This is a truly wonderful show. Travis Mushett does an amazing job bringing Weimar Germany to life through his incredibly lively and engaging commentary on the most important films of that era. The rhythm and flow of this show is flawless. It is hard to believe that this is Travis Mushett’s first podcast. It is compelling, passionate, and at times deeply moving. A great listen.

There are so many film-related podcasts out there, a large proportion of which cover “classic” cinema, and most of them are disappointing at best, inane at worst.
This one, however, is the real deal, providing fascinating biographical background and historical context to the most turbulent and productive period in film history: Weimar-era Berlin.
It’s not only informative but engaging, humorous, passionate and political.
