Flopcast 408: 1980 TV Part 1 – Sparky and Corky

While Kornflake is off entertaining the nerds of Minnesota at MarsCon, Kevin and the Mayor discuss obscure TV shows from forty years ago. (We’re quite timely around here.) Specifically we’re looking at shows that debuted in the year 1980. And it’s a weird list. Weirder than you think. Including: Spinoffs

Flopcast 407: FlopFight Part 2 – I’m Your Private Dentist

Flopcast episode 407! Time to finish what we started (and instantly regretted) last week: A ridiculous Flopcast tournament of 1980s pop stars, as we celebrate the 35th anniversary of USA for Africa and “We Are the World.” We’re still picking the players and the events at random, so anything could

Flopcast 406: FlopFight Part 1 – There Comes a Hippo

Flopcast episode 406! Remember when we made all the Rankin/Bass holiday cartoon characters compete in a bizarre tournament of our own design? Wasn’t that fun? And stupid? Well, grab a beverage and place your bets, because we’re trying that again. This time we’re celebrating the 35th anniversary of USA for

Flopcast 405: What About the Gizzard?

Flopcast episode 405! A couple of important and/or ridiculous updates in this quick little show… starting with a MarsCon update from Kornflake! (Get ready, geeks of Minnesota. In less than a month, Kornflake is bringing you a new album, a concert performance, and Dementia Water Aerobics…) Then we have a

Flopcast 404: Movies With the Mayor

Flopcast episode 404! It’s Oscar season, and we don’t care about the Oscars, but it’s an excuse for the Mayor of Chickentown to drop by and talk about the movies. However, we’re not really looking at the movies themselves; instead we’re discussing the experience of going to movie theaters. (It’s

Flopcast 403: Arisia 2020 – Space Trains and Beaks

Flopcast episode 403! Live from the horrifyingly cold mid-January Boston waterfront, it’s our annual report on our favorite local science fiction/fantasy convention, Arisia! Kevin was locked in for all four days of Arisia, moderating discussion panels, meeting the awesome costumed people, and just observing all the glorious geekery. Meanwhile Kornflake

Flopcast 402: Memorial Show Part 2 – Squirrels in Space

Flopcast episode 402! Okay, let’s wrap up our tribute to the pop culture legends we lost in 2019. (We’ve been drinking so many shots in their memory that we’re almost out of coffee. And that frightens us.) Part 2 includes more movie stars (Peter Fonda, Sid Haig, Danny Aiello), sitcom

Flopcast 401: Memorial Show Part 1 – Monkee, Wookiee, and Muskrat Love

Flopcast episode 401! You know we do this every year… yes, it’s the first of our two-part look back at all the pop culture legends we lost in 2019. And yeah, a couple of our favorite Peters (Tork and Mayhew) are on this year’s list, along with stars from TV

Flopcast 400: It’s 2020! Krazbit!

Yes yes yes, it’s our 400th episode! To celebrate, we’re drinking lots of black coffee. (Hey, it worked for the first 399 shows.) We’re also reviewing how we spent the stupid holidays, including a couple of festive movies (Knives Out and the new Star Wars, which needed more Bea Arthur), a couple

Flopcast 399: The Year in Flopping

Flopcast episode 399! As we creep up on the end of 2019, Kevin and Kornflake relax and look back on the whole stupid year. We review our Flopcast segments (Capes or Apes!) and guests (Train Talk with Ed!), as well as concerts (Taylor Dayne! TAYLOR DAYNE!), conventions (hey, Arisia returns

Flopcast 398: Rankin/Bass Christmas Tournament Part 2 – Big Clumsy Snow Hands

Flopcast episode 398! Last week was Part 1 of our bizarre Rankin/Bass tournament, in which characters like Rudolph, Snow Miser, and Burgermeister Meisterburger competed in events like breakdancing and air hockey. The results were surprising, to say the least. This week, eight more Rankin/Bass characters are randomly drawn to do
