Find way to find out about new movies

This podcast has a fun mix of movies you remember from 30 years ago and movies you have never heard of. The hosts are always funny and insightful no matter what they are covering

The most fun you can have without needing a booster shot afterward

This show is the confluence of silly and weird. The pantheon of co-hosts have a good rapport with one another and genuinely seem to have fun talking to each other about movies, TV, pop culture and threat own lives.
