Break A Legacy
by Karl & Russ
Break A Legacy is a podcast devoted to movies and their legacy sequels. Each episode, Karl and Russ break down two movies in the same franchise that are at least 10 years apart to determine what works, what absolutely does not, and if the sequel honors the original... or just greedily raids the fridge. Expect bold opinions, enthusiastic rants, random tangents, and (occasionally) decent insight into the films you love, and love to hate. Buy us a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/breakalegacy
