- Delightful and Engrossing
This show is a true gem and well worth listening to if you have even a passing interest in film music. The Evolving Sound of Science Fiction Cinema subseries, specifically, is truly exceptional and functions as a good primer on classic sci-fi films one might have missed out on over the years. Keep up the excellent work!

I’ve been a casual listener of this podcast for the past few years. The new series entitled “The Evolving Sound of Science Fiction Cinema” is a real treat. I’m old enough to remember watching most of the films in part one (and I’m guessing part two, too!) on my local TV late night and Saturday afternoon SciFi creature features (Thank You ‘Houlihan
Apple Podcasts5clevemarkUnited States4 years ago - Great stuff
Excellence and accessible podcast about film and television music, that doesn’t go for the obvious and overplayed.
Apple Podcasts5FforFakeUnited States6 years ago - Great podcast for music score lovers!
I’m enjoying this podcast more and more. Latest episode covers music Stu Phillips wrote for the original Battlestar Galactica. These scores stand the test of time and have really interesting back stories.
Episode on Franz Waxman is very enjoyable. It’s nice to hear the rich scores from Hollywood’s golden age, and to learn where John Williams took his lead for the heroic scores he would later compose.
Apple Podcasts5JLFansonUnited States7 years ago - Lovely stuff.
I'm new to this podcast, but I've got to say that it's really interesting and entertaing. Brian McVickar has a genuine enthusiasm for film music and it really shows in his presenting style. It is also really wonderful how we get excerpts of the soundtracks and comparisons with some of the composers that many of the greats were inspired by.

SO, SO, SO good. If there's another podcast that discusses this topic as well, I haven't heard it. This is interesting and informative without ever being dry--the host is knowledgeable and super personable. Every episode introduces something new to me--I love it.
