Great information
New follower and even though in an older person,
I always learn something new about the person or shows which adds to my enjoyment
Excellent Podcast
Not only does the “Hall of Justice” makes for a phenomenal title for those of us that grew with the classic cartoon, the podcast and host Seth Everett provides really great content with big name guest stars and timely content. Seth’s a great host with a great hosting voice! Definitely check it out!
