S02E19 - The Dick Tracy Specials
<p>On a bittersweet episode of Network Special, Zachariah the OG returns to send us off in style! That's right, this is the last and final episode of Network Special ever! We watch two very strange Warren Beatty specials that aired on TCM (reluctantly I assume) which he created all to retain the rights to Dick Tracy in a move that will not pan out the way he hopes. Tune in to hear us laugh and laugh and laugh one last time! Oh, and there might even be one more special guest but you'll have to listen all the way to the end to find out. No cheating and fast-forwarding!!</p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcDZiuyvw64js-zvBe9h_mTseycBaaZkE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">WATCH</a></p><p><strong>Published by Golden Ox Studios</strong> - <a href="https://goldenoxstudio.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://goldenoxstudio.com/</a></p><p><strong>SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST:</strong> <a href="https://www.networkspecialpodcast.com/listen" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.networkspecialpodcast.com/listen</a></p><p><strong>SOCIAL MEDIA</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/networkspecial" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/networkspecial</a></p><p><a href="http://instagram.com/networkspecial" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://instagram.com/networkspecial</a></p><p><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@networkspecial" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tiktok.com/@networkspecial</a></p>

This HBO movie takes you deep into the Satanic Panic of the 80s; focusing on the McMartin Preschool and the allegations of child abuse that turned out to be one big crock of YOU KNOW WHAT. Also, tune in to hear all about Nathan's past as he remembers what it was like to be caught up in the fever!</p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcDZiuyvw64js-zvBe9h_mTseycBaaZkE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">WATCH</a></p><p><strong>Published by Golden Ox Studios</strong> - <a href="https://goldenoxstudio.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://goldenoxstudio.com/</a></p><p><strong>SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST:</strong> <a href="https://www.networkspecialpodcast.com/listen" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.networkspecialpodcast.com/listen</a></p><p><strong>SOCIAL MEDIA</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/networkspecial" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/networkspecial</a></p><p><a href="http://instagram.com/networkspecial" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://instagram.com/networkspecial</a></p><p><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@networkspecial" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tiktok.com/@networkspecial</a></p>
