  • Great coverage of some classic television

    If you, like me, love the 2004 Democratic Primaries and the National Convention, this is the show for you. They cover hits like Howard Dean's scream, John Kerry reporting for duty, and other classics in ways that other shows just can't manage.

    The hosts, Ben, Steve, and Sean give you a (sound board) sampling of some of the most unforgettable tricks and traps of modern democracy.

    In addition, they have a great selection of truly unlucky sponsors. I'm catching up on the back catalog, but now t... more

  • San Pell is Gross

    I love the show, even though San Pel has more sugar than Coke has! We started watching B5 for the first time, and listening to this bland, monotone, Jeffrey Sinclair style podcast for wanderers. We’re up to S2E4 and would love to know how to hire a Seanio. Please let us know soon via a callout in an episode, so we’ll hear it in a year or so, as if you traveled through time to Babylon 4.

  • The Crusade for Crusade is ruining my life

    I originally submitted a review when I discovered the greatest lifestyle podcast in human history. To my dismay, it’s been replaced by a Crusade for Crusade?! Where’s the lifestyle tips? I’m glad we still have Sex Person of the week, but we all know Trace is the new Sinclair. That man is going to bang every alien he can get into his frictionless sheets!

    I have been searching high and low for a new lifestyle podcast, and this may be the greatest lifestyle podcast in history. It blew my mind ... more

  • It's like sitting down with some dorky friends and discussing one of the best Sci-Fi shows ever.

    They really take their sponsorships seriously. Take note, big businesses!

Movie: The Legend of the Rangers
Q: Well, what did you think of the movie?
I didn't think it was really, really bad... it was a normal kind of sci-fi show pilot, which is like kind of, you know, it dashes through its introduction. It's just like... kind of just a shrug.
