“A Star Is Born”
Episode 105
In this special in-person episode recorded in a hotel room in Lincoln, Nebraska, Chance and Noah reunite to watch and review “A Star is Born.” The guys discuss everything from the film’s portrayal of pop music, what it means to be a songwriter, why the hell Dave Chappelle is in this movie, and how Bradley Cooper can play sweaty, drunk and sexy at the same time. While Chance believes this movie is the great Vanessa Carlton/Caleb Followill (Kings of Leon) love story that no one ever asked for, Noah has a pretty hot take on the real reason for the tragic ending everyone is talking about. Give ’em a listen, unless you’re too fuckin’ loaded there, brother.

Movie Reviews & Reappraisals
Be Reel was a movie reviewing & reappraising podcast hosted by Chance Solem-Pfeifer and Noah Ballard.
We cherished our 8-year run, talking to filmmakers like Gus Van Sant, insulting each other’s taste, and laughing to high heaven.
Chance’s new movie podcast, The Kick, continues to explore curated sub-genres and movie geekery. Noah is a frequent and beloved guest.
