281. Blackbird and Lucky You with Matt Savage

In this summer special (recorded a few weeks ago), James and Joe look at two "iconic” poker movies. They revisit 'Lucky You' (first reviewed in Episode 103) in the company of one of the film's consultants and stars: tournament director Matt Savage. Plus, the guys discuss Michael Flatley's 'Blackbird', an incredibly awful vanity project that features one of the most hilarious Hold'em scenes in cinema history. 'Blackbird' is also the subject of 'Superfan vs Stapes', as Andre Nazar returns to the podcast for his shot at redemption. #PITE returns from its summer break on Thursday August 17. In the meantime, please join our community on Discord (psta.rs/Discord).

Om Podcasten

Every week, the hosts of PokerStars TV (James Hartigan and Joe Stapleton) bring you a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like being two regular folks on the international poker circuit. Told from the perspective of a cranky British dad (Hartigan) and an undateable American bachelor (Stapes), Poker in the Ears is a mostly uncensored take on the world of professional poker. The hosts also regularly call in favours, in the form of guest spots from their big-shot celebrity poker-playing friends. And they routinely hold on-air competitions, providing chances for listeners to join them on tour.
