Season 1 Character Deep Dive with Sarah and Ben

The first season of Chicago Heroes has come to an end. While television's #1 show is off the air, Sarah and Ben break in a new feature called the "Deep Dive." This week's topic is Character. Watch (listen) as your hosts dive in and sink to a new low.

Season One Production Deep Dive with Sarah and Ben

Sarah and Ben continue their between-the-seasons foray into what makes television's #1 show tick. This week they deal with all the elements of production design that come together to make Chicago Heroes such a perfect show (and the perfect fodder for this award-winning podcast).

Season 2 Preview with Alex Collyard

Fetch your trousers out of the laundry basket, reach into the pocket, fish out your claim check, head to the pawn shop, talk to the guy, demand that he tell you where your television is, scream at him "what do you mean you sold off my TV, I thought had 90 days," throw an old radio through the front window to distract him, grab some other poor sucker's TV set from behind the counter, run out of the shop, go back home, and plug it in. Why? Because Chicago Heroes is television's #1 show and it's almost back on the air. Sarah and Ben welcome Phil Lip da Psychic (Alex Collyard) onto this week's episode of the podcast to predict what the coming season has in store.

Season 2 Fast 2 Preview with Alex Collyard

On a high-quality, professional podcast, the production team doesn't just record one long episode and cut it into two pieces and pretend it's two separate episodes. And neither did Sarah and Ben. That said, if you haven't yet listened to the first part of the Season 2 preview with Phil Lip da Psychic (Alex Collyard), you'll want to check that out before you tune into this installment, in which the crew finishes up their extensive preview of the next season of television's #1 show, Chicago Heroes!
