Parental Advisory Movie Podcast is a running conversation between Jeff and Patrick, two dads who share a love of movies. The organizing idea comes from parenthood itself: some films are family outings, others are seen without the kids, and both get the same attention. The episode titles show how wide that net is. Goat and Avatar: Fire and Ash sit in the same feed as Marty Supreme, The Bride!, Sentimental Value and Project Hail Mary. The movies wait their turn, though. Conversations open on the week at home, such as Grayson's first two games for her elementary school soccer team, one won and one lost, or a winter storm that brought down trees and knocked out power. Holiday greetings turn up as well, from a happy St. Patrick's Day Eve to a belated birthday wish at the new year. Once the films arrive, the hosts get thorough. They read out release dates, runtimes, directors and writers, and they recap setups at length, such as the Prohibition-era Chicago of The Bride! and its lonely Frank in search of a companion. Comparison does a lot of the work. A zombie picture gets placed between The Walking Dead, 28 Days Later and the fast runners of World War Z. Goat is described as Zootopia narrowed down to basketball, with a trailer that plays like Space Jam with animals, which prompts the reminder that Space Jam never went to space either. Project Hail Mary is set beside Gravity, Interstellar and The Martian, the last sharing its author, which was about all one host knew walking in. The verdicts are plain-spoken. Project Hail Mary was called a great movie, while Marty Supreme was judged entertaining, with a good central performance, but not obviously worth all the hype. Awards season comes up in more than one conversation. One episode was recorded while the SAG-AFTRA Awards were still airing, and another works through the Best Actor nominees and guesses who will take it. Upcoming films get their turn too, with one host going through a stack of trailers he had jotted down as he saw them, including an upcoming Netflix film about an adrenaline junkie taking on a menacing river. Sign-offs ask listeners what they have been watching and point them toward the show's Facebook group. The back catalog is large, so the titles named here are only a small slice of it.
Made for: Suits a parent who still wants to keep up with both family films and grown-up releases and enjoys hearing two fellow dads compare notes, with some household news mixed in.
What sets it apart: The show is built around a parent's viewing life, with films seen with the kids and films seen without them, so an animal basketball movie and an Oscar contender get the same patient treatment. The talk about them often comes after school soccer scores and storm updates.
