Longer-form cinema interviews diving into filmmaking craft including acting, directing, editing, composing and so much more. I grew up watching DVD features and I always wanted to create a show that can be similar to that idea of giving audiences an understanding of the hard work and dedication that goes into filmmaking.

Kevin’s interview with Kane Parsons about Backrooms was such an eye opener for a fellow OCDer. Thank you for your insights.
Listening on Apple Podcasts.
Thank you, I love that your podcast exists!
There’s an annoying issue where advertising cuts in sometimes mid sentence.
Not sure what control you have but this is the only podcast I listen to where this happens.
Found your podcast via the Kevin smith episode….now I’m hooked!
In depth and highly enjoyable conversation s about movies.
Kevin’s passion for the art of filmmaking is the driving force in curating this fantastic series. The interviews are far more complex and personal than the atypical podcast format usually leans toward - featuring meaningful conversations for any film enthusiast (or not). There are few critics in this industry who demonstrate a real understanding of the craft, or who even care to trifle with the foundation of Kevin’s perpetual curiosity. Bravo.
