PODCAST

A decade under the influence

We watch 70"s movies and do two things: 1: We give commentary along with the movie that may or may not correspond with whats going on (we"re the people that talk through the whole f***ing movie) 2: We give a short review of the film and give our observations, some context, and how it lines up with other films of the era. We really enjoy 70"s cinema and want to expose you to it as well:-)
