  • Salt (with Ira Madison III)

    Salt (with Ira Madison III)
    Oct 1 2026
    Amy welcomes Ira Madison III to go undercover with Salt, the 2010 spy thriller that gave Angelina Jolie a chance to go full action hero. They dig into the movie’s wild development, from a Tom Cruise vehicle about “Edwin A. Salt” to Jolie’s gender-swapped Evelyn Salt, and celebrate the practical stunts, shifting loyalties, and increasingly bonkers twists that make the movie such a fun ride.

  • Almost Famous (with Alan Sepinwall)

    Almost Famous (with Alan Sepinwall)
    Sep 24 2026
    With Paul away, Amy hits the road with TV critic and former Rolling Stone writer Alan Sepinwall to revisit Cameron Crowe’s Almost Famous, the coming-of-age rock movie about a teenage journalist, a very complicated band, and the blurry line between access and honesty. They dig into Crowe’s autobiographical story, the film’s legendary cast, and its many musical highs, while exploring what it means to be a critic when you’re also a fan. Along the way, Amy and Alan debate Lester Bangs’ advice, the power critics have to shape what becomes canon, and why Almost Famous remains one of the great movies about falling in love with music.

  • Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (with Julie Klausner)

    Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (with Julie Klausner)
    Sep 17 2026
    While Paul is away, Amy welcomes comedian and writer Julie Klausner to dive into Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, Russ Meyer’s gloriously outrageous collision of sex, drugs, rock and roll, and barely contained chaos. Originally conceived as a sequel to Valley of the Dolls, the film evolved into something far stranger, dropping three aspiring stars into a debaucherous version of Los Angeles. Amy and Julie dig into Roger Ebert’s unlikely screenwriting career, Jacqueline Susann’s $10 million lawsuit, and whether there’s anything remotely feminist underneath all that sexploitation.

I love listening to Paul and Amy really dig into movies. I recently discovered the podcast and am now about 50 episodes in. I was truly excited that they continued beyond the AFI 100 and can't wait to see how the format changes. They are somewhat pedantic at times and get on their soapboxes but, honestly, that's what I come for. A discussion with friends about movies, not something sterile and bland. I want crazy opinions and weird thoughts and tangents connecting to other movies. Even the silly suppositions and rumors and conspiracy theories about old Hollywood.

Paul and Amy break it down

Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
Overly long, very slow starts so expect to skip a bunch before they actually get to talking about the films. Tried a few, last one I had to skip about 17 minutes before they really talked about the film.

Expected analysis, break downs, or something other than them just a lot of them saying "oh I liked this part".

Their "takes" come off as very amateurish which is weird because I know they know a lot about film. It's just weird when they say something that makes you wonder if they even saw the film.

Total meh.
