Episode 176 - Big

You've got to be at least this tall (imagine a fairly high height) to ride this ride. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, Ethan and Georgia as we're headed to the funfair in search of a Zoltan machine in Big. It's a foot-driven duet of a 176th episode as we discuss:

• How to make exposition seem natural in dialogue
• Despite a female screenwriter and director, is Big a boys' film?
• Ian shares a few stories about going to New York City 
• What is it about boys and gross out humour - and why did Ian and Liam skip it
• Ethan has found his way back to the podcast and we don't give him a hard time about it at all
• Pip plays hell with the video feed for this episode so the other 3 have to vamp
• Ian shares stories about his Canadian Idol experience
• We consider what life was like for Mrs Baskin - because the film doesn't
• Whether or not Big is the Best Film Ever
