It's a fitting return to the show for Alexei Toliopolous. His last appearance on Wilosophy inspired him to create his movie recommendation podcast, The Last Video Store. And since then, he's gone on to produce and perform Refused Classification, alongside Zach Ruane. In this hilarious and heartwarming chat, Alexei shares the huge influence Margaret and David had on his love for film, the creative approach behind Refused Classification, and how that performance has inspired him to return to stand-up with a brand new solo show.

Charlie and Guy tackle one of Verhoeven's most misunderstood films that might actually have aged the best out of all of them (except Robocop, of course). Strap yourself in for this look back at Starship Troopers, which boldly takes a cast of beautiful-but-bland Hollywood actors and delights in sending them to the slaughter, or transforming them into full blown fascists. Do you want to know more?

Do the AFL need to take a couple of leaves out of WWE's books? We think so. This week Charlie is joined by Dockers fan Rove to talk about what success looks like to a fanbase who so really get to experience it. The Giants destroy the Lions in real time, Geelong keep doing what Geelong do and Carlton's new run of form still can't bring a smile to their fans faces.

Last time Brett Blake was on Wilosophy, he told Wil a story about when he got in trouble with the law as a 16 year old. Now, that very story has been turned into a stand-up show titled Little Turd. In this all-new interview, Brett shares how he brought the story to the stage, and why he had to change its title for his UK tour. Wil and Blake also go deep on the bigger issues behind the show and Brett's personal experience, like how the law deals with youth crime, and why every kid deserves a second chance.
