(2019-) (48 episodes / 7 appearances)
After launching The X-Cast, my aim from the beginning was always to produce a spin-off podcast about Millennium, Chris Carter’s other 90’s series; an incredibly dark, fascinating three-season experiment in pre-millennial angst focused around Lance Henriksen’s criminal profiler Frank Black. It is, on its day, on a par with or perhaps even better than The X-Files, and it’s massively under-discussed on podcasts. It took a few years of planning and development, but The Time Is Now finally began in 2019.
This is one I handed over to X-Cast guest & Patron, Kurt North, to run as showrunner and he’s done a great job putting the show together so far. I appear sporadically on the episodes of the show I love the most.
