OV030 – A Nerdy Conversation with IndyPopCon's Chase Kahlo

Matt, Mike and Tiny are joined by Chase Kahlo, one of the people behind next May's IndyPopCon, Indianapolis' latest pop culture convention. The conversation was originally supposed to be focused on Peter Jackson's Tolkien adaptations but quickly became a more casual, nerdy conversation that covered everything from The Dark Tower, Star Wars and the Fantasy Genre as a whole to Game of Thrones, Ender's Game and, finally, The Hobbit. For the potpourri section, Matt revisits Pleasantville, Tiny talks about Lovelace and Mike shares news about the future of the Friday the 13th franchise.
