This show often gets me excited to watch the ones I haven’t seen, or revisit the ones I haven’t thought about in a while. Do you like drinking games? Do you l... more

  • Spoiler Alert!

    This is an incredible podcast! Yes, that was the spoiler. But if you listen to the Mission Impossible 3 episode, you will actually find one specific plot point UNspoiled. And it is worth the wait.

    Love this show!

  • Good reviews, great banter

    A friend from work told me about this podcast. I listened to their chat about The Accountant. I’m hooked. In addition to the joy of listening to two friends riff on each other, you get some really insightful discussion of these moments in pop culture and why these movies are worth discussion.l
