    Emily is a fantastic storyteller and writer. It’s fast paced, never losing my attention. She’s very funny and understands movies on a deep level, she notices things about films that I thought I was the only one who noticed ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • Great!

    Emily is great. She gives a perspective that us everyday people think of these movies. She doesn’t pander to the high grossing, Oscar winning, artsy films just because that is what she is suppose to do. I have been introduced to movies that I didn’t even know were out there and enjoyed them. Keep up the good work Emily.

  • We loves tasteless

    Emily is so funny and has a great opions of movies along with some obscure recommendations we’ve turned out to love. Emily does a wonderful job on this podcast giving notice of spoilers and is mindful that everyone had their own perspective on a movie. She does a tireless and thankless job of keeping up with this podcast and needs more appreciation!
