What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I really wanted to investigate about the phrase “bad medicine” in The Searchers. In many Native American cultures, “medicine” can mean much more than a physical remedy—it can refer to spiritual power, energy, or the unseen forces connected to nature. So when someone talks about “good medicine” or “bad medicine,” there’s a much deeper meaning behind it. In the context of the movie, “bad medicine” feels like a warning. They’re moving deeper into Chief Scar’s territory, a place that is unfamiliar, hostile, and dangerous for the white men entering it. It almost feels like the land itself is telling them they’ve crossed into a place where the normal rules no longer apply. I think that phrase also adds to the darker atmosphere of the film. It’s not just that they’re entering dangerous territory—they’re entering a place filled with fear, revenge, and consequences from everything that has happened before. That makes “bad medicine” a pretty powerful way of describing what they’re walking into.

Truly one of the best movie review podcasts out there! The deep dive on Scarface is University level exploration/ analysis! Love all the insider-baseball knowledge they drop throughout a program. Bravo gentlemen, keep up the good work!!

In general, I like the movies these guys watch and their conversations about them. Classic films and plenty of popular films. I think they have a good and entertaining balance of behind-the-scenes, moviemaking insight, and personal experience reflection on these movies. However, I just noticed how male-centric their movie choices and conversations are. Very noticeable that they haven’t yet done a Diane Keaton tribute after her passing and she was a giant in the industry. I mean c’mon- had a George Foreman tribute show but not Diane Keaton?!
