“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 »

“In an increasingly crowded world of podcasts it can be difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.
This pod cast is head & shoulders above the competition as it has an exceptional pair of hosts & equally interesting guests.

“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!!!”

“Josh and Joe’s show is a joy to listen to and hear interesting and great filmmakers talk about the aspects of filmmaking they love, and the films that have inspired them. It’s laid back and always fun. Highly recommended.”
“Great guests and Dante is encyclopedic in his film knowledge, Olson needs to stop interrupting guests with his opinions. I find that rude. Let the guests finish a thought man.”

“Everyone praises Dante’s encyclopedic film knowledge but Olson is at the least wikipedic. We’re treated to a wide range of film industry guests, each revealing the surprising choices of films that inspired them. And I love that the show (mostly) avoids talking about whatever current production...”Read full review »

What happened to being able to have your own independent views and being able to get along and agree to disagree with those who hold opposing views? I used...”Read full review »
