He played an absolute bastard once on Columbo

Currently obsessed with Columbo, so this episode slapped. Has anyone directed the boys yet to the Mrs ‘Arris Goes to Paris” Easter egg in the Janet Leigh episode “Forgotten Lady”?

Holly Catlin-Meyer

I’m looking forward to the discussion about the rides. That ET attraction is one of my favorites, and I don’t like the movie. You can easily go on it multiple times in a row with very little wait. ☺️

Robert Carroll

Wow! A Mary Prankster shout out! I think all of Dundalk, Maryland just felt a little tingle in their nethers.

Elliot Cowan

As mentioned, it’s easy to watch this episode and look for seminal moments of Spielberg greatness, but the following episode is full of extremely stylish clever touches.

If David is serious about a 00s video game pod I'd absolutely volunteer to talk about Conkers Bad Fur Day

Brian Case

Everytime Prescription: Murder was mentioned my mind went to the Dick Van Dyke 90s show Diagnosis:Murder.

Andrew Jansson

I really hope March Madness this year comes down to the entirety of The Drew Carrey Show vs the entirety of Columbo! Ok not not really. But I sincerely would love if after a rewatch you guys picked like top 5 Columbo favorites, or each pick 2, and covered it. That was a fun listen.

Does anybody know what the hell this is? Short, very funny ‘behind scenes’ of young Spiely directing on the Universal lot while his crew bitch and moan. It is extremely well done, with feel of Funny or Die or Doc Now but doesn’t seem to be either? https://youtu.be/hLeeJqu2MRw?feature=shared

The Joan Crawford talk made me think of this recent, very silly Turner Classic Movies video https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDfKse1vJVJ/

I will. I like murder she wrote. I haven’t watch Columbo in over 20 years 😅

Ray

Tbh you should. It's really good.

The Night Gallery Pilot video appears to have been taken down. Does anyone have an alternative?

Darryl Bowen

As far as Columbos jurisdiction, he also gets involved in a case in England in season 2 and I'm currently watching an ep in season 4 where he's on a cruise ship and Dean Stockwell shows up for the second time as a different person

Scott Dillon

French Stewart's peak

I can neither confirm nor deny that you can find the ‘lost/Youtube deleted’ Spiely dystopian 1971 TV movie that Griffin talks about at the following link. (I’ll leave it there for a week or so…) https://tinyurl.com/2p8y75rj

“If the X-Men…FOUGHT Capcom…”

Ray

I was hoping for more columbo talk

Jon-Erik Means

Love gettin a healthy dose of Serling chatter in this one. Night Gallery is pretty spotty but I’d highly recommend eps ‘The Caterpillar’ and ‘Class of 99.’ Third season is atrocious but first two have some gems. Also, this is one of Guillermo del Toro’s favorite shows and his commentaries on the DVDs are great, well worth seeking out.

Blake Anderson

Euphorias pretty fuckin funny guys.

Darryl Bowen

In season 4 of Columbo for first time watch and really enjoying it

Randy Johnson

I'd recommend "Inside No. 9" as something recent that's successfully in the Night Gallery/Twilight Zone pocket with a sense of play instead of going full "Black Mirror" depress-o-fest. Check it out. You'll be glad you did.

Chas

This was a wild one

Amy Plitt

Columbo is SO good and has SO many fantastic actors playing antagonists throughout its run. Griffin especially should watch the one with John Cassavetes! BC boys do a Columbo Patreon series in 2025?????

Mickey Sheridan

Finally, Clockstoppers mentioned.

DAVID MENTIONED THE VIDEO GAME PODCAST AGAIN!

Blank Check with Griffin & David

Fixed

Jim Kopeny (Tankboy)

It was in my Apple podcast app earlier this morning and then disappeared when I tried to download it, so I reckon they needed to upload a new file or something. I’m sure it’ll be up later today. 🙂

Brian Kaufman

Fellow idiot here, can't get it to show up via the RSS feed; issue on the Patreon side?

I usually wait for a flight or a time where I can really indulge and I just said to myself “ur crazy if u think ur waiting” and I’m currently listening now
