Excellent Pod - Always Engaging and Love Alex
Have been a long time listener of Alex’s other film podcast, Clash of the Titles (also an outstanding listen), so decided to give this a try as a true “Zane-iac.” Absolutely love the show - it has a great mix of guests, well-curated format, and you can always count on Alex to bring the laughs. In particular, it’s fascinating to hear directly from filmmakers and respected film journalists which movies (and movie scenes) shaped their love of cinema. Thank you, Alex, for another fantastic pod - very pleased to add this to my stable of exceptional shows.
Excellent
I just listened to the Sam Heughan episode and it was brilliant. SO unique and engaging. It was so wonderful to hear them banter about movies with this fun framework of a plane with a theater and Sam as the host (sign me the f up). Really, really enjoyed it especially being the same age as them and 100% getting the details of the movie references and how it relates to our childhoods. Only point of argument is Last Crusade being the best Indy movie. It’s a major favorite of mine but between that and Raiders… I think Raiders might win our overall, but the fun and sense of adventure in Last Crusade is unparalleled. Anyway, love hearing an actual fan of movies host a podcast and have another actual fan as a guest. Five stars all the way.
What a fun podcast!
Scrolling through Twitter, I found Alex Zanes podcast. He was interviewing one of my favorite actors, Sam Heughan. Instead of the usual interview questions, the premise is, Alex is going on a trip to the movies with his guest. The guest determines the details about the adventure. Alex asks questions like who they will be attending with, what posters are on the wall, what movie they’re seeing, what snack they’re having, etc, and in between, the guest talks about their memories about movies and life in general. It is thoroughly entertaining! You learn lots of silly and fun things about the guest that you might not have known.
