Podcast to Check Out: The Riverdale Podcast

I'm always looking for new podcasts to get off iTunes and play in the background during work and/or at the gym. A couple weeks ago, I discovered an Archie Comics-themed podcast that I really enjoy called The Riverdale Podcast. The podcasts are run by an Archie fan named Jonathan Merrifield and each one has a basic three-point schedule: 1. His favorite Archie Comics (past or present) that week; 2. Archie-related news; and 3. Upcoming releases.

I reviewed the podcast series earlier this week and, low and behold(!), Jonathan read my iTunes review on his latest podcast! Check it out:
I loved this podcast! I grew up reading Archie comics and have, over the past couple years, fallen in love with Archie all over again. Like Jonathan, LIFE WITH ARCHIE has become my favorite Archie book and one of my favorite five monthly comic books overall.

I appreciate Jonathan's love for all thing Archie and his knowledge about past creators and upcoming events. I think he does a great job of avoiding lengthy digressions and keeping each podcast limited to roughly 12-20 minutes. Just enough to get caught up on this week's Archie offerings and upcoming news, but not too lengthy.

Good job with this podcast. I've subscribed and look forward to future episodes!
I'm glad that Jonathan like the review. I meant every word. I encourage you to check out The Riverdale Podcast. It gets released every Saturday.
