This week Zach is joined by Anthony Polinick from The Grund to discuss the one hundred ninety fourth episode of Smallville, “Sacrifice." They talk the end of Checkmate, how this should've been a bottle episode about Chloe and Tess being trapped inside Watchtower, the House of Zod symbol, and the tragic death of Faora and her unborn child. Don't worry, there have been no security upgrades to the latest Always Hold On To Smallville! Check out Anthony on The Grund!
