About this listen

 Welcome to Moderate Fantasy Violence, a fortnightly podcast about pop culture and the world around it, as discussed by Nick Bryan and Alastair JR Ball. Nick will probably launch into a tangent about comics, Alastair will likely go for politics. Both are equally worthwhile.Nick Bryan and Alastair JR Ball Art

    Jan 1 2026

    Just in time for your 2026 return to work (and only one day late due to Nick's holiday overindulgence schedule), it's the MFV end of year round-up for 2025!

    Featuring the usual reflections and individual top five round-ups for our core areas of both TV (12:18) and film (43:42), and then an attempt to reach a single unified top three. Will this be the year we finally come to blows?

    Plus bonus chat about Studio Ghibli movie Spirited Away and Image comic series Monstress.
