  • Very likable but…

    I enjoy this podcast VERY much. The recaps of the movies are downright fun and humorous. What I find odd is that Paige makes sweeping declarations and comments about what is right or wrong in the social construct. As it exists today. No strong foundation. Just what Paige thinks.

  • How Could You Not Love Them?

    I listen to their horror podcast and their chemistry follows here. Todd & Paige play off of one another very well. It’s always a good time between friends. I just listened to you guys shart all over High School Musical (a film I grew up loving) and I knew I had to solidify my love for your show 😂 whether I agree or disagree with your takes, I still enjoy hearing what you have to say. Keep em coming.

  • Missing the old days.

    This podcast and horror virgin were my absolute favorites. I loved the witty banter and the fun movie choices, but it’s not the same without Mikey. Paige’s personality is so loud and engaging, which is great for hosting, but it sometimes feels like she’s overpowering Todd. It’s like he’s agreeing with everything she says and has lost his own voice. And don’t even get me started on the political discussions. It’s like you’re not allowed to enjoy anything or anyone who has different views from you... more
