  • Disappointing. Yet another fanboy postcast

    The host seems knowledgeable and has actually seen the movie unlike other postcasters! Unfortunately, he is most comfortable talking about the actors and the backstage gossip. I listened to several episodes and there was no hint of themes or subtext.
