]]> 4507 Love Actually Join us for the premier episode of our new show CAPTIVE AUDIENCE - where we force feed the movies we love to the people we love. Captive Audience is a reaction video in podcast form. The unique format allows us to keep up with what's new, catch up on classics--new and old--we may have missed, and share films that are near and dear to our hearts. Movies can feel very solitary, especially if we're just watching Netflix at home. But at times the best parts of movies comes from sharing them with other people. It can be laughing in the theater with the rest of the audience, debating with friends, or simply asking, 'So, what did you think?' once the credits roll. This podcast gets at why we watch movies, and as cliche as it may sound, how shared experiences bring people together. To kick things off, we are making Edwin finally watch the decadent and divisive Christmas rom-com LOVE ACTUALLY. Learn more about your ad choices.
