Customer Reviews
Good balance on topics and opinions
Just listening through the Sean Connery Bond films and Harry Potter films. Very interesting discussions with a good balance of opinions.
A great sci-fi/fantasy/all things cool movie and TVs podcast
This is another fantastic podcast from the mighty and incredibly prolific Trek fm network. Most of Trek fm's output concerns their first love (and mine) which is Star Trek, but this podcast shows that Trek fans can also have a passion for the wider world of sci-fi, fantasy and other cool movies and tv shows. These guys talk about Star Wars, James Bond, Harry Potter, the Marvel Cinematic Universe and many many other wonderful things, and they always do so in a highly interesting, intelligent and entertaining way. I love their point of view and they are always worth listening to. A great podcast which I highly recommend.
A Stellar Show
The 602 club is the perfect all in one show for all your sci-fi and dare I say geek loves.
The topics are never the same each week but the devotion and care and attention the team bring to each topic is second to none. This is truly well worth your time. 10/10 👍
