Our Best Podcasts of 2024
Stoney reviews some of his favorite movie podcasts that the Nashville Movie Dispatch team put out this year.
If you’re new to Nashville Movie Dispatch and might’ve missed some of the podcasts we’ve done along the way, I figured I’d take a moment to look back at the year that was and weigh in with what I think our best shows of the year have been. These are organized alphabetically by movie. Enjoy catching up on some of my favorite shows from 2024.
Our Best Podcasts of 2024
Civil War - Apple Podcasts - An absolute force of a movie, Civil War is one of those harrowing and jarring cinematic experiences that just sticks with you long after you’ve seen it. Brandon and I also took this opportunity to discuss the filmography of Kiersten Dunst.
Dune: Part Two - Apple Podcasts - It’s always a good time when we can get the EIC of 615 Film and the President of the Music City Film Critics Association, Sean Atkins, in the lab to talk movies. He joined Brandon on this episode to really sink their teeth into one of the biggest movies of the year.
Joker: Folie á Deux - Apple Podcasts - Far from my favorite movie of the year, but it was the type of movie that was interesting to discuss because we all just kind of had to sit there and unpack what the fuck we’d just witnessed.
Lost In Translation - Apple Podcasts - I’d say at this point, it’s probably still my favorite movie that I’ve seen for the first time this year. And, man…I love to talk about a movie that makes me feel the way this one did.
Love Actually - Apple Podcasts - Maybe there’s a bit of recency bias here, but watching Love Actually for the first time during the holidays just felt right. Stick around for us constantly singing, “I feel it in my fingers…”
Madame Web - Apple Podcasts - Sometimes, it’s just fun to talk about shitty movies! I don’t know why that’s hard for some people to understand. Maybe they’re just not haters the way that I am. It was definitely one of the most-memed movies of the year and we had our fun with it.
Monster House - Apple Podcasts - I had been dying to talk about this movie since the inception of the Movie Review Rewind Podcast. This is one of my all-time favorites in the Spooky Season rotation, and it was awesome to dig into just how the stars aligned for this movie to be made.
Mystic River - Apple Podcasts - The end of the year always messes with my concept of time, but holy shit, has it really been nearly a year since we kicked off the new season of Drinking With… with a look at one of the most bleak movies of the last 21 years?
Something’s Gotta Give - Apple Podcasts - Two heavyweights of the industry dialing up the chemistry and delivering an awesome result.
When Harry Met Sally… - Apple Podcasts - It belongs among the greatest rom-coms of all time, and it’s impressive how well the movie has held up after all these years. This episode is worth listening to if for no other reason than Brandon and me trying to impersonate the female orgasm.
