Aren’t we subjected to enough dumb takes from men like this in real life? Do yourself a favor and don’t spend time you can never get back listening to these “reviews.” Even 30 seconds is an overly generous donation of your time.
These guys have great chemistry! I often find myself listening to episodes where I haven’t seen any of the movies because it’s just that entertaining. They are super knowledgeable and offer three unique perspectives on just about every aspect of the movie industry. Easily one of my favorite podcasts!
Awesome podcast. 3 great hosts. When I am listening, I feel like I’m among friends. The guys have kept me company on long car rides and hikes. I always get reminded of my love of certain favorite movies. Fun all around!!
Great podcast; fun, light, entertaining and easy to listen too. If you love to rehash movie plots, production, actor’s performance and the like then you’ll appreciate listening to this crew’s take on a broad spectrum of movies. Plugin, sit back, and enjoy the show. I know I did.
The guys have me laughing out loud and considering points of view on movies that I never would have considered without their prompting.
Whether you have seen the movie they are discussing or not this podcast will keep you entertained throughout. The chemistry of 3 best friends from the Army cannot be scripted or manufactured. These 3 keep it real.
