Mike, Kevin & Bill in Podcasts

We try to stay within our wheelhouse here at Satellite News, so normally wouldn’t mention a side project by one of the non-MST3K RiffTrax guys (much as we love Conor) but the MST3K guys can be heard on these so…
RiffTrax’s Conor Lastowka is highly amused by poorly written Wikipedia entries, and has a blog — entitled “Citation Needed” — in which he mocks said entries.

He has recently begun a podcast based on the blog and has done two installments. Mike appears in episode 1 and Bill and Kevin do a bit in episode 2.
Enjoy.

Apparently for no particular reason, a blog at “Denver Westworld” (is robotic Yul Brynner the editor?) looks at some of their favorite “best of” MST3K compilation videos on YouTube.
