Vintage Century Idle Hour
Hi, there. Jennifer here. This show is about old movies and stuff. It's the cure insomniacs have been begging for, and the virtual companion for those who are really bored at work. Take it from my mom: "This is incontrovertibly the best podcast the world has ever known."

Vintage Century Idle Hour
Slaps, Punches, and Kansas City Confidential
Reviews of classic movies from Hollywood's Golden Age: Kansas City Confidential
Today’s show sets a record for the sheer number of slaps and punches heard in a single episode. Yes, we’re in the gritty, hard-boiled world of film noir today with a classic of the genre, Kansas City Confidential. While we’re at it, we’ll take a look at what “noir” really is. And, because we are in Jennifer's hometown for this one, she wants to explore Kansas City’s connections to golden age Hollywood. This episode is a love letter to what Jennifer thinks is the finest city in the whole world. All of this—and more—on the Vintage Century Idle Hour.
