The Empire Spoiler Special Film Podcast
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One ft. Christopher McQuarrie Part One & Part Two

Since 2018 and the last time the Empire podcast + McQ dived deep into a Mission, they've spun off their "spoiler specials" into its own podcast — and made that subscription only, grr. But these are so good that I've paid up so I can listen to 'em. The sheer length (5½ hours across these first two parts, with at least two more to come) means it can get a little rambling, going off on tangents here, there and everywhere rather than being laser-focused on the filmmaking, but that's kinda fun in its own way too. And when it really gets down to the meat of it, it's as super-insightful as ever.
