The first of several, (and formerly favorite), western cinema podcast I listened to was “Westerns With Dad”. It was very entertaining, but “How the West was Cast” takes this genre to another level. It is not only entertaining but insightful, intelligent, and incisive. I enjoy its discusions on...Read full review »

This is a great podcast for intelligent discussion on westerns. I like the conversation between the hosts as well as the guests. I’ve learned a lot from the pod and added a lot of films to my watchlist If they do a full episode on My Darling Clementine I’ll add a 6th star.

The best podcast on Westerns, bar none. And one of my favorite podcasts on any subject. The mix of academic and industry perspectives makes for fascinating discussion and rewards multiple listenings. Their eclectic guests have expanded my appreciation for a genre that I thought was over, and...Read full review »

...and I'm sure it's many other "in-" words to boot. Suffice it to say if you're looking for serious (but fun!) discussions of the Western film genre, give "How the West Was 'Cast" a listen. Anyone with a love for Western movies is sure to be hooked.Read full review »

Excellent podcast, I listen often. Very informative. I particularly enjoyed the episode on western film scores, also the one about hats. I’d like to hear more on Spaghetti Westerns.

I love Westerns and, for someone who loves Westerns, there is a lot to love about How the West Was Cast. The depth, insight, creativity and pure fun with which Matthew Chernov & Andrew Patrick Nelson explore the Western movie genre only makes me want to watch more.

I grew up with Westerns. The first movie I ever saw was Hondo in 3-D and seeing the The Magnificent 7 first run in the theatres remains a treasured memory, as was seeing A Fistful of Dollars and The Wild Bunch and many others. Also, I had the benefit of the great era of TV Westerns while growing...Read full review »

There are very few podcasts centered around the Western genre, and even fewer are good. This is one of the best, and it gives you a slightly more academic, though still interesting and engaging, take than another of the better ones, Hellbent for Letterbox.

Andrew and Mathew really know their content, the love Westerns and they are delight to listen to. If you like Westerns this is a must listen for you.

Andrew and Matthew give really good analysis and opinion about Western movies in this podcast. I’ve been impressed by their depth of knowledge of films in the genre, and within the first few episodes I’ve already discovered a new favourite (The Gunfighter) and have a good few films added to my...Read full review »
