My Bess friend, Matt Sizemore, joins the show this week to discuss the incredibly not-bleak episode featuring the great Bill Mumy in, “It’s a Good Life”!



This is Matt’s handwritten bio: Hello. My name is Matt or Matthew. I am a broadcaster, currently serving as a morning television anchor. I’ve done radio and voice-overs in the past as well. I’m also the bff of the podcast host. That makes me rad. I need to lift more weights.
