Fave movie pod

The best movie pod out there! The perfect balance of film critique, banter, funny stories, a QUIZ, and great intro songs. Find myself laughing out loud every episode whether I’ve seen the movie or not. So, so good! A must listens

I love movie podcast

Quickly became my favorite movie podcast after I listened to the exorcist episode. Jack is the man. The opening songs he does every episode are freaking hilarious. I relate to him so much, his useless movie knowledge reminds me of myself. Justin and Corey are alright too lol
The way they break the show down is perfect. Please keep it up!

Obsessed!

I listen to this pod every week and it’s my absolute favorite. Jack, Justin and Corey are such a blast and their hilarious banter makes you feel like you are drinking a spaghett right along with them (listen to the Unforgiven ep). It’s the perfect blend of astute filmmaker insight and good old movie buff fun. We love watching the movie of the week before we listen. It’s a new ritual in our house! Highly recommend!
