Andy…

Coming from TNC I continue to be surprised at how baffled Andy is by the industry he’s spent his career in. Great show! 5 stars!

Listen to it

Great time with two people who clearly have a need to find work. So much wasted time, such fun takes. And of course good old spoon fed Secunda, who lacks the ability to fill in any story element without at least monologue, or complete character interaction.

Who can tell when they are serious!?

Fun podcast with a couple guys you think might be knowledgeable about TV pilots – but who can tell for sure? Out of the gate, they put up a great show – and then torture us with Poochinski – which I’ll never forgive them for.
