An STVD podcast dating back to April of 2009 has been discovered — a true miracle since Scot and Dan have only known each other for three years! In this time capsule of preposterous opinions, we learn the lads had VERY different views and not-yet-crushed expectations about a number of TV shows and movies. The biggest shocker? These supposed disciples of Heisenberg weren’t ALWAYS the biggest BREAKING BAD fans, although that might’ve changed after watching the episode “Better Call Saul” – the focus of this improbable podcast.
