Interesting and entertaining
I really like this podcast. The interviews are always interesting and I’ve grown very fond of the panels; even when they are about TV series I have not seen they are fun to hear.
The only flaw might be, that it is very US-centric. There is much good science fiction and fantasy from South America, Asia and Europe I would like to hear about.
Input worth your time.
Horizon expanding interviews with a diverse selection of interesting guests. Really glad I discovered this. Thank you Wired!
Time well invested
There's rarely an episode that does not appeal to my inner geek self. Even if the interview (usually an author) doesn't always interest me, it's well worth sticking around for the second half, where the hosts usually discuss a geek media-related topic with another guest. Thanks to Dave & John for this wonderful podcast from a listener in Germany!
