I don’t get it. David and his wife are obviously both highly intelligent people, and they graduated from prestigious universities. How is it that they have so comfortably fallen into the lazy pattern of dropping in “like” as a filler word in nearly every sentence (often several times in a sentence)? Kim Renfro does it too on Cast of Kings. It’s very annoying. I understand that language changes, but that’s a lame defense to what is nothing more than a distracting, unnecessary verbal tic.

I watch the shows to listen to Dave and Joy talk about them. Proud member of the ones.
One of the ones here! Think there are more of us than you realize. Would have loved more episodes. The Javen phone booth argument deserved a much deeper dive!
My husband and I live for these episodes. He’s already a big fan of The Filmcast. Listening to this is so refreshing especially because Joy is so miffed by what happens. Please come back next season. We have our own podcast and we know how much work it is. We appreciate your humor, your candor, and your entertainment.
This podcast led me to watch a TV show that I might hate more than any other show I’ve watched… I absolutely love it.

Timely recaps and commentary on reality television, especially dating and relationship series, combine episode-by-episode reactions with close attention to editing, casting, production choices, and the social ideas beneath the drama. Regular hosts David Chen and Joy bring contrasting reactions and lively banter, while treating cast members as real people rather than simply material for jokes. Their discussions consider dating norms, race, class, gender, parenting, representation, and the gap between a reality-TV storyline and real relationships. The format is conversational and spoiler-friendly, with coverage arriving soon after episodes and reunions air. A distinctive feature is the balance of humor and critical analysis: viewers get the p... more
