The Reel Roulette
We are two lifelong friends bonded by our love of movies and we want you to join us as we embark on a cinematic adventure like no other. At the start of each episode, we’ll spin the roulette wheel, where 38 randomly movie themed categories are waiting. From there, we’ll take turns picking our top five movies from that category in a true fantasy draft format. But the fun doesn't stop there! We want you, our listeners, to join in by choosing your favorite list from our selections. At the end of each episode we will update our final list to our social media and it’s up to you to choose your winner. But beware, the loser must face a movie themed challenge chosen by the winner each week. Tune in for lively discussions, surprising picks, and a dash of friendly rivalry, welcome to The Reel Roulette!
