Maggie
Co-Host of The Best Pictures Podcast
A life long movie buff who grew up on a mixture of TCM and (delightfully) bad 80s action films, Maggie fell in love with movies at age three when her dad showed her Star Wars, despite her mom's worrying it might scare her. She spent the following years getting over her fear of Darth Vader, expanding her movie knowledge, and convincing her friends to watch her favorites. Eventually she decided to meld her love of movies with her obsession with podcasts and talked her best friend Ian into launching The Best Pictures Podcast.
Maggie has hosted 127 Episodes.
