Summary
Welcome to the Weekend Program on RHAP! Each weekend, Josh Wigler and Antonio Mazzaro get together to talk about their view of the ever-shifting television landscape. It doesn’t matter if it’s a show from 2024, 1994, or 1924 — if it’s got something to do with TV, then Josh and Antonio are all over it.
In their debut podcast, Josh and Antonio reintroduce themselves to RHAP, having been away in the Post Show Recaps mines for the past decade. They discuss their own origins as TV obsessives, use a timely milestone in TV history as a lens to talk about the power of the medium, and debate the merits of the current streaming service era.
