  • A thoroughly enjoyable podcast where each episode has plenty of content. Just a heads up, though: WM vs WH covers spoilers! So, if you don't know one of the movies, you maaaaaay want to check out a different episode. Otherwise, really great content, really great host, really great guests. Totally recommend!

  • Great Discussions!

    Love the discussions Michael has with his guests, and the format is really enjoyable. Although you may be apprehensive to listen to a few episodes since they cover 3 whole movies, they're still really enjoyable. Well worth looking for that one episode where you don't mind some spoilers and digging right in!

    This is a refreshing new idea in a market awash with movie podcasts. Great idea and well executed! I'm always entertained, sometimes laughing and sometimes yelling at my pod machine when they disagree with my opinion! Ha!
