- I love the pod, hated the Dazed & Confused ep
I love the podcast but I have to comment on the D&C episode. It’s genuinely puzzling how every panelist - aside from Josh who doesn’t quite leap to defense - completely misreads this film.

Apple Podcasts2Ragman300United States2 months ago Well ive now heard every episode and it's become apparent that Josh chose his co-host as his " Oh no he didn't just say that guy ". Just scattershot sh**s on every movie they discuss with no real opinion other than " i was bored " i started googling names and they were all very interesting". Come on man. Also I love his comment about wishing George Clooney wouldn't be political. The man who pretty much single handedly got the ICC to file criminal charges against a sitting Israeli prime minister
