Episode 059: The Bronze Age of Comics!
Not going to make a big fuss over a new episode(even though we should!). Suffice to say, we're back again, and this episode was a lot of fun. The Stan Lee reference obviously dates it, but still some very worthwhile discussion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Okay, guys, after a WAY too lengthy absence (which we are going to rectify), we now present our long-awaited Doctor Who Series 9 wrap-up, and our look ahead at Series 10.

Episode 053: The Hate Episode - Special Limited Star Wars Edition!!!
...Wherein Stratosphear completely loses his freakin' mind and castigates(look it up, fanboy) everybody's favorite franchise, Star Wars. Well, mostly the merchandising and marketing and...well, you get the idea. D-Dub mostly shrugs and says "okay", so as to not alienate what fans we have left....

Episode 046: It takes diff'rent actors to move the world!
You know that thing where a character on a show is played by more than one actor? Or their character is written off the show, only to be replaced by a different character(who basically fills the same role as the old one)? Strat and D-Dub make fine sport of this topic, and there are only two…

Episode 039: Time travel for the post-post-post modern geek!
They say that tangents are an occupational hazard when traveling through time, and boy if that's not what we did. I think we hit a new record for number of times getting off-topic, all while(strangely enough) seeming like we were staying ON topic. Just another example of a time travel paradox?…
