Eastwood Reloaded
Clint Eastwood is more than a movie star—he’s a myth, a mayor, a meme, and maybe the last great American icon. In this cinematic biography told one film at a time, we break down the legend behind the lens. From spaghetti Westerns to Oscar-winning dramas, from Dirty Harry to political oddities like debating an empty chair, Eastwood Reloaded explores how one man reshaped the silver screen—and what it cost him to become the myth. Each 10-minute episode dives into a single chapter of Eastwood’s life or filmography, told by a single narrator and designed for easy bingeing. Because legends don't just ride off into the sunset—they get deconstructed. Portions of this podcast are created with the help of A.I.
