More Gloria Kovac, PI!

The main podcast is entertaining and hoot. The Gloria Kovac miniseries (?) is even better. Well acted, tightly scripted, and filled with jokes. A nice addition to the show.

Night vale fan 22 ,

Loved it

Kind of reminded me a bit of a modern take on Get Smart. Can’t wait for the next season. Man, that cliffhanger.
