  • Unapologetically himself

    And I love it! Despite being devastated by Raman eviscerating Garden State, I love his hot takes and banter with guests. Raanan is really thoughtful, so even when he says something totally crazy and out of left field about a universally loved film, you can’t hate him (completely, haha). A great movie/comedy podcast!

  • Great pod

    Great pod, I love the jokes. Raanan has a lot of sharp and nuanced opinions on a lot of the movies he discusses. Call Joe Rogan dumb all u want, he has something u will never have: intellectual humility.

    Raanan’s show is great for the nerd. Funny. Obsessive without being introspective, kinda spits on disabled people, has a lot of trouble with race, and most importantly likes Fargo.

  • No spoiler alerts for similar films!

    This is a great podcast, but I have to take away a star because they spoil other movies related to the episode’s topic film without warning. Many of those films are on my to do watchlist. So my advice is to watch every single movie you ever wanted to see before listening. To this pod.

    Ugh stop with the Trump obsession Raanan. Not every

    villain in every movie has something in common with Trump. Just amateur awful takes.
