our spoiler special, which will be up around noon.

Doing our SINNERS spoiler today. Any questions/comments for the team? Slide into my DMs!

Meanwhile, I’m off to see a man about an asterisk. Crack that cryptic clue!

We will be doing weekly Andor specials too, but recording on Thursdays to allow everyone time to watch three episodes. Send your questions to @jamescdyer.bsky.social, as he’ll be hosting those. Not sure if he has his DMs open. Almost certainly not!

Onto my final season (18) of Taskmaster, which means I’ll have caught up before the new one begins on May 1. Have to confess, the presence of a certain someone is making this series a bit of a grind.

Daredevil me up. Daredevil question me right up.

Down with internet vampires.

Here. Ain’t?

Blocking anyone and everyone who advertises on Twitter is crucial to my mental health. Major company? Blocked. Obvious AI bot spewing out absolute nonsense? Blocked. Accurate prediction of this week’s winning Euromillions numbers? Bloc… oh, shit.

Yes please. Scoop me up some of this silly shit. I need it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEuM...

Here is a podcast. Ain’t that enough?

And do buy the issue once you’ve had a listen. Or buy before you listen. But the emphasis here is heavily on buy the issue.

In a new regular series on the @empiremagazine.bsky.social podcast we’re calling The Shameless Plug, @chrishewitt.bsky.social and I talk through the contents of our latest issue, sharing a few secrets and, here, revealing which A-list star is obsessed with jellybeans. Have a listen! t.co/djssIdleY5
