More bitesize #EFTV coming at you, it would seem!!!
Apple TV+'s latest sci-fi series is coming to a close, So we have our overview of the last eight episodes (we looked at the first two here: https://www.podcaphilia.com/eftv/ep196) for you to digest, and see if you think it holds up to the award winning novella series.
'Murderbot' is written & directed by Chris Weitz & Paul Weitz, based on ‘The Murderbot Diaries’ by Martha Wells. A self-hacking security construct (Alexander Skarsgård) who is horrified by human emotion yet drawn to its vulnerable clients (Noma Dumezweni, David Dastmalchian, Sabrina Wu, Tattiawna Jones, Akshay Khanna, Tamara Podemski). Murderbot must hide its free will and complete a dangerous assignment when all it really wants is to be left alone to watch futuristic soap operas and figure out its place in the universe.
Here's our next bitesize edition of #EFTV!!!
Apple TV have adapted a true crime podcast, into a new 9 part drama series.
'Smoke' is directed by Kari Skogland & Joe Chappelle, and written by Dennis Lehane & Adriane McCray, based 'Firebug' by Truth Podcasting Corp. Tensions rise as the search for suspects begins. Michelle Calderone pumps the brakes on her personal life. Dave Gudsen gets creative.

To mark this most auspicious annual date, 'Echoes From The Void!' #EFTV is getting the 'AJ Treatment'!!!
That's right people, the ever great AJ Feuerman came through with something slightly different this time out. Instead of a movie, we're taking a look at a new TV pilot, AND sitting down with not only the creative mind behind, BUT he also stars in the show! We get the story of how it all came together, the hurdles faced, the choices behind casting and so much more. A REALLY great confab, that I'm sure you'll enjoy!!!

Well, who'd have figured that 'Echoes From The Void!' #EFTV would be looking at true crime!!!
It's all down to Kelli McNeil-Yellen who came with an offer I couldn't refuse (she sent an e-mail an asked lol)! BUT, really glad she did, cause this new documentary is legit! THEN, we get to break bread with one of the directors and architects of the project, and find out what is the draw of the genre, why this case, and why structure things in this way!

It's time for some more Festival fun with your good ol @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ podcast!!!
Thanks to Shirly Goregham and the GREAT people at The Horror Collective, we get to dive into this year’s FrightFest.
We're starting off with a film that was a HUGE hit at Panic Fest earlier in the year. It's got clowns, and a LOT of intricate layers that delve into the human condition! This is the first part of our look at the film, AND we have one of the leads stopping by for a great chat about bringing her character to life and stepping into this complex world! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/IJ0e3te7k2s
We do not stop at @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ podcast!!!
The festivals keep rolling, and we quickly pass through the Queer Screams Film Festival, thanks to Brad Johnson & Rosa Ramirez at FONS PR, to check out a vampire romp. AS well as, sitting down with the films writer / director to get into all the minutia of the shoot! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/PD0HHdFGt-w

It's September, which means things are headed to the Accor Arena, Paris, France, for some UFC action!
This card had debuts, there's potentially fights to stay in the promotion, AND for maybe the next crack at a title. So there was a lot happening, we then get a new fight added, BUT things have shifted again. Unfortunately, Farès Ziam had to withdraw, so Harry Hardwick has stepped in to fight Kauê Fernandes, and their fight has switched places with Sola vs McKee!
We didn't find out the news until after everything was locked, BUT @ChinCheckPod (ep 269) has got everything else covered, so you can just sit back and enjoy 'UFC on ESPN+ 116: Imavov vs Borralho'!!!!
We delayed the podcast slightly for our ‘Dana White's Contender Series’ (DWCS) recap, as there’s no ‘Preview’ episode this week!
We do though get to recap all things 'UFC on ESPN+ 115', the debuts, upsets and standout showings.
Going 8 - 4, wasn’t bad, so sit back and let @ChinCheckPod (ep 268) help you relive all the action from ‘UFC Shanghai’!!!
After all the excitement of Chicago's PPV, the Octagon now finds itself in China's Shanghai Indoor Stadium!
Though there aren't all the marquee names from the previous week, this 'UFC Fight Night' still has pivotal match-ups. The featured bout could help clear-up the next challenger for the Heavyweight crown, and the 'Co-main' most definitely has Featherweight title implications!
So sit back, and let @ChinCheckPod (ep 267) preview all the potential fisty cuffs for 'UFC on ESPN+: Walker vs Zhang'!!!!
We said questions would be answered after 'UFC 319', and holy moly, they were answered ten fold!!!
Similar to 'UFC on ESPN 52' back in December 2023, we had back-to-back explosive finishes, BUT this time around there was more significance behind them. An 'Ultimate Fighter' champion was crowned, a number one contender was ordained and everybody wants to be a nerd!
Things ended 6 - 6, but when you have a PPV packed with so much, it's a good night. Plus it means that @ChinCheckPod (ep 266) has a LOT to recap as we dive into 'UFC 319: du Plessis vs. Chimaev'!!!!
BIG questions will be answered on Saturday night at the Chicago's United Center, as the UFC hits town for the August PPV!
There's a high profile debut, 'Ultimate Fighter' champions will be crowned, a contender gets a crazy springboard, AND the championship strap is on the line, with everyone wondering.....can the champions style continue to confuse & work, can the contender survive in deep waters!?!
We try and answer all these questions on @ChinCheckPod (ep 285) and give you all the insight into 'UFC 319: du Plessis vs. Chimaev'. As well as recap 'Week 1' of 'Dana White's Contender Series'!!!!
We're getting behind the lights & cameras for 'Part TWO' of @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ this week!!!
Back on 'episode 389' https://www.podcaphilia.com/echo-chamber/ep389 we got a look at a new film inspired mockumentary. Schedules didn't quite align then, BUT now we get to chop it up with one half of the creative team, that brought the dry hilarity to the screen!!!
