Take the Cannoli: The Godfather Podcast

The Godfather, often cited as one of the greatest films (and novels) ever created, recently celebrated its 50th Anniversary. And despite its vintage, like a fine wine, The Godfather only seems to get better with age. The continuing influence of the trilogy can be seen not only in other classics it spawned, such as The Sopranos, but in more recent popular culture. Try streaming an episode of “Billions,” for example, without hearing not-so-subtle references to The Godfather.This podcast will explore the history of the films, along with The Godfather's continuing impact on our culture.

Entertaining

I recently listened to Lou Bortone's "Take The Cannoli: The Godfather Podcast," and I have to say that I was thoroughly entertained by it. Even though I'm not a fan of The Godfather movie, I found the podcast to be well done and very engaging. The format of the podcast is simple yet effective: Lou Bortone, a self-proclaimed "Godfather fanatic," provides commentary and analysis on each scene of the movie, explaining the cultural and historical context, pointing out hidden meanings and symbols, and sharing his own personal insights and reflections. His passion for the subject matter is contagious, and his smooth and engaging delivery keeps the listener interested and engaged throughout. In short, I highly recommend "Take The Cannoli: The Godfather Podcast" to anyone who is a fan of The Godfather movie or just enjoys good storytelling and interesting analysis. Whether you are a die-hard fan or a newcomer to the franchise, there is something for everyone in this podcast. Check it out, and you won't be disappointed!
