Devoured this in one sitting

Well put together and engrossing. A strong first for this podcast. Look forward to hearing their future subjects. I’d always wanted to know Tarantino’s origin story but was always too lazy to read a book on him - this was a very illuminating substitute. Great job, folks! 👍🏼

Really annoying

The guy playing tarantino is really annoying especially the cereal part. He takes liberties and doesn’t have the personality or character to play tarantino. Leave the acting out. I’m a huuuge QT fan and this podcast doesn’t do it for me. If you can, ask Quentin what he thinks of it. I want to know the story but leave out the acting.
