Getting into A24 podcasts

Most podcast conversations about A24 arrive sideways. The name tends to surface during reviews of individual films, while sustained discussion of the organization itself is rare. That makes this a thin listening subject, but there are useful routes through it: production craft, critic-led reviews, horror fandom, and fast-moving movie chat.

The clearest A24 conversation

The Filmmakers Podcast offers the strongest starting point with How a $500k Indie Horror became an A24 Box Office Smash: Ian Tuason on 'Undertone', audio horror & landing 'Paranormal Activity 8'. The show’s filmmaker-to-filmmaker style keeps the conversation practical and informal, with the title promising a path from a modest budget through box-office success rather than a broad history of A24.

There is a useful companion in /Film Weekly’s undertone (with Writer/Director Ian Tuason), V For Vendetta's 20th Anniversary (with James McTeigue), and More. Its newsroom-like format moves more quickly and places the Ian Tuason interview inside a wider film roundup. Expect A24 to be part of the context, not the episode’s sole concern.

When A24 stays in the background

Most of the remaining coverage is attached to movie reviews. After The Show Movie Podcast brings a blunt, conversational duo dynamic to Episode 930 - Marty Supreme Review and Episode 934 - If I Had Legs, I'd Kick You Review. The hosts tend to work out their judgments aloud, circling through plot choices, emotional logic, and irritation rather than delivering a polished critical essay.

For a more structured critic exchange, Breakfast All Day movie reviews covers Episode 592: The Drama, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie reviews. Talking at the Movies reaches the same film with a faster, more digressive rhythm in 479: The Drama & The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Reviews!!!. Neither title promises an A24-focused discussion; choose between them according to whether you prefer measured criticism or lively back-and-forth.

The horror route

Horror podcasts provide several film-specific entry points. The Spook House Podcast goes directly into spoiler territory with Bring Her Back | Full Spoiler Review! and also offers MaXXXine Review with EPIC FILM GUYS!. Horror Hour with the Hannas: A Horror Movie Review Comedy Podcast takes a more playful, argumentative approach in Undertone (2026) - "The Scariest Movie of 2026...so far". As reactions to particular releases, these are useful; as deep examinations of A24 as an organization, they would be the wrong place to look.

Where to start

Start with The Filmmakers Podcast for the only episode that puts A24 explicitly in its title and connects the name to filmmaking process and box-office results. Follow it with /Film Weekly for another Ian Tuason conversation in a broader industry-news format. For criticism, try Breakfast All Day movie reviews; for energetic horror talk, choose Horror Hour with the Hannas: A Horror Movie Review Comedy Podcast.
