- Weekly dose of fun
This podcast is simply delightful. The hosts have an easy, fun rapport and each episode has a lively, thoughtful discussion of the week’s film. I am an Alonso superfan, so I follow where he goes, but Drea and Kevin are also so enjoyable. Fun way to end my work week!

United Kingdoma year ago - Heretic episode, barely talked about the movie??
I was excited to listen to the Heretic ep with Ross. But they BARELY talked about the film. They could have really leaned into Ross’s knowledge of religion. There is so much to unpack in this film… 100% disappointed. First and last episode I will ever listen to of this pod. I absolutely hate when pods dont talk about the topic they advertise.
