Movie Podcast Weekly Ep. 330: Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) and Midsommar (2019) and The Dead Don’t Die (2019) and Jason’s Big Birthday Bash 2019

Movie Podcast Weekly

It’s just like old times again… Welcome to Movie Podcast Weekly, Episode 330. You might think you’re listening to a “Lost Episode,” but this is semi-current release where Jason (aka Jay of the Dead) of Considering the Cinema and Horror Movie Weekly returns to serve as Guest Host in order to bring you Jason’s Big Birthday Bash 2019! Karl is absent, but Andy, Ryan and William also appear. These knuckleheads bring you Feature Reviews of Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) and Midsommar (2019) and The Dead Don’t Die (2019). As far as MPW episodes go, this show has most elements of a “classic MPW show,” except there’s no sleeping and no Karl. Otherwise, it’s still a must-listen. Join us!

If you’re new to our show… Movie Podcast Weekly typically features three hosts — Andy, Karl and Geek Cast Ry — along with frequent guests. We give you our verdicts on at least one new movie release from the current year that’s currently playing in theaters, as well as several mini reviews of whatever we’ve been watching lately. New episodes release every single week!
