  • Get rid of the drop-ins

    Christian,

    I love your show, and the sound of your voice is very pleasing. However, the recent attempt to change the show by using these drop-in clips is not a good thing. It’s interrupts the flow of your commentary and adds nothing to the podcast. I like your show, but it’s becoming harder to listen to it.

    Nice to get info from someone measured and smart instead of the usual left wing slant.

  • Fix the volume level

    Christian,

    I’m giving you five stars again, great content, but the technology has really been suffering lately. The volume levels go up and down in and out really Christian. You really need to fix this stuff and I say this out of love.

  • Transparent Views on Hollywood

    I first heard Christian Toto on Cam & Company, and have always enjoyed his take on entertainment. I am a big fan of his podcast and website. I truly appreciate that he looks at Hollywood and entertainment from all aspects. He may have a definite right-of-center worldview, but he gives honest, indepth reviews on all entertainment and the Hollywood “scene”. I especially enjoy his interviews!

HiT 331: Not All Stars Hate Half the Country!
Q: What makes a junket interview effective in the limited time available?
Three to four minutes is often a puff piece; the goal is to have good banter, a few noteworthy moments, and to avoid alienating studios and PR reps by pushing hard on controversial topics in that format.

Q: Tell us about the early days of your movie blogging and how you crashed the business.
Paul describes growing up with early internet culture, starting by writing reviews and building web pages, and then breaking into JoBlo when they recruited writers, which set the stage for a long career in entertainment journalism.

Q: The book foregrounds current events and anti-Semitism; how did you decide to structure EMET as a macro commentary rather than a traditional historical novel?
Simon describes the Truth series approach, using EMET to survey contemporary tensions and misperceptions while allowing mythic elements to illuminate broader cultural shifts, with an eye toward potential future installments and adaptations.
