This week Zach is joined by Matthew Rocca to discuss the one hundred forty sixth episode of “Smallville,” “Traveler.” We talk all things Lionel (hair, motivations, character arc), how Veritas fits into the established continuity of the series, Patricia Swann, and even some Chlois! The latest Always Hold On To Smallville will bring great change to the Earth!
