Iain and Gavin are back after their most recent break to discuss what we’ve been up to (#LegendOfPontianak) announce the winner of our Greenroom136.com Genesis backpack and provide our thoughts on Marvel’s Black Panther. As usual we keep all spoiler talk to the very end of the podcast.

This includes the sidekeep (pic below) that Gavin talks about using while making his film on the podcast.

Plug time! A couple months before #thelegendofpontianak shoot, I asked @greenroom136, Malaysia’s best kept secret in urban carry gear (and proud sponsor of #mcyapandfries), to whip something up for me just for the shoot and I got this beauty. And it’s been f**king awesome. I hate having a bunch of shit in my pockets and not only has this thing managed to hold all this crap in it, but it’s also unexpectedly become a really great armrest haha. #thelegendofpontianak #greenroom136 #urbancarry #malaysianmade #handmade #malaysianproduct #worldwideshipping #mcyapandfries #directing #shooting #shamelessplug
