  • So glad I found this one -- it gave me so many more movies to hunt for. The hosts are delightful. My two favorite episodes so far have been Pearl and The Wolf House -- listening to them after seeing both of these movies added layers of enjoyment and insight to the films. Loved the episode on Poison for the Fairies too!!
