Folks, we lost an icon, a hero, a great human being and part of my childhood this week. Actor Kevin Conroy passed away at 66 from a fight with cancer this week and Batman will never sound the same. He was the quint-essential dark knight. Not just his voice, the way he embodied the character and gave us all a voice to hear when we read comics. He will be forever missed. So, looking at DCEU as a whole, the creative mind in charge is now James Gunn. Do you think he's the best person for the job? An...

Is your fridge loaded with condiments like mine? My entire door is packed with hot sauce and BBQ sauces and as we will learn, none of them might need refridgeration. It seems like the shelf-life for these products is long enough that they can stay out, in a cupboard or on a counter. Wherever you need them! There are a lot of items that we are accustomed to storing a certain way, maybe we don't need to? Make sure while you're excited for the next installment of the MCU that you set aside an hour ...

They found the remains of a vampire in Poland this week and we are noticing a trend of how serious the threat of a vampire was taken in the 18th Century versus how sexy we treat vampires in the 21st Century. Since remains are being unearthed, maybe it's time we stop fetishizing and taking them more seriously? or not? We ask you guys to show your support and we could use your help.

Let's talk about our love for Weird Al and Daniel Radcliffe and how we feel the casting is perfect for the Weird Al biopic heading to ROKU this year. What is ROKU? What is a biopic and does it need to be factual? Obviously, when Weird Al Yankovic is involved, some parody needs to happen. We are excited to see the genre turned upside down and facts distorted, openly - not just, to save someone's professional image. If you're enjoying yourself, let a friend know we've got a good podcast happening ...

An oppressed section of our society is standing up and having their voice heard.

Disney+ has finally surpassed Netflix in subscriber count, which is big news for nerds like us. In other, more very important news, the former President, Donald Trump's Florida home was raided by the FBI and along with a list of National security threats that were stolen from the capitol, they found nuclear secrets that he tried to flush down the toilet in order to hide the evidence. We should be scared of how stupid this is, the last thing we need is Florida crocodiles with nukes running around...

Really, after this recap of events, what can you say about this Warner Bros star other then "Get him off the streets!" It's truly a shame but we are noticing a trend that the stars cast to work for WB on the DCEU, at least 50% of them, are really struggling. Either with being a part of the DCEU or a part of society in general. Do you have any theories as to what's happening here? I guess the only fitting notion is that the actor cast as The Flash is 'running' a muck. Share and subscribe, it'll r...

Are you afraid of ghosts? Have you been witness to the supernatural? Do you know who you'd call? If you answered yes, yes, and Dan Ackroyd in that order you are correct! I spent the night in a haunted hotel and lived to tell the tale. Although I've been around when others have felt the cold touch of the supernatural, I have yet to experience it. Maybe you're different? We look into what makes a spook and the places that are most famously haunted. If you're enjoying what you hear, tell a friend o...

We don't want to weigh-in on who is right or wrong and who is telling the truth or who is guilty but we are entertained by the show and hope you are entertained too. These 2 met while filming The Rum Dairies and their marriage seems to have been even more hectic than the fiction in that film.

Some people just have no respect... I really didn't know much about Colson Baker before this episode, I just knew I didn't like him. That was unfair, I think it's always good to make educated opinions. After researching, listening to his music and watching interviews I can confidently say - I still don't like him. It's not because he seems like a poser, jumping from genres of music. I think there's nothing wrong with that. Listen to this weeks episode to learn our grievances with Mr. Baker and w...

Your favourite Canadian National Treasure talks about one of the worlds treasures Nick Cage! A man with many names and personas who can do no wrong (statistically speaking anyways). His lifetime batting average is hall of fame status and as you can hear, we really like it (mostly). This is hard one because there are ups and downs but I think that's one of the things that makes our subject human, his imperfections. Really, aren't we all routing for the underdog? Sure, he's a Coppola, and really h...
