Radio without the listeners! This is the original TV Talk Machine, 167 episodes from the San Francisco Chronicle, 7 reunion episodes, a few from Tim's first Hollywood Reporter version, and his Colber interview. Here's what we know for sure: The TV Talk Machine podcast lives on another planet. The people who go there are pioneers. They are resilient against boredom and stupidity. They are savants. Because their minds are like high-functioning machines that seek out low culture but can not be damaged by the experience. Then they report back to Planet Taldar. Everything else we've gleaned is just government spin and propaganda. There's something happening here. What it is ain't exactly clear. But it's just brutal.
