I could listen to them talk about anything!

I love this podcast so much, I’m a long time listener and so sad there’s barely any new recordings. Please, give us more content! I could literally listen to these two talk about anything. I love their Serling commentary and wit - it’s so funny and random.

Mr. Michael ,

I’m late to the party w this podcast …

I like it a lot. Re: To Serve Man…It’s really close to a sci-fi EC comic in tone.

Amazing podcast about The Twilight Zone

I’ve enjoyed listening to John and Fred discuss each and every episode of Twilight Zone. So many interesting and fun facts about the history of the story lines, the characters, film crew, and more. It’s also given me the chance to rewatch the entire series, and even see episodes I’ve never seen before. Awesome podcast in every way!
