- Lovely Podcast!
I really enjoy your takes on TikTok, and that’s why I’m following your podcast now. It’s full of good conversations and insightful commentary. The only gripe I have is small and quite fixable, which is the sound; it’s so much quieter than the other podcasts I listen to, and I have to adjust the volume. Even at full volume, it’s still hard to hear. Anyway, hope you don’t mind the constructive criticism. Thank you!

Excellent podcast that deep dives into specific films and their themes. I just really enjoy the nerdiest in depth analysis!
Apple Podcasts5IPF19United States2 years ago - Love podcast- one piece of feedback.
I love this podcast so much. I really love the idea of there being so much media out there that they are able to narrow it down so I do not waste my time and watch things within my interest. I really enjoy the commentary and the sense of humour. If I could give any feedback, and I apologize this more work for you, I would love a list of movie recommendations that are applicable to each episode. Obviously someone would be shorter than others, but I’m usually listening to it while doing work or wo... more

I love how passionate Megan is about film and the industry. I don’t always agree with her but I never feel upset about it because she always comes to the conversation with good faith. Love when she was guests but also love when it’s just her ranting about a topic or specific movie.

As a young girl who always got a bit too obsessed with her favorite media as a kid turned teenager with aspirations to go into the film industry, particularly with hopes to expand the depth of female portrayal on screen this podcast is everything i could have hoped for and more. I originally found Megan through TikTok and would always stop whatever i was doing as soon as i saw she had a new commentary/analysis out and imagine my absolute joy when i found out that she not only has a podcast but t... more
