I hope you'll upload the video of the episode with Sebastian Stan too, because there were so many moments while I was listening that made me wish I was watching it instead...❤

This interview was my first introduction to Sam Fragoso's podcast. I am now a loyal and avid listener.

This was such a great interview, I'm hoping we get to see the whole thing on video as well.

That’s probably the best interview Coppola did in all this Megalopolis press tour. Great job!

We CAN be geniuses. We can also be barbarians. Create or destroy.

Here, because I caught the last showing of Megalopolis in our area and loved it. Subscribed just now because this was such a thoughtful interview.

What a wonderful, wonderful interview. Great questions with great, beautiful answers. Just a beautiful conversation overall. Props to your interview skills and empathy, and props to Mr. Coppola for his honesty, wisdom and warmth.

I love how the interviewer tries to start by giving a sense of camaraderie and intimacy between him and Coppola and Coppola’s like, “And who are you?”

I liked it and nothing else today had as much substance to digest afterwards

This interview felt like a gift to my heart

Great interview with a brilliant artist. Well done. Thank you.

This made me cry. I'm proud I'm living in the era of Francis Coppola. such legendary and inspiring artist and human being.. And you Sam are wonderful interviewer. look like Wes Anderson in this haircut. just keep going. and send my love to Mr Coppola. regards from Egypt.

This was a wonderful interview! I learned a lot about Coppola I didn’t know!

I loved this interview, Sam. Thank you for sharing it with us.

The part you get Francis to read is my favorite part mentioned Megalopolis in Path to Paradise. I feel like that Mega's motif switched a little bit since it's first born in the 1980s, but I must say I love the original vibe of it - Glass Bead Game -ish, personal and kind of heavy. I LOVE Megalopolis the way it is now, but can't help but imagine what a different film the og Mega would be if Francis could do it in 1984. Thank you for the interview!

Sam you are a natural - calmly spoken, engaging and most importantly, a great listener. Keep up the amazing work!

4 decades to produce a bloated and boring plot twisted joke of a movie. This movie and the joker 2 are this years absolute flops. Don’t waste your money at the theater.

Great interview, Sam

Who also see elon musk and isolated states that is d. trump promised? Or message that if America want to be worlds empire and save it's influence to the planet so they need to change direction and behavior from stoic to utopy?

Nice cinema experience with that movie. Not sure but messages but it gives magic of diving in intense tale. Unfortunately looks like 50% of it was cut off and if it's true I wish to see full in theatre. Megalopolis was the only reason to visit cinema during war.

I wish you had asked why Mr. Coppola felt it so important to support child abuser Victor Salva, to the point of spending money defending him in court & blackballing Salva's victim

He is incredible.

I love this interview and the movie

When Francis reads his own notes on Megalopolis it makes me feel as though it should have been a book.

Exquisite interview. You know how to do it. It reminds me a little of the smoothness of Dick Cavett. You were highly prepared. Glad you watched the movie twice. The movie left me to ponder the themes and visuals.

Beautiful interview

Honestly, this is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen in my life. Worth every minute. Your care and understanding of FFC really shines through here and the last 30-ish seconds are a beautiful summation of that. His genuine response to you there shows what a true romantic he is. On top of all of that, you also helped me grok what Megalopolis was about a bit more. I don’t think I’ll ever fully understand it because it seems like such a personal film for him, but the main takeaways are much more clear. Thanks for this amazing interview.

I'm huge fan of Julia Louis-Dreyfus' work. I've seen a number of interviews with her and she never fails to be genuine and thoughtful. This interview could've used less Sam and more Julia.

Amazing interview! I love Julia!

One word for Julia Louis-Dreyfus. BRILLIANT. Thanks for showing the VEEP clip, I had forgotten that one and it made me laugh so hard once again.

Really different interesting questions and of course good answers from Mr Linklater

Best podcast and best interviewer out there.

My ultimate most amazing unique heart explosion source of inspiration: Richard Linklater. I love you forever. ( English is not my first language but I think u go it )

Kamau makes so much sense in a world full of BS. Great interview !
