This is my third year listening and Mike and mike always serve up the best dosage of moviemaking fun alongside intelligence and humor. This is my favorite awards season podcast. The gambling odds are the best, even though I have no idea how to find a bookie or bet, I always laugh along with them as they plow through Vegas’s inane odds. Thanks mike and mike for a thoroughly enjoyable awards season stop off. David is my favorite guest by far.

quite possibly the least qualified people doing awards coverage. they automatically think that their opinions of a movie are every voters ever even when said movies have already been clear proven awards magnets. the film twitter equivalent of Fox News

Both Mikes are great. They have a great rapport that pulls you in and keeps you entertained while they discuss movies, those who make movies, and the awards associated with movies. I think this show has a lot of staying power, and it’s a good companion during long car trips. It was easily accessible to me as a new listener, and I appreciated that it stands apart from other movie review podcasts with its specific, understandable premise: It’s a podcast about movies that, according to the show description, “celebrate[s] the Oscars by making awards season year round.” I will add that they discuss awards other than the Oscars as well, such as Golden Globes, BAFTA, PGA, etc.

Hi I’ve been a long time listener of the podcast and love both of your takes on the film industry and awards races as a whole. I recently attended SXSW for the eighth time since 2016 and it was for the most part a pretty decent year as far as the film lineup goes. However, I just wanted to inform you guys in case you didn’t already know that we should probably take many of the reviews coming out of here with a BIG grain of salt if they are from the huge industry trades owned by Penske Media (I.e. Variety, Deadline, Hollywood Reporter, IndieWire etc.). When SXSW nearly went bankrupt after cancelling in 2020, Penske Media bought a 50% stake in SXSW, and therefore the festival gets immense coverage and the trades are generally extra favorable in their coverage of it. That’s not to say there are always some real gems that play SXSW, and it’s a great time nonetheless. I just think some of it is getting overhyped due to the interests involved. Still love listening to your podcast each week and look forward to your continued coverage.

The hosts mirror, my conversation about movies with my friends. Start talking deeply about the themes of the film and then somehow it’s lead to what meal we had at night. The Mikes are awesome. Great film podcast.

As a listener of many film/Oscar podcasts, these Mikes definitely have a rapport of their own and a dialogue unlike any other. As someone who doesn't live in a metropolitan area to see the latest films, I turn to podcasts for different perspectives of the film scene at large, East coast to West. Thanks for your dedication and hard work, Mike & Also Mike. Maybe someday when I grow up I'll be a podcaster like you.

No other Oscars/movie podcast is as consistently entertaining. Mike and Mike mix the personal and information about the movie industry better than any other podcast. I even listen to most of the horror movie episodes, and I don’t care about horror movies. Thanks for the information and the laughs!

It’s such a refreshing Oscar conversation to listen to! Mike and Mike are real people who love the Oscars and love talking about movies. Listening to them and their guests is like stepping into time machine and going back to a time when you used to just love talking about movies….before college when life makes you cynical and teaches you to hate everything. I love listening to every minute of this show because it reminds me why I love talking about movies!

Though I like the show for it’s Oscar predictions and box office talk, I’ve long ago stopped listening to the review shows. You know when a critic likes what you like it becomes a handy guide but I disagree so much with M&M say and think that I just don’t find their reviews to be useful
