  • Painful

    Yet another podcast where three people confident that they don't need to research a subject think they're so interesting that people will listen to them prattle endlessly about anything that pops into their heads. There is supposed to be a focus to each episode - a film, a tv programme, a musical - but the inability to stick to the point is the hallmark of each episode. When they do get to the point, ignorance is the common factor in each episode. Listened to the Batboy episode, and the levels ... more

  • Witless, self-satisfied hot air.

    I listened to some of the Smile 2 review, to try out this podcast. It took around 40 minutes for them to even start talking about the movie. Both the moronic opening blether and the eventual movie talk were nauseatingly smug and utterly witless. A glaring example of people who, just because they’re gay, think they are intrinsically more interesting, entertaining people. Guess what: you’re not.

    How ya goin’ CCR? May I please express how elated I am DLH is back!

Thank you thank you thank you for bringing your lovely dulcet tones back to my ear holes. How I died this week: hearing Christopher mention the TV series Merlin with as above mentioned daddy Same Niell and the forever effervescent and lovely HBC (Helena if you’re nasty).

  • I'm Glad I Found This Show

    I stumbled across this podcast through a search of discussions of the film "Hereditary."

    After that, I started sifting through other episodes on films I've seen and like.

    I enjoy the chemistry between the hosts. I also am very happy to support my fellow LGBTQ podcasters.

    Keep up the good work!
