Public Axis #46: NDG Sci-Fest with Samson Portillo

Comedia A Go-Go's Public Axis

Public Axis walks among the cosplayers and sci-fi fans of the NDG Sci-Fest, a magnet for the geeks, dorks and nerds in the Central Texas area. A mighty show awaits you full of hype, dream movies and the age old telepathy vs. telekinesis debate.

Recorded at the Wonderland of the Americas on June 8th, 2013 with comic book superpal, Samson Portillo.

00:00 We soak in all the sights, sounds and smells of the NDG Sci-Fest and mildly test Samson's knowledge of comic book alter egos and Regan's ability to suppress his bully gene.

11:45 Yeah, Imma Look Into Dat! The ultimate video game hype machine is among us: E3 2013! Jess leads the discussion on hype with our first topic: Name something you were super hyped for in the past? Did it live up to the hype?

32:35 Dad's Corner(ed)! Larry's kids are all about the superhero movies, an exciting element to being a parent; sharing your life long dorkables with your loved ones. Speaking of superhero movies: What superhero movie should be made next and who should play them?

49:36 Hey, That's Not Funny! Regan's sparks talks of the Age Old Debate: Would you rather have the power of telepathy or telekinesis? And why? This article about an internet robot version of “stop hitting yourself” is the inspiration. Also, we toss in a bonus question: what superhero costume would you want to wear on a normal day?

1:03:46 Another fantastic podcast ends with another fantastic session of What We Learned Today. Enlighten yourself!

Stay tuned later this week for a special video filled with interviews with NDG Sci-Fest goers as well as the answers to our burning questions of the week!
