“We won Sundance! What the fuck?” If you’re an outsider, the film industry can be seemingly impossible to penetrate. It’s even more difficult to tell your story - and have it seen - when it’s a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age tale about a queer L... more

United States3 years ago - Great podcast, too many ads!
Love the content and execution but the length/number of ads in it is insane. And trust me I wouldn’t be writing this if I didn’t think it was really bad. Hopefully you guys take a look at other podcasts and make them a similar length because multiple 2.5 minute long ads within a single episode is not it. This is one of the podcasts where I actively skip the ads because they are so long.

Just started listening and I’m hooked. Loving this deep dive into this classic LA film
Apple Podcasts5Benji FUnited States3 years ago - Lame
The host calls the SHU something other than the real actual title; he used a dropout snitch to supposedly state the truth & there’s really no
Corroboration. This was dummm
Apple Podcasts1kikiandbelindaUnited States4 years ago - Off topic
I feel it goes off topic. Could of been a very good story about the connection with the gangs and what happen but instead we are listening how until this day Latinos are still not giving enough rolls in movies which is fine just wanted to hear the story behind the movies. It’s just gets boring.
Apple Podcasts1SgdarmusUnited States4 years ago - Keeps getting better
Love the context and well-rounded framing of the time and place this movie was filmed in. This is a valuable history lesson on a part of LA culture I didn’t know much about.
Apple Podcasts5AlMalThinksUnited States4 years ago - Fire
Very informative.
Apple Podcasts5BIGSMILEYSESDLKS13United States4 years ago - Talk Show NOT Documentary
I legit learned more in 30 minutes of watching Danny Trejo interviews about American Me on DJ Vlad & a 15 min scene establishing of American Me, plus a clip of the Documentary about American Me — than 4 hours of this podcast that are 50% ads. This is so biased and overlooks Olmos’s entitlement, especially as a successful male in the Industry. They just lionize this coward for no reason. Bring up the Jerry’s Deli meeting with Trejo, but don’t say what happened! Had to go to the source. These dude... more
