  • Its easy to love this show.

    602 Club quickly became a regular entry in my podcast rotation. I enjoy the analysis of new movies or shows, but I love revisiting older movies which maybe I hadn’t seen in years. 602 Club makes the classics feel fresh. Thank you for both the entertainment and thought provoking content.
