Accountant and certified genius 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? Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean think!

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!

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!

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!

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!

Ambitious and young, Beth Chadwick (Susan Clark) must get out from the thumb of her domineering brother to live the life she desires badly, so she shoots him as he enters her bedroom, pretending that she thought it was an intruder. Of course, things aren't that easy for Beth, because Lieutenant Columbo is on the case, and it only takes a newspaper on the hall table to set him on Beth's trail. What did Steve and Sean think of this one? Listen in and find out!

In "Requiem for a Falling Star" (1973), when aging starlet Nora Chandler (Anne Baxter) has a motive for bumping off a gossip columnist but mistakenly kills her personal assistant instead, it becomes clear to Lieutenant Columbo that the death was a tragic murder-turned-accident...or is it? Is this one worthy of an Academy Award? Or should it be in the back pages of the newspaper? Listen in and find out what Steve and Sean thought!
