And Why Not?

The Movie Podcast from The Nerds Who Haunted Themselves.


Each episode, host Stuart Mulrain is joined by a guest to talk about a movie that they love. A bit like two people in the pub, talking about the movie they just watched.


As well as the main show, we also do some specials, including themed Summer Specials, Spoiler Specials for (then) current movies and others.


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
