United States6 months ago - A new favourite film podcast
So glad to stumble across a recommendation for this, from the equally good “Why Theory” podcast. A stimulating but also fun discussion of the noir and noir-adjacent genre, with categories that rival “The Rewatchables”. This podcast deserves to run and run.

United Kingdom10 months ago - Best Film Noir Podcast
There are a few dedicated Film Noir podcasts out there. Some are highly academic while others are just normal people with a penchant for these films who tend to be more on the funny side. This one is the best blend of both. It’s highly entertaining and the hosts also know their stuff. Recommended.
