How else can I explain the comforting back-to-back bucket-list blessings of “Newcomers” seasons about Batman and Martin Scorsese? Nicole and Lauren are hilarious, have chemistry for days, and bring on the best guests/friends. A great time every week!

Been going through the backlog and I'm glad I found this now and not sooner lol, I would've been too precious about LOTR. But nowadays I just love hearing opinions done humorously on any media. Nicole and Lauren almost made me want to watch some newer Marvel content. Almost.Read full review »

Newcomers is the best podcast ever. I started watching the last waltz and after what felt like at least an hour, I paused to go to the bathroom and saw that only 15 minutes went by. I’m definitely in the “not for me” camp, which is surprising because I’m a 42 year old stoner who likes classic...Read full review »

I've been listening to these episodes on easy run days while training for a marathon and even on days when I don't feel like running, I always feel like listening to this show! They make every run a fun(ny) run!Read full review »

But Scorsese is such an unbelievably bad choice. I’ll be skipping this season without a doubt!
BlueBlood3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/24
Nicole’s taste in movies is literally the exact polar opposite of mine and I just cannot stop listening.

Scorsese! Great idea. Can’t wait. After listening : Bahahaha! Great episode. Wasn’t much of a fan of Gabrus or Long Island in general but you’ve gotta love that he gives zero fux about losing any subscribers in order to weed out incel Bickles. Mad Props, bro. 😆

I’m SO GLAD I spent the last 4 months listening to Newcomers from season 1 so that I’m caught up to listen to the Martin Scorsese season as it comes out! I love his movies but I can’t wait to hear you two complain about them 🤣
Keiffss via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/17/24
I’m thrilled that there’s a new season, but I hope it isn’t all film bro comedians telling the hosts how to react to Scorsese.
Very funny, very smart via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/24
Unless the guest completely takes over the episode, this show is almost unlistenable. The hosts, who are both extremely funny and talented elsewhere, don't put any effort into the show itself and don't pay any attention to the movies they watch. After so many seasons, it's clear they...Read full review »

Seven seasons deep and, i have yet to see a single one of these films. Will i ever? Probably not! But will i listen to lauren and nicole’s thoughts re: all these movies? Absolutely. Five stars, tens across the board, i have no notes for these two film aficionados!
SeHablaRob via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/24
One of my favorite podcasts, had me laughing out loud at work. Tuned into the first season and was hooked. Quickly binged through them all. Very, very funny! But tuned in to the Taxi Driver episode today and heard this…” would love to go back in time and help John Hinckley aim a little higher”. ...Read full review »

Absolutely love you guys 3000, and excited to listen to these Scorsese movie recaps but good God we need some lady guests or else this season will be insufferable. Love you byeeee

Listening to the this show reminds me of being a geeky teen trying to explain to some cool girls why these stupid movies are sooooo important, only to realize that the movies are stupid and that I am a dork. All of it made worse by their earnest efforts to understand what I am trying to say. I...Read full review »

Please don’t listen to this podcast unless you have dozens of hours to dedicate to a bunch of silly goofy jokes. I have always liked their individual work, but hearing their back and forth is incredible they play so well together. Not only do they have a podcast I am absolutely obsessed with,...Read full review »

I love Nicole’s and Lauren’s takes on wild movies of which they have no interest in watching 😂 Now I know for sure I don’t want to watch a Marvel movie. Think of the time savings! Thanks ladies!
Tbel798 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/24
I love Nicole and Lauren’s chemistry and their take on the movies that they watch. They are very funny and the show is a must listen… Except when John Gabris is on. He is not funny and he dominates the show. unfortunately it’s hard to get through an episode when he’s on it. Otherwise four gold...Read full review »

The guy doing the theme songs for this show is on another level
Bobbybob_bob via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 04/16/24
Nicole and Lauren are PERFECT and this show is outstanding. And I love Gabrus so I like to listen to Nicole and Gabrus discuss Fast And Furious when I’m sad, hearing them be horny for some Meatheads is like slipping into a warm comforting bath. I love Lauren. I love Gabrus. I love Nicole. I want...Read full review »

I think my partner and I have listened to every season of this funny show. Depending on the season, we will watch the movie Nicole and Lauren talk about, and sometimes we just listen, especially if we never want to see the movie-they put in the hard work for us hahaha! These two hosts work well...Read full review »
MSeeLater via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 04/09/24
I’ve listened to every episode of all seasons and have probably seen less than 5 of the movies they’ve discussed. Why? Because much like Nicole and Lauren, I’m mildly interested in the pop culture around the movies, but it never seems worth the slog of watching hours of movies I’m not that...Read full review »

Your 1 DnD episode is up there with the best of other dnd podcasts. It’s been 84 years and I still laugh. You guys should do a season on magical girl cartoons and movies! But also whatever! Nicole’s impression of Mr. Freeze was the funniest thing I have ever heard. I truly actually fell off my...Read full review »

