  • THE BEST MOVIE PODCAST EVER!!!!

    If you are a cinephile, enjoy games, and LOVE hearing stories about your favorite films and unknown gems, THIS IS YOUR PODCAST!! Co-Hosts Clay and Ryan gather film experts and movie makers from around the world to collaborate on building a best of list from the bottom up. There are vetos, there are tough debates, but there’s A LOT of fun along the way. It’s an amusement ride that you don’t want to end.

  • Love this show!

    One of my favorite podcasts. Clay and Ryan are the best. I love the variety of GMs and topics. I always come away with at least one new movie on my watchlist.

  • Long Form Magic

    Maybe the idea of 3-5+ hour long episodes scares you. Don’t be deterred. Scroll through the episode titles and pick a draft that appeals to you. It’s a bunch of smart film enthusiasts/experts talking eloquently and passionately about movies. It never gets old. Screen Drafts fixes all your long drive, boring housework problems. You’ll start to wonder why the hosts of your other favorite podcasts wimp out at 45 minutes or whatever.

  • Spends over half of every podcast talking about the concept of the ‘draft’ ad nauseum

    The limited movie discussion content good - but after you’ve listened to about three episodes the frustration of them focusing so much on what should just be the minor rules of the game becomes too much to bear!
