  • Great pod for fans of The Watch or Bald Move

    The host, Victor, brings on a variety of cohosts, keeping things lively, but isn't afraid to go solo on occasion. His Letterbox reviews are so beautifully written, I thought maybe he was a professional critic for a newspaper out in New Jersey where he lives, but he set me straight on it being an avocation rather than a vocation.

    In podcast form, he is more avuncular and less erudite, but it's always an enjoyable listen.

  • Great podcast host!

    This is my go-to podcast when I look for commentary on the shows I’m watching. It’s like having a conversation with a friend. Victor almost always points out the same things I notice in shows, and his favorites of the year (except The Pitt!) are my favorites, too. He also has a wonderful voice.

    I particularly enjoyed his podcasts covering Andor.

  • I like this podcast! BUT….

    … can someone please help Darren out with his microphone?

    He’s just a distorted mess every single time - there’s no excuse for it!
