Entertaining but not Work Appropriate
Edited to Add: The podcast can NEVER be too long. Three hours. Five hours. Go for it. Never end. This podcast can never be too long. I work in an environment where it is generally encouraged to have music, radio programs, or podcasts playing to help the workers endure the long shifts and so the clientele don’t heard weird silence when they happen to come round. So I tend to listen to variety of entertainment news channels and odd podcasts. I follow Patrick (H) Willems youtube channels so of course when I saw that unreasonably funny musical sketch, I was sold before I knew what I was in for. I honestly just play that announcement video periodically for a quick laugh. Obviously from an off-the-cuff, nonscripted podcast format it is not quite the polished critique or review style prevalent in Willems popular video essays—particularly the intermittent theatrics where Willems utilises filmmaking and narrative techniques within his essays themselves for more dynamic & engaging videos. As fun as it would be if he were to put the same ridiculous effort into making unique podcast experience, the informal conversations of the films—wild tangents barely relevant to the topic at hand included—are in fact entertaining and interesting. The brothers bring an enthusiasm and absurdity that I personally find a nice offset for Willems more academic, structured, and informative contributions. They create a balance of light hearted banter, ridiculously unfunny and so consequentially hilarious rants, and interesting facts and trivia that makes it a pleasure to listen to. My only qualm is that they have potty mouths and humour. Which would be fine, only the one rule for work is no swearing or highly inappropriate topics—all of which they manage into each episode with a greater zeal than any discussion on Keanu Reeves or the immediate film in question in any given episode. So of course, this is one of those podcasts I have to time just right during our downhours when it’s highly unlikely any client or supervisor is likely to be visiting. Nothing like explaining why you’re listening to three grown men discuss little girls masturbating to stuffed animals (Toy Story 4 episode) or any other bizarre turn their podcasts takes. Always an adventure. Highly recommend.

Took a long time to actually start listening, but WOW I love this. As a pretentious theatre student, hearing Sin City described as slightly brechtian made me very happy; in terms of bad puns, the limit does not exist (or should not, at least.) Highly recommend!!

I always thought that Josh Hartnett was Tommy Lee Jones - best known for his roles in The Fugitive, Men in Black, Men in Black 2, and Just Getting Started. Turns out he is an entirely different person! Highly educational podcast!
