The Blasters & Blades PodcastIn this episode, we sit down with military sci-fi author and Air Force veteran Tyler Burnworth to talk about his pulse-pounding new novel, Portal Raiders.

For fans of military grit mixed with stargate exploration, Tyler pulls back the curtain on how he crafts elite expeditionary combat units, translates his real-world military background into tactical space warfare, and builds an unforgiving universe where the greatest threat might be wearing the face of an ally.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastWe’ve got another #RetroMovieReview episode, a blast from the past! In the summer of 1998, cinema was locked in a battle of the space rocks, but while Deep Impact brought the drama, Armageddon brought the absolute spectacle. Today, we are looking back at the film that came to define peak “Bayhem.” We discuss the incredible ensemble cast, the movie's relentless pacing, and how its hyper-stylized visual language shaped action blockbusters for the next decade. Does the emotional weight still land, or is it completely overshadowed by the sheer 90s excess?

The Blasters & Blades PodcastWe’ve got our #Retro #MovieReview episode for your eyeballs today! Dust off your fairy dust and brace yourselves for the ultimate '80s fantasy trip. This week, we are stepping into Ridley Scott’s beautifully chaotic 1985 cult classic, Legend. We are talking about Tom Cruise in a chainmail tunic, Mia Sara’s iconic gothic transformation, and Rob Bottin’s mind-blowing practical makeup effects that gave us the definitive cinematic Devil. Join us as we debate whether this film is a misunderstood masterpiece of dark folklore or just a magnificent, glitter-drenched mess. This was an awesome movie and a fun chat, so what are you waiting for?

The Blasters & Blades PodcastFor over a century, a secret military unit successfully hid the existence of the undead from the public. But when the outbreak finally breaks containment, the world crumbles. In The Dying of the Light series, award-winning author Jason Kristopher crafts a sweeping, thirty-year post-apocalyptic saga where the military responds with competent grit, the infected evolve into terrifyingly intelligent threats, and humanity's ultimate enemy proves to be itself. Called “the best since World War Z,” this character-driven epic explores the crushing cost of survival and the fragile bonds that hold us together when the world goes dark.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastFrom the mild-mannered reporter hiding superpowers to the runaway royalty passing as a commoner, speculative fiction is obsessed with secret selves. But why are we so captivated by characters who wear a mask? In this panel discussion, our guests unmask the “Hidden Identity” trope across sci-fi, fantasy, and superhero fiction. We’ll explore the deep psychological toll of leading a double life, the delicious tension of near-miss discoveries, and the ultimate, high-stakes fallout when the truth finally comes to light. Join us as we look at how hiding who you are can protect the world—or burn it entirely to the ground. This was a fun interview, so check out this episode.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastBefore there was science fiction, there was mythology: tales of cosmic battles, fickle deities, and the divine laws governing humanity. But how do modern writers breathe new life into ancient faiths without reducing them to mere aesthetic backdrops? Join our panel of authors and worldbuilders as we explore the intersection of ancient theology and speculative fiction. From resurrecting forgotten pantheons in urban fantasy to projecting ancient rituals onto distant, spacefaring civilizations, we’ll discuss how to handle sacred texts with respect, the line between cultural appreciation and appropriation, and why humanity remains eternally fascinated by the divine.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastComing off the heels of Buffy and Firefly, expectations were massive for Joss Whedon's next television venture. Today, we look back at Dollhouse with a modern lens to see how its terrifying themes of identity, corporate greed, and human exploitation hold up. We dive into the profound existential dread of the series, the incredible "Epitaph" episodes that completely flipped the genre on its head, and why the show’s central technology feels even more relevant in our current era of AI and tech ethics. Was Dollhouse simply ahead of its time, or did its heavy themes buckle under network constraints? Grab your chair and tune in.

The Blasters & Blades Podcast“Everybody relax, I’m here.” This week, we’re hopping into the Pork-Chop Express and driving straight into the subterranean neon underworld of Chinatown. That’s right… we are reviewing John Carpenter's absolute masterpiece of 80s cheese, Big Trouble in Little China! We’re breaking down why Jack Burton is the greatest “action hero who is actually the sidekick” in cinematic history, the incredible practical effects, and how this wild mashup of kung fu, ancient sorcery, and American truck-driver swagger ever got greenlit.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastFrom the soaring epics of modern fantasy to the distant, alien ruins of far-future sci-fi, creators have always looked backward to build worlds moving forward. But how do you successfully translate the majesty, mythos, and complexity of ancient human civilizations into speculative worlds? In this panel discussion, our guests explore how real-world history—from Mesopotamian city-states to Mesoamerican astronomy—inspires the politics, magic systems, and technologies of our favorite fictional universes. Join us as we discuss the fine line between creative inspiration and lazy stereotypes, and how the deep past continues to shape the future of storytelling.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastFrom the hunger-driven districts of Panem to the red-dusted mines of Mars, speculative fiction has always been a fertile breeding ground for rebellion. But what does it actually take to topple an empire on the page? Join our panel of authors and worldbuilders as we dissect the anatomy of fictional revolutions. We’ll explore how to build believable oppressive regimes, the logistics of underground resistance movements, and the moral gray areas of fighting for freedom. From sci-fi cyberpunk uprisings to epic fantasy peasant revolts, this discussion will examine how speculative fiction mirrors our real-world struggles for justice—and what happens after the rebels win the throne.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastToday, we are hanging out with veteran game designer Darrin Drader (Wizards of the Coast, Paizo, Mongoose Publishing) to talk about his highly anticipated new Kickstarter project. Built from the ground up on the familiar 5E engine, Daring & Dread strips away the “theme park feel” of modern systems to bring back actual stakes, dangerous math, and the gritty, high-octane flavor of the golden era of roleplaying games. We’re diving into his 25-year design pedigree, how he's re-engineering combat to make every single dice roll matter, and what players can expect from this brand-new, standalone fantasy system.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastWhat happens to humanity when we leave civilization behind? This week, our panel ventures out past the safety of the perimeter to explore the concept of the frontier in sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. From the lawless outer rims of distant galaxies to the monster-infested borders of uncharted magical wilderness, we are dissecting why the “edge of the map” remains the ultimate testing ground for the human spirit. Join us as we discuss the grit, the isolation, and the terrifying freedom that can only be found when you cross the line into the untamed unknown. This was a fun interview, so check out this episode.
