Enjoy all the episodes whether I’ve seen the film in question or not.

…but I finally found a good Horror podcast. Not hacky, honest, good sound, no lisps (sorry, but it’s still a form of radio…), sound chemistry. I just hit Follow! First episode up: “The Invitation” UPDATE: Okay, it’s not a Horror podcast exclusively but it’s still good!

Couldn’t make it through ten minutes. Trying a little hard to be funny. An annoying duo.

There aren’t enough general movie podcasts with no gimmick. Just two friends with amazing chemistry talking all things movies. Five stars, check it out

A podcast that balances dissecting the “alchemy” of a film while still bringing humour and levity

This show puts me in a mood where I feel like I’m at a great dive bar and apart of those endless conversations/debates about movies you love (and some you don’t). Film Alchemist takes apart the films we love to find out the magic within but the magic of the show is all Griffey and Dandino who...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to podcasts for years and am constantly looking for ones who focus on the content that I love. The Film Alchemist is as close to perfect as I can find. All of the movies that I revere are viewed in the same way here. Most of my favorites have been covered with opinions very...Read full review »

Love the energy and knowledge brought to the podcast, conversations are great and have a natural flow to them. The intro is great too
AHoodie via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/26/22
Big fan of this one, love deep dives on specific films and these guys take a maximalist approach to that! Keep up the good work

Please do some more rare hidden gems like this one!! Thanks a lot for the great episode
Manny CR via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/22
Love the energy and fun you guys bring to movies, and The Craft episode made me laugh so hard. Yes you want the girls to win but guys miss that the girls have a toxic friends group going.

I might not always agree with their opinions but they do the research, stay on topic, and offer genuinely surprising and perceptive analysis that not only gets under the skin of the film at hand, but speaks from a well-rounded base of broader cinematic knowledge. They won’t waste your time and...Read full review »

A magical mixture of mainstream and rare films. Passionate hosts with real insight, Keep up the good work.
Nick Bryn via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/16/21
Wonderful hosts, great discussion, broad range of genres—and criminally under-appreciated. Easily my favorite film podcast!
coyotecai via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/21
The thing that makes this podcast so great is they really do dig into the movies as they are. They don’t try to rewrite the movies, or complain about their choices. They accept movies as they are and really break down what they mean. I love that. I’ve especially loved going through their insane...Read full review »

These guys review some awesome movies and give very thoughtful and funny reviews every time!! Pretty much the only movie podcast that consistently delivers both in terms of quality and quantity imo - highly recommend!
nicknack38 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/21
Griffey and Alex have really cooked up something special with the Film Alchemist podcast. From their diverse library of films to the interesting bits to the quality production to their appealing dynamic, these guys know how to podcast and chat film! Highly recommend!
JayJayRose1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/10/21
Love this podcast. Love these hosts. They have me laughing all day, everyday. Great chemistry. Always entertaining, informative, and observant. Can’t get enough of this podcast. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kryptonian Orphan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/21
Great rapport between the hosts and a stellar lineup of guest round off this fun, slightly off-kilter brilliant podcast! Big fan. A future collab would be awesome!
FilmFloggers via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/25/21
A awesome movie pod for people that think movies can be both great for pure entertainment purposes and for complex insights into the world. You can tell these guys are obsessed with analyzing films but also don’t mind just watching movie for the fun of it.
judbivs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/21
It’s could listen to another podcast... but why would I?
Ashley Lynch via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/28/21
The hosts are funny, honest, and relatable. I’ve only listened to two episodes so far and am excited to delve into the Alchemist’s archive. Whether you’re a huge movie buff or casual viewer this podcast is most definitely worth a listen.
MollyyyMartinezzz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/23/21
I love listening to these two (and their awesome guests!) talk about movies the way I love a perfect milk to cereal ratio in the morning!
SmashFizzle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/21
The hosts have great energy and chemistry. I just started listening and I’m already adding movies to my watch list
MBFF podcast via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/21
Came to this pod via YouTube after watching Chris Stuckman’s review of “The Empty Man”, and I listened to their episode discussing the film. I became absolutely enthralled by the hosts’ combined ability to talk to each other like a couple of buddies at a bar, without ignoring the profundity of...Read full review »

Got hooked on these guys with their 31 days of Halloween horror. Good stuff. Josh Lobo was a fun guest, bring him and his delightfully trashy taste back!
Robocop is rad via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/02/21
These fellas talk movies the way I like .. honest , thoughtful and just the right amount of good natured ribbing. A fantastic conversational podcast.. good for when your lonely if that makes sense, and if it does you’ll have a great time
Buck4001 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/27/21
Super fun to listen to these guys. Love how they just speak their mind, saying things we usually just think
Warrior Rod via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/20
Very entertaining film critiques and I completely agree: being the demolition man should not be a badge of honor.
BridgeStu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/20
I just starting listening to these guys and have loved every episode! Looking forward to going through their backlog and also any new episodes they come out with. A must listen!!!
Drew Zakmin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/30/20
Very entertaining. They choose great movies and always provide a revealing look into the psychology of the movie. I have really enjoyed THE GOLDEN CHILD and CHRISTINE episodes.
hfpieratt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/20
One of my fave podcasts to listen to. I am loving all the horror movies this month! Listening to you guys makes being stuck at home with my family a little more bearable :)
Wichey427 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/20
Stumbled on these guys last week and really love the shows they put on! It’s so fun and insightful.
hiwyo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/20
If you love film, check this show out. Great analysis and a bunch of laughs along the way.

These guys always provide a unique perspective while discussing theories and details that I hadn’t considered before. Consistently great choices for the movies they cover. Highly recommended!
ccruz111 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/10/20
That’s the best word I can use to describe them. They see things in so many different ways. Love their enthusiasm!!!❤️
Amera's Phone via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/10/20
If your looking for great movie podcasts that don’t take themselves too seriously but still manage to dive deeep, this is the podcast for you
No, I'm the duddddde via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/10/20
Found this searching for pods on old b-grade horror and sci fi flicks. Two really cool dudes (sometimes others fill in) talking about movies we love. They do all sorts of movies and are insightful, and more importantly, FUN. They’ve really expanded the types of films they cover and if you search...Read full review »

Highly entertaining and informative show. And often hilarious. As a bonus, one of the hosts has a particularly evil sounding laugh that gets me every time.
Benga27 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/03/20
I might be 12 to 15 years older than Josh and Alex, however, we've grown up loving a lot of the same movies. I can't say enough great things about this podcast. Keep up the great work!Read full review »

Enjoyed the trip down memory lane with one of my favorite obscure movies from the eighties. Nice tribute to one of the best directors of the eighties
Rauuuuul1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/10/20
Great movie choices!
Beanins via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/02/20
A fun podcast with two energetic and entertaining hosts! Great discoursez
Joshusawesome22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/17/20
A lot of podcasts have dips in quality, but Film Alchemist always comes through with compelling analysis and funny banter. The balance of discourse and comedy is just right. Keep it up, guys!
