  • Love it!

    I love podstruck! I listen to this everyday while I work and I find myself chuckling out loud! I think one of the best parts about this podcast is that Elena and Chelsea disagree sometimes because that’s real, and I’m always on a different side depending on the movie. I also love that I’ve seen most of these movies but sometimes am introduced to new ones or have a new desire to rewatch others. Overall so fun and a great, easy listen!

    I started listening to after it was recommended by the algorithm. I am

    Glad it did. I wish they would dive into the screwball comedies, e.g. “Bringing up Baby”, “The Thin Man”, “My Girl Friday”, etc.

  • Chemistry check: off the charts!

    I absolutely love Podstruck! It is so fun to walk through all my favorite recent and back-in-the-day romcoms. But more importantly, the friendship chemistry between Elena and Chelsea is off the charts amazing. I love that they have an opposites attract vibe—Elena has kind of a worldly LA background while Chelsea brings the midwestern charm (and picky eating!). They have unique perspectives and disagree about a lot of aspects of movies, but they do it in a feisty, supportive, and charming way. It... more
