Customer Reviews
For all a24 fans!!
Great podcast to those who loved a24 films. I love your insights and how you guys break down whats going on with the films. 2022 has been a great year for a24 and i’m hoping the same for this year and forward.
Exactly what i was looking for
The hosts offer a succinct look at specifically A24 films. There’s other podcasts that do the same, but I prefer the under 30 minute review of this one. Both hosts stay on topic and seem to enjoy reviewing the films. I really hope they continue this podcast. Im actually quite shocked they have a 1 star review. That seems totally unfair, this a great podcast.
