Captive Audience is more than just a movie podcast. It taps into why we watch movies--to keep up with what's new in pop culture, to experience something for the first time, and to share that experience with friends and loved ones.
Captive Audience is a reaction video in podcast form with hosts Edwin Janes, Sean Roney, and Alex Ward. The unique format allows us to keep up with what's new, catch up on classics, and share films that are near and dear to our hearts. Movies can feel very solitary, especially if we're just watching Netflix at home. But at times the best parts of movies comes from sharing them with other people. It can be laughing in the theater with the rest of the audience, debating with friends, or simply asking, 'So, what did you think?' once the credits roll. This podcast gets at why we watch movies, and as cliche as it may sound, how shared experiences bring people together.

    10 Things I Hate About You

    This week we head to a castle/high school for some Shakespeare in Seattle a.k.a. the 1999 rom-com classic 10 Things I Hate About You. Both Edwin and Alex are watching it for the first time, and - much like young high school love - it was a thrilling and wild ride. So grab your paint-filled water balloons, gas up the Toyota Tercel, and finish up your erotic novels while we dive into this iconic teen flick.
