It is rare to find a podcast where smart people who know so much about cinema are somehow also funny and relatable. This show does that. Jesse Hawken seems to be able to entertainingly discuss high art as easily as Hollywood slop without a predisposition to be dismissive or boring and his guest bench is deep and interesting.
