You Pick The Movie
A comedian movie podcast where the guest picks the movie- and then has to defend it.
Each episode, two comedian besties, Levi White & Jessica Levin, invite another comedian to bring their favorite film, and we discuss, dissect, and certainly judge them. Expect jokes, unhinged yelling, and confidently wrong opinions.
