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.)

This is how we win. For our seventy-second episode, we’re joined once again by Phillip Iscove (“Sleepy Hollow”, “Podcast Like It’s the 2000s”) for a discussion of the commentary for the anxiety-inducing Safdie Brothers follow-up to their masterpiece “Good Time”: 2019’s “Uncut Gems”. We discuss the contemporary themes relating to Jewish identity, phenomenal performances from non-acting athletes, audiences rooting for a character who refuses to make the right decisions, verisimilitude in casting, how brothers can argue over something as trivial as a commentary, and so much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “Rushmore” (1998), “The Royal Tenenbaums” (2001), and “The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou” (2004)
