Customer Reviews
Great on the history, but too much broishness
I really love these guys enthusiasm and interest. The production is tight and it leaves you wanting more. However there's a bit too much broish behaviour going on that can be a bit annoying and I'm a guy saying this btw. But I can look beyond it. Looking forward to what other pieces of movie Pop culture get discussed.
I like the comments from the hosts,
Fabulous podcast, I like the hosts and the style of delivery, wonderfully researched and great choice of guests, looking forward to more 👍
Great guests, banter a little tiresome.
The guys know their stuff and get great guests but the episodes suffer quite a bit from presentation. Legends such as Friedkin and Bogdanovich are frequently cut off by the two hosts chiming away from the interview. Sometimes the context is helpful but more often than not, time is taken up by jokes/banter which isn’t hugely funny and, bluntly, isn’t why a film fan would listen to this. There’s a great podcast somewhere in here and the topics are well chosen but it isn’t punching through yet.
