The Bottom Line
The witty Will Clark and analytical Derek Graves have years of entertainment experience and this time team up to give a gay spin on today's mainstream and gay movies with their podcast Reel Friends with Will & Derek, broadcast online at Gayradio.com.
Reel Friends is a fun and refreshing alternative to the stodgy Ebert & Roeper-type film critiques. Will and Derek's relaxed, witty and conversational style brings the podcast to life in a setting that feels more like friends discussing a love for film instead of rote thumb waving.

Guide Review - Reel Friends w/ Will & Derek
It's obvious that Will and Derek enjoy film. Their unique styles and chemistry draws the listener into a circle of casual discussion and critique. The "reel friends," who are actually friends, cover at least one gay or gay-theme movie each podcast. Their addition of the hottest mainstream movies, however, gives the show a broader appeal. The duo's discussions aren't limited to who's hot and who's not; they're happy hour talks cover all aspects film, including storylines, facts and thier own personal experiences.
