Great interviews, with some minor drawbacks
This podcast is a fantastic way to hear some of the most exciting filmmakers out there discuss their process in a practical nuts-and-bolts approach that doesn’t get bogged down with armchair analysis. I know I don’t need to hear another film critic sound off with their review of a new film (what credentials do you actually need to become a film critic these days?) but I DO need to hear the filmmakers themselves, which is why I love this podcast. The host asks thoughtful and informed questions most of the time and seems to have a healthy knowledge of what it takes to make a film, but can be prone to spending a little too much time on his own opinions (again, let’s just hear from the filmmakers). Lastly, the recording quality is not great. For a filmmaking podcast you think they could get a decent sound person or at least a good podcasting setup. Despite these drawbacks, it is still one of the better filmmaking pods I’ve found out there.

Great insights from thoughtful questions to a diverse range of guests. One highlight was the episode with Reed Morano, Director, Producer —and sometime camera operator!— of Handmaid’s Tale. Many others too. Enjoyable and educational listening.
