I have enjoyed listening to every single one of these episodes since you started this “mini” series. These episodes are great and really reach out to a part of the Superman fandom a lot of people have missed. I discovered you listening to always hold on Smallville. Since then I become Wall2Wall Superman podcasts. I was so excited when you announced you were doing this one and I started watching along with you but then I got impatient and finished the series and waited for you to catch up. It has been a really fun ride and I learned so much about the George Reeves era of Superman. Anyone who finds this review really should give this a great chance. The series is treated with love and respect honestly truth justice and references to a better tomorrow (ie Smallville, Lois and Clark, Superman and Lois) I watched these on late night TV when I was a kid in the 80s and was really grateful for the work them now. Thank you
