I really enjoyed this episode. The Big Sleep is one of my favourite books/films. I've seen the movie more times than I care to admit, and I learned a few new things about this movie. The hosts give a thoughtful and measured take on this film noir classic, which kept me engaged throughout what was a fairly lengthy podcast. I’ll definitely be back for more.
