What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’ve been a Shudder subscriber for years, and I’ve always had a hard time figuring out which movies are worth my time. Enter this podcast, which provides a great viewing guide to help get the most out of your subscription. I use this show as my main selection tool for Shudder, and I’m rarely disappointed, even if I end up not enjoying the movie. I love the banter and insights from the hosts, Michelle and JD, who come across as genuine, authentic humans as opposed to the pretentious talking heads found on some other podcasts. Guys, your honesty and realness are so appreciated, and even if I don’t always agree with everything said, I really respect the courage it takes to bare your soul the way you sometimes do. Keep up the great work, and I’ll keep listening.

Fun podcast with a diy/zine sensibility. Hosts have thoughtful insights and a fun chemistry. My favorite episodes usually involve JD attempting to reel in an intoxicated Michelle. The best!

Michelle and JD have great chemistry with one another, and they have interesting insights. They pack a lot of analysis into episodes that are 30 minutes or less.

So I like the podcast and it’s fun and I enjoy your personalities…but I thought I’d give you some support about the situation in our country and for talking about it. I see so many negative comments on peoples pages saying “they were good until they started talking about politics” and I’m here to counteract that in advance. Thank you for not ignoring things and pretending like these terrible things aren’t happening. Support from Southern California .
