Insightful & thoughtful film criticism encased in good humour

The two anchors analyse films from two different angles with a deep dive into critical theory in the latter stages. Both are jovial and good company to keep throughout.

Outstanding!

This podcast is outstanding. Jason and Lee's opinions are always fascinating, well thought out and comprehensively researched, and often make me want to rewatch the film with their takes in mind. I highly recommend this show all round but in particular the Under The Skin ep and the Baby Driver ep. Keep up the good work gents!

A Firm Favourite

The Atlantic Screen Connection podcast is brilliant. Jason and Lee approach film in such a thoughtful intelligent manner that it always blows my mind. I come away from each episode with plenty of food for thought, reassessing the film they've just discussed. They're both great likeable hosts that will guide you on a journey of film appreciation.

Their Fate of the Furious episode is not to be missed!
