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.

S14E11 - We're Gonna Need Another Quote
We’re Gonna Need Another Quote
It’s probably not that tricky to predict this week’s subject matter if you take a look at the episode title! Yes, famous film quotes are the topic of discussion in this latest Drewling Samantics show, and if you’re listening to or watching this podcast it’s fair to say you’re probably a keen film fan. Like many fans Drew and Sam are fond of a good memorable and/or impactful film quote, and in fact in some instances are able to remember more than just a line or two from personal favourites. So why exactly is that important today? Well Drew has been let loose on the internet with a notebook and pen and has a challenge for Sam, and, as long-term fans will know, that always tends to have some interesting results!
As mentioned, most of us can comfortably quote a line here or there, and may even feel proud we have memorised significant parts of our favourite movies, Alternatively, we may just find cause to use a famous film phrase because it fits a certain situation. But are we always quoting verbatim? Or has a line entered every day usage and is being incorrectly recited without our knowing?
Who needs a bigger boat? Is there such a thing as a dirty rat? Could you pass that box of chocolates Mrs Robinson? Bastardising and paraphrasing aside, these (or parts of them) are all very familiar, but maybe not quite as you initially imagine! So join Drew and Sam today and enjoy spotting the errors and finding out more about some stories behind some of the most famous and common movie misquotes!
