To Boldly Flee | SERIES FINALE

Today we're saying goodbye to the Nostalgia Critic for a brief time, until unceremoniously bringing him back. Much like Musicals with Cheese, which was sent off two years ago, and is now unceremoniously coming back. Thank you for coming on this ride with us, and taking a chance on something broader than Broadway. I hope you'll continue to follow us HOME to Cheese.

Brigsby Bear

Hey Kids, time to reveal the truth. Andrew was actually kidnapped and forced into this family to talk about Cheese and stuff. Sadly its very similar to the film we're talking about this week, Liz Esten's pick of the film "Brigsby Bear."

A very cheesy podcast.

I like this show a lot and have listened for years, I do not like the rebrand that much because I personally enjoy musicals more, and think that it fits the format better, but the show still has the great chemistry from this trio, and it’s especially humorous when guests get involved. My only big problem is the swearing, I’m very much a prude when it comes to cuss words. But others won’t be bothered by it as much as me. Best part of the show is when they talk about that guy with the glasses. 4/5 stars
