Cinema & Nostalgia: A Duet with Frank & Janita

This episode captures a delightfully unpredictable and heartfelt conversation between Janita and Frank, two self-confessed entertainment junkies who aren’t afraid to poke fun at themselves—or each other. From nostalgic reflections on renting VHS tapes for family movie nights to comparing their wildly different tastes in films (yes, Steven Seagal and The Notebook somehow share the same airtime), the duo dive headfirst into the wild world of movies and television.

Their banter bounces between witty and wistful: Janita opens up about her soft spot for animated classics and romantic dramas, while Frank throws in action-packed curveballs and confesses to a curious fascination with foreign TV series. Together, they bridge generational gaps, reminiscing about the good old days of rewinding tapes and dodging late return fees, while playfully criticizing the hyper-optimized world of streaming algorithms and ad-stuffed content.

As they unravel their viewing habits—past and present—you’ll find yourself smiling at the familiarity. Maybe even nodding. Because let’s face it: who hasn’t debated whether modern special effects are dazzling or just distracting? Or wondered if movies back then had more soul—or if we just miss being twelve?

Warning: listening may trigger spontaneous nostalgia, an urge to revisit your favourite childhood film, and a sudden desire to join the next Brida session before everyone else does. Because here’s the secret sauce: this isn’t just about movies. It’s about memory, emotion, and the stories that shape us. And in typical Brida fashion, Janita and Frank remind us that entertainment is more than passive consumption—it’s a conversation waiting to happen.

So… grab your popcorn (or your remote) and tune in. You’ll laugh, you’ll remember, and you just might see your favourite film in a whole new light.
Don’t miss out. Everyone’s talking about it—especially the people who haven’t heard it yet.
