This Podcast is the Left Titty!
This show is heaps of fun. It’s one of those shows that the more you listen to it the more rewarding it is, and you get to a point where you almost feel like you could be friends with all the hosts. All of the hosts are great and each have a very specific style of humor and personality. Max, the showrunner, will run through the plot of a film while all the cohosts comment on the different plot points. He will include tons of interesting and hilarious factoids and observations about the film while doing so. Tim is by far the funniest, he has such a dark and dry sense of humor peppered with the perfect amount of self deprecation. John’s random and obscene interjections are very frequent, and while a lot miss, the ones that hit are hilarious (ie the title of this review and “the barrel”). Pike Mrebble does some fantastic impersonations and brings a level intellectuality to the show, that probably doesn’t belong, but is much appreciated. He’s also the voice of reason in many a case when the hosts cross the line into offensive territory. Bill is great as his hot temper is often spoken of, but never really felt through his presence. It’s also good as he is a great defender of the Marvel films so I have a feeling of solidarity when he’s on the show. He also has this Luddite nature to himself that he embraces in hysterical fashion. The only host I’m on the fence with is Paco. Sometimes Paco is hilarious, other times, he’s extremely offensive and insensitive. I get the sense that he’s a good dude, just a bit ignorant on being empathetic towards people that aren’t white males... The show is fantastic, and while they tend to tear apart movies I love I still listen to it because I find their banter really funny. I am by no means a snowflake, but I should say that there should be a fair trigger warning for those that are sensitive to “South Park-esque” humor, especially episodes with Paco in them. Also if they are covering a movie you like, just take warning that there’s a good chance they’ll tear it apart. These guys are not woke, but they still make great jokes that bring light to the social issues of our present day. They just do so in the most offensive way possible.

So...I have been listening to this podcast for about 4 days now. I. Cant. Stop. I have been on disability for about 5 years now (I am 48) and I spend a lot of time at home (since I can't drive) and I have listened to a lot of Podcasts! This is by far my favorite of all time.

It’s nice to listen to a movie podcast where the guys aren’t haters or fan boys. Good blend of adding humor to bad or uncomfortable movie scenes while also highlighting the good parts or stuff I didn’t even notice when I watched the movie myself. Highly recommended for any movie fan that needs...Read full review »

These dudes are hilarious. I love the raunchy and funny banter. Great friends reviewing movies. They manage to stay on point and provide trivia and movie info all while poking fun at each other and having fun hangin out. This is a great movie pod!
