Customer Reviews
A nice place to hang out
I’ve been running through Black Girl Film Club for a while now and it’s always such a nice, easy breezy listen. This podcast feels like getting invited to day drink with girls who are cooler than me but trust me with their gossip for some reason. I should be so lucky!! Ashley & Brittany are so funny, smart, and have great taste! I am loving my trip through their back catalog and look forward to new episodes. Highly recommended for anyone in search of fun, femme movie talk!
Yuck
These ladies need to find another vocation.
No Black Girl Magic Here
Too much dead air and vocal fry. Britney typically seems disinterested, and both their opinions are s__t.
