Generally great content, lackluster for a POC
I first heard of this podcast through an ad on another podcast. It sounded interesting: the topics seemed great and the host sounded engaging. The only issue was that the ad itself referenced talking about "Southeast Asian" representation when talking about things like Harold and Kumar and with an South Asian guest speaker. But I gave it the benefit of the doubt thinking "hey, maybe they did indeed share interesting factoids or ideas about Southeast Asian representation." So I gave the advertised episode (as well as a couple more episodes) a listen. Turns out, the podcast got South Asian and Southeast Asian confused; which wouldn't be so bad if the podcast wasn't all about progressive ideas, representation, deconstructing stigma and stereotypes, etc (all valueable and great themes), which makes me feel like the podcast falls short of what it tries to represent. Yes, this is a very very small detail to most listeners (or may be completely invisible), but it was extremely disappointing, and would be disappointing to anyone who is aware of the differences in Asian regional cultures. Perhaps it may be helpful to have a more diverse podcast team/staff to catch diverse details that otherwise slip through the cracks; otherwise, more and more of your viewers will slip through the cracks.Read full review »

Jordan is a thoughtful, knowledgeable host with a finger on the pulse of film culture, and the guests so far have been wonderful! Can’t wait to listen as this show grows!

I love this podcast! Jordan is a warm presence and so fascinating! Plus, the premise of this podcast is perfection—everyone has a movie character that they relate to, for good or for ill. A++, can’t wait for the next episode.
