Audio commentaries are the embryonic form of podcasting, and this show looks at the art of filmmaking through the greatest of these tracks. From comedy to drama, live-action to animation, good and bad, we run the gamut of cinema in a lighthearted, hopefully enlightening fashion. It’s the only commentary-centric show that matters because it’s the only one that exists. (As far as we know.)

For our eighty-seventh episode, we’re joined once again by the great Alonso Duralde (“Maximum Film” podcast, “Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas”) to discuss the audio commentary for Paul Feig’s festive dramedy (with a twist!): 2019’s “Last Christmas”. Among the things discussed: the pro’s and con’s of making a George Michael jukebox musical, the sexist horrors of demographics, dealing with bad reviews by drinking gin on mic, a twist so literal that even trailers can’t hide it, the insidious CW streaming platform, and so much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “Die Hard” (1988), “The Holdovers” (2023), and “Eephus” (2024)
