  • THE BOOOOOOYS!

    I came across MCFC from a read on The Film Vault.

    Since then, I’ve listened to pretty much their entire back catalog and fell in love with the show. All three hosts bring their own spice to the show and you can tell they’re true blue friends. Funny, intelligent, water cooler discussions about some classic and not so classic movies. Highly recommend for movie lovers and always look forward to their weekly eps and field trip extras.

  • Middle Class Film class is a lot of fun and I especially like the Wheel of Destiny episodes. They get an "A" in my book, which I guess is my attempt to be Peter Travers.

  • A fantastic show! Pete, Tyler and Joseph always bring great stories and streaming picks. My favorite part is the humor. Sometimes obvious, but it's the subtle humor that I like the best.

I thought that it was pretty fucking fantastic.
