To celebrate the miniseries turning 20 (!) this year, HBO is putting together a podcast talking about the show. It'll go through the series episode by episode and the first two shows drop on Sept. 9th. It's hosted by Rog Bennett (of soccer's Men in Blazers fame). I'm really looking forward to it and will probably try to watch an episode of the series each week as it coincides with the podcast episodes.

(I had this on another BoB thread, but it might get more discussion on its own new thread.

I worked Tues-Fri and still remember this conversation:

"Episode 1 and 2 were perfect. Did you see them? Hey, look a plane crashed into the world trade center..."

Binged both of these while working on some writing this morning. Really, really good stuff. Tom Hanks in episode 1 and Ron Livingston (Lewis Nixon) in episode 2 relayed some absolutely amazing stories about the series and history behind it.

Im beyond excited for this. I want to go back and rewatch the episodes in advance of a listen and need to finish white lotus (and the second half of last night's usmnt game) first.
