- Movie Friends
Michelle and Seth live up to their theme song as they “tackle film without pretension”. Their overall healthy attitude towards movies and pleasant demeanor is a breath of fresh air. Even if they have a take on a movie that I don’t agree with, I still enjoy hearing their reaction to the film. I’m really excited for their upcoming movie and can’t wait to see what it entails.

I’m here for Seth (the other one) and yet I can’t help but appreciate the embarrassment of riches at the sound of another lovely Seth

This is my relaxing comfort show. Seth and Michelle’s soothing voices are like a warm blanket on a cold winter’s morning. They are also my Ebert and Roeper and/or Siskel.
Apple Podcasts5Infinite ThirdUnited States5 months ago - I Love the Movie Friends
Lovely people, great podcast. I thoroughly enjoy their completely different point of views. I’ve had the pleasure of appearing on their podcast a few times and it’s always fun & a safe space to give our opinions. As a fellow The OC fanatic, I relate to Michelle very much, but also love Seth’s fresh takes on a show I’m overly familiar with; I thoroughly enjoy hearing what he has to say about it as it’s often something I would never have thought of. Can’t wait for them to cover Season 4!
