  • A good podcast

    A good podcast with some great and funny hosts and they have insightful discussions on film and the history of film, my one problem is that all the episodes from 2013-Oct of 2016 are all gone, like all the hobbit movies, the office rants and raves episode from 2013, and of course the bangers that are the now you see me movies, but I can’t listen to them anymore, 😞(this is probably just an issue with Apple Podcasts)

  • Forget it.

    I have given this podcast several chances over the tears, but no. Just listened to them discussing Final Destination: Bloodlines, hoping things might have improved. But there they are still, no change. Kent, with, without a doubt, the most irritating, droning, pathetic nasal American drone you are likely to hear, without the wit to compensate for it. That’s OK, but just don’t do a podcast. And then Brian is just above it all, too cool for school, sounding semi-comatose, like he’s stretched... more

    Listening to millennial/Gen Z dudes talk about great historical events is tedious. As many are, that they are spoiled and thus very dismissive of great feats and those who accomplish them. Of course they got political and brought MAGA into it, which is utterly tedious. You guys are talking about movies. How about just talking about movies.
