Meet Your New Film Besties

Welcome to Pause Pod, where two gals who love film try to yap their way into becoming indie darlings ✨

Hey girlinas! We’re Dani and Kara, two film obsessed besties. One of us is in the UK, the other in the USA, and we created this space because we were tired of film bro culture making us feel like we had to prove ourselves to enjoy movies.

Pause Pod is your safe space to love cinema however feels right to you. Whether you cry at every cheesy rom com, have hot takes about deeper meaning behind horror films, or think the twilight saga deserved an Oscar for the scene where Bella is depressed staring out her window for four months - this is your home.

We believe film discussions should feel like sleepovers with your besties. It should be fun and intellectual, but never pretentious.

In this episode:

We give each other a blind date with a film and dive into House Bunny & Frances Ha, as well as give our hot takes on who should be the next James Bond!

our segments:

play - our main film reviews and deep dives

rewind - revisiting films with fresh eyes or a comparative focus on multiple films by the same directors/actors.

fast forward - upcoming releases and film news we're buzzing about

pause - behind the scenes moments, random life updates, or stories that made us, well, pause

new episodes drop every other Wednesday because we believe good conversations can't be rushed (and we’re working gals. No burnout round these parts)

However if you’re DESPERATE for content we'll be posting clips, behind the scenes moments, and way too many instagram stories to keep you thoroughly entertained between episodes.

Be a Darling and join the sleepover:
