Top TV & Film Podcasts

Love that feel when you watch a fascinating documentary and then unpack it in gloriously gory detail with other people who've seen it?

Then join host Melanee Dark and her co-host Jim Hudson they dig into the details of classic docs, newly released docs, crime docs, biographical docs and every genre in between.

Host Melanee Dark is a podcast lover and information junkie who also happens to be documentary obsessed. She's also a former voice actor, one-time stand up comedian, current writer and social media strategist and one of the 69 (nice!) people who did a Stupid Human Trick on The Late Show with David Letterman.

Co-host Jim is a musician, actor, video game producer, over-thinker & competitive contrarian. He has a passion for documentaries and fixating on personal regrets. But in a good way.

Random trivia - Jim and Melanee dated in college. But that's in the past. Seriously. Don't make it weird.
