Customer Reviews
Great watch while eating at my desk
I've sampled a few daily shows that think they give the best report on what's hip, cool but none of them were ever done right until now. IFC proves that all they need is a couple of minutes of your attention to show you what's hot now, given to you in a way that's easy to digest. And what better time then while you are trying to digest your lunch. I'll def be tuning in for this one.
Lovin' the Lunchbox!
This is a great guide to what's cool and new not only on IFC and IFC.com but all around the Indie world including politics, film, and music. The hosts are very informative and funny, talk to some great guests, and have that cool, insiders viewpoint we've come to expect from IFC. Looking forward to more great episodes down the road!
