Great podcast! Very interesting back and forth between two very knowledgeable guys, who can bring in their opinions without lecturing their audience on how they should feel about a movie. Though political and religious viewpoints of the filmmakers are sometimes discussed, I never felt a lack of respect for differing worldviews. Very even-handed and fair. We need more of this type of discourse beyond discussion about film. That said, this is a fun and involving show!
