Such a great podcast!
I have never written a podcast review before but I discovered this recently through American Hysteria (also incredible podcast) but I have been going through so many episodes and they never miss. It’s insightful, well researched, funny and overall easy to listen to. The episode on Gremlins is my favorite thus far.

I recently started listening to the podcast while I go hiking and I really enjoy the conversation and banter of Chris and Liz. Your knowledge is so great of each film you review and I’m incredibly impressed with the info. Truly wish I could drop in and be part of the discussion.
I started listening to this on the referral of an old friend. This has quickly replaced all my other movie related podcasts (unspooled and blank check) as my favorite. Keep up the amazing work!!!!
If you get your heads out your butt, I’ll stop at the politics if it’s the greatest podcast in history of podcasts because you can’t, you’re not. Stop living in fear and just do what you want to do about movies stop being scared of liberal backlash.
