10x20 Prophecy
This week Zach is joined by Matt Truex from Lois & Clark'd: The New Podcasts of Superman and Anthony Desiato from Digging for Kryptonite to discuss the two hundred sixteenth episode of Smallville , “Prophecy." They talk the odd timing of doing a superpower switcheroo in the second to last episode of the series, Kara spending her final appearance teamed up with a character she's never met, a technological take on Starro, and of one of Smallville 's most infamous ideas and visuals: Marionette Ventures! The latest Always Hold On To Smallville is 800% more awesome! Check out Matt's work including Lois & Clark'd: The New Podcasts of Superman at The Daily Knockoff ! Check out Anthony and his podcasts including Digging for Kryptonite at Flat Squirrel Productions.
