    This podcast is consistently excellent. Jonathan and Michael are extremely knowledgeable, don't take themselves too seriously, and have great chemistry. An easy and entertaining listen in the car, or or anywhere else, and I look forward to each episode, much as I would a prestige TV show.

    I would give the show 5 stars, but for your refusal to do a Marathon Man review!! I do think prime Burt Reynolds movie should be examined, deliverance, Smokey and the bandit, White lightning and gator(which he directed)

  • Great look at PTA’s latest

    Enjoyed the One Battle discussion. Loved the mention of Jack D. Ripper especially because halfway through the film I was thinking Sean Penn was channeling Sterling Hayden’s character & was acting in a different movie, namely Dr. Strangelove.

Point Blank
Q: Why are we the hosts of That 70s Movie Podcast talking about a film that was released in 1967?
