Bias opinion but...

Full disclosure, I have been friends with one of the hosts of this podcast for many years. That being said, I really enjoy these discussions about British film.
Tariq and Lester bring opposing insight about each film that compliments each other nicely. They cover both recent releases and older releases as well as a wide variety of genres. This podcast has changed the way I watch films for the better.

Absolutely Brilliant

A truly riveting and hilarious podcast that keeps you engaged, moved and rolling on the floor laughing at the same time. Genius witty humour balanced with true intellectual conversation about the world film. I would recommend this podcast to anyone with a passion for the big screen.
