La Manifesta ,

A film journey in the best company

I admired Mark Jordan Legan and Phoeff Sutton individually for their work, but I had no idea that they were best friends until they started this podcast. It's an absolute joy to listen to them discuss movies, and also a master class in film history. One of the smartest, most entertaining podcasts you'll ever come across.
