  • Don’t talk over each other

    Great content, but often spoiled by too much cross-talk. When you talk over each other, it’s hard to hear what anyone is saying.

  • A shining light in the week

    Found these lads last year and they quickly went to number 1 on my list of weekly podcast's lucky to have had a number of my emails red out and discussed. They are friendly relatable and very knowledgeable. If you are anyway interested in films this is for you… and even if you are not it’s still massively enjoyable!
