  • Such a great listen

    This is my new favorite podcast. I am not through season 1 yet but from the get-go I love what these hosts are doing - serious review, looks at plot holes, fashions, odd background characters, and JB’s unusual techniques in pointing, jogging, and knowing things it seems like she should not. Thanks Mark & Laura!

I waited 30 years to have that will read, 8 year old me could never read it on my grandmother’s tube tv. Mark and Laura, you can have a cut of my inheritance if I ever go to that prison. This pod has brought me so much joy and comfort, I am so sorry to be caught up already that I might start over while I wait for new epi... more

A Lady in the Lake (Season 2, Episode 7)
Q: Did you like Jessica's character work in this episode?
I don't really have any complaints about the Fletcher we got, but I do miss the building of relationships in this episode because it felt less connected than usual.
A Lady in the Lake (Season 2, Episode 7)
Q: What did you think about the episode?
I think it was shot beautifully. Overall, everyone was pretty good, and it was a nice episode.
Funeral at Fifty-Mile (Season 1, Episode 21)

I feel like that's super appropriate. Isn't that just very respectful?
