- Great story
Terrific podcast! Intriguing story beautifully told about one man’s quest for a movie seen almost 40 years ago after an all night marathon of B-movies. The six episodes take you on a ride to uncover what and who “Student Confidential” was all about. Certainly worth a listen or two!

United Statesa month ago - Fun and engaging mini-series about a very unique filmmaker and man
Really entertaining, engaging personal journey for both the subject of this series and the creator. It’s about more than just an obscure cult film, though it’s also about that. One of my favorite listens of the past year!
Apple Podcasts5Kevin GabbaUnited Statesa month ago - Great deep dive
The Vanity Project is about the madness of becoming obsessed with something and refusing to let it go. Part detective story part love letter to lost cinema. It is a surprisingly emotional look at what it means to care too much in the best possible way.
Apple Podcasts5Ishmael1013United States2 months ago - A walk on the wild side…
Great podcast! Go on a journey from a midnight screening of an outre’ high 80’s b-movie to a thoughtful examination of the artistic compulsion (along with its requisite pound of flesh). The vanity project is a tale well told. Dig in.
Apple Podcasts5futurepilgrimUnited States2 months ago - Great investigative story into a piece of almost forgotten cinema.
Anyone who loves stories of obscure outsider cinema and the people driven to make it need to check out this incredible story!
