- Way to Ruin a Good Thing
This podcast used to be so intriguing and done so well. Now it’s just another person with a platform deciding their political voice and needs to be heard and their agenda executed. As with most entertainment today, it’s no longer entertaining, it’s an opportunity to talk about things that have no place in “entertainment” in the first place . Newsflash not everything needs to be politicized - maybe Karina needs to get out of Hollyweird for a while. It’s sad…. Way to stoke the fire Karina, glad li... more

I am a long time listener of YMRT and I am consistently impressed. Karina’s extensive research and editing is incredibly captivating. I find my pausing every episode - multiple times - to google everything she is talking about. Please keep going, Karina! I have watched most movies you have mentioned or recommended and it is so much fun to go back in time.
For the haters of the narration: get over it! It’s all part of the magic ✨

Canada23 days ago - Great work YMRT Team 💖🎥🍿
This podcast is amazing. It’s well researched, thought provoking, entertaining and often tells the stories of forgotten or unsung contributors to the film industry. I’ve been a listener for a long time and I appreciate the perspectives given. The commentary is always insightful and informative. But I’m especially grateful for the consideration this podcast takes to be inclusive and to amplify the experiences and contributions made throughout Hollywood’s history by marginalized communities
Apple Podcasts5RahRahInTheSkyWDiamondsUnited Statesa month ago - Stop with the fake accent
I love this podcast. Don’t get me wrong. I have discovered many films actors and directors and I really value her commentary. However, and this is a BIG ‘however’ … The fake accents are so cringeworthy that I stopped listening to several of them. They are distracting, insulting, and sometimes downright wrong. Why you think that doing pathetic Alfred Hitchcock impersonation or god-awful French accent for every “on every French film director adds to the listeners enjoyment is so beyond me. They’re... more
Apple Podcasts4Jenny McPikeUnited Statesa month ago - Listening tip
I’ve listened to season 15 twice - that’s that good. Second time around I listened at 1.2x speed and it changed my experience for the better. Longworth is very good at her job but her delivery/voice acting might not be for everyone. Adjusting the speed was a game changer. Didn’t diminish the other voices in the show and kept it at a pace closer to the other podcasts we all know and love.
