    Doug Hess
    I like his style. Great interview with Dr. Kelly re Tyrone Power. Update——please mute mic when coughing and clearing your throat. Note—Mr. Hess, please stop mispronouncing names of movie stars, i.e., Barbara STANSWYCK AND LILLIAN JISH.

    Not a lot of depth
    I’ve listened to many of Doug Hess‘s interviews on Forgotten Hollywood. It’s somewhat enjoyable because of the subject matter, but it is so frustrating to listen to many facts being left out about the stars, and it’s a very sanitized version of them! But the most irritating thing is he does not seem to have studied the material beforehand. It sounds like he’s running through the information in the podcast which results in him mispronouncing their names outright butchering them really! It’s just so annoying, I need to look for another podcast. If this is his area of interest, I would think that he would be more schooled and dedicated to presenting the material. When I’m listening to these interviews, I often find myself arguing at the radio in the car because the names and facts get mangled so often!

    For every movie buff…
    this podcast is a must-listen! Doug has some interesting guests/subjects. I’ve learned about a number of new film books that might have escaped my intention. Doug’s interviewing style is very relaxed and informal which makes it sound like two old friends are talking film. Bravo!

    So so
    Ok- I love the idea of this so I’m going to keep listening - although I was very disappointed in Doris Day episode. Since that was one of earliest ones I’m going to hope it gets better than this - moderator is difficult to listen to because of hesitancy - stops and starts and - not well prepared. Got facts wrong - repeated things several times - just disappointing-

    Good podcast
    As I was going through some podcast, looking for a good one trying to find tips on how to help my kids with the remote learning at home. I found this interesting podcast. Forgotten Hollywood as I was listening to the first episode and since all of them, I thought this is very interesting information, I am really exited about learning about things that I didn’t know, Doug is a good host, so knowledgeable and well informed about the job he does. I am all in enjoying every episode I have heard so far and I am so exited each week waiting to listen to the new podcast.

    Hollywood Celebrity History, News, Gossip, and More
    This is a great podcast to get what I call privileged information about the Hollywood of yesteryears! Insightful, well researched, and entertaining talk about our most beloved movies and celebrities! I love the different themes, the breakdown and analysis of classic movies. I am also learning new and exciting information about celebrities and movies. It’s almost like being taken behind the scenes. Gain insight on how our beloved celebrities shaped the industry, and our culture as a whole. Check out this Podcast! You will not regret it!

    Remembering Tinseltown
    It’s been fun listening to the first couple of episodes of Forgotten Hollywood! Doug, whom has a very soothing voice, shares some good information about Hollywood’s past history of stars and movies. I enjoyed learning about Doris Day and his “Movies that March” episode was good too! I’m looking forward to hearing about some of the great moments, movies, and stars as Doug recalls the Yesteryears of Hollywood!
