The Movie Squad X RTP

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it a bazillion times - this is a very special episode of Run To Paradise. Not only is it a gajillion times more hi-fi than any of the other episodes, but it contains two ACTUAL experienced broadcasters. They may not be runners, but goddam the Movie Squad can field a conversation. I can’t describe the relief, the feeling of containment and safety, knowing that Simon or Tristan would deftly guide the conversation back on track, with a laugh, without any awkward silences, and without me having a minor panic attack while I scramble for a relevant question while realising I haven’t been listening to anything my guest has said for the last 5 minutes.

This is The Movie Squad X Run To Paradise! We review and discuss running in cinema. Not running in cinemas, but feel free to discuss that among yourselves :)

We cover Chariots of Fire, The Jericho Mile, The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, Tracktown, Run Fat Boy Run, Brittany Runs A Marathon. We also discuss the running techniques of Tom Cruise and…well mainly Tom Cruise, and whether hitting the wall a shitting yourself should be represented more in cinema. The answer? Absolutely! As my ol’ Dad used to say “there’s always Tom Cruise”

Thanks for listening! Run To Paradise is a Tarkine sponsored production, and was recorded in Boorloo on the traditional, unneeded lands of the Nyoongar people. And enormous thanks to RTRFM and the movie squad. I love you so much.
