  • Great podcast!

    Fantastic podcast with two great hosts focusing on Italian genre cinema that’s not horror, westerns or gialli. If you love your cult Italian cinema, but want something different from the usual, this is the podcast you need!

  • New favorite Podcast

    This is my new favorite podcast. After listening to tons of YT channels and podcasts where all they do is crack jokes and talk about Independence Day for the 10th time; I finally found something with more depth, substance and love for filmmaking. Adrian and Rod are very knowledgeable and love all kinds of film and nerdery but are not snobby about it at all. I always come out learning something new and appreciate all the films they talk about. Thank you.
