  • My Hometown

    I am watching the series on Peacock and am thrilled to find your podcast. I was born on Charles Street during WWII. My grandfather ran a Sinclair (Sherwood Oil) gas station at the site where Camden Yards is today. I loved every minute of the show when it aired in the 90s and listening to these interviews while now living in Ohio makes me so thankful for the memories and the truly remarkable characters of Balwmer, hon!

  • Much more than just a fan podcast

    This podcast is almost like a cast and crew commentary for the series. I love the show and have been championing it for years. This podcast justifies my love and lets me know I’m not alone. Also a great podcast for filmmakers and film historians. Episodes geared towards camera department and crew go so much deeper than you’d expect from a 30 year old show. Hopefully this pod will continue and grow when H:LOTS finally comes to Peacock.
