A Great Listen For Movie Lovers!

I’ve only listened to the episodes of the movies that I’ve seen so far but wow, do they want to make me watch all the movies they discuss! Their thoughtful and witty opinions are honest and often contrasting which makes for a very interesting listen. I often find myself agreeing and disagreeing with them out loud and thoroughly enjoy listening to what they have to say back at each other. They are as charming as they are intelligent and I can’t wait to see every movie they discuss so I never miss an episode! P.S. Try a Michelob Ultra Infusion Lime and Prickly Pear Cactus flavor :)

Thoughtful, Informative, and Fun

Great concept for a podcast. Hosts and real-life couple Caitlin and Matt have excellent chemistry. The fact that Matt is not a horror fan and Caitlin’s “academic corner” sets this podcast apart from other horror film casts.
