This is the first episode of a new podcast dedicated to spending time talking about “The Strain” on FX. The first episode made it clear this would not be a chore. It certainly wouldn’t be as laborious as talking about “The Leftovers” on Reheated, though it’s really fun to talk about how bad that show can be. The Strain’s however was not bad. It was awesome and in this first episode covering, “Night Zero” we talk about how damn good it really was.
