Folks on Film is a chat show about parenting and movies. Every episode, Sam and another dad watch a movie with a dad in it. Then, they come together and use the film's depiction of fatherhood as a way to talk about their own dadding experiences and big-boy feelings. This show is produced for 94.9 MainFM on Djarra country, Castlemaine, Victoria. In the future, the show will include mums. This podcast is playing catch-up to the radio broadcasts, and mums come into it at after about 20 episodes. Be excellent to each other. *Please note, our show cover artwork was generated with AI.
