  • Like listening in on your own movie buddies

    I’ve been listening to this podcast for close to 10 years… And I never miss an episode… I love listening to Brian and Zaki hash it out with what they’ve been watching on the small and big screens alike. It’s been said by a number of viewers, but it’s absolutely true that listening to this podcast is like listening in a group of your own friends… I really do never miss an episode!
