It is the 200th episode of The Breakdown. That is a long time to be doing a podcast, and we have our great listeners to thank for its existence. We have learned a lot doing 200 episodes of a movie review podcast, and how we analyze and discuss movies has changed since our first episode. This week we wanted to give some insights and perspectives that we have garnered over our time doing this show. We will provide some advice on what it takes to make a movie review podcast, but also what we have gotten out of the experience. It is a different type of show for us, and we would really appreciate feedback on how it worked. As always if you enjoyed the show then please spread the word to other movie fans. We both want to thank you for listening to us and being the greatest listeners for 200 episodes.
Remember you can now subscribe either to The Movie Breakdown feed (a subscription link is at the top right hand of this site) or on iTunes.
NOTE: We were having major Skype issues and it somehow led to losing out on over 30 minutes of the show. We lost the segments "seek out the unknown", "champion over crush", and lost half of "don't sell an actor or filmmaker short", "focus on storytelling over universe building" and "trust your views and opinions" (misses the start of my Lone Ranger epiphany).
