Paul Maki, self-proclaimed Idjit, makes episode-by-episode reviews of television shows. An eclectic mix of short run shows, animated, and older television is reviewed along with biographic tidbits, cultural artifacts, and general weird stuff.
This file is a doozy, if you’ve heard Really Big Things on Dog Days 2022, you’ve hear all of this and it is skippable. If you are a member of Bad Altitude Trivia Team or anyone else new here, this might help make sense of the coming Dog Days of Advent content.

Paul is looking at The Rockford Files Season One Episode 10, The Dexter Crisis. He tries to decide if the situation is in fact a crisis, takes time out to give a brief bio of Bing Russell, and wonders about automobiles of the 1970’s. He also takes a look at an 18th century porcelain manufacturer, because that’s just the kind of variety this podcast presents.
