  • Stay on topic

    The substance of the film talk is solid but, unfortunately, some of the banter is an appallingly unfunny mixture of sexist, homophobic, and occasionally racist humor. I’d hoped to stick around for more since the podcast features a lot of great films. Good luck guys, come back when you graduate high school.

    I enjoy the podcasts but the swearing isn’t necessary. The start of the Lavendar Hill Mob was ridiculous. The Ipcress File was entertaining.
