  • Entertaining Romp Through 60s-70s Cinema

    Host Jim, with Engineer Phil and guest, discuss films from the 1960s and 1970s. They cover all genres comprising classic and not-so-classic movies. While I don't always agree with their assessment, I do find the discussions entertaining. If you like this era of movies, or want to learn more about them, give Back to the Balcony a listen.

I liked EP65 where the guest brings in The Nutty Professor (1963) and Jim is brutally frank in assessing the limi... more
