“Christmas is a very busy time for us, Mr. Cratchit. People preparing feasts, giving parties, spending the mortgage money on frivolities. One might say that December is the foreclosure season. Harvest time for the money-lenders.”

It’s nearly Christmas and from both of us we would like to say thank you to everyone for your support throughout the years and 2026 will be another fun year in the land of 80’s Adventure.

This last episode before the end of the year has us venturing to Victorian London with the Muppets and the legendary Sir Michael Caine. So, grab a Baileys and sit by the tree as we break down this take on the greatest story ever told.

“Would it please the court if I gave you your Christmas card? I don't think I'll see you again. Unless I get arrested, which is highly unlikely because it's Christmas Eve and I'm going to bed uncharacteristically early.”

Ho- Ho - Ho!

Another decade breach this week for Christmas and this week we venture to New York in the 90s for Miracle on 34th Street.

This remake of the 1947 film is fondly remembered by both of us and we hope that it has aged well. Join us to hear our thoughts and ramblings as we keep the festive train going with this one.

"Get outta here, you nosey little pervert, or I'm gonna slap you silly!"

After nearly a year away we are delighted to be back with a whole bunch of new episodes starting with this Christmas gem.

Yes, it’s the 90’s but 80’s Christmas films are hard to come by and besides, if you can’t decade breach at Christmas when can you?

So, join us as we get lost in New York with Kevin McCallister and try to avoid the Sticky Bandits.

We want to thank you for sticking with us even as we took a year off but there is plenty more to come we assure you, so with that in mind just sit back and enjoy this festive episode of Darren and Matt’s 80’s Adventure.

“The problem is, Jessie... I don't believe in Santa Claus anymore.”

Ho-Ho-Ho.

This week we are looking at a film we have debated doing every Christmas and that film is 1986’s Prancer. Starring the wonderful Sam Elliott, this Christmas adventure follows a young girl who finds a wounded reindeer and believes it is the infamous Prancer.

So what did we think of this film? Did it ignite the festive joy in us or leave us feeling as cold as a reindeer's nose? Grab an apple cider and join us in another Christmas episode of Darren and Matt’s 80’s Adventure to find out.

“You're the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

This episode we catch up with John McClane as he goes to pick his wife up from the airport at Christmas and well, you know the drill. With a slight decade breach we head to 1990 for Die Hard 2. It’s a tough task to live up to the original and in this episode we see if it can be done.

So, grab one of Al’s Twinkies and join us as the countdown to Christmas begins.

“Fine. I'm gone. It's done. And you can go back to doing whatever you want to do, with whoever you want to do it, and whatever orifice you want to do it in.”

This episode we go to a film that neither of us had ever seen as we head to Chicago in 1986 for About Last Night… starring Rob Lowe and Demi Moore who look just as good today as they did nearly 40 years ago.

So, why not head down to Mothers Bar and see what we think about this film based on a David Mamet play from the 70’s.

“They look like big, good, strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were.”

This episode we journey through the mythical land of Fantasia and beyond with Bastian, Atreyu and a whole collection of quirky and wonderful characters. This gem from 1984 still captures the hearts and imaginations of children and adults alike today, so why not take a listen and see what we have to say about this film in its 40th year.

So, go up to the attic, open up your podcasting player of choice and join us as we delve into… The NeverEnding Story Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

“There's something out there. That... that witch in the cellar is only part of it. It lives... out in those woods, in the dark... something... something that's come back from the dead.”

Happy Halloween!

This episode we are getting “groovy” with Ash in Evil Dead 2. This bonkers Sam Rami film from 1987 has an amazing cult following but will it have two more by the end of the episode?

So let's all sit back and celebrate the spookiest night of the year with this madcap film and a well earned beverage of your choice.
