This week Zach is joined Michael Bailey from From Crisis to Crisis: A Superman Podcast to discuss the one hundred seventy sixth episode of “Smallville,” “Metallo.”
They talk the many iterations of John Corben, the evolving love triangle between Lois, Clark and The Blur, Chloe being jealous (again), the one season of “Smallville” that Michael has never seen, and those well established Daily Planet key chains that every employee owns. You don’t have to go to our phone booth to listen to the latest Always Hold On To Smallville!
