Here’s the latest episode of The Obsessive Viewer Podcast. We decided to do an extended potpourri episode since we haven’t done a proper potpourri in what seems like a while. We recorded for 2 hours but I got it edited down to an hour and a half. Don’t worry, though, I’ve saved all the stuff for a later podcast so you’ll hear it eventually. And it’s good, too!

Runtime: 1:35:15
Noticing a lack of general “potpourri” segments in recent episodes, the guys hit record and start talking. It’s a veritable hodgepodge (a podpodge, if you will) of topics spanning reactions to the Oscars, praise for True Detective, lamenting the February dreck at the cinema, disappointment in The Iceman, Star Wars Episode VII news and a healthy discussion of unhealthy writing in How I Met Your Mother.
