So, we've journeyed through The Godfather series, and now we're at the infamous third instalment, Godfather Part III. If you've been following us, you already know the deal with the first two masterpieces. If not, give those episodes a listen—they're a total treat!

And then there's me, Charlie, maybe hosting solo or perhaps just playing the Podfather’s apprentice. This episode dives into all the juicy bits, like the controversial role of the Church, some epic scenes that might've been missed, and whether Al Pacino really nailed his role as Michael this time. And, because we've always gotta throw in a sprinkle of trivia, there’s talk about what nearly was—like, could we have seen a very different story with Robert Duvall? We cap it off with our rare episode of friendly disagreements—did the film stick the landing, or did it trip over its own legacy? Listen in and find out if the Godfather saga goes out with a bang or just a whimper. Whatever you think, make sure you hit subscribe and leave us a nice review!…

Hey there, 90s movie buffs! 🌟 Do you remember "The Bodyguard" from 1992? This romantic thriller starring Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston was one of the most successful films of the year. Costner plays Frank Farmer, a former Secret Service agent turned bodyguard, hired to protect Houston's character, Rachel Marron, a famous actress and singer from an unknown stalker.
