    Fun to rewatch this brilliant show and listen along. However please tone down the references to god, fawning over each other and cast members and and comments about people’s appearances. I just want to hear about the show and how it was made.

  • Janine Turner is ruining this for me!

    Love the original show so much and was so excited for this podcast. Rob Morrow is great and so are all the guests. But, JT is turning me off for many reasons. Calling it “brave” to be anti-LGBTQ might be the last straw for me.
