    You Must Remember this is my favorite movie podcast of all time.

    If you're looking for something fun, I love the Thrilling Adventure Hour-- it's like a parody of old time radio with different sketches. (My faves are Sparks Nevada: Marshall on Mars and Beyond Belief.) In that same vein, if you're not on the Welcome to Nightvale train yet, you really should be. The first couple of episodes have some growing pains, but overall it's one of my favorite parts of every month. Their live show is also super fun.

    Also in a shameless plug, my roommate and I do a podcast on the IMDB top 250 called Let the Right Films In.

    thank you!!! as a fair warning, our second episode was recorded the wrong mic and sounds like shit, and until like...episode 7 i think? we were recording in a coffee shop, so please excuse the background noise. we now have a very sweet and professional set up, aka a blanket fort in our living room.

    Shouldn't be a problem, I've listened to plenty of podcasts with sound issues. A lot of shows just recorrd via Skype, which can be unreliable

    Let me know when this is out. Would love to check it out. I've been watching a lot less baseball over time since there's so much of it and I have so much less time, but it was my first real sports love.

    I mean I half started watching her show because of the cute-girl doing sports novelty but stayed for her POV. Only thing I can't stand (which is the same for Bill Simmons) is how she whines about being a Boston and how it's SO tough.
