Flopcast episode 357! Here we go, kids! Time to flip though another goofy old issue of Dynamite magazine! (It’s a Flopcast tradition, especially when we have to wait until next week for Kornflake’s MarsCon report.) This is a 1978 Dynamite, and the cover story is, “The Bee Gees vs. The Beatles: Who’s the
Flopcast episode 356! We’ve been threatening to do a whole show about creepy songs for quite a while… and here we are. The history of pop music is just lousy with inappropriate songs, and this week we’re counting down our favorites (?) in a very creepy Top 4 ½ List.
Flopcast episode 355! In our first official installment of Kornflake On the Road, Kornflake checks out Chris’s Comics in Seabrook, New Hampshire, and we recall the first comic book shops we ever visited. (We recommend Starship Excalibur in Providence, Rhode Island, assuming you can get yourself back to 1984.) Our
Flopcast episode 354! It’s a short show, because Kornflake called in sick, and the rest of us should have. But Kevin and the Mayor of Chickentown are still here, all miserable and confused, for a quick goofy conversation. Subjects include: The big Doctor Who convention, Gallifrey One! (Hey, isn’t the Mayor supposed
Flopcast episode 353! It’s miserably cold here in Chickentown, and we just can’t take it anymore, but we still managed to prepare a goofy little show for you. Including: Kevin reviews The Van, a dreadful 1977 movie with Danny DeVito (and a weird Brady Bunch connection)! Kornflake has questions about yacht rock! (Don’t
Flopcast episode 352! Once again we braved the horrifying winter weather to cover Arisia, Boston’s long-running (30 years!) science fiction and fantasy convention. We were there for you. (We were also there because we’re huge geeks.) This year’s report features: A weird new hotel! Why Kornflake couldn’t be there! Kevin’s
Flopcast episode 351! Just a big weird mix of stuff this week, including: Patton Oswalt’s birthday, the Big Chicken in Atlanta, storytelling at The Moth, the 100th anniversary of Boston’s Great Molasses Flood (as observed by our friends The Great Molasses Flood), another round of Capes or Apes (featuring some
Flopcast episode 350! This week we wrap up our tribute to all the pop culture stars we lost in 2018. (And just in time, since our 2019 list is already growing…) From the music world, we say goodbye to a Cranberry, a Bay City Roller, way too many drummers, the
Flopcast episode 349! As we start a weird new year, it’s time to look back at all the pop culture legends we lost in 2018. Now last year’s memorial show turned into our longest episode ever; we were so dizzy and confused that we almost forgot to stop. So this
Flopcast episode 348! A goofy new year means goofy New Year’s Resolutions for your Flopcast hosts! Kornflake intends to hit the road and explore strange new places, possibly in a talking dune buggy. Meanwhile Kevin’s plans might be more vague, but they’re no less weird. Stick around for a ridiculous
Flopcast episode 347! For our final show of 2018, we’re just relaxing in the studio, enjoying our crazy black coffee, and looking back at a long strange year of Flopcasting. This year we covered a bunch of conventions (while dressed like Cloris Leachman, of course), even more concerts (yes, we
Flopcast episode 346! It’s a quick holiday music-themed show to get you through Christmas week, featuring a Top 4 ½ List of Kornflake’s favorite Christmas cover songs! (Kevin didn’t bother making a list, but he did check Kornflake’s list. Twice.) You’ll know some of these acts (Hall and Oates make
