Like seemingly every other forty-something man these days, Brett Goldstein has a podcast. "Films to Be Buried With" commenced in 2018 and, as its title suggests, sees the host ask various celebrities about the movies that they have most connected with. Oh, and he also gets them to ponder how and when they will die.
Alongside several fellow comics, Goldstein has also welcomed the likes of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, "Game of Thrones" star Maisie Williams, and none other than Sharon Stone onto the hit podcast to discuss both their movie tastes and their mortality. In a 2018 interview with British Comedy Guide, the "Ted Lasso" star explained why his addition to such a crowded field is worth an hour of your time each week: "It is a show about life, death, and films, and hopefully it's funny and also very illuminating. I've had episodes that were pure laughs and some that were really heavy, all depends on the guest and the stories told."
And if you're wondering what makes Goldstein such an authority on all things cinema, well, it turns out he's obsessed: "If I'm not thinking about comedy, I'm thinking about films. It's very detrimental to my human relationships, but what's more important? I try to see as many films as I can, and sometimes fit them around my weird schedule. Nothing better than seeing a film at midnight after a gig, in an empty cinema."
