We missed you!
One of my favorite Dudes With Opinions (tm) podcasts; funny, informative, and not at all snobbish about the craft of television.
This crew does an excellent job of analyzing and dissecting pilots. Max could voice a character on BIG MOUTH.
Thoughtful, articulate and fun conversations! Well done.
It’s a great to find shows you may not have watched before, it’s funny and a good way to hear about the context of how it was made!
