Kevin and the Mayor of Chickentown are back from Atlanta with a full report on DragonCon, where they joined all the masked and vaccinated nerds for a long silly Labor Day weekend. They had a busy schedule of panels, presentations, and events, and our discussion includes: The Suicide Squad, Smallville, Doctor Who, Pennyworth, DragonCon
Our ten-part celebration of the 80s brings us back to 1987 this week. For most of us, 1987 means Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise… and that’s all. But the year had even more to offer, if you poke around enough. So first we take a quick look at

Flopcast episode 486! DragonCon, our very favorite annual gathering of the geeks, was a virtual-only event last year. But this year we’re creeping back down to Atlanta and doing it for real! It’ll be (mostly) business as usual: five days of nonstop panels, concerts, gaming, costumes, and all manner of

Welcome to our TENTH annual summer robot Top 4 ½ List! (It’s an odd tradition, but it’s all we have.) This year’s theme is… 80s robots. Of course, lots of notable 80s robots have appeared on previous lists, so they’re not included this time (sorry, Johnny 5) to make room
Flopcast episode 483! We’re celebrating 1983, which the history books already call “the year of Mr. Roboto, and not much else.” But we did notice that a bunch of actors who played comic book characters (Spider-Man, Thor, Superman, Lois, Luthor, Wonder Woman, and more) were born that year. And we

Flopcast episode 482! We’re up to 1982 in our series of 80s-themed episodes, and it’s time to review another Facts of Life backdoor pilot! This one looks eerily similar to a previous backdoor pilot, as the boys of Stone Academy get another shot at a spinoff series! But this time instead of
Flopcast episode 481! Our ten-part series about the 1980s continues with a look at all the TV shows that debuted in 1981!
