So well done. Frankly? I'm hooked on applying the Bechdel test to all the shows I watch (and binge watch) in addition to the movies covered in this podcast. I can't wait for additional episodes. From the title illustrations -to the intro theme song-it's start TO finish FLAWLESS! Nicely done.
Provocative in the best way, and entertaining too!

This show has really expanded my mind in many unexpected ways! I am so grateful for that. I admit the most fun to listen to episodes are when they hate the movie! More hate please!
Great, insightful and funny
