Drewling Samantics
Drew and Sam are actors. They haven’t won any Academy Awards yet, and neither of them is in line to be the new James Bond (sorry Sam), but between them they do have over half a century’s worth of experience in the industry. Many months ago a combination of boredom, significantly reduced work opportunities (thanks pandemic!) and overactive and under-stimulated imaginations inspired them to create a podcast, and somehow they’re still at it. Join the Drewling Samantics chaps every Sunday (or download and listen later) as they give an entertaining insight into how their industry works - from modelling to voiceover, theatre to film, and television to streamed media, the gents talk about all areas of performance artistry, giving an insider view that is sometimes humorous, often eye-opening or poignant, and at times just downright strange! With regular guest appearances and the odd special ‘on location’ segment, Drewling Samantics brings something unique and fresh to the world of podcasts from two normal blokes, working in a rather abnormal industry.

S12E13 - Affordable Awardable
Affordable Awardable
It’s the time of awards ceremonies, where new comers and regulars, remakes and rewrites, brilliance and genius are all rewarded for a job well done, and as always there have been some pleasant shocks along with the expectedly predictable results.
Looking specifically at films and their budgets, in today’s episode the boys take a curious peek at how big budget movies and their profits compare to those that, financially speaking, are less well-endowed. The facts can be rather enlightening; and we are invited to join Drew and Sam to share in their surprise at the resulting success of various films, and their astonishment at some of the investments - both big and small! And it’s not only recent films that have either cost a fortune or been produced on a shoe string, a look back at past productions reveals some interesting conclusions too!
The Drewling Samantics chaps end the season of regular episodes with a fact filled chat, but don’t despair, there are still two more visits to Season Twelve with the beloved “Best Of” highlights shows still to come.
