Customer Reviews
Best TV Industry Podcast Available
Dan and Leslie brilliantly weave together vital industry info, interesting insights and fun interviews + reviews in such an accessible way. A MUST for anyone working in the TV industry (or just looking for a great podcast)!
Excellent, informed and entertaining
This is absolutely the best podcast about the media industry available and is a must-listen. I now subscribe to the Hollywood Reporter after discovering this podcast. Vital. Thanks guys, you’re brilliant!
4*
Really informative and the best up to the date TV news. Only downside and felt this weeks awards show episode came across as snobby and patronising towards certain shows. With almost a scoff towards if anyone enjoyed these, that the presenter seemed determined to hack down in that pretentious reviewer way
