THE PREDATOR

THE PREDATOR

So, THE PREDATOR is back and badder than ever, in another installation of the once Arnold Classic! This movie looks absolutely incredible! While, we cannot wait to catch it in theatres once it is released on September 13th in UK Cinemas.

Plot: THE PREDATOR

From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.

SoleSeekers

Soleseekers

Ortis Deley returned to the show recently and came by to chat to Marcus about all things tech and gadgets! However, Ortis wanted to discuss his brand new documentary that is coming out very very soon! It’s called SoleSeekers and focuses on all things UK sneaker based culture!

Ortis is helping his friend Emil, who has written, produced and directed the UK’s first ever feature length documentary on the UK Trainer scene. They grew up in the 80’s and 90’s and trainers played a special part in their lives growing up. Sneakers then have a special place in their childhood and conseuqently thier teenage years. Bringing with them nostalgia, history and passion!

Emil in his research found out that some of those who were once passionate sneaker lovers grew out of it. He certainly didn’t and decided to make the SoleSeekers film. The more he researched about the UK sneaker scene, the more he realised that there were more people just like him. Just as passionate and just as devoted to their sneakers!

When it started

Emil Started the project 4 years ago, out of the passion for the culture, he noticed a gap in the market and an opportunity to share with the world his love for sneakers and consequently the UK’s love of sneakers. It wasn’t as readily available as it is now and he feels as though it’s the right time to document the history of the scene! Trainers are an £8B industry here in the UK and he wants to share this with the world with the help of you!

Help the guys make the film get made by donating to their Indiegogo campaign! Simply click here to get involved!

Glassmates

Glassmates

Ortis Deley returned to the show recently and spoke to Marcus about an all manner of things tech and gadets, but, he also spoke to us about Glassmates! A brand new experience from Ortis himself and a couple of his friends Nigel and Jimmy.
With Glassmates you’re asked to experience an exploratory journey through alcohol! The Glassmates (Ortis, Nigel and Jimmy) seek to show people a better way to enjoy drink, regardless of their budget! The main aim is to simply improve the drinking experience for you, the consumer. For example, if you decide that you wish to drink a rum and coke. The Glassmates will guide you how to make the best rum and coke you can. Consequently the best rum to go with what mixer and even explain as to why no mixer may also be a good choice.
The Glassmates have a brand new experience that is coming soon that they wish to let you all know about! It’s called:

The Whiskey Experience

Throughout the day the Glassmates are hosting Whiskey Tasting Sessions. Each Glassmate is championing two whiskies to get your vote as the BEST whisky available! So you guessed it, you get the chance to test (and taste) SIX different whiskies! Furthermore each of the Glassmates will guide you through the tastes and nuances of their own whiskey.
Consequently at the end, if you’re still feeling thirsty, you can ask the bartender to make you your favourite whiskey cocktail from the experience.
You can buy your WHISKEY EXPERIENCE tickets online here https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/eat-food-fest-reigate-tickets-41836586356

Flight Challenge

Much like the Whiskey Experience, each of the Glassmates have created a spirit based cocktail which again you’ll be able to taste and buy. Yet on this challenge each of the tastee’s will be given a voting card to vote for their favourite cocktail.
