  • A new view on Blakes 7 James Burke FTW!!

    Really enjoying the podcast. I like that you are bringing fresh perspectives to this show - particularly April who is watching for the first time. Its great for a grumpy old B7 fan like myself to hear new thoughts on my favorite show. The thing that finally made me give you guys a review was the mention of my childhood hero - James Burke. Connections and The Day the Universe changed are fantastic ways to understand broader technological influences on our world. Nothing like it before or since. ... more

  • Excellent BLAKES 7 Podcast!

    Absolutely loving this BLAKES 7 podcast! AJ, Allen and April are going episode-by-episode, making it really easy to follow along if you are watching the show for the first time. They provide fantastic insights on the motivations of the characters, and are very careful not to spoil future episodes of the show. I'm already a BLAKES 7 fan, and this podcast has been a wonderful way to re-experience the series! Highly recommended!
