Strictly Ballroom: Join host Jill Collister and Guest, Briel Pomerantz as cover one of the biggest heartbreaks losing a parent, specifically losing your dad and all the dad themes in the movie Strictly Ballroom. Strictly Ballroom is a 1992 Australian romantic comedy directed by Baz Luhrmann in his feature film debut. It stars Paul Mercurio and Tara Morice. Scott Hastings (Mercurio), plays a frustrated son of a family of ballroom dancers. Scott struggles to establish his personal style of dance to win the Pan-Pacific Grand Prix Dancing Championship, but his innovative and flashy "crowd-pleasing" steps are not considered "strictly ballroom." He finds a new dance partner in Fran and that's when the magic happens.

Galaktacus Jim Kettner, John Mihaly, and Scott Brown The name Galaktacus originates from a youthful mispronunciation of a classic comic book character best known for eating planets. Before all of the blockbuster film franchises and the non-stop spoiler-filled internet coverage there was limited space to openly discuss such topics let alone their proper pronunciations. ("Is it Mag-neato or Mag-net-o?") So with that in mind, what started as a long-running, inside joke has now become a word that best defines the spirit of this podcast—looking at comic books, sci-fi, film, television, music, literature and gaming from the perspective of individuals who have grown up in this evolving "nerd culture" and are amazed by the ways in which it has taken over the mainstream. Galaktacus attempts to eschew that "angry nerd" character and celebrate the good, the bad and the weird that comes along with this current golden age of pop culture. So let the devouring begin!
