A history podcast with a twist: Friendly Fire uses war movies as a point of entry on not only the history of war, but the history of how societies think about war. John Roderick, Adam Pranica and Benjamin Ahr Harrison dissect movies from throughout the history of cinema, talk about film production, pedantic quibbles with costumes and airplanes, and keep you laughing the entire time.

Over and Out (2021)

Welcome to Friendly Fire, the war movie podcast that - if it accomplished nothing else - made you watch Come and See. I’m show producer Rob Schulte…here to announce that this is the end of the line for Friendly Fire. We’ve seen a lot of great movies together, and we’ve also seen USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage. But no matter what war movie we talked about, all of us who work on the show are going to miss these conversations, and we’d like to take this moment to express our gratitude to everyone who listened, supported the show, bought merchandise, and came to see the show live. If you’re a MaxFun member who supports the show, you can update your membership at maximumfun.org/manage Thanks for a few great years of podcasting. This is Friendly Fire signing off. Expend all remaining ordinance inside our perimeter.

Friendly Fire

War movies: one of the core genres of the cinema. From the earliest days of the form, filmmakers have been trying to capture and comment on war. Do these films accurately represent the battles depict? And are they more useful as depictions of history, or as artifacts from the eras in which they were made? Do enough of them have Brian Dennehy? Join Adam Pranica, Benjamin Harrison, and John Roderick for Friendly Fire the war movie podcast that answers all these questions and more. In this special preview episode, they review their own podcast in anticipation of its release!

I love the dynamic between the two junior members and their domineering older brother. It made for some great pod. Sorely missed.
sorry to see it go

I haven’t been this excited about a podcast in a long time! As a huge fan of war films, history and trivia I found this engaging and funny. Wish I could be the girl member of this discussion 🙂 5 🛀🏻
