  • Yes I'll listen weekly, however..

    Regardless of the fact that we’re most likely all on the same political aisle, the main host comes off as pompous and seems like no one id like to hang out with IRL. The other contributors are who I come to this very listenable podcast, (you know what I mean?) 🤢🤮

  • A great awards podcast and an awful film criticism podcast

    Please please stop saying “unless if….” at the beginning of sentences.

    A major issue with the pod is the hosts’ lack of eloquence and coherence when it comes to reviewing films. Phrases like “I enjoyed myself” “I had a good time” or “I’m intrigued” - are so overused and offer little to no insight whatsoever.

    This podcast is really insightful when it comes to keeping up with the major awards races, as the hosts do indeed follow the trends and seem to have some access to the industry insiders.

  • Politically butthurt and mundane.

    Used to be an alright show, but one of the hosts was angry that a particular movie didn’t lean politically to the left when this country “needs it badly” according to him since Trump is in office. As a Trump supporter this is stupid to hear because that stance doesn’t represent me. I came for a movie review, not to hear somebody get butthurt that a movie didn’t voice his personal feelings he’s reflecting on an entire country when Trump won in a landslide including most of California when broken ... more
