About Reel Talk Extra (RTX)

From the publisher's feed

On Reel Talk Extra (RTX), we talk about Movies and TV Shows with the aim of creating options for our listeners so that they can make an informed decision on what to watch. There is way too much content out there and we do the screen time so that you don't have to. We give our opinions on the movies we have watched and then let you decide. RTX is hosted by Mfon Edem and Onyeka Onyekpe, as well as RTX contributors who occasionally bring the "Reel Talk" to the table.
