Kornflake

It’s movie night in Chickentown once again, because Kornflake waited a quarter of a century to see one of Kevin’s all-time favorites, 1993’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. So while chomping on some festive pizza pie, we watch this festive stop motion-animated classic from Tim Burton and Henry Selick, and discuss. Mentioned

Flopcast episode 340! It’s mid-November, but we’re still discussing our Halloween activities. (The Flopcast is as timely as ever.) Including: Halloween parties, a Halloween concert, a Halloween wedding, underwater pumpkin carving, the worst candy, road trips through Connecticut and Vermont, jug bands, sea lions, a chicken-themed cidery, a pug-themed restaurant,

Flopcast episode 339! Grumpy old music fans, rejoice! It’s time for our annual review of the nominees for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! This is a fun list, including one of Kevin’s all-time favorites (Devo, at last), and one of Kornflake’s all-time least favorites (sorry, Stevie Nicks). Hey,

Flopcast episode 338! Kevin reports from one of our favorite local geek conventions (now back in its beloved original location), Super Megafest!

Flopcast episode 337! It’s National TV Talk Show Host Day, which makes us realize we don’t really watch TV talk shows anymore. Let’s move on. Next we have a long-delayed edition of Chickens in the News, in which an Australian chicken helps to build a sidewalk. Hey, maybe someday the

Flopcast episode 336! This week we conclude our look back at last month’s concert by After These Messages, a weird new band (Kevin is the lead singer, sort of) that only plays TV theme songs, and may never play again. (You’re welcome!) The second half of the concert included plenty

Flopcast episode 335! That show we’d been plugging for months finally happened, and the town of Haverhill, Massachusetts will never be the same. Kevin (your Flopcast co-host) was joined by Ed (his tricky partner from The Sponge Awareness Foundation), Mike (from Vortex, Tricycle, and more), and Carl (from Duck Duck,

Flopcast episode 334! This week we celebrate Elisabeth Shue’s birthday, and consider dressing up like a shower to take her to a Halloween dance; Kornflake reports on her August movie (we’re a little late), When Harry Met Sally; there’s a new Mystery Science Theater 3000 comic book, just as the Mads

Flopcast episode 333! It’s Flopcast movie night! All year long, Kornflake has been catching up on movies she should have seen long ago. So this week we watch and discuss one of Kevin’s favorite movies from back in 1991, The Commitments. (Because if you want to experience genuine soul music… you

Flopcast episode 332! It’s our end-of-summer spectacular! (Disclaimer: May not actually be spectacular, but it’s all we have…) Kornflake visits a zoo and amusement park, spends quality time with capybaras (they’re giant rodents!) and weird birds (they’re weird and they’re birds!), appreciates elephants, gets kicked out of bounce houses, and

Flopcast episode 330! We’re busy at DragonCon this week, but the podcast must go on! So we prepared this silly little show in advance, just for you. And what could be sillier than flipping through another old issue of Dynamite magazine? We selected an issue from 40 years ago based on the
