Fun, smart, and thoughtful!
Also I do really enjoy the part where Sarah summarizes the movie even if I’ve seen it a million times, v comforting
Listening to You Are Good is doing yourself a favor!!
I found this podcast after listening to You’re Wrong About & then wanting to devour all of Sarah’s work, but I have come to love it in it’s own right as my favorite podcast about movies. This one lets me see what other people find and connect to in movies, lets me discover movies I never noticed, and encourages me to make space for my own relationship with movies, as messy and emotional and inexplicable as that is. Their guests are engaging, the hosts are the best, and I sincerely adore this podcast. Cannot recommend it enough!!
Feel the FEELINGS
But about movies! This is a podcast of wonderful people being sweet while they review the movies that we love. You’ll feel heard and cared for and…GOOD.
Introspective and fun
Get ready to consider your favorite (and least favorite and everything in between) films in a new light. Emotions and Daddy are at the forefront.
Great Show
This is a good show that I enjoy and would recommend.
Vulnerable, Unique approach to Criticism
The discussion space cultivated by Alex, Sarah, and Catherine in the pod is unlike any others that I have heard. I find that even if I have not seen the movie, I am greeted by a warm blanket of discussion and reflection about the impact and meaning of stories in our culture. Beautiful show, and I appreciate it immensely.
Two funny, smart, kind friends talk about movies with interesting guests
This isn’t a typical movie podcast so if that’s what you’re looking for is probably not for you. But it has made me cry (in a good way!) many times and it always makes me laugh. I hope they keep making episodes forever.
A warm listen
A therapeutic listen; sometimes it soothes, sometimes it stirs up uncomfortable feelings.Bonus dose of nostalgia.
these folks are such good eggs
oh this show is just a warm and reassuring hug every time. literally the same sensation as a weighted blanked (if weighted blankets sometimes make you cry)
lovely people, lovely conversations
Love these folks. Love their discussions. Best parasocial friendships I have! The humor, the humanity, the emotion. Love it all. Grateful for the time I’ve spent listening.
Audio Hugs
I’ve been listening to this podcast since their debut. Sarah and Alex have become parasocial besties, it’s not about the movies, I love hearing their thoughts as they discuss the cinematic selection. It’s a comfort and a joy. Oh, and Carolyn is the Daddy!
Comforting Podcast
I really enjoy this podcast. Sarah is so insightful and I love her intellectual takes on movies and how well she correlates them to the events in history that were taking place before or at the time they were made. I also have an English degree and I wish that I could think about art on her level. Sarah and Alex are an endearing combination for a podcast about movies and feelings. Every episode makes me feel good and makes me think from a new perspective. Sarah speaks so eloquently and her thoughts are so deep. Thanks for your all of your work.

I love this show!
Sarah and Alex feel like your empathetic deep feeling friends. Favorite podcast!
A wonderful hug of a show
I love Sarah and Alex and their cadre of amazing guests. They’ve introduced incredible movies to me, and I love hearing their interpretations of the films I’ve seen. ❤️
The absolute best. Truly.
I look forward to this podcast every week. I love movies and feelings and this nails it. The hosts are so wonderful and I always end up nodding along, laughing and sometimes even tearing up. A gigantic thank you to Sarah and Alex for this warm hug every week. Also! It’s named after my favorite line in my favorite movie that I have often in my life tried to hold close in my mind. YOU ARE GOOD! ❤️
excellent show
lovely show with interesting commentary on movies and the american zeitgeist
A gem
You Are Good has been a really bright spot for me over the last couple of years. I have been able to revisit so much of the media I was drawn to as a kid and teen but felt some shame about (hello Saw). I believe there’s something for everyone in this show, and the conversations are always warm, funny, and thoughtful.
You are good is so good
Why has it taken me so long to say how much I love this podcast?? Shame on me
Perennial Favorite
I just love listening to Sarah and Alex discuss movies. They have such a beautiful and emotionally resident way of discussing movies that I’ll never get tired of. Personal favorite episodes include Julie and Julia, the parent trap, and legally blonde.
This podcast is good
I have listened to a ton of movie review podcasts. Each seems to try and find their own voice and niche. None, though, have ever caused me to reassess the reason I love the movies I love on an emotional level. I love that they have guests that get to talk about why they love the movies they do. It causes me to really see the art form of cinema from a different perspective.
Five Stars
Really enjoy these conversations even when I haven’t seen the movies they are discussing. Always a new perspective offered.
I feel good
After listening. Hosts are the best. Guests are the best. Even if I never saw the movie I fully enjoy the recap and commentary. Love you guys.
a favorite!
i tend to be in my head a lot and one of best ways to avoid overthinking is listening to this podcast! i love listening to alex and sarah, and i’m happy i found them :)
