Where’s The Tragedy?

Dear Gene, Roger, & King Bee, Keep up the great work on the podcast! I have gained so much value in watching each episode by listening to your guys’ commentary and predictions every week. Some ideas to bounce off you guys: Point 1) Plot hole w/ Dr. Manhattan falling in...

Another Superman Reference

Hey guys Andy here, I found your Watchmen podcast through a friend and its great. Its fun hearing everyone differing opinions. I am currently going through your back log of episodes on West World to brush up on that show before season 3 start next year. Back to Watchmen… I...

I have two comments about last Sunday’s episode. First, Gene, when you pronounce the title of the episode, you read it as A God Walks Into a Bar. This would obviously allude to the opening of the episode and also connects to multiple layers of The Watchmen universe – it...
