“This show while it lasted was great. But let’s be real: it no longer exists. Yet I hear Kristen all the time on other podcasts using this as part of her byline. Don’t recommend a dead product. It just reminds me how you had a great concept and threw it away after barely a year.”

Even though I have next to no time for watching movies, listening to these recommendations makes me feel more connected to movie culture and history. Plus it’s gratifying to think of someone watching...”Read full review »

“This podcast not only gets me through my shift at work, but also gives me something to look forward to afterwards. Not only do I have a list of movies and tv shows to choose from, but I also keep a tally and take a drink every time Rafer says “good little movie.””
