Flopcast episode 204! While every other podcast is busy reviewing Batman v Superman, we know what the people really want.

Flopcast episode 203! A sleepy Mayor of Chickentown joins Kevin and Kornflake for a round of “What’s in the Bag?” featuring Batman and lobsters (our two favorite things); in perhaps our all-time stupidest National Whatever Day, we learn about Chinese gooseberries, and how Kornflake really feels about produce managers; Kevin
Flopcast episode 202! Get ready to party, kids — it’s National Button Week. (Which one of your Flopcast co-hosts had New Kids on the Block buttons, and which had Men at Work and Air Supply buttons? The world may never know…) Then during our Pudding Pages segment, Siri is horribly

Flopcast episode 199! This week we’re talking with novelist (The Perfect Comeback of Caroline Jacobs), storyteller (The Moth), and podcaster (Boy vs. Girl) Matthew Dicks!

Ladies and gentlemen, for one night only on Earth Station One, the Blues Brothers Rhythm and Blues Revue! Forty years ago this year, Jake and Elwood put together a band that revived an entire genre of music and was the basis for a comedy classic film for the ages. Mike,
Mike, Mary, and Alan Siler return from their West Coast adventure to report on the 2016 Gallifrey One gathering. Mike and Jen join the rest of the crew to discuss a different adventure in which the Third Doctor faces his greatest fears.
Flopcast episode 198!
