Trek West 5 - A Television Podcast

Well, the long drought is finally over. TrekWest5 has returned, and Peter and I are discussing "The Good Place!" However, due to COVID-19, the podcast takes place over Zoom rather than in person - so no fancy microphones, audio quality is sub-par, and we didn't really do any edits - but we hope you guys all enjoy the return regardless! I'm not going to try and capture the rating we gave for the episodes in TrekWest5 (Coronavirus Edition) #1: Welcome, everything is fine! This podcast covers episodes 1-4 of The Good Place, Season 1. Various topics discussed in this podcast include:     What has happened to Peter and Joey since the last podcast     Joey's Culture Corner: Defending Your Life     How has the pandemic affected Joey and Peter?     The Netflix Voltron - Possible content for a future podcast     Joey's adventures trying to introduce The Good Place to his wife and children     Why Peter's wife isn't watching The Good Place with us     Music Intro: Oh, The Places You'll Go by I Fight Dragons Direct MP3 Download RSS Feed Subscribe Using iTunes If you have something to say then we welcome your comments below, or feel free to email us at [email protected], twitter us at hashtag TrekWest5 (Gosh, I sure hope Peter is still watching that one...), or leave us a voicemail at 801-788-4913.
