It's always nice listening to people who know and love movies talk about movies.
I love the raw and edgy humor the hosts have, it makes me burst out in loud laughter pretty much each episode, yet there is seriousness and lots of educational value on so many levels.

Robert and Ira, without fail, consistently seem to have an excellent grasp with what’s going on in the world, how that relates to film and provide hilarious yet poignant viewpoints reminding us that conformity is boring and excellence is found in art when people challenge the status quo to create new ideas that matter to us all!

Love this show. Always keeps me interested and always look forward to new episodes. Can’t recommend it enough.
