    Great podcast, they do a podcast for each episode and sometimes have a guest on.

    I am doing a rewatch of the series and next day will listen to the corresponding episode.

    It's still a work in progress...

    Very interesting listen - especially Imperioli - very interesting guy.

    If it was just 'Christopher' doing it with a host I'd definitely listen religiously, but the fat lad is so overbearing and annoying that I have to turn it off after about 20 minutes.

    Yeah, I do get that, "Chris" is definitely more knowledgeable and interesting.

    Steve Schirripa has no filter! Complaining about people he didn't get on with in the business. Can be annoying but very entertaining. Imperioli keeps out of it.

    The backstage chat is very good and the great to hear the stories, especially about Tony Sirico. That guy has lived.

    The format is a good framework to move the series along but the best parts are the chats and stories and getting guests on.

    They were actually going to be doing the show live in Dublin on the night the Champions league final was originally scheduled, then Covid changed that.

    He's a bit moody. A lot of the guests seem to have a history with Michael and when they are reminiscing about the old days you can see Steve getting annoyed.

    I like Steve. He's a good foil to the more thoughtful and introspective imperioli. Bit rough at the start but ever since s2 it's been great. Look forward to it every week

    Think there’s been a row up in the camp. Egos rubbing up against each other at the end of the show today. Awful childish.

    This week’s show? If you’re talking about the t shirts it was clearly banter.

    I remember Steve Shirippa making an appearance on that gawd awful show PJ Gallagher did where he went to America as Jake Stephen's. He came across as a temperamental chap though it was probably staged to an extent.

    Poda Bing is the gold standard. Ideally Vic and Michael would be doing the retrospective together haha
