I was a firefly fan from the first episode that was on TV. The episode that was obviously not the first episode of the series. I got my children hooked and 20 something years later still big fans of Nathan, Alan and the rest of the crew. I listen to far too much politics and this show is a little very break and just plain delightful.
So many laughs listening to the both of you! 😄😄😄
Makes my day so much better! 💜
Great Podcast.
Interesting Conversations of two good friends having incredibly much fun together and giving insight in their lives, the movie and TV industry.
Highly recommended and now my favorite podcast.
This podcast started out so great. It’s unfortunate the Hawley interview didn’t address nepotism or who TF thought Jenna Tatum’s character was a good idea. I miss Firefly. I watched the DVD on repeat during chemo. I’m sad to find out the stars are so casually antisemitic. I know that’s the “correct” attitude in the entertainment industry right now, but it’s still disappointing.
I’m sitting here in the main room of a very space age house my dad built when I was a kid with Penelope, our 100 year old parlor stove heating the room on this cold day. My wife and I have been watching Firefly again and truly enjoying the contrast between space age and old western.
