  • Another gem of a podcast from the Podcast King

    Been a blessing finding such a facinating, cool free-thinker to talk movies (and John Lennon in his podcast "Glass Onion" and live & society in the classic "Life and Life Only" podcast)... been working through his shows and am learning so much and always inspsired. Also love Antony's sense of humour. I listen to a lot of podcasts and the Antony Rotunno ones are my favourites! His podcasts are mindbombs, pure TNT.

    Love this podcast - can’t wait for the next bunch of episodes. Wonderful Life is a movie that shouldn’t be lost due to its age .

    I especially like that sound clips...
