“I’ve been enjoying this pod for some time. Joe Dante offers terrific insight and knowledge. Josh Olson keeps things moving but occasionally can bring things to a halt with I’ll considered asides that fall flat. Nonetheless it’s a ton of great content that’s undermined by the production’s apparent...”Read full review »

“One of the hosts sounds like he’s in a submarine. Whole sentences are unintelligible, even on headphones.
Great hosts though.”

“Hearing Andra Whipple complain about standing in the sun for too long while picketing is absolutely disgusting. Hey Andra, you know who has to work 14hr days in the same hot sun? Every crew member that ever worked on a film shoot for their ENTIRE LIVES. To hear this person complain about the...”Read full review »

“Josh need to stop talking and fumphering and let the guests talk. A terrible broadcaster and a big douche. Please ask Joe to move 100 yards closer to the microphone.”

“I love this show (working my way through all of the episodes) and was just listening to the Josh Olson’s comment about the fan asking Dan Clowes about how he feels making fun of his own fans in his comics and Dan replies, “How does that make YOU feel?”. I was that fan at the San Diego Comic Con...”Read full review »

This pod cast is head & shoulders above the competition as it has an exceptional pair of hosts & equally interesting guests.
If you’re a casual movie watcher or Uber geek you’ll be...”Read full review »

“I’ve listened to every episode, some of them twice. Each time, it’s like hanging with your coolest, most well-versed film pals, Josh and Joe, and chatting it up for an hour or so. It’s easily my favourite podcast ever and has helped pass many hours of driving through NZ back country.”

“I tried to listen to an episode and lasted about fifteen minutes. The insufferable waffling of one of the hosts (Josh Olson) does not inspire me to listen to any more. Unbearable.”

“If the guest is someone interesting or at the very least charismatic (William Friedkin or Alan Arkush) then the episode will be really good.
If the guest is someone really boring, or a not awesome filmmaker then I usually skip.
Audio varies episode to episode (we need to return to a time when...”Read full review »

“Josh Olsen has a great voice and takes on movie opinions in the perfect way- if he disagrees it’s polite or jokingly. He understands that ultimately this stuff doesn’t matter. He always has some great take on the films.
Despite being into film I haven’t seen much of Dante’s work- but his gently...”Read full review »

“I cannot follow the episodes with Bobcat they’re way too “inside” I have no idea what anyone is talking about especially him as he mumbles. Also what’s up with all the self promotion for their new movie which I can’t watch. This podcast is supposed to be diametrically opposed to that. Thumbs down!!!”
