The Best Movie Podcast I’ve Found
The ACF Movie Podcast is by far the best film criticism podcast I have found, actually the best movie podcast I have found. Few film critics writing and speaking today actually care to engage in real criticism, but ACF’s host Titus Techera is one of the best doing it.
Bravo!
One of the few podcasts worth your limited time. Popular culture and political philosophy are explored in depth in order to assist Americans in saving their republic.
Truly unique
Titus & guests bring universal culture & learning to bear on the silver screen. Fantastic listen.