It’s such a treat to discover there’s a new series of newcomers — like, there’s my next month, sorted!
Stauffhb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/04/24
Big fan. Just binged the whole Batman season and now I’m going to the Marvel season. I love movies, I love listening to people break down what worked/didn’t work about a movie, and love getting a plot synopsis for complicated franchises or collections of films I’ll never make the time to watch.
4linzlu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/24
This batman season was my favorite so far. It is so funny and I wish they did more batman! Stoked to find out what the next season will be but honestly doesn’t matter. I’ve seen all the batman movies, LotR, and Star Wars movies so those seasons are great but the rest of the seasons are movie...Read full review »

Found this podcast after listening to HDTGM, and fell in love! Started with the Fast Franchise, had me laughing so hard every episode. From there followed you both through the MCU timeline and now here in the Batman Movies! I’ve never listened to a podcast that made me cry from laughter....Read full review »

Nicole and Lauren have great chemistry and also have some great guests come onto the show to discuss some of the more popular movie franchises in cinema history. Some of the takes are occasionally funny and some of the insight the guests bring to the movies in question are nice. But the hosts...Read full review »

If you want to listen to people read a webpage of a movie plot, show little insight and then laugh at their own stories then this is for you. Laziest podcast ever.
Mr.Moonface via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/31/24
Can’t wait for the Scorsese season, I decided this year I was gonna watch his movies for the first time, so now we get to watch them together! Can’t wait to go on this journey with you ❤️❤️❤️

i’d just really love it if someone discretely tracked the pronunciation of “scor-cezzy” vs “scor-sayzee” in the upcoming season & tallied up the results for those of us who’ve never been confident saying either outloud ✨
JS19xx via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/31/24
I love every podcast that Nicole is in - guest appearances and hosting - she has great chemistry with every person she’s talking with not to mention Lauren is a fantastic host in her own right. I’m a huge LOTR fan and superhero geek so it is almost strange how much I love this show. Also - my...Read full review »

Do you like movies? Do you want to listen to boring boys blather for three hours or would you prefer two delightful ladies who are consistently funny in a tight hour? You, too, will tee-hee.
ftsjr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/30/24
The best podcast. I wish there were many many more episodes. Must listen.
Gdhtd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/30/24
This podcasts brings me so much joy! I’ve been a fan from the very beginning and get excited as soon as a new season is announced. The early deep dives into LotR and Star Wars are one of a kind. Amidst the humour these episodes are so full of confusion, frustration and despair — I love every...Read full review »

Have I (re)watched any of the movies? No. Do I love every second this podcast? Yes. I hope they never stop making these, they make my Tuesdays so funny.
matthewwjames via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/27/24
Lauren and Nicole continue to shape my entire personality with this show. I blame Nicole and Gabrus for convincing me I like men again, because now I’m obsessed with Dominic Torretto - a type of man that’s impossibly hard to find in real life, especially when you’re mostly into women and NBs....Read full review »

Discovered the pod for their Star Wars season; skipped the Fast and Furious one but have really liked the Batman season. They’re funny, the banter together with guest is great and the evolving ranking system is fun too.
JPfromNS via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/27/24
And I don’t need to! Love these women, love their takes, love their chemistry. Nicole & Lauren forever!
Lindsay Brennan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/24
VERY sad to see The Flash covered. Regardless of what importance it has to Batman, it’s really disappointing to see y’all covering a movie that doesn’t deserve the time of day because of the lead. Doesn’t matter who else is there, it’s not a good look. Could have done sooooo many others. Longtime...Read full review »

One of the greatest podcasts of all time. The way Nicole saying “yes queen stomp it out” when she saw Darth Vader is a defining moment in my life. The way Lauren was beyond over Star Wars and Lord of the Rings made me feel seen and heard.
imbadatmakingnames via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/24
I have such a great time listening to Lauren and Nicole’s take on these films. Such a great way to spend my day laughing along with them.
eerkomstar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/24
I love this show but I am confused — when was it recorded? They just mentioned spooky season? Halloween costume ideas? But it’s March? Are they time travelers? Do I have to wait until October for the livestream or go back to 2023? Lauren and Nicole please address this conundrum whenever my review...Read full review »

I am a new listener and find this hysterical. I am actually seeing some movies that I thought I enjoyed in a new light and might never watch them again. I started listening to the Lord of the Rings episodes; movies that I find tedious at best but my wife LOVES them. Your funny and accurate take...Read full review »

As a huge nerd who grew up with this stuff, I love hearing these two funny ladies watch geeky movies with fresh eyes ! Pointing of stuff I’ve never even thought about before, and laughing about things I never thought to make fun of. Since apple only does 5 stars I’m giving y’all 10 !!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

2 hours into BvS:DoJ(UE), I was shouting about how there was an hour left. My roommate: you know, you don’t *have* to watch it Me: yes I do!! For peak podcast enjoyment!! The things I do for love ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for all the laughs Lauren, Nicole, and friends!

Holy cow batman, these ladies are a hoot!

Absolutely delightful. What a treat,...Read full review »

Every season of newcomers is GOLD! Lord of the Rings season was a struggle, but I’m glad my ladies took one for the team so I never have to watch those movies.
