Proudly independent and ad-free since 2018, the [ indistinct chatter ] podcast (formerly Full Cast and Crew Podcast) stands out in a crowded field by focusing on emotional reactions to films as much as it shares the entertaining anecdotes behind their making and seeks to place movies in context with our shared experiences as filmgoers coming of age in the 70s, 80s, and beyond.

  • Deep Dives with Deep Feeling

    I could have entitled this review “Deep Dives with Deep Feeling and even Deeper Insight ” but that would be too long. The host Jason Clio does something most pop culture TV and movie podcasts don’t. It looks at the crew of these successful shows, which is ignored too often and to the detriment of determining what makes a good show. Here the stories about the people who wrote, directed and produced the stories you used to watch. Clio’s got a great voice and an obvious love of each show he reviews... more

  • was decent until…

    i got deeper into the episodes and it turned into endless political diatribes. another useless podcast that can’t just watch the films and comment on the acting, story, etc. stuck on fear of anything that is not left wing. not a movie podcast it is a political struggle session.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

299. Bearer Bonds & Movie Plots 1967-1995
Q: What is a bearer bond and how does it work in practice?
A bearer bond is a negotiable instrument that transfers ownership by possession rather than registration; historically there was no centralized owner list, which made them attractive for tax evasion and theft, but it also required laborious coupon processing and centralized paying agents to redeem coupons; in practice, ownership is proven by physically holding the bond and presenting coupons for payment.
245. Robert Redford is Dead at 89
Q: What was the first thing you thought of when you heard this news today?
First thing I thought was, well, that's unfortunate. The second thing I thought was 89 is a good run.
243. 'Making Monsters' With KNB FX Founder Howard Berger and co-author Marshall Julius
Q: What is your experience with mentorship in the film industry?
It's crucial; the legacy of special effects depends on passing down knowledge and techniques.
224. Don Simpson and the Hollywood Culture of Excess
Q: What was the moment for Don Simpson that indicated he had arrived in Hollywood?
The real arrival was after the success of Flashdance, which proved he had the golden touch despite initial doubts from his peers.
224. Don Simpson and the Hollywood Culture of Excess
Q: What do you think is the ultimate hole in Don Simpson's childhood soul that he was trying to fill or heal?
He was a sharp, sensitive kid born into a macho, fundamentalist household that didn't appreciate his intellect.
