“New listener here—yes, as another listener said, you MUST cover ELLERY QUEEN—the greatest tv mystery series of all time. Trust and believe, and thanks! Really enjoying the Columbo pod. Also, you are WRONG about Dead Weight—Eddie Albert—as the worst episode—it’s because you’re not a woman—the...”Read full review »

“This podcast, like “Columbo” itself, never gets old. I’m probably on my fifth hearing of most episodes.
Steve and Sean weave the banter into the recap, veering into fascinating rabbit holes, but always returning to admiration of the show —even when they are hate-watching a klunker.”

“If you like Columbo, drinking, foul language, shoes, laughter, and drinking, this is the podcast for you! Sean has seen every episode multiple times and knows them backwards and forwards. Steve can't remember the episode he watched last week. Together they have a great time discussing each...”Read full review »

“I started listening to this podcast which I found on accident while the other Columbo podcast I like was on a break. I got through this rather quickly because I took several cross-country drives this summer. I wish I had been listening while the podcast was current and I would have been able to...”Read full review »

I hope this podcast stays...”Read full review »

“It’s great listening to you two gab about my favorite show, particularly because Columbo isn’t a current topic that tends to be a hot discussion at the workplace or among my friends. In your review of Dagger of the Mind, you said this was only one of two episodes involving two murderers; but...”Read full review »

“You two are always entertaining and so knowledgeable. Guessing when Columbo suspects the murderer and a murderer’s arrogance and comeuppance is the best enjoyment still after all these years of crime shows. I love the fact that you are both animal lovers. And can maintain a clean house, in spite...”Read full review »

That they review the episodes in random order at first bugged me a little but...”Read full review »

“Great topic but each episode could be 30 compelling minutes if not for the inside jokes and useless banter between Not Steve and Not Sean.
Amateur at best. This podcast is basically a phone conversation between two friends.”

“The Columbo Confab fellas bring a funny and smart take to the Columbo rewatch pod sub genre. It’s laid back, easy going and a lot of fun. Not sure what some previous reviewers were saying about profanity — this is a classy joint! And sometimes profanity is needed, so deal with it.”

However any real Colombo enthusiasts know that the 70s era of the show was really the only era...”Read full review »
