Another reviewer already said it, but it bears repeating. Enough with the sound board- it’s objectively annoying and detracts from an otherwise solid podcast. Would have rated it a 5/5 if not for that.

These guys keep it real, and the show format is really well done. They keep on topic and are passionate about the genre and have a great group of guests that frequent the show.

Un-nuanced takes and criticisms that often showed a lack of ability to recall what happened in the movie they’re discussing.
Wow!

Straight Chilling is my go-to drive podcast. It's entertaining, funny, and informative. It helps me chose which movies to watch at home with the wife and with my friends, and which ones might be worth a pass. 10/10 show!!
