Episode 69: The Bye-Bye Sky High I.Q. Murder Case (1977)
The Columbo Confab Podcast
Accountant Oliver Brandt (Theodore Bikel) is threatened with exposure by his business partner for embezzling funds from their clients. Brandt executes a Rube Goldberg-esque murder scheme to murder his colleague at the home of the Sigma Society, a club for individuals with remarkably high I.Q.'s. Brandt soon finds out he may not be the smartest man in the room when Columbo is assigned to the case. Is this episode as smart as a tack? Or is it as dumb as a post?

Episode 68: Murder Under Glass (1978)
The Columbo Confab Podcast
When affluent restaurant critic Paul Gerard (Louis Jourdan) finds himself in a pickle of a disagreement with the owner of a successful Italian restaurant, he kills the main by poisoning a bottle of wine. Columbo is hot on the case, and he's pretty sure Gerard is his murderer, but he can't figure out how the poison got into the bottle. Is this one a Michelin three star? Or is it as palatable as a gas station burrito? Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean think!

Episode 67: Playback (1975)
The Columbo Confab Podcast
Electronics engineer Harold van Wyke (Oskar Werner) murders his mother-in-law to retain his role in the family business and to cover up his extramarital affairs. When Columbo stumbles upon the crime scene, however, Van Wyke soon realizes that it's going to take more than just some fancy videotape equipment to outsmart the policeman. Is this one worthy of the top shelf at Blockbuster? Or will you find it in the bargain bin at Target? Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean think!

Episode 66: Swan Song (1974)
The Columbo Confab Podcast
In "Swan Song" (1974) country music artist Tommy Brown (Johnny Cash) is tired of being blackmailed by his domineering evangelical wife. He arranges a complicated murder scheme involving an airplane crash, some spiked coffee, and a parachute. Tommy's a nice fellow, despite his vices, but he keeps his cool when pursued by Lieutenant Columbo. Is this one worthy of the Grand Ole Opry? Or does it belong in the discount bin at Wal-Mart? Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean have to say!

Mrs. Columbo: Caviar with Everything (1979)
The Columbo Confab Podcast
It's time once again for a "Mrs. Columbo" discussion, and we promise this will be the last one! In "Caviar with Everything" (1979) Caterer Sybil (Claudette Nevins) bumps off her business partner with an overly complicated involving caviar and train tracks. Is this one a smooth Russian sampling? Or can you find it on the bottom shelf at the gas station? Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean think!
info_outlinePsychiatrist Dr. Eric Mason (Nicol Williamson) uses his dogs and his love of movie props to murder his best friend for revenge for his adulterous affair with Dr. Mason's late wife.

Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean have to say!
