Last year, I wrote about DC TV Podcasts and their podcast marathon to benefit the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University. This year, they’re at it again. Same superpowered do-gooding, different charitable cause.
When it first formed, DC TV Podcasts was made up of Quiver: The Green Arrow Podcast, The Flash Podcast, Legends of Gotham, and Supergirl Radio, which I co-hosted for a year. Now, there are two new podcasts in the family: The Legends of Tomorrow Podcast and the DC Movies Podcast!
And on Saturday, June 11th, these awesome DC geeks will be banding together to raise funds for an organization that Superman himself is proud of: the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation, which is dedicated to curing spinal cord injuries and providing support and care for those who are currently suffering.
Now, we think all of these podcasts are awesome, but we’d be lying if we didn’t say that we have a special place in our hearts for Supergirl Radio. First, I mean …Â Supergirl. Come on! But more than that, not only did I co-host the podcast for a year, but taking over for me with the lovely Rebecca Johnson is TMS’ own Weekend Editor, Carly Lane, and TMS Contributor, Morgan Glennon! So, if you want to listen to some of TMS’ favorite ladies talking about one of our favorite female superheroes, you should definitely check out their slot during the marathon at the very least!
There’s also going to be a DC TV Podcasts: Assemble show wrapping it all up, where you get to hear hosts from each of the podcasts get together to banter about our favorite DC shows! It should be a fun afternoon, and it’s all for a great cause!
Their goal for the fundraiser is $1000. Check out the official press release below for more information on how you can listen in and donate if you’re able:
