Banterly
Banterly is a fun, conversational-style podcast that dissects contemporary films and TV shows to explore the many exciting, thought-provoking….and sometimes problematic elements of pop culture that many of us binge on a daily basis. Featuring two Gen Z co-hosts, this podcast is not just reviewing your next movie or TV show recommendation. We’re diving into them, discussing their nuances, and grappling with the trends of present-day media—all through a comedic lens.
