The nasal VO announcer will pick at your brain over time. This podcast is just an opportunity for the host to tell some decades-old, quasi relevant story about his proximity to the industry, and how a trailer made waves over 20 years ago. And penis enlargement ads should tell you what this host...Read full review »

Host sometimes seems uninterested in what the guest is talking about.

I get it. This is a business. But you can tell that the business is more important than the experience. You will be inundated with all sorts of stuff you don’t need. And their recent choice of guest makes me wonder why I bothered listening at all. Kevin Sorbo? Seriously? Lol.

Good listen!

The topics are good, but it often sounds like interviews are being done from a closet in a basement. Its hard to hear.
2cargirl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/23
I really do understand that ads are how they make their revenue, but the sheer amount of ads in one episode is rough. Especially when they are repeating the same ads over and over. Also, would also love if they had more women, gender expansive, and people of color on. That aside, the host is...Read full review »

This podcast, the host, it’s content and guests are phenomenal. But the commercials are absolutely maddening. I’d rather pay a subscription than endure these commercials.

Simple. Read the title. The resources this provides are priceless. The host is brilliant and carries the show well. The commercials ruin the flow of the show. Makes it hard to listen to a whole show.
Gpm2011 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/22
Has the potential to be a really fun and informative show but right now it plays like a series of ads broken up by the occasional segments of interview.

This has been a wealth of knowledge for me as a new screenwriter, and I’m trying incorporate everything I can. I started at the beginning, and I’m 44 episodes in after 2 weeks. It is a journey, and the all the guests, insider info, film, workshop, and book recommendations are there to guide me.
Joshm77 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/22
It would be 4 stars if not for the commercials. Best explanation would be he insists on paying all his guests and he does it by playing constant ads. If he gets people to come on for free but still has these many ads… not cool.
ChaunceyDos via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/06/22
I’m not sure if Alex just repeats himself a lot of if he repost content, but it feels repetitive. Still some great info but it feels like it’s the same as his other shows.
Mister Britt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/10/22
Alex - you are RB are a great comedy team in this episode and the whole talk about pitching, developing, packaging, and shopping a project to streaming platforms was seriously invaluable. You are THE best podcast on screenwriting and the biz that’s out there today hands down and hopefully all...Read full review »

I’m filmmaker who went through the rigors of writing, financing, producing, and trying to sell my film. I can honestly say the information on here is gold!
HyperinNY via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/22
Early on in this podcast, Alex put together a good quality show about the art and technique of screenwriting which was always worth a listen. However, in the past year it has transformed into the a masterclass on screenwriting and filmmaking. With several amazing guests who have made some famous...Read full review »

Alex has taken his amazing wit, energy, charm and obvious love for film from his wildly successful Indie Film Hustle podcast and transformed it into a love letter to screenwriters everywhere with this awesome podcast.

I absolutely loved the variety of guests that appeared on this podcast and they all had great insights into the behind-the-scenes world of the film industry. That said, the host got too repetitive always talking about his adoration for Tarantino and Marvel Studios. I stopped listening because it...Read full review »

Update 10/28/21 [Alex, you did it again. You talked over Kelly Edwards the entire podcast. Your listeners are coming here to learn from her. Why can’t you ask her simple questions and then just shut up and sit back and listen? We all know how you feel about Batman and Shawshank and Sopranos. Why...Read full review »

Alex shut up my man , let your guest finish their thoughts . I don’t think he’ll ever get the hint . how he gets such great guest I’ll never know . You can tell some of his guest are wondering how they ended up on this podcast . What a waste .

Any upcoming filmmakers should consider this and all of Alex’s podcasts to be mandatory. It’s that simple and that important.

I just started listening to this podcast and am thoroughly enjoying it! I do really enjoy the quality of guests and intriguing topics.
Schmagurty via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/15/21
Cool guests but the interviewer is utter trash. Has no idea what he’s talking about. Laughs at everything. Panders to every guest and adds absolutely nothing. Talks over them. Just a hack who never made it in Hollywood and for some reason has the ability to get guests. You also hear him breathing...Read full review »

I listened to episode 120 and automatically knew this podcasts would be a fav!

I realized important it is to capture “sight and...Read full review »

A must listen to episode. New listener. Alex’s discussion with Paul was exceptional. Think of a semester class easily cut down this. Alex lets Paul share these smart lessons of experience to the new and not so new screenwriter. I listened and knew I wanted to go back and take some notes. This...Read full review »

Wide spectrum view of the industry and insightful and penetrating interviews with the ‘story tellers’
pflau105 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/12/21
Just listened to my first episode with Paul Chitlik. Great takeaways for rewrites. Also loved Alex’s tip on writing 3 screenplays and wait until you’re finished with the third before you start revising the first one. The key is you’ll be a better writer by that time. Well done. 👏

This screenwriting podcast has an impressive back catalogue of over 100 episodes, many of which have in-depth interview with great screenwriters, script consultants and authors. Well worth the time if you enjoy the craft of screenwriting

He has great guests on. But you could wasted doing a drinking game where you took a shot every time he nerds out on The Dark Knight, Tarantino, or Marvel Movies. Very “film bro” taste, and he’ll often forcibly guide his guests to just join him in heaping praise on Nolan or Tarantino, and large...Read full review »

jumps the shark. Howsabout you talk writing, not politics. I don't need to be lectured by hypocritical libtards. Tell your guests to save it. I've lived and worked amongst these people, frauds. Sad really, there's potential here... moving on.Read full review »

I’ve decided to listen to two episodes a day during my commute. One episode was really informative. Down to earth. Educational from professionals.

Meh
A bit self indulgent... and lackluster

Alex is excellent.

IFH is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Real world truths in a friendly, educational, entertaining & inspiring package. Alex comes from a sincere place of service to all who have the bug & live with the dream! Career & life changing!
Silverback Storyteller via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/03/20
Mr. Host needs to ask more relevant questions FOR the listener. By not asking questions, his podcast session gets off track easily. The listener has nothing to take from the conversation.
Alibaba Potato via Apple Podcasts · Malaysia · 02/20/20
IMHO: This podcast will be a 5 when the hosts learns that interviewing your guests is to ask pertinent questions and then stop talking and let them speak.
farthoy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/20
So much valuable information for anyone in the business or anyone looking to get into the business. Great advice from some heavy hitters in the industry, I’m so glad I found this pod.

The most helpful thing you could add to you utility belt when it comes to screenwriting!!! Halfway through the first episode and I was hooked. Great guests that bring tons of wisdom and give you straight to the point information and advice.
Welci.boble via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/28/19
Love it and I hope Alex will get to have Sonda Rhimes or Aaron Sorkins on the show. And I wish Alex would take questions from his viewers so that he can later ask them to his guests for us.
