No commercials, no interruptions, no breaks. Just lots and lots of juicy info and details! I've gone through most of them in a breeze! Keep them coming!!

I discovered this podcast thanks to Adam Savage’s year-end video, where he highlighted his favorite projects, objects, and experiences of 2024. He gave it a glowing recommendation—and he wasn’t wrong. I’m hooked!

A podcast for those that love film and the intricate ( and often messy) process of taking an idea from the mind to the screen. Each episode crafts a perspective on the final product, through analysis of the bread crumbs along the journey. Tansy deftly weaves researched insights into her own thoughtful perspective taking the listener on a journey that will be guaranteed to illuminate their perspective on each film. Unlike other podcasts that often repeat and meander in their POV’s, Going Rogue is tightly composed with audio and sound mixing that moves each episode forward with a pace and style that is rare in today’s landscape. Please share this podcast with others so Tansy can keep these coming. Big thumbs up!

Really excellent discussion in cinema and the choices that are made. Highly recommend for any listeners interested in film and films that could have been.

Enjoyable and informative

Tansy Gardam is such a good storyteller! This podcast could risk feeling like an elongated Wikipedia article, but instead is this fascinating character-driven set of stories about people usually trying their best to make a movie. I’d give this a sixth star just for the ship horn sound effect (listen to season 3, I couldn’t do the horn justice if I explained it here).

The WGA series was well-researched, and extremely timely considering the 2023 Writers Strike. She's uncovered stories about filmmaking that appreciates the craft of filmmaking, while acknowleding the hardships and missteps of certain productions. An excellent listen!

This is a very interesting, thoroughly researched podcast that immediately becomes the next episode I watch as soon as it comes out and I finish whatever existing podcast episode I am watching. I’ve learned tons about the “Solo” movie, the writer’s strike in 2007, and “Rogue One” (very timely with “Andor” out).

Enjoyed this tremendously. The creator is obsessive, passionate, and thoughtful — I learned a lot not just about Rogue One, but also about filmmaking and the modern studio system. Highly recommend.

I found the show was not just interesting for how Rogue I and Solo were made, but also the context given about the film industry in general. The stories are paced well, informative, and just cheeky enough to be self-aware when shifting into personal opinion. I will stay subscribed in case Tansy plans on “going” anywhere else with her research on Star Wars or the rest of the film industry!

This is a strangely immense amount of time and effort put into dissecting a Star wars movie like it is art. I wasted several hours of my life listening to what I thought was going to be a neat history of a very well received film, but that devolved into film student opining on lens choices and rigging. (But not in an “inside the industry” way, instead in an “if I was Orson Welles” way.) It’s a strange approach for a well received action film that does pretty much exactly what it’s supposed to do.

First time I have ever rated a podcast but this one deserves it. Well researched and delivered. I wish all my favorite trouble plagued movies had shows like this. Can’t wait for whatever season 2 is.

I was frustrated that I didn’t like Rogue One very much. This podcast helped me understand how that happened, made clear that I wasn’t the only one, and gave me a new appreciation for the art and science of filmmaking.
