Customer Reviews
Amazing mix of critical analysis and fun humor!
Eric and Jessica do a great job of examining movies that are often considered nostalgic "classics" and their contemporary remakes/sequels. They masterfully blend astute observations and critical analysis with fun humor and charming personalities. A must-listen!
Excellent and enjoyable
Excellent deconstruction and critical lens on nostalgia. A good reminder that the only way out is forward, and that all storytelling has impact.
Loving it!
Really enjoying the choice of content, dialogue, and perspectives so far. I’m just a few episodes in, and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. I feel like I’m just hanging out, talking pop culture with my friends.
