    I feel like I have my own movie club with the incre... more

  • Good but…

    That Dan guy is so annoying, his vocal fry is so stupid and he drags it out, and he sounds pretentious when he tries to say Cannes, he says it normally then says it in an accent then normally again, pick an accent!!! Please get rid of him he adds nothing to this podcast.
