“Why are we giving airtime to producer Craig? Uninformed, not knowledgeable. Good for him for falling into an opportunity, but I would prefer to hear information from someone who knows what they are talking about.”

“I work on the business side of the industry and every week I look forward to this pod’s take on the hottest issues of the day. The guest list is well curated and I’ve gotten several colleagues to start listening as well. Unlike some other reviewers I don’t mind Matt’s style; he challenges his...”Read full review »

“In regards to your music industry peaked episode. The top time was that Brittney and n sync time as far as real sales. Things have changed due to the internet but there’s one thing you guys don’t know. Spotify’s numbers are completely fake and Sabrina Carpenter is not a fraction as popular as...”Read full review »

“What an awesome amount of Hollywood news, I devour it on the release dates. It’s great to have different perspectives with Lucas Shaw, Producer Craig and insider guests (recent one, Leslie Goldberg talks like me & my friends). My only worry is that Matt will realize what a gem this is and put...”Read full review »

“Why does Matt talk to all guests like they are stupid? He clearly only thinks his own takes are worth the time, disagreeing just to disagree. And is just waiting for the guest to stop talking so he can loudly. He has no respect for them. He also always leaves out the fact that we are in a...”Read full review »

However, I have officially stopped listening after guest tried to converse and Matt stopped him saying “please save your questions until the end”. This...”Read full review »

“I left LA in 2019 and The Town makes me feel like I never left. Matt is a king and Lucas is his Monday queen! Shout out to producer Craig too. Thanks for me foreshadowing the Roku disaster so I could sell those stocks too!”

“The show is okay however, it would be better if Matt did not seem like he thought he was the smartest person in the world or sucked up to his guests.
Also, some of the analogies leave a lot to be desired.”

“Matt’s interview with Kelly Campbell, President of Peacock, was hard to listen to. She’s the PRESIDENT of Peacock! Stop talking to her like she’s an intern. “This is probably above your pay grade…” What a condescending thing to say to someone that took time to be a guest on your mediocre podcast....”Read full review »

“And I’m happy for it! For well over a year I’ve listened to every episode.
Business news is just gossip (complimentary). Matt has a great style and incomparable access. Lucas Shaw adds wonderful detail on Mondays with excellent reporting, and I appreciate when he pushes back. Craig seems like a gem!”

“this guy is the least engaging listen in the genre of hollywood-reporters-podcasting. it’s fine but he actually gets so much wrong on the film side of the entertainment industry and then just moves on and never reconciles with how wrong he so often is. it’s weird. those pods are still up! get...”Read full review »

“The problem with this podcast is that Mr. Belloni invites people to discuss interesting topics but he doesn’t let them talk. Eventually he does all the talking because apparently his opinion is the one that counts. That makes for a really boring podcast.”

“MB is the ultimate yada, yada when his guest challenges a flippant stance.
Topics and guest are great, what he discusses is great. He’s just a jerk 40% of the time.
Producer Craig rocks!”

“Talk about Hollywood namedropper, shill for big Hollywood execs like David Laslav so he remains on their Christmas Card list. Supporter of Disney and the big wig CEOs while the writers and actors striked. Does that not say it all? Ugh”

“It seems like every episode with certain guests has barking dogs in the background. The host seems totally fine with it. I have to skip ahead through the dog barking because it’s unlistenable and miss those parts. Otherwise, the opinions are usually fine.”
