TV Guidance Counselor

Ken Reid

Booking Overview

This is a weekly interview podcast centered on television-guide listings, nostalgic viewing choices, and pop-culture history, with recurring guests including comedians, authors, academics, and niche media creators. Agencies could credibly pitch television historians, pop-culture authors, comedians, academic commentators, and creators with relevant books or projects; booking difficulty is low because the show regularly features accessible professionals and personal contacts rather than high-profile celebrities.
