    This was one of the first, if not *the* first podcast I ever listened to; I downloaded it each week and loaded it onto my iPod. I was spoiled for other podcasts as there are pretty detailed show notes included on the website, which no other podcast I’ve listened to since does as thoroughly, if at all.

    Even 20+ years after Firefly, and almost that much time since Serenity, this podcast is a delight. Every so often I do a search for the main cast members to see if they’re a part of another anoth... more

  • An old friend

    I listened to the first couple of seasons when they were originally released and came looking for the show to mention on my own podcast as the first podcast I listened to. Imagine my delight to discover that it has kept on going and I have so many hours to listen to. A wonderful and beautifully produced show

  • Best fancast out there

    This is for sure one of the greatest and most comprehensive fancasts for anything out there. Most fan podcasts are just scant bits of news and 45 minutes of banter. This isn't bad, but The Signal out does it a hundred fold. Shows incluide news, essays, stories from fans, in-universe segments, highlights of fandom activities, and much more. Every episode is interesting and wonderful. As with everything, the Browncoat community takes normal and makes it shiney. Keep flying, and never ever stop The... more

  • Best Firefly and Serenity Podcast on the web

    Yes, I said it. This is the best. All the people involved seem to work for the common goal of bringing an informative and entertaining podcast to the listners. From the fan fiction, updates on Browncoats Redemption and other things Whedon this is the podcast to listen to. Now if only they would put the "Music from the Verse" episode back on Itunes since mine somewhow got deleted from my hard drive.
