- Insightful and comprehensive and slightly lacking
Generally satisfying coverage about and interviews with documentary filmmakers. They limit their coverage of political documentaries to left-leaning points of view. It would be great if they were more consistent about saying where the films are available to watch (theatres, streaming, cable) and provide updates on past guests’ films when they become available to watch on cable and streaming outlets.

United States3 months ago - Love the show. Wish there was a different host.
Matthew Carey has such a strange and distracting manner of speaking I can’t help but think that this show would be better off without him.
Apple Podcasts4bffhdhUnited States7 months ago - Memories of Love Returned
I’m a huge fan of this podcast and rave about it to my colleagues all the time. This week’s episode particularly sounded fascinating. I’ve added Memories of Love Returned to my Letterboxd watchlist, hoping to see it soon here in Vancouver, BC. And I, too, have been trying to pitch this show for an interview. That would be my dream, too. 😉
Have a great time off. Katja DB
