Fantastic selection of shows, great host who adds interesting information about the episode history, actors, or other related content. He keeps it interesting but light, just the right amount of accompanying info.
The episodes are always great, but Romanovich's research and commentary after every episode really ignited my love for this pod. His historical showbiz anecdotes are always great.
I am giving this podcast a positive review
I really enjoy listening to the old shadow episodes. This recent run featuring Orson and Agnes Moorhead was a special treat. The host is smart and well informed. Just fantastic!
