Cultural Capital Podcast

A fortnightly film podcast about Melbourne and cinema, with Anders Furze, Eloise Ross and Andy Hazel

Cultural Capital is a podcast from film reviewers and pop culturalists Eloise Ross, Anders Furze and Andy Hazel. Each fortnight we look at films opening in Melbourne and the conversations they start. Sometimes we review a film set or shot in Melbourne, sometimes take a look at a season or retrospective offered by Melbourne's fine filmic establishments.
