Our Podcast - In Layman's Terms
Separate from this website, we have an audio podcast on ITunes entitled In Layman's Terms where we give our opinions on movies, television, and news from the film world. Every episode is centered around one of our famous "Top 5" lists, and we also have recaps of the latest TV episodes from some of our favorite active series. In Layman's Terms is available on ITunes by clicking the link below. Make sure you also subscribe to receive our podcast weekly! If you wish to have you voice heard (maybe even literally) then send your opinions or ideas to laymansfilm@yahoo.com, or post something on our Twitter or Facebook pages, both entitled "In Layman's Terms".
