Podcasts by 83 til Infinity
We're "mature" nerds from the TNG era and we'll talk about anything from serialized vs episodic television to David Eddings vs Lin Carter to why potty training kids is the low point of parenthood.
Our goal is to help recapture some of the experience of sitting on the musty old couch in the basement with your friends having a blast while talking about things you (mostly) love.
We welcome feedback and suggestions - especially recommendations for how we can help our audience participate in our shows.
