Dodge Intrepid Reviewed on Beaver County Online!

Beaver County Online is a hot new blog chronicling, and reviewing, all the great things the county has to offer. This week, they've posted a fantastic review of Dodge Intrepid and the Pages of Time!

Local writer Jason Panella offers up a great critique of the show, while also calling on today's youth to explore the lost art of pulpy radio adventure:
While there’s a wide-eyed sense of wonder about the radio show, it’s written with tongue rooted in cheek.

The interaction between the supporting cast is my favorite thing — Mike and James have created a world so intricate that minor characters like monomaniacal newspaper editor Ted Brubaker or Dodge’s pathetically inept grandfather Edsel Intrepid feel like real people.
