This podcast is so incisive and interesting and well-organised. I'm so tired of the "3+ randos ramble aimlessly about something they love but have no particular expertise on" genre of podcasts. Happily, this is the opposite. Well informed, well structured, insightful and generous.
I’ve loved BW/DR’s written content for over ten years, so when I wanted to check out some podcasts I came right here. The podcast follows the tone of the magazine: incisive film analysis rooted in emotional connection to the source text. Great podcast!
Veronica and Chad are the BEST hosts to listen to— they complement each other perfectly and lead conversations about film that are both deep and fun. What a slate of guests, too!
