This is a really cool angle for a film and TV podcast. Great guests with great insights every episode!
Fun show where soundtracks take the spotlight. The reasons the guests have for the soundtracks they’ve picked varies greatly and keeps it interesting, and Ryan is always a well informed host.
Ryan is such an amazing and engaging host! He really highlights everything you would want to know about the music and he has amazing guests! The latest episode What about David Byrne was so fun and I can’t wait to dive down the rabbit hole for more! Everyone needs this podcast in your life so you can find your soundtrack!
I love any reason to explore a movie in a new way and Soundtrack Your Life offers that. I listened to the Shrek episode and I really enjoyed how they broke down the first two movies. I completely agree with Ryan that Shrek is great!!
A celebration of pop culture and physical media, with hosts who are passionate and knowledgeable, facilitating an engaging conversation. Love how this show offers a snapshot of a prior era of media consumption while also examining current cultural moments, a really deep dive into iconic movies/music highlighting personal connections. Really great listen!
Interesting looks at the blend of music and movies. Highly recommended for both movie and music lovers!
Ryan and SYL is an awesome show! Every episode is like a trip down memory. The conversations are always engaging, intriguing, and fun! It's a rare combination to find in podcasts nowadays...Ryan does it!
The best compliment I can give ya is even when I don’t like the movie or soundtrack, I still listen to hear ya break em down.
Awesome show.
I love this podcast. The conversation between Ryan and his guests always hit right on the connection between a good movie and a great soundtrack. A personal favorite of mine is Almost Famous. They cover everything I wanted to say on that soundtrack. Great show.
Soundtrack Your Life is a comprehensive soundtrack podcast that digs deep with interesting trivia about the music to your favourite movies. There's fun chat with guests, different perspectives and host Ryan really knows what he is talking about. A great, very worthwhile listen!
Great breakdown of film scores, soundtracks, restrospectives on film composers... you name it. I like it for the sheer amount of movie music trivia I always seem to get from each episode. Great stuff
Well, I am obsessed with the intro music to this show. And the concept in general!
Movies and music are my two favorite things and this show delivered on both. Great hosts that are not only passionate but also come across very clear. Would recommend to anyone that likes to listen to good conversation and learn some new things along the way!
I absolutely love this show! The hosting is great the premise is awesome and even if your not super into soundtracks I’d still recommend it. The quality of this show is impeccable, and I love listening to the host. I even learned a lot! Would definitely recommend this show!
more movie recap than soundtrack insight. a lot of dull, amateurish blatherings.
