  • AUDIO LEVELS

    Greg, Meredith, you have interesting things to say about movies and I love hearing your opinions. BUT the way the audio jumps in decibels from your content to the commercials is ridiculous! Please please please revisit how you are editing the audio levels so I don’t have to race the commercials to turn down my volume by almost 10 clicks every time. Thanks!

  • Audio Levels 😞

    Hey guys! Love the show! I have listened to every episode. Found out about the podcast from watching HTD and have been watching it for a long time there. The only concern I have about the show is that I believe the audio levels are too low. Most other podcasts that I listen to, the audio levels are much higher. Again, I am a big fan of the show and listen to every episode you guys put out. Keep up the good work!

  • So glad they are back

    I had lost hope, but like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Meredith and Greg are back. Seriously though, super great movie podcast, the banter between the two of them is always a delight.

    Studio 71 can choke on one.
