24 Podcast – Educational Reviews of Jack Bauer’s Worst Days – 2GuysTalking Podcast Network

Crisis Negotiator Role Player Mike Wilkerson welcomes 24 Production Designer Joseph Hodges to discuss the behind the scenes details of one of the greatest "real-time" crime dramas to talk about what made the program so great. With a rotating series of Law Enforcement representatives bringing their perspective and knowledge to share more about what you see on-screen - there literally WAS and IS nothing like this program that was now released 25 years ago. Ready to understand the value, power and LEGEND of "24" on Fox, starring Kiefer Sutherland? Let's Get To it! There are few things that have gone undone on The 2GuysTalking Podcast Network. Somehow finding the reason and time to revisit the groundbreaking television show 24's first series of seasons before the original 24 Podcast launched (in the early 00's) has always been a bucket list item. The MISSION to initiate and get them done arrived in the form of a video from The Real Life Fake Wizard, discussing Hollywood's KILLING of Our Heroes, and then a clarion call to realize that if one cannot watch and be entertained, then one must MAKE THEIR OWN. We. Are. Doing. It. We are going back to Season 1, Hour 1, and looking at this groundbreaking program with not only the same great features, delivery mechanisms and FUN - but also including the unmatched perspective from 24's OWN PRODUCTION DESIGNER, Joseph Hodges. Joseph adds untold value to a program that burned a path in organized fandom 20 years ago and now returns to begin BUILDING THINGS WE WANT TO WATCH/TAKE IN as entertainment. If you're done with watching rushed storytelling, agenda-stuffed garbage and are tired of Hollywood killing YOUR heroes - then it's time to jump aboard the 24Podcast.Com effort and revel in real character developed, fevered, deliberate pace and grand storytelling - hour by hour as we navigate the first of Jack Bauer's Worst Days. This - is the 24 Podcast - our complete, detailed and always-educational review of Season 1, Hour 1 - 12am-1am on the Day of the California Presidential Primary...   The ultimate success for every podcaster – is FEEDBACK!
