“Bret has done his homework and is able to articulate all of the variables involved in making films, including setting up the backstory for Walter or any of his guests. Very enjoyable listening to this podcast and others. Bret beats the guest to the punch at times, for the listener, he directs the...”Read full review »

“If you’re a snowflake then this is NOT the podcast for you. Bret is real. He expresses truth. I admire his ideals and his is the voice of Gen X. Cutting through the millennial PC BS and the Boomer hypocrisy.”

“Just as when reading Pauline Kael, I frequently disagree with Mr. Ellis, but his critical monologs about the merits of Huey Lewis & Phil Collins are nothing if not compelling.

“i think podcasts are very different from “interviews" and people expect that there is going to be more time for guests to speak -or that the conversation will be 50-50…but basically pod casts are made by people who love to hear THEMSELVES speak, that’s why they don’t have a typical career...”Read full review »

“...Marc Maron did the Walter Hill interview. BEE would have been so much better! Maron knows nothing about movies. Or directing. Maron: "Your movies seem to have a certain style. Do you believe that?" Hill" "Well, Marc, it's part of job..." Yikes!”Read full review »

“Some of his takes are interesting but he's way too proud of his homosexuality and it's offputting. Just as someone who might be way too proud of the size of their penis would be. Sorry, nothing personal and I sincerely don't care that you're gay just that I, well, sincerely...”Read full review »
