Spectre Shaken

Criticism is the best service they can pay to the film. Meticulously crafted, this particular episode is very rewarding, and rewards re-listening. Also simply a genuine testament to their enthusiasm for the franchise.

Brilliant

A brilliant podcast full of insight and fun, I always look forward to these podcasts coming out because you know you are guaranteed a great 2-3 hours of future listening. The latest one alone helped keep me sane on a long haul flight & was so entertaining it helped me forget my fear of flying for a few hours. Great to have you guys on the airwaves and thanks for the excellent shows.

The Sundance Kid Goes Solo

Amazing Podcast from John Jensen and the team, but it's just not quite the same without fellow gunslinger Andy Siems. Those familiar with the Hollywood Saloon will enjoy Jensen's trademark film grammar deconstruction and industry analysis, but the podcast medium defiitely favours the two-man setup; Andy being needed to drive the direction of the episodes, hitting the key points of each topic to counterpart John's essential close analysis of films and their context. I've been a fan of the Saloon since 2010 and although I've never written in to say it, it's greatly helped me in my guidance growing up as a filmmaker. So come on guys! Get Back in the saddle already and make that Kubrick Masterclass!
