Rob lifeld like to toot his own. but he does have a lot of interesting things to say. he all so brings on good guest.
It pains me to give this less than 5 stars, because the content is worth that. Robservations is just not great as an audio podcast since the switch to a video format in early 2025.

The comic book talk is great, however the pettiness and narcissism is unmatched! Always good for a laugh.

First, much like you, I’ve been at comic books since I’ve been about 10 years old, and I have about nine years on you. It means the world to me to hear you talk about the history of comics, The writers the artists and all the in-betweens. So, the question I have for you today is; DC-Marvel- you’re the writer and the producer of this movie,... more
