A real, down-to-earth podcast featuring guys who know their stuff

Juan and Derek are two people who CLEARLY have amazing movie knowledge. It's a podcast that is raw and truly down-to-earth. I feel like it's an enjoyable conversation each episode, so I'm looking forward to Season Two!

Finding worthwhile film podcasts can be a slog but Derek and Juan are an always delightful pair. A neat look into an oft-forgotten swath of cinema with two friends who happen to be some of the best critics around.
