In a change of course to enable us to improve our supernatural television cred, we will be viewing the pilot episode of Supernatural and reporting back next week.

Episode 1 Introductory Podcast

In this first podcast, we've laid out our approach to future podcasts and hopefully given you some insight into our scifi/supernatural sensibilities. It is, however, a fluid project, which I'm certain will be tweaked as we progress. We hope you like it and will consider returning for future podcasts. As I mentioned in a previous post, we knew there would be some audio issues with this first show, but felt it important to get it out there anyway knowing improvements would follow quickly. Please send us your comments and/or suggestions; we'd love to hear from you.
