  • Please don’t ruin a good show

Lately, I find myself skipping the unfunny musical tribute at the start of each episode — the cringe factor is just too much, especially with the rest of the cast’s forced laughter and overly enthusiastic, often obnoxious, fake... more

  • Was great…too political now

    You can tell which way the hosts lean…we don’t care. Who wants to hear political disses on a movie review podcast? Especially with 47 in the house…
