Thats's right, the strike's over. While we're not giving up on Eurospy just yet, this means we're no longer limited on bonus episodes. So what better a time than now to do a film Abi has been wanting to do since the very start of the show- The Edge! A brain god billionaire gets trapped in the alaskan wilderness with a man who wants to kill him. It's all very masculine.

But we couldn't do it alone! Joining us is Annie Kelly, Writer, antifeminism researcher, and Qanon Anonymous podcast's Britain correspondent!

URGENT APPEAL FOR ACTION FOR PALESTINE

There's not much I can provide here that will help assuage the ethnic cleansing we're all bearing witness to on our phones. The UN and entire international community must step in and hold Israel accountable for its ongoing genocide and relentless war crimes against the Palestinian people. The time for action is now: Join a solidarity protest, write to your MPs, do anything and everything in your power to disrupt and sabotage the machine we're all a part of that creates Death.

If you want somewhere to put money, some UK activists have been disrupting arms manufacturers that supply the Israeli war machine, and any donations go towards their legal funds, and the legal funds of activists performing actions like this in the future.

S3E7: Shots in 3/4 Time

This one is inexplicably a spy movie funded partially by the City of Vienna for tourism purposes. I say 'inexplicably' because Vienna looks like an absolute heap of shit for the entire movie and I can't imagine this made anyone want to visit.

S3E6: Secret Agent Fireball

The Strike may be over, but our commitment to Eurospy is ironclad. 
This week, there's another dead Soviet defector, so there must be another microfilm with something important on it floating around europe. Fuck it, lets send our best spy to go have a general look about.

I'm not even going to front with you. This is my favourite episode we've recorded since Demolition Man.

This year it falls to Alice to pick our non-struck spooktacular, and she's lovingly curated Audition, a film about a japanese misogynist making a series of extremely poor decisions.

S3E5: The Great Spy Chase

When an eccentric European aristocrat dies, his wife stands to inherit his collection of weapons patents. All the great powers of the world send their finest James Bond to attempt to claim them. How could this be anything other than great?

This one is a hugely enjoyable movie thats inexplicably horribly racist right in the middle. Like a wonderful lindt chocolate liqueur filled with piss.

We told Devon to pick any movie in the world to watch, with the only requirement that it not be American. After only two real-time weeks of umming and ahhing they instantly picked Police Story 2!

Jackie Chan has been demoted to traffic cop following his successful completion of the plot of Police Story 1, until he successfully foils a bomb threat- and he's put in charge of the investigation![

S3E4:The Tiger Likes Fresh Blood

Look, I know what you're thinking, this is just another bad eurospy movie- but this movie was made by Claude Chabrol, one of the directors of the French New Wave, during his middle period. He may have made this movie entirely to keep the lights on, but he clearly used the opportunity to try some things out.

French secret Agent 'The Tiger' is tasked with bodyguarding a Turkish minister's wife and daughter during an arms trade.

This week, further to our Solidarity Position of resolutely pretending America has never made a film, we're checking out a New Zealand production! Will our hearts be warmed by this tale of two misfits on the run, or will Taika Waititi's complete inability to not cast his friends somewhat undercut the movie's condemnation of the racialised abuse endemic to the foster care system?

To help us get to the bottom of this question we've brought on friend of the show Ross Palethorpe, a youth worker and certified Kiwi!

THE MOVIES ARE ON STRIKE!

SAG-AFTRA is on strike for a number of reasons, from pay for streaming residuals, to the rights to own your own appearance, to the right to not have AIs trained off your work.

So if you've got a few spare pennies, why not chip in to help keep movies from becoming Shit Forever.
https://entertainmentcommunity.org/
https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/the-snacklist-support-striking-workers

IATSE workers are struggling at the moment as well, as they can't work during the current strike actions but aren't themselves on strike- the Motion Picture Television Fund is a 501(c)3 charity that provides a range of assistance. https://mptf.com

Additionally, SAG and WGA members started another 501(c)3 charity called The Union Solidarity Coalition - https://tusctogether.com

And if you're in the UK, the UCU could still do with some help
