March 19 The FULL Mr. Show Experience: First (101 - "The Cry of a Hungry Baby")
A different kind of sketch comedy show with less budget than the Fraggles that seems timeless and dated all the same.

March 18 Cordkillers 592: The Streaming App Trap

March 12 The FULL Lost Experience: Last (618 - "The End")
This is a great ending episode, complete with interesting flashback methods, enough story to keep us in the know, and just enough mystery to keep us wanting to know more.

March 03 Cordkillers 590: Paul Anka’s Vegas Bid
Paramount’s sweetened offer for Warner Bros. Discovery spooked Netflix into an immediate exit, turning the “bidding war” into a one-horse race. Meanwhile, streaming’s arms race keeps rolling with subscriber updates, crackdowns, and a cable mega-merger getting an FCC green light.

February 25 Cordkillers 589: Gold Zone, Cold Zone
Milan-Cortina gave NBCU a big Winter Olympics win, and “Gold Zone” proved the whip-around format still rules. Meanwhile, streaming keeps getting weirder - from boxing rematches at The Sphere to vertical “microdramas” outpacing major apps on phones.
