Elana deftly hosts this show with knowledgeable guests, and as a listener i get my comics fix and feel my brain grow :)
This podcast is so stimulating and the hosts are so insightful and well informed, that you would assume that it’s nationally acclaimed and university funded. Each episode is deeply thought-provoking, and does an amazing job at reframing things you quietly love (or have never heard of) as impactful cultural artifacts that actually matter. Everyone involved seems so thoughtfully brilliant and Breakfast Club cool in a way that somehow gives you hope for the future of society.

This review is for the episodes of this podcast on the Venture Brothers only. They are the only episodes I've listened too thus far.
That being said I've rated this podcast 5 stars. Honestly it is not a 5 star podcast, yet. It does not deserve a 5 star rating but I want to be supportive because with a little bit of quality control it could easily be a 5 star podcast.
Ok so I actually really dig the content of this podcast.
I enjoy how they break down the references for me as well as the spec... more
