Film Fights
Film Fights is a comedy movie review podcast in which two films go head to head in a battle of genre, style, and wit. It's up to hosts Jono and Konrad to wade through each movie's shortcomings and/or glory through mucking about and radical tangents to declare a new champion for each battle. And like most competitor sports, there is drinking, yelling, and sometimes blood.
