Despre acest podcast
The Searchers podcast is the passion of three cinephiles who seek to guide you across the potentially overwhelming and untraversed regions of cinema. After a long day toiling through the grassy knolls, dry deserts, and rocky slabs, you deserve a break. Come on down and warm yourself by the fire, crack open a beer, and join us.
New episodes every other week.
