Here's a quick hit from the loft. These are movies that always seemed to be on the cable box between 1980-1984. And I got caught up in them every time. Hypnotic. It was like  the O.G. doomscroll, but with a great return.

  • Podcast of the year!!

    No wonder the Movie Loft podcast won Podcast of the year 6 times in a row!!! (I just made that up), these Dooods are awesome and genuinely having a good time talking about stuff we all love and we’re a part of.

    I really feel like I’m in the Loft with them even when I’m not. Solid movies, solid reviews, and solid characters that force you to pay attention to every word.

    I can’t get enough and recommend to everyone!

  • Love the Vibes of this Show

    I can picture the barn loft, and somehow, it makes for a cozier listen!! I love that this show’s mission is to weave together a documentation of your formative years! Such a cool way to do it, through the lens of movies. Movies and songs, to me, are like stickers that catch the memories of the time period you saw or heard them in, and this show proves that! Loved the part about the parachute pants btw 😂 Always down to support another Boston pod! Five Stars, and Be Kind, Remind! 😀

  • Nostalgia overload

    Full disclosure my favorite thing in the world is having someone bring up something I completely forgot. That’s what this podcast does for me, be it a top 5 or 10’ list a specific scene from a film or something newsworthy from a specific era. The guys voices are soothing and no one is talking over one another. Great stories with easy to imagine visuals, big fan !!
