  • Favorite podcast of the year

    Nothing but 10s across this board for this podcast. I always love the serotonin rush I get when I see a new episode update about one of my fav films…can NEVER get enough Nancy Meyers content (would love an It’s Complicated ep even if it’s with one of the producers, etc). Also making an Oscar season plug for Babygirl content. Love you both!!

  • Can’t deal anymore with the host’s affirmations

    “Yeah yeah uh huh yup sure yes yeah yeah.” Such a missed opportunity. The host is clearly connected, getting impressive guests. But her interview style is just so annoying. I tried. Eternal Sunshine is my favorite movie of all time. Couldn’t get through half the episode. Unsubscribe.

  • Quirks of Interview Style Turned Me Away

    “Yeah. Right. Right. Sure. Yeah. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. No way. Right. Uh huh. Yeah. No way. Yeah. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Sure. Yeah. Ok. Ok.”

    Vocal affirmations have their place in pushing a conversation along, to be sure. But the way they’re incorporated here by the host is beyond distracting.

    I tuned in excited to hear more about my favorite film of all time, but couldn’t make it more than a few minutes.

  • The host says “yeah” a lot

    I’m glad this podcast exists. It has a lot of value and I love learning different aspects of the filmmaking process. Having said that, though, as I listen to the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind episode (July 17, 2024), I’m bowled over at how many times the host Daniela said “yeah.” It really detracted from the episode. I hope it’s something she’ll work on reducing in future episodes; it was very distracting to hear “yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, etc” while the guest wa... more
