The Deep Dive Podcast Family!

We started small in 2018..and stayed that way!

It began as a way to scan the depths of streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, etc. to find those hidden gems buried within their vast libraries of content.

Not long after, we branched out with other content like:

• The Deep Dive Microcast: A short form dive into a specific topic that we find interesting!

• Mysteries of the Deep: A look at Hollywood myths, legends and oddities.

• Pilot Error: All TV shows have a pilot episode. We'll take a look at the ones that didn't quite take off!

• Hollywood Hype: A look at the wild, wacky gimmicks used by movie studios to get you into theaters!
