Episode 57! Con season is upon us! Bryce and Bryan revved up slowly and gently to Wondercon 2025 by first visiting a pop up for Gundam and Gunpla, then the next week went to The Inland Empire Strikes Back!, a small but excellent Star Wars convention.
With the convention just days away, there's planning to do! What panels to see? Is there merch to be on the lookout for? When are we gettin...

Sneaky Geek is talking about anime again, and this time it's not just pokemon. Join us on this episode of Sneaky Geek as we dive into the unique intersection of black culture and anime, especially through the lens of music. We're excited to chat with Dr. Marcus Norris, director of the South Side Symphony, about how black music has influenced popular anime series like City Hunter, Jujutsu...
It’s a kaiju podcast! This week we are talking with John Hazlett yet again but this time its not about his time curating Star Wars history, and is instead about his love of the King of all Monsters, Godzilla! Godzilla, or Gojira as they call him in the streets, has been destroying cities since the 50s, and during that time his films have gone from poignant anti-WMD narratives to gigantic...
Star Wars: Tales of The Empire is a week away! We're so excited for this follow up to Tales of the Jedi. So we decided we needed ANOTHER trailer breakdown!
So we broke the trailer down, frame by frame, to find every reference, Easter egg, or sneaky recut that we could.
We also talk about hopes for the series, how it might tie in to Ahsoka, Mandalorian and Grogu, and everything else a-bre...
Wondercon is one of our favorite cons, it's far less daunting than SDCC but still packs a punch.
This years Wondercon took place on a rainy Easter weekend, and it had some interesting affects on our usual con experience. But that didn't stop us from seeing great panels like Her Universe with Ashley Eckstein, Star Trek Discoveries season 5 premiere, or The War of Rohirrim panel!
Joining u...
At 8am on March 19th, 2024, Lucasfilm dropped the trailer for their newest Star Wars show, The Acolyte. It featured intense fight scenes, a whole lot of lightsabers, and a new threat we haven't yet seen!
This whole show takes place a hundred years before Anakin told Sebulba he was going to be bugsquat (sleemo), and that means it's during The High Republic!
What is The High Republic? What...
This week we are honored to have former Wookiepedia Bureaucrat, writer, and Legends afficionado John Hazlett on the podcast!
Lucasfilm is a few years into its multi-media storytelling initiative, "The High Republic." Since it's going strong, we wanted to ask John if he had seen any of these stories before and whether this era in Star Wars overwrites any of the old canon. He had some fasc...

"Let's split that Blue Beetle episode into two parts!" Bryan and Bryce said excitedly.
Our comic historian Dave Ziegler is back again with us this week as we get to the second part of our Blue Beetle History.
Then we talk about what we're reading for a while.
Maybe those "what are you reading?" bits should be their own episodes at this point... Hmm... What was I saying? Oh yeah, I was te...
The whirlwind blur of SDCC has come and gone.
Bryan and Bryce try to piece together what exactly happened and when after only a week of being back home.
After-parties, panel cancellations, signings, trailer drops and so much more happened! Have a listen and do your best to follow along. Let us know in the comments what you thought of Comic-Con this year!
...The long awaited second half of our WandaVision episode is finally here!
Obviously, after so many current and up-to-date episodes, the best thing to do would be to keep our momentum going with an episode about something that was totally relevant two years ago
You're welcome for our genius career move to let you hear something recorded about a character who isn't even in current MCU thing...
Bonus episode!
We know it's off schedule but Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny came out last week and we felt compelled to do a quick review! This is Harrison Ford's swan song for his clearly preferred franchise.
We happened to like the film very much so don't expect a ton of complaining from us.
The Illumination Super Mario movie was great, but before Mario could run with his arms stretched out wearing a tanuki costume, Bob Hoskins had to drunkenly walk with a couple of broken fingers, in weird shoes, next to John Leguizamo, also drunk... and with a fractured leg...
and through that pain, we got the truest form of art.
We caught up with our Video Game Historian, Nick Fratto to t...
