Flipping love this podcast

I wish I could give this podcast more than a 5 star rating. I love pop-culture, films and great content; this podcast has it all. The ladies give a fun deep dive into the film of the week and make you see a different view point to your own; which is always interesting to hear. Very comical too. Give them a listen, you won’t regret it.

A ride through Rom coms!

Like podcasts? Like rom coms? Then maybe think about giving The Cutaways a listen! Ashley and Justine look at a different rom com each week and give it a thorough going over, but in a chatty and fun way. They even had me agrreing with them on some points and totally disgareeing on a couple of others - and I like that in podcast, there is no point just listening to people that always think the same thing as you, too boring!! The girls have really good chemistry together and it has made me look at some films again with different eyes. Thanks ladies!

Refreshing!

I love this sideways look at the rom-com genre. Love them or hate them, rom-coms definitely have their good points and flaws, and these ladies aren’t afraid to point the issues out, yet give credit where it’s due. Really though enjoy this feminist 2018 take on an often underrated genre of film!
