Tangential Giants Podcast

Join hosts Kareem, Ken, and Pat each week, bi-weekly or whenever there is an episode to be had. We"re looking to traverse comics, pop culture, current events, movies, tv shows, and even other podcasts while attempting not to go off on too many tangents. Our goal is to examine the annoyingly nuanced grey matter in-between-the-lines in serialized episodes, so sit back, pick a pod and try to stay focused.
