Cool
I have been slowly soaking this podcast up over the past year or so and loving every moment. The wide variety of guest speakers is entertaining and covers a LOT of viewer types. Movie buff? Check. Space need? Check. Aviation lover? Check.I have learned so many things listening to this and would recommend anyone with an interest in film, space, machines, math, aviation, etc. to look no further for your next podcast choice.
Great job guys, I enjoy this podcast very much. I have learned a lot about Apollo 13 and about making the movie.
A great podcast, centred around the Apollo 13 movie, but also touching on all sorts of elements of obscure but interesting space flight trivia. The two hosts, Jim and Chris, are amiable and knowledgeable and each has a wealth of entertaining stories and anecdotes. Throw in plenty of interesting guests, and this becomes a brilliant podcast for anyone interested in space flight, aviation or movie making. Highly recommended!
Jim O’Kane and Chris Henry have outdone themselves with this great podcast. Their interactions are quite engaging, and let’s face it, they are talking about one heckuva good movie. Make sure you subscribe to this one!!
This has been a very interesting series. Not what I expected but all the better for it. The amount of trivia I have learned is off the scale - much of it nothing to do with the movie! All the guests are very well informed in their field and a good conversation is had. There have been a few gaps in recording episodes (only noticeable if you listen ‘live’ of course) but an unintended consequence of that is the series has continued to be recorded through the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 13 missi... more
I was so excited to listen to this. But they talk so fast I cant even keep up! I am a native english speaker with a high level of education. How are others going to follow?
Wasn't what I was expecting and almost gave up a few minutes into the first episode. Glad that I didn't an am now ploughing through the episodes.
I listen to a lot of Movies by Minutes podcasts. I love the format. Apollo 13 Minute is sort of unique in focusing on the real story and the people who lived it. Of course they also discuss the filmmaking but it’s a real treat to hear the stories of this incredible event.
I’m a podcast buff & it doesn’t get better than this!
Love the show!!
I just recently discovered this podcast and am enjoying it so far. I’m a NASA engineer and space buff so can appreciate the minute by minute dissection of the technical aspects of Apollo 13 but also find the behind the scenes and moviemaking stuff very interesting. Can’t wait to make it thru to splashdown!
If you’re listening to this podcast you obviously love the move Apollo 13. A movies by minute, but this is done differently; These guys use the movie as a catalyst for some very interesting and in-depth discussions on the history, people, and technology that made this such a compelling story. Plenty of amazing co-hosts that bring first hand accounts of what went on. Most podcasts I listen to are on in the background when I’m doing something else. Not this one- I sit and listen and soak in the g... more
This podcast is very well made, informative and entertaining! Keep up the good work guys! I’m in for the long haul!
Excellent podcast, highly recommended
