Customer Reviews
Great Points. Great Chemistry.
Jacob and KC are smart about movies and they’re also super fun to listen to. I enjoy listening to episodes even for movies I haven’t seen yet.
Shameless self-promotion
This is one of the hosts, Jacob. I think we are awesome, laid back and pretty fun. Hopefully listening to us gives you some relief from the day.
Blast from the Past
I just love the topics, tones, and the humor between both brother and sister! Also, love Mazda 😂... I’m only in 1999!
