I began the show talking about the itch I feel from time to time. No, not THAT itch—the shopping itch. It’s the reason why guys may go a little overboard when it comes to our hobbies. I reminisce on a couple of old, but great, video games. I wish I could say I’m finally done [...]

Jersey Shore is back! Oh yeah! And I don’t understand MTV’s, or most cable network’s, policy when it comes to posting shows online. I discuss my rather bad experience with an online toy retailer. Don’t shop there. I discuss the oldie John Constantine, Hellblazer: Fear & Loathing (Garth Ennis, Steve Dillion). It’s like the preview [...]

I stop myself from going on one rant by covering the new and surprisingly good, Thundercats show. Then I spend a few minutes going over my excellent, but out of print goody—Spawn Origins Deluxe Vol. 1. Unfortunately, I must eventually move on to Fables: War & Pieces (Bill Willingham, Mark Buckingham). It’s the most anti-climatic [...]

It’s a short show this week. However, I do spend a few minutes giving my spoiler free thoughts on Captain America: The First Avenger. It’s good, but also disappointing, and not in the way you think a comic book host might think. I end the show by covering the prematurely canceled series, Air: A History [...]

Good morning everyone! I delve into talking about my limited experience with the overrated Mass Effect 1. I also compare the differences between Mass Effect and Dragon Age Origins. Because of some tiny convention this week, I believe it’s called San Diego Comic Con, there’s plenty of news. I go over the panels I wasn’t [...]

I’m back! I talk about the recent changes in Netflix subscriptions and how it’s not that big a deal. But people like to whine about things being taken away anyway. Also, Jackie Chan Adventures is on their stream so you should watch it. Hi-yah! If you’re going to San Diego Comic Con, check out the [...]

It wouldn’t be an Independence Day weekend without a Michael Bay movie. So I give my spoil-free thoughts of Transformers: Dark (Side) of the Moon and about the trilogy in general. Even though I’m a HUGE Transformers fan, my thoughts are not as favorable as you might think. I then cover Fables: Sons of Empire [...]

I lack energy this week and my voice is gone because of the San Jose kotei. As much fun as I had, it may be my last one. I talk about it and me taking a break from the collectible card game, Legend of the Five Rings. I go over some old school Vertigo by [...]

Just when I thought there was nothing to talk about on this hot, summer day, I find something I’ve been meaning to watch for ages—Never Sleep Again! If you’re a fan of the A Nightmare on Elm Street movies, you should watch it. If you’re not a fan, but into movies and the going ons [...]

It is a fine day as I celebrate the Dallas Mavericks beating the Miami Heat! Not one, indeed. I dissect why the Mavericks were the better team. To be honest, I picked the Heat to win in six, but was hoping for the Mavs. There’s one piece of news this week as I talk about [...]

Before I talk about comics, I break down my Top 5 Cartoons of all time. Woo-hoo! There’s been some kind of news with DC this week, but I have a hard time remembering it. I think it’s big. Whatever it is, it makes me incoherent. I move on to Fables: Arabian Days (And Nights) by [...]

This is a short episode this week, but I do cover a lot of ground like the UFC, Majesty, organic food, and culture differences. Listen as my voice gets progressively worse throughout the episode. There was a lot of editing done. I soldier through and cover The Vinyl Underground: Watching the Detectives (Si Spencer, Simon [...]

It’s been a few years since I’ve regularly watched Smallville, but of course, I had to watch the series finale. I “spoil” that. The finale was so bad an episode that I decided to make my own Smallville finale with complete sound effects. How would you have done the last episode? I cover the rather [...]

I recently watched both Thor and Fast Five so you know I have to talk about them. Don’t worry, I don’t spoil them, but if you haven’t seen them, you should. And stay past the credits, this includes Fast Five. There’s one sad, but unsurprising news this week as I say goodbye to FOX’s Human [...]

It’s that time of the year again to talk about the NBA playoffs—playoffs! I talk about how dirty the Lakers were and got swept by the Dallas Mavericks. However, I spend most of the show talking about comics. Because I’m me, I mispronounce things, more than I usually do when I begin my journey to [...]

If you think I couldn’t tie Osama Bin Laden’s death with the rising prices in vending machines, you’d be wrong. Before I get political, I talk about Dave and Buster’s and how I’m a Spin-N-Win master! Oddly enough that gets me to talk about unhealthy couples. I do remember to talk about comics by covering [...]

I celebrate this 100 episode by dragging a few people on to talk about the Y: The Last Man series—spoilers and all. We also stray off topic because that’s the way I run my show. Thanks again to Karen and Rob for joining me and for you listeners that have stuck with me for 100 [...]

I get serious this episode, at least for a minute or two, when I talk about my book, Catalyst: The Passage of Hellsfire. So please, buy my book if you want to support the show and me. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. I then talk about the awesome board game I picked up—Munchkin Quest! I [...]

If you haven’t seen Only the Strong, you should. It was an awesomely cheesy, early 90s movie that’s streaming on Netflix. That way, you’ll know what I’m talking about. I move on talking about the good and bad of Bioware’s new game, Dragon Age 2. There’s more rumors than news this week, but you take [...]

I recently signed up for Netflix, and spend a few minutes talking about it and all the movies I’ve watched—namely, romantic comedies. There’s a little bit of news from Emerald Comic-Con. It’s nothing exciting but it is “news.” I go over Y: The Last Man—Whys and Wherefores (Brian K. Vaughan, Pia Guerra). I talk about [...]
