  • My honest opinion (not that it matters)

    I honestly feel like I Truely do really enjoy listening to this podcast, I’ve seen a ridiculous amount of hate online especially towards Michael which frankly I feel is unfair, i understand that many views like my self really enjoy the show wholeheartedly but you need to respect other people’s ways of expressing their own opinion and the thoughts they have on their own creation. Furthermore I really do enjoy the dynamic between the Co hosts and I feel that I really hope the negativity of some pe... more

  • More than a podcast, a time capsule for Smallville fans

    Talk Ville is more than just a podcast, it captures a special time in the world and brings back the magic, heart and nostalgia of Smallville in such an authentic way.

    The quality of the podcast is better than most. It is very well planned and thoughtfully put together, while still feeling natural, authentic and humorous. It has the perfect balance of being fun and light-hearted, while also taking the show, the characters and the memories seriously when it matters.

    Hearing the stories, reflecti... more

  • Smallville hits twice

    Fantastic series. Loved it when I was younger and loving it again. Talk Ville has brought back some great memories.

    The Talk ville team is doing an amazing job and the Ryantist has added some artistic flare to the show as well.

    Highly recommend.

    Thanks guys, keep up the good work.

    I love this podcast, I basically started crushing on Michael Rosenbaum big time when he first came on the screen as Lex Luthor back in 2001. I was 15 years old back then . Even now I still think Michael is the hottest guy ever. And I would love to date him someday. He is my dream lover. Sorry, I didn’t mean to come on too strongly I’m cool, I’m cool. because when I got older I’ve collected and beige watched the whole series more than 10 times, and given my strong visual memory I have memorized... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Doomsday w/ SAM WITWER AND AARON ASHMORE!
Q: What would you change about the Doomsday battle if you could go back?
Sam Witwer and Aaron Ashmore discuss potential tweaks, including dialogue and how the beast communicates, but acknowledge the intensity and emotional weight already delivered.
Beast
Q: Tom, do you have memories of Sam in the Fortress of Solitude?
Sam was well prepared and game; the set was weird but exciting for him, and Tom recalls fondly working with him while learning the scene dynamics.
Stiletto
Q: What did you think of Lois's decision to chase the Stiletto story without solid photo evidence?
The group felt that Lois had the right ambition but the storytelling didn't justify the means, with a lot of the plot feeling padded and the payoff relying on a late reveal rather than a strong investigative arc.
Hex w/ SERINDA SWAN!
Q: Was it more relaxing for you to portray Clark with a lighter attitude in Hex compared to his usual serious demeanor?
Yes, the hosts feel the lighter, more comic tone allowed for more dynamic interactions and showcased Clark's flexibility when paired with strong supporting characters.
Requiem w/ KRISTIN KREUK!
Q: How did you approach the loft scene with so much history between Clark and Lana?
We leaned into the emotional core of their relationship, letting the history drive the performance and using the long shoot to build a sense of inevitability rather than simply hitting beats.
