Seeing and Believing

After 400 episodes, we've reached the end. But before we go, Kevin and Sarah have a conversation about their ethos of faithful movie criticism, bringing the podcast full circle to a conversation Kevin and Wade had with Josh Larsen (Think Christian, Filmspotting, Fear Not!) in the earliest days of the podcast.

This is our final weekly podcast episode. Thank you for listening. We're not packing up our critical gear entirely: Seeing & Believing is now a newsletter. Keep the conversation going by giving us a follow on Substack or Letterboxd.
