  • Good show, lots of filler

    Good show, great guests, great concept, great topics. Be prepared: they never start discussing the actual topic until 25-30 minutes into the show on average.

  • Great listen

    It’s always fun to listen to creators and experts nerd out on what they are passionate about. Even though I wasn’t familiar with some of the books, authors and films that were discussed, it made me want to check them out.

    VERY professional and entertaining. I’ll follow and await the “horrific” ins-and-outs of my fave… “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”! Thanks!
