Young Indy Chroniclers

This is such a vast, in depth and thorough exploration into the making of Indy. I was fortunate to be part of this adventure, and listening to this podcast opens doors and inspires ideas about the future and the past. Young Indy is a revolution in filmmaking. Fantastic podcast for all.

I’m so glad I found this podcast. I grew up on Star Wars (I was 7 when it came out), but Young Indy has always been one of my favorite Lucas productions. It’s a shame it largely gets ignored and doesn’t have enough people talking about the incredible efforts that went into producing it. This podcast is a great treat! The interviews with writers, directors, etc are amazing and the love and reverence with which Peter and Daniel approach every interview makes this something special. They are well-versed in the history of the show and always manage to ask insightful questions that result in so many new facts about the show. Keep up the great work!

Here is why this podcast excels, because it transcends its genre and source material. I watched the show decades ago and don’t remember it. And it doesn’t matter. Somehow, almost magically (because after all, magic is science when you cannot see the “strings”), the hosts make it look (sound) easy as they interweave context, text and subject in a way that is never dull, always insightful on multiple levels for anyone who is interested in narrative and visual storytelling, or just hanging out with interesting people who have amazing life and career stories that the hosts expertly tease out as if each person is an Indiana Jones themselves.

I’m so grateful for the professionalism that was put into something that I love so much despite such little fan support (for many reasons). Also guys, turns out there IS a Matlock podcast. Anyway well done, look forward to more.
