Flopcast episode 542! Let’s wrap up our review of our long wacky weekend in Atlanta for DragonCon! Including: More Sci-Fi Explosion (with Fonzie, Spider-Woman, and maybe even Robolar from Mars); more Flash Gordon panels with Sam J. Jones and Melody Anderson; the return of the Manimal Panimal; the cast of Doom Patrol; the
Flopcast episode 541! We survived DragonCon 2022, more or less, so it’s time to review the first half of that wacky weekend! Including: Kevin’s Flash Gordon panel with Sam J. Jones and Melody Anderson; Kevin’s other panels on Cowboy Bebop, Lost in Space, and Upload; The Mayor’s Severance panel (and Severance costume!); Kornflake’s Elton John panel; Sci-Fi Explosion fun
Flopcast episode 540! We’re back from DragonCon, but not quite ready for our DragonCon review show. (Hey, we were surrounded by Yip-Yips for several days. Readjusting to reality is a process.) Meanwhile, we have this special episode previously available only to ESO Network Patreon members. And the subject is appropriate,
It’s DragonCon weekend! So while we’re flopping around our favorite convention, please enjoy the return of Movies With the Mayor! This time Kevin and the Mayor of Chickentown are watching and discussing the 1987 made-for-TV movie The Spirit! It’s based on Will Eisner’s classic Golden Age comic book character, and it
With DragonCon just days away, here is your guide to finding Team Flopcast at the convention! Kevin will be absurdly busy as usual (that’s how we like it), appearing on panels and presentations about old stuff (1978’s Dr. Strange, 1979’s Legends of the Superheroes), new stuff (the sci-fi comedy series Upload, and the
Flopcast episode 537! Laverne & Shirley actress Cindy Williams turns 75 this week, which inspired Kornflake to surprise Kevin with a Laverne & Shirley pop quiz! (This is why the kids love The Flopcast.) Can Kevin identify quotes from various characters, despite not having seen the show in literally decades? And is there
Flopcast episode 536! We’re getting ready for DragonCon, the biggest craziest nerdfest of the year! It’s so big that it’s divided into dozens of separate programming tracks, and we’re going through the whole track list. Including: Kevin’s favorites (American Sci-Fi Classics! American Sci-Fi and Fantasy Media!), Kornflake’s favorites (Brit Track!
Flopcast episode 535! It’s a super-short super-silly summer show! Kevin is exhausted and weirdly terrified of movie trailers; Kornflake is baking and flopping on a hammock; it’s Book Lovers Day, and our friends are writing too many really good books; we’re preparing for DragonCon with School House Rock and Electra
Flopcast episode 534! Over the years, there have been more comic book series based on TV shows than you’d think. Back in the 60s, if your newsstand was sold out of Batman comics, you could still read My Favorite Martian or Petticoat Junction comics, you lucky kid. This week we’re diving into the weird world of
Martha is talking all about squids: giant squids, colossal squids, and even the Kraken. Then Brittany returns to world of anime to discuss the super-cute cat/rabbit/spaceship combo creature Ryo-Ohki from Tenchi Muyo! Recorded on the Fourth of July, and you’ll hear Las Vegas fireworks in the background to prove it.
Flopcast episode 533! Taylor Dayne is still telling it to our hearts; Maya Rudolph is a Rental; West Virginia is overrun by surfing chickens; and thanks to the DragonCon American Sci-Fi Classics Track, Mork and Mindy are now soldiers of fortune. It’s a short show, but it’s a goofy show.
Flopcast episode 532! It’s the middle of stupid summer, so here in Chickentown, it’s time for more hot robot talk. But we’ve turned our annual robot-themed Top 4 ½ List over to a special guest: it’s Chris, creator of the wonderful show Sci-Fi Explosion! (Having someone else make the robot
