    Em & Michael Review ‘Wicker’
    Nov 11 2026
    WATCH all our video eps & get other exclusive perks with Emsolation Extra @ ⁠https://emsolation.supercast.com/⁠ On the weekend Em and Michael took in the new movie ‘Wicker’ starring Olivia Coleman, Alexander Skarsgård, Elizabeth Debicki and Peter Dinklage. If you’ve followed us for a while you’ll know the anticipation for this film has been high ever since the trailer dropped and it did not disappoint. Inside this episode Em and Michael reveal what they loved, what they wanted more of and why they think it will hit differently for women compared to men. There’s much love for Olivia and Alexander and all things wicker, it’s a totally bonkers movie that doesn’t over explain things and treats the audience like they actually have a brain. Em felt it was giving ‘Princess Bride’ while Michael felt it was giving ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and both of them had TOTALLY different reactions to the end of the movie too. While it’s not a spoiler free review, there’s nothing they mention that will ruin the movie for you. Then in our Sealed Section, on our premium service Emsolation Extra, Em and Michael do a deep dive on the US midterm results and what's gonna happen next.

    WATCH all our video eps & get other exclusive perks with Emsolation Extra @ https://emsolation.supercast.com/ This week Em joins us via Zoom from Sydney where she’s hosting the National Disability and Inclusion Summit after flying up for Michael’s Halloween Party on Saturday night. Inside this episode you’ll hear about the success of Michael’s Halloween celebration and why Em thinks it’s time to start charging for a ticket. It was a huge weekend for F1 fans after Kimi Antonelli was crowned the youngest ever Formula One World Champion driver, so naturally Em is very keen to update and celebrate that with Michael. Em’s also keen to discuss inhaling back to back episodes of period dramas like ‘Outlander: Blood of My Blood’ and ‘The Other Bennet Sister’ and how it’s changed her aesthetic. Michael meanwhile has been stepping back into the darker side of the 90’s with the Netflix docu-series ‘The One About Matthew Perry’. Michael is also still gently encouraging Em to watch ‘Furious’ and ‘Dustfall’, but she remains uninterested in watching anything that bleak. Michael’s husband Adrian got to enjoy a series of ‘Leviticus’ themed Halloween outfits, Em and Michael reveal their fave Halloween costumes and the uproar over Martha Stewart’s off choice for a costume too. Then in our Sealed Section, on our premium service Emsolation Extra, Em and Michael make their predictions for the US Mid-Terms and Em wants to work through all the red flags of a cancelled first date she thankfully avoided.

Understandably a lot of people have an issue with that which Em is keen to delve into. Finally Em's youngest Elio has come up with a brand new invention to get around the no swearing rule at home. There’s also a review for the new season of ‘Nobody Wants This’ too.
