23d ago36:30

36:30

Our Season 1 ends with a blast from the past, in the form of the 2014 time travel flick, X-Men: Days of Future Past. We'll take a deepish dive into the world of comic book movies, while dancing around the implied question: "is Josh having never read a single comic book an even greater geek-cred scarlet letter than Craig having never watched Deep Sp…

The Orville 29:14

16d ago29:14

29:14

On the penultimate episode of Season One we're talking about The Orville, Seth McFarlane's actually-really-good Star Trek pastiche/vanity project that has been compared favorably with contemporary Trek (mostly in good faith, but sometimes not so much). On the way, we'll pay tribute to some of the other great sci-fi parodies that walked so The Orvil…

Cowboy Bebop 23:45

23d ago23:45

23:45

This week, a conversation about the beloved late-90s Japanese space western Cowboy Bebop exposes just how completely unqualified our distinguished hosts are to talk about anime. Fortunately, that's never stopped them before, and it's not going to stop them now. Enjoy!By Josh & Craig

Star Trek: Discovery 30:44

1M ago30:44

30:44

On today's episode, we stand resolute against Nerd Rage to take a balanced look at an ambitious show that got plenty of things right, plenty more wrong, and ultimately may not have been written for crusty old Trek fans like us in the first place. Later we'll ask the question: If Star Trek: Picard gave Jean Luc a chance to process his trauma, surely…

Fallout 24:00

2M ago24:00

24:00

This week it's Fallout--a show about a fictional apocalypse, brought to you by the company that will probably bring about the real one. We sing the praises of the great Walton Goggins, Craig makes a surprisingly coherent comparison to the film Amadeus, and Josh reveals himself to know only slightly more about video games than he does about comics.…

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 31:01

2M ago31:01

31:01

On today’s episode, Craig stands in for all the 80s and 90s kids who loved TNG but never got into DS9, while Josh makes the case that it’s never too late to start watching the BEST STAR TREK SERIES EVER (FIGHT ME). Later, we compare Trills favorably to both the Goa’uld and to John Malkovich’s head portal. It's a very special episode (but not a "Ver…

Highlander 21:06

2M ago21:06

21:06

This week we're testing the limits of what we can call sci-fi with the 1986 Connery classic, Highlander, but apparently a sequel retcons that the Highlanders are aliens (?) so we're probably good. Also, this movie *probably* isn't a prequel to The Rock, but we still spend a significant chunk of the episode talking about it 🤷🏻‍♂️…

Total Recall 23:28

3M ago23:28

23:28

This week we talk about the great 1990 Verhoeven/Schwarzenegger film Total Recall, plus another bombshell revelation about Craig's Trek-nerd bona fides (or lack thereof?)By Josh & Craig

1
Misfits 23:51

3M ago23:51

23:51

Craig can't resist a subversive, crude, anti-superhero story, which means the 2009 U.K. sci-fi dramedy series Misfits is right up his alley. Josh does his best to go off on every tangent possible, but to no avail; the appeal of Misfits is undeniable.By Josh & Craig

Dark Matter 31:36

3M ago31:36

31:36

On today's episode we're talking about Dark Matter, yet another Syfy show that was cancelled on a tantalizing cliffhanger. Seriously, why do they keep doing that?!By Josh & Craig

Reign of Fire 26:32

3M ago26:32

26:32

This week, Matthew McConaughey teams up with Batman and the 300 guy to defend Apocalypseburg from a bunch of wanna-be Smaugs. It's the critically-panned-but-beloved-by-many (podcast hosts named Craig), 2002 dragon flick Reign of Fire!By Josh & Craig

For All Mankind 27:40

3M ago27:40

27:40

This week we talk about the Ronald D. More joint For All Mankind, and envision a world in which two of the world's biggest corporate rivals join forces to turn a batshit fan theory into reality.

The Boys 28:11

This week our hosts officially give up all pretense of not having swears on the pod, and Josh gives up all pretense of knowing literally anything about comic books.By Josh & Craig

Star Trek: Voyager 30:35

30:35

The fellas get sucked back into Charted Space for this week's ep with the shocking revelation that Craig has never watched Star Trek: Voyager.

Freejack 23:57

4M ago23:57

23:57

Today we're talking about Freejack, the 1992 time-travel-body-snatching dystopia, set in the futuristic hellscape of the year 2009; a film whose predictions about the future of the United States included FaceTime and a shotgun-wielding nun (so basically they were two for two).

The Expanse 29:54

4M ago29:54

29:54

Today we're talking about the TV series The Expanse, based on a series of novels whose similarity to Game of Thrones is probably just a coincidence. We'll also ask the question: did Jeff Bezos not know the show was anti-capitalist, or was he just too rich to care?By Josh & Craig

Brazil 20:07

5M ago20:07

20:07

This week it's Brazil, Terry Gilliam's dystopian comedy from 1985. We also delve into Josh's sordid past in public school music education, have a totally unpretentious discussion of Franz Kafka, and Craig talks about Michael Stipe more than he should, but not nearly as much as he wants to.By Josh & Craig

Farscape 19:22

5M ago19:22

19:22

It's Muppets in Space! But not the one you're thinking of. This week, we talks about Farscape, the bizarre (and immensely entertaining) Henson-produced show from the late 90s. Later, Josh goes to nerd therapy, and we spoil the passing of major celebrity for the listeners who have spent the last 8 years in Rura Penthe.…

Sunshine 18:02

5M ago18:02

18:02

In this week's episode, Craig fanboys about Sunshine, the 2007 Danny Boyle film described by some as "Event Horizon, but good." Craig also reveals a particularly unhinged conspiracy theory he has about the actor Alan Ruck,By Josh & Craig

Stargate Atlantis 24:33

5M ago24:33

24:33

In our inaugural episode, Josh makes the pitch for Stargate Atlantis, the polarizing second installment in the Stargate TV franchise; Craig learns about Aquaman's nerdy past, and we share some practical life advice from one Mr. Wesley Snipes.By Josh & Craig
