“Projection Booth is the show that got me into podcasting a number years ago. Mike really deserves a medal for services rendered to film and cinema. Always insightful and on point, the guys have turned me onto all sorts of films after listening to episodes…for that alone I’m eternally grateful.”

“This podcast was one of the best, if not the best, movie podcasts." In-depth" didn't even begin to describe its quailty-take the best film school conversation you've ever had with a fellow cineaste, focus on one film, go moment by moment weith that film, then top it off with...”Read full review »

“I listened to the Gumball Rally podcast, and after 30 minutes, yes 30, they still had not actually said anything that amounted to more than “we watched this movie.” My life wants its 30 minutes back.”

“My favorite movie podcast by a wide margin. Incredibly well researched by the host Mike White. Sometimes I find myself annoyed by the co-hosts, but I understand why they are there - to generate discussion. The guest interviews are always great.”

“As someone who also produces a movie podcast, I often find myself cribbing from Mike White’s notes. Every episode he puts out is just so wildly ambitious and deeply researched that it sets the bar so insanely high for the rest of us. I can’t get over the depth of knowledge brought on by various...”Read full review »

“I am very sorry but The Hunger is such a weak film to speak of contemporary vampire mythology. Jarmusch’s “Only Lovers Left Alive” is much more powerful, beautiful and impactful. And it certainly does not look like a effing video.”
