Listened to the “Try and Catch Me” episode. Not recommended. It’s not for me. I love Columbo, and usually I love the podcasts about the show.

Two guys talking about Columbo episodes- what’s not to like?
Fun!
One of the best Columbo Podcasts around. The obsession with if whether 70 or 90 mins long does get a bit repetitive and annoying.
Always great to hear the esteemable Mike White & Chris Stachiw! It’s a joy to go through vintage Columbo alongside these two hosts. My highest recommendation!
