OCC (and their Patreon) is my go to media podcast. Their reviews are hilarious and insightful. They come off as the most realistic duo in tv/movie reviewing: good opinions and ideas without being highbrow media snobs
not only oysters, but clams and cockles as well!
Great observations and POV - these guys make me chuckle and their Patreon content is great, I loved listening to the Sopranos podcast on there. Great back catalogue to go through. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Been listening for years and at this point I watch certain shows just to be able to listen to the companion episodes. Already had love for these guys and personally, knowing where they stand politically has just made me love them even more (shout out to the right wing hater who felt the need to leave a negative review. i see you, i hear you, and i don’t like you 😘)
Ross & Barrett are the best for tv analysis, recommendations and fun. Just a couple of dudes having a laugh discussing the shows of our time. Shoots the gap between hangout and nerd chat.

This show provides in-depth, spoiler-aware breakdowns of prestige TV with a focus on high-budget, complicated narratives and the craft behind them. Episodes routinely dissect storytelling choices, visual storytelling, production values, and performance, while weighing theme, pacing, and how ongoing arcs land within a season. The hosts balance sharp analysis with approachable banter, often bringing metatextual context about industry, budgeting, and the creators' broader influence. A standout trait is their long-running chemistry and willingness to push boundaries in discussions about representation, fandom culture, and the tension between spectacle and character-driven storytelling.
