They talk the blatant The Hangover rip-off, Zatanna putting the crew in this situation with no warning and then not even bothering to show up to clean up her mess, Emil becoming a literal overnight sensation as an Elvis impersonator...and don't miss a special voice note from friend, listener and patron Dallas Hernandez during the second commercial break!

Smallville Torch Exclusive #3 - David Kocher

This week Zach is joined Michael Bailey from From Crisis to Crisis: A Superman Podcast to discuss the two hundred tenth episode of Smallville, “Masquerade." They talk Clark putting on the glasses and starting to establish a true secret identity, what that means for this version of the character, the Smallville's (not very faithful) interpretation of Desaad, and the uninspired Date Night A-plot. You don't need microvision to listen to the latest Always Hold On To Smallville!
