Breaking Mayberry
Breaking Mayberry is a classic TV podcast without the nostalgia-bait. Marty Schneider and Dan Ludwig take a hard look at the history of television, breaking down vintage favorites and cultural oddities from the 1950s to the early 00’s. We’re finding all the hidden ways TV impacted America’s psyche - and making fun of them. Watch us break Mayberry before it breaks us.
